    Not long after we met! I was 19 and he was 26 and we spent EVERY waking moment together. Got engaged 11 months to the day after we met, married six months later and will celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary in two months, along with our 3 kiddos! LOVE that man!!!

    Had a hunch the first time i saw his smiling face through the window of the door to my apartment building. Something was.... deeply, deeply, different.

    The moment I felt I was able to tell him about a very private issue in my past, and how he didn't pass any judgement.

    I love him with all my heart.

    On the night we met - we were 17 years old and it was a blind date, although neither one of us admitted it at the time. We got engaged on our 6 year "blind date" anniversary , married on our 8th, and have been together 20 years this past September!

    I knew before we started dating. I was actually married to someone else, he was a friend of a friend. I realized he was the one, left my then husband and moved back home with my parents all within a week. The week after that we met up with friends and while I was drunk I accidentally told him I loved him. I was horrified that I had said anything at all. We've been together 9 years, married for 7 and have 3 children together and he's been raising my daughter from my first marriage since she was 1 1/2 years old.

    I probably had a feeling sooner, but after dating maybe 3 months, we went on our first weekend away together, and I flipped his Quad on the ice in northern Michigan, cracking 4 ribs. After thinking I was OK, then drinking, sitting in the hot tub for an hour and taking a nap, I couldn't even stand up.. He had to help me shower, dress me and take me to the hospital (where my ribs proceeded to BREAK when I was laid down on the x-ray table). The way he handled that whole situation and took care of me was my first major sign that this guy was "THE ONE" :love:

    Don't get me wrong though...there are still days I'd like to kick him in the balls....:laugh:

    6months in and still don't know whether she is

    I'd stop wasting both of your time...if you don't know by now...she isn't the one.

    I wish I would have listened when someone told me that during my last relation. I kept waiting for it to click, it never did. So much happier now that I moved on

    The first day. We were engaged within days(3-4 I think), I got my ring the second week and then 11 months later we were married. We will be celebrating our 12th wedding anniversary in January. I think what really made it work is that we jumped in with both feet and never played games with each other. Love is a risk whether you wait 1 day or 10 years its either there or its not.

    So true! I know people that got married after being together 10 years and were divorced a year later I also know people who have been together forever and only dated for a little while.

    For me-I knew pretty much when I looked him up 10 years after we met (we met at 18) and we were both still single. It was confirmed on our first date which lasted about 10 hours

    My husband and I met online and I had just gotten out of a 7 year relationship and was looking for a fling. We had been chatting online for a couple of days when he asked for my phone number. I remember telling a coworker that day, "this guy I met online is supposed to call me tonight and I am not very excited about it." We ended up on the phone that first night for 9 hours and the next weekend he drove 10 hours just to spend a day and a half with me. That pretty much sealed the deal. That was 6 years ago.

    When my husband and I met, he was gushing about how happy he was to meet me. He said, "What are the odds of finding someone like you? Maybe 1 in 20!" He was serious too! At the time, I was sort of hurt, but I've come to understand what he was saying. There are lots of people with whom you can be compatible.

    By the way, we've been together 23 years, and we laugh about this still.

    James & I were "just friends" for more than 6 months before I admitted we were in a relationship. I was coming off a failed 5.5 year relationship & didn't wish to jump into something else so soon. Two months in to our "friendship," he admitted he wondered what our children would be like (so smart they would either take over the world or they wouldn't be able to talk - a sense of humor is hugely important!); this astonished me even though I wouldn't admit we were dating for another 4 months. Fastforward to a year after we met, I got an amazing career opportunity, told him I was moving across Texas to take the job, & didn't do LD relationships but it's been fun. When I came back about a month later to pack my apartment, he told me he'd been looking his whole life for a woman who didn't ask him what she should do but told him what she was going to do. I thought on this for another couple of months - this man wants a loud, opinionated, know-it-all woman (ME to a T)?!?! I finally told him I loved him when I came back to town, to which he replied, "I know." Fifteen months in all it took me to realize just how completely perfect we are for one another; he knew at 2 months. His patience speaks volumes to the kind of man he is and what kind of father he will be to our children. We started shopping for engagement rings last week. <3

    A week into knowing him.
    It did, however, take us five years before we started dating. We'd both held the crush for that long, but neither of us realized the other felt the same. Then it just... clicked.
    Been with him since for another five.

    For her it seems it was almost instantaneous after reading an entire paragraph about my 'ideal woman' and seeing my amazing grammar. For me it took like 2 years cuz I'm a man.

    My wife and I dated for 8 years before we got married. We were high school sweethearts and we made it through college. I think it took me longer to realize she was "the one". I think she knew after 2 years of college. I think I knew shortly after that because she was more than just my girlfriend at that point, she was my best friend and I didn't want to lose my best friend.
    I love this!!!!

    I was pretty sure she was special on our first date. I knew the second date. I proposed to her within a month. Just celebrated our 20th anniversary. Not sure what she see's in me, but she was the best choice I ever made.

    This is cute and almost exactly what my husband says (except we havent been married that long).
    I was pretty sure she was special on our first date. I knew the second date. I proposed to her within a month. Just celebrated our 20th anniversary. Not sure what she see's in me, but she was the best choice I ever made.
    We were friends for a few years then he got drunk at my house and told me he had feelings for me. After that, it didnt take long. My husband swears it was the first night he stayed overnight (even though nothing happened). For me, Im not entire sure of the exact moment but there was no question when he presented me with the ring a few months later.

    I knew he was special the minute I saw him. Being gun shy, I kind of kept things to my self. He proposed after 3 months. I made him wait over a year (I could not believe my good fortune and wanted to make sure I wasn't rebounding). Over 30 years now, he was worth the wait.

    First date. I made it a point to know how to spell my husband's last name because I knew we would spend the rest of our lives together. Went through some rocky times during the dating process, but here we are together for 14yrs, married for going on 10. :heart:

    A few months in, I'd guess. We've never been to apart the last 12 years...with the highs and lows, we knew we had to be with eachother. And here we are =)

    37 years together and I'm still not sure. But we're too stubborn to admit we might have been wrong.

    Honestly, we're about as opposite as two people can be. We can't even fold a sheet together without him starting in one direction and me going the other.

    Love the sheet comment. I'm a lefty he's a righty- all kinds of joint projects get a bit mixed up LOL

    My husband and I started seeing each other on July 5th. From that first night on, I never had to call him. He ALWAYS called me when he said he would. And he called me all the time. Called me in the morning to wish me a good day, called me at his lunch break, called when he got home to see if I had any plans, called me after he finished dinner. If he said he was going to call, he did.

    One evening while we were out on a date, we discussed how long it would take to know if someone was "the one". He said it shouldnt be a problem to know after dating someone 3 months. I knew within a month, I think he did too. But on our 3 month "anniversary" I sent him a text that said, "So.... do you know?" His response, " yeah, I think I know". First weekend in December he proposed and we've been married for just over 6.5 years, the happiest years of my life!

    How long after being with your s/o did you realize that that they were "the one"? And was it something they did, said, or just you?

    We've been together since July 2011. At the end of September this year, he asked how I felt if we were engaged by the end of next year. That made it so real for me, was scary at first but then I realized that this is what I wanted and couldn't imagine spending my life with anyone else. :)
