I knew from our first date that he was going to have a major impact on my life. We just clicked on our very first date and we could talk on the phone for hours. He said he knew he loved me after we dating me for 5 months but he was way too scared to tell me b/c he had never been in love before and he didn't want to blow it. Funny thing was, that I felt the same way and neither of us could tell each other until almost 4 months later. I can't pinpoint a moment when I knew, but almost 3 years later, we still give each other butterflies, the romance hasn't waned and I love him with all of my heart and soul....no matter what. He is my soulmate.

Re: How did you know...
Right away I thought that there was something about him that made me feel like he was 'the one' but it was deifnitely when my sister met him for the fitst time and she told me that he was the one. (she did not know that I already felt that way) I guess he just has that 'it' factor as well!!

Re: How did you know...
I knew from the moment we started dating. He was nothing but honest, genuine, and he was very family oriented just as I am. And besides that....I didn't give him any @ss for 6 months

Re: How did you know...
We had dated in High School and it didn't work out and we ended up friends. Then he started dating a girl who didn't like him having female friends and we lost touch. We met up again 5 years later, and had dinner. I knew as I looked at him across the table that I had the ONE in high school and I wasted so much time! I made sure he didn't go anywhere after that.

Re: How did you know...
we had our first & second date two nights in a row...because FH lived overseas & was in NY on business when we met on our blind date...i knew after our second date he was the one...i couldn't explain why and felt stupid for even thinking it...but I had basically given up on love & men before meeting him...and had narrowed down what i wanted in a man to only 'non smoker'..haha...when i met FH i realized he was all the things I had always wanted and thought I'd never find...

Re: How did you know...
When my FH and I started dating we were barely 15! I did not know what love was. I think it took 2 years after we started dating to fully understand it. He was in a terrible accident and when I went to see him, I realized that I could not imagine my life without him!

Re: How did you know...
I don't know exactly how and when I knew, but it was a combination of things. Mostly it had to do with his character and how he treated me. I knew he would adore me and treasure me the rest of my life. He was raised very well and it showed in his actions. We went away together for 4 days to D.C. last March after dating less than 1 month!! I remember being on that trip and noticing how everything was just so easy and comfortable with him. I felt completely myself with FH. I've never been truly myself in any relationship in the past. We had such a great time even driving there. It was just so natural. I love him!!

i knew from the very start! this was the first time I truly put it in God's hands, and He's the best matchmaker of all
DITTO!! I had to learn to trust God through a really heartbreaking break-up I went through not long before meeting FH. And once I put it in His hands, FH was there.

Re: How did you know...
I knew about 2 1/2 months into it. He sent flowers to the office for my birthday and it wasn't about the flowers, but I just got this overwhelming feeling of 'wow, this is the man I'm going to marry.'
He says he realized pretty early on too, but can't give me an exact time and date. LOL.

Re: How did you know...
After I met him, we hung out for awhile as friends before we went on an actual date. I had this weird feeling about him before we even went on our first date, which was Jan. 11th. I remember telling my mother right before Valentine's Day that I was going to marry him. Coincidentally, he told his parent's he was going to marry me on the same day (we had a special date that night and his mom wanted to know why he was so dressed up). Meanwhile, neither sets of parents had even met the new love yet!

Re: How did you know...
I knew when he was about to lose a friendship with his best friend who disapproved of our relationship to stay with me, he actually started crying to his friend to just be happy for him.....I thought it was the sweetest thing..

Re: How did you know...
FH and I have been friends for 10 yrs, best friends for 6. He thought we might start dating a few times over the years but, never did (mostly because I was in idiotic realtionships!) After my last relationship, he was always there and we almost got together last Jan but we had a few things we needed to work on with ourselves, six months later we went on vacation together and started dating. A month later we told each other we loved each other, then another month later he went to Ireland, I sat by the phone every minute of every day he was gone, waiting to hear his voice. It physically hurt when I missed his call. I knew then I never wanted to be w/o him!

Ditto to both comments! I remember our first date which I didn't know was a first date. We spent the whole day together and towards the end, he took me to a wine bar in Rockefeller Center. Of course I got tipsy there and as we walked out, I started to think that this was more than two friends hanging out so I put my arm through his arm and he grabbed my hand and locked it with his. We parted at the subway and had the sweetest kiss. I remember sitting on the 7 train with the stupidest grin on my face and calling my BF to tell her about this amazing guy I just went out with. Then we started talking on the phone almost every day for hours (DH hates the phone) and felt this really strong connection that neither of us had felt before. I can't pinpoint the exact time I knew he was the one but I made some comment to a friend of mine about us dating in the first three months and she was shocked that I would mention him in my long-term future. After we went to our second wedding together and I stayed at his parents house, something changed inside(perhaps divine intervention) that let me know that I really wanted him to be in my life forever and I didn't want to be part of the singles scene anymore. He also bought me the love cuff and I honestly had no idea what it was. But I went on the Cartier website and read about its meaning and the meaning of a necklace he bought for me and I realized he was just as serious as I was.
It's like so many other people said already, we're comfortable with each other and enjoy each other's company. He always puts me first and even though I sometimes think I should come above work, I know he truly cares for me and would do anything for me. And I for him.

Re: How did you know...
I knew I was in love with FH pretty quickly b/c it was so different from all of my past relationships. It was so natural.....I felt like we were already part of the same family. I also knew that he loved me b/c of the way he treated me and by how sensitive he is.....I knew that this is what I wanted in a life partner. I knw it was forever a few months into it......I really was getting to know him and I knew, for sure, that this was the real thing. No games...no torture....just a wonderful decent human being who was as crazy about me as I am about him.

Re: How did you know...
I knew right away. I was dating someone else when I asked him to dance, and looking back I think I loved him then. I just didn't know it it. The first real moment I knew was during my graduation. I looked across the table and he was sitting there and I knew I love him.

Re: How did you know...
Loaded question...hard to know exactly when but I know I felt it waaaayyy early cuz I never felt it that bad for someone before. Everytime I said goodbye to him it literally tore my heart out (we started long distance). We met online in a really surprising way...and I remember before we actually met in person we were having these conversations and I would literally feel my breath being taken away from me because we were on the same page about so many things...never experienced that sort of chemistry before- it was scary but so amazing!!!
