How Did You Know He Was The One?

There was never really that moment where it all of a sudden struck me that "This is the guy I want to spend the rest of my life with", it was a cumulation of events. He kind of grew on me slowly from the first moment we started communicating. We met on an online dating site and he wasn't really the type of guy I normally went for (I'll admit, I had a thing for bad boys). But none of my previous relationships really went anywhere and I decided to give him a chance. We e-mailed back and forth for about a month, talked on the phone for awhile, stuff like that. I got some really bad news one day about a friend who was in Afghanistan (he didn't die, but some stuff happened) and I was really upset and my boss told me to leave work early because I was crying so much. That night my current bf called and asked me to meet him for coffee. We met for coffee and ended up talking for 5 hours, and things just kept gettin better and better. He's still different from any guy I've ever dated but in a good way. He does something every day that shows he really cares about me, and I fall more and more in love all the time.

I remember the first time he met my parents was when we went to my house for Thanksgiving break. The whole week went great and on Thanksgiving, after everyone had gone to bed we were curled up on the couch watching a movie and I can remember thinking I could be with him the rest of my life. Everything just felt so comfortable and right.

"I knew he was the one when we went to a UFC fight and he could do a 50 second keg stand."
Someone seriously told FI that one time about the new BF. FI's reponse? "I can do 51."

We were camping last summer, and I realized that I didn't have to think about it anymore. It was a no brainer, he was it.

Theres been so many different moments it hard to pin point them all.
there was the time when we first started talking again that he said i would never see him cry since it was a sign of weakness. one day, after he had a death in the family, he came over and cried right into my shoulder. i knew that he let his guard down for me because i was one who knew everything about him, even more than his parents. it showed me that he was not ashamed to show me who he was inside opposed to the hard guy who had no emotion but humor. plus he stayed with me thru my worst of times, he would hold me till i fell asleep, then go home (before we started staying together) and leave me cute text messages to wake up to in the morning.

i think what really hit me was when he got into an accident while working on the job. he needed to go to the ER, had some head trauma and i knew if i would have lost him that day, i wouldnt know what to do with my self. i knew i couldnt live a day without him. he is my best friend and has been since sophmore year in high school, we graduated in 07 and i knew then deep down what i know now, he just is
