For those of you who are married/in love/in long term relationships.....

I'm not really sure when I knew that my wife was the one for me. I suspect that my first realization of this was the first time that I thought about the future and couldn't imagine her not being in it. All in all, I don't suppose it really matters when I knew that she was the one, only that she became the one.

I was wrong. I knocked her up. 3 kids and 9 years together. And she's not a pearl jam fan, which should have been strike one.

Not all us men are as emotionally and possibly cognitively advanced as your husband.

But from a statistical standpoint, what I'm saying has merit. When men think, emotions don't carry as much priority as they do with women. Left hemisphere vs. right hemisphere kind of stuff.

Of course there are exceptions. But, on average, women are more in tune with how they are feeling.

I dunno... this is my 4th 'proper' boyfriend... 3 of them told me they love me before I even felt it... with the 4th it was never said by either of us. so that's 3 out of 3 for me

I think I knew when I WANTED to do the boring stuff with him... going out for dinner, staying in hotels, walking along the beach, spoiling ourselves and eachother is all well and good... but the best moments are curling up on the couch watching a film or asking eachother how or day went... all the boring stuff. When you imagine being old and it actually doesn't seem that bad.
