Couples Share the Moments They Knew They Wanted to Get Married

Some people say they believe in love at first sight. Personally, I’ve always been a bit suspicious of the notion.

Sure, we all get infatuated with someone upon introduction from time to time, and maybe occasionally that will lead to a lasting relationship, but it’s at least as likely that it will fade as you get to know them, or not be reciprocated, etc etc.

I think the real moments that we know someone is “the one” are a little less magical and a little more magically mundane than that, and they usually come after a long time spent together.

Let’s see if these confessions from real couples can back me up on that.

10. Being everything

Find someone who can’t help but build you up.

9. The healing

If all it takes is being silly I oughta be drowning in love.

8. Just watch

When your world is small but beautiful.

7. The goof

Somewhere between sensual and silly.

6. Fearless protector

It’s hard to feel safe after something like that.

5. Time out

Hey man, rules are rules.

4. The con job

I…really need to know more details about how this worked, exactly.

3. Hit it

Find someone who shares your passions.

2. Blue jeans

That magic kiss that seals the deal.

1. Spider man

Did you share a rainy upside down kiss though?

Have you had a “I’m gonna marry this person” moment?

What was it? How did it work out?
