Well it has been fun this week being BOTW, thanks for picking those #'s Adelz!!!


For my final question this week for all of you wonderful ladies is...

Tell us about the moment you just knew you were gonna marry this guy!! Sweet, funny, cute, romantic whatever it was how did you know?


I knew I was going to marry my FH on our 6 month anniversary, he took me out for a beautiful dinner in the city and stared talking about our future and all that stuff and my heart did a lil skip thinking he was gonna propose!!! I began to think and it dawned on me what if he did ask....I would say yes!!! He made me wait another 10 years to ask me almost to the day and at times I wanted to kill him for making me wait but It will be worth it when it finally happens!!

My FH and i did it a little backwards lol, we sort of dated in high school broke up then reconnected at a bar years later

we were dating for only 4 months offically when i found out i was pregnant, so we decided to move in together and try to make it work

i literally had the worse pregnancy ever between sickness, my levels being off, constantly telling me id be lucky if i carried the baby to full term and he was my rock...never showed a sign of weakness while i was crying all the time

oddly thats when i knew i would NEVER let him go, we had been through so much together and to know that he was putting on this strong front for me meant the world to me

i later found out he would cry to his mom after i went to work, but we always say that our son braydon who by the way was born perfectly healthy and only 3 weeks early saved us. It was god's way of telling us to stop the crap and the partying and start ur life together

A few months into our relationship, I had a very bad low blood sugar. I couldn't even speak properly- I was speaking gibberish.

And he called my mom to find out what to do, and when I came to he was in tears!

I knew at that moment that he would always take care of me when I need it most

He was away for like 3 straight weeks in summer 2004. We'd been together for less than a year at the time, but the second I saw his face when he returned I thought to myself that this was the man I want to be with for the rest of my life. We've been together for 7 years now, but the time passes so fast when you're with the one you're going to spend your life with

It was within the first week of knowing eachother. We went on a date Friday night, saw eachother again all day Saturday (had our first kiss which was magical ), stayed up till about 6am on Saturday/Sunday, then we saw eachother again on Sunday. I couldnt' get enough of him and vice versa. He wanted to make it official the first day but I played the hard to get game hah and made him wait a week. I told him I didn't want our anniversary to be 08.22.08, but rather 08.28.08 - which was dumb because it's 08.22.08 to this day hah. Anyhow, the third day, he surprised me with roses which was not expected but beyond precious. Everything about him felt right and I knew I couldn't live a day without him We also talked about marriage within the first week, so I figure that's a good sign hahah.

Semi new here and not frequent poster but good thread.

I ended a toxic relationship in Sept 05
decided to adopt and started paperwork Oct 05
docs logged in for adoption March 06
Met FH Feb 07
Adopted daughter from China solo June 08

2010 rough year; 3 of our parents serious health crises and I got to see his values in action. I knew I wanted to spend my life with him and of course he has an incredible bond with my daughter and he's been in her life since the day she came home.

I kinda always knew... but the real time it was solidified:

At the end of January of this year I had my gall bladder removed, semi-emergency. When I got home, my mom was trying to help me figure out where I should camp out to recuperate, and in doing so accidentally put pressure on my stomach (ow). He freaked the you-know-what out at her, and then my dad took him downstairs to talk to him. When he came back up, he just sat next to me, put his head on my shoulder, said 'don't ever do this to me again,' and cried.

That's when I knew.
