my cousin just got married last weekend and they looked like the happiest couple i'd ever seen...i've been dating my boyfriend now for 2 years...but i just cant see me getting married...right now anyway, maybe its just the timing..or maybe i'm afraid of commitment..i'm 21 and still in college that could have something to do with it, he's pretty much my first everything, and though I cant imagine being without him....we dont bring up the future often..both of us are just sort of living in the moment, seeing where things go..and if marriage comes up we dont talk much about it...i just say i'm not ready and neither is he...anyway...how did you know the person you found was it for you? did you know from the moment you met, or was it something that just happened?

I met my hubby when we were 16. I like him as a friend but was never really attracted to him in that way. Our friendship continued and was rock solid from day 1. When I was 19 he came over for a visit. I cannot tell you why this happened other than it being love. I saw him for the 1st time. He looked so amazing and gorgeous and I was shocked at how attracted and drawn to him I was. I mean I saw and talked to him all the time for 3 years already. It was like a feeling or a nudge deep inside of me that was completely aware and awakened by him. Shortly after that we began dating and it was like any new couple. Lust and hunger and happiness. We were already so close as friends that our feelings just increased. We dated for a month when he died.

I got a call that he was on life support and they didnt know if he would make it. He went into seizures from huffing butane, so it was drug induced. They had to shock him 4 times. he died and was brought back. he remained in a coma for 10 days and the doctors didnt detect any brain activity. We didnt know how he would come back.

I never felt so lost in my entire life. My heart was ripped out. Then I knew he was the one. God told me that he was going to be ok and that we still had time. I just couldnt understand why he would be taken when we just started to be together after all those years. So I had to lose my love to know he was the one.

he woke up after 10 days and didnt remember a week before the accident. He acted like a small child for 2-3 months. He was different than the man I fell in love with.

Its been 2 1/2 yrs since then and he is back to his normal self. His short term memory is pretty much shot. Other than that hes the same.

So thats how I knew. Cant wait to hear more stories!

It all depends on your chemistry with each other!
i have a friend who was in a relationship for a little over a year and they barely acted like they were together.
No communication,
no lust,
im not even sure if they said they loved each other.
On the other hand i just met my boyfriend about 4 months ago..and no i dont believe in love at first sight...but we definately had a mutual attraction.
we just clicked and it feels like we've been together for years.I really do love him..and some people find that hard to believe,but when you love somebody,you know it.So if you love this guy you'll know it.f your reconsidering your feelings about him,dont give up.You and him just may have to give it time to get to that level of love. & about the future and what not, I find it hard to talk about the future because i get scared of what will come.i really dont like to think about it because you never know what the future will bring and i dont want to see my life without him.I also dont want to talk about marriage and kids etc. because that is unrealistic to a certain extent...depending on your situation. For instance,im still in highschool and im scared to talk about the future because he may go to a different college and everything we have is shattered.But anyways,My advice to you is just that if you are wondering whether you love him or not,dont try to figure out the reasons why.It will just come to you and you will know!
