    You feel like your best version of yourself when you are with him. You have similar goals and lifestyles, and want similar things for the future. You have similar ways of handling money (if you don't, you're going to be fighting about it for your entire marriage!). He is supportive of your hopes and dreams, and you are supportive of his. You have known him long enough to have had time to observe his behavior in a variety of settings, and admire his character. His actions match his words (does he say he loves you but then screams and yells at you? If so, maybe think twice!). How does his father treat his mother? Remember, that is his role model for marriage!

    Yeah, that heart-pumping attraction has to be there, too. But don't let it sway you from looking at the issues of compatibility! Just because someone makes your heart throb doesn't mean he would make a wise marriage choice.

    Good luck!

    When you are attracted to them at first sight, then go through hell together.... Life's a *****...and sometimes she has puppies, ya know?
    But if you can still kiss and cuddle and fart in front of each other and laugh...
    Well, that's my experience, anyway...

    When they treat you the way you want to be treated. When I met the one, I knew that I would, in every situation, do right by her. When what I wanted came second. If he treats you like that, he's probably the ONE!

    When you feel so strongly for them that you feel like there is nothing that you can do that is good enough to express it, a dilemma that almost causes you pain

    Two words... Bathroom shenanigans....
    If both of you can deal with the others dirty deeds, you're set for life.

    Oh and when you swear at each other a lot, not in a hateful manner though.

    When you both share the same goal in life, the same things are important to you, and that person makes you want to be a better person.

    There is no perfect answer or fairytale ending. You'll know. Don't think it will always be rose petals and champagne.....

    I married the woman of my dreams 15 years ago. Still love her just as much today. And she loves me.

    Not a day goes by that I don't think about bouncing her skull off the fridge and dropping an elbow on her Randy Savage style....

    I am pretty sure she fights the urge to stab through my face with a machete each day also.....

    But we truly love each other.

    True love.

    When they turn your world upside down, but in the best way possible. When you can't stand the thought of being without them. When you realize that you would do anything and everything in your power to keep them safe and content. When the phrase "I love you" doesn't even begin to express what you feel for them. When you realize that they were the reason you were put on the planet. When you want to be the best person you can be, just for them.

    ....When you realize that they really are your better half. That without them, you're incomplete.

    Yep. Word for word.
