I can explain in length why I know Sam is that perfect person for me, but it is simple and does not need a long explenation.  

Its that gut feeling.  Its the feeling that just says its right and not to question it.  I knew it before we started dating, I know it now, and I will know it in 50 years from now.  We have our love story, our similarites and difference, but in the end it is that feeling. That feeling that tells me he is "the one." The one I will not question, because I already know its right.

My fiance is the one for so many reasons. I knew he was the one before we even started dating. I've known all along that he'd be the man I ended up marrying, even though we didn't go on a date for almost a YEAR after we met... We both had some growing up to do, but I just knew he'd be "it" for me. 

No matter how many mistakes I've made, he still stands by me. He always promises he will never leave, and that he will always be there for me, even if he's the only one left. He always pushes me to better myself, and he brings out only the best parts of me. He's the one because no matter how many times I can't stand him and he drives me nuts, the thought of living without him is unimaginable. He always supports me, whether it's emotionally or financially - and even though he complains sometimes that he has to go without something he might want, to help support us, he would still do it all over again, and I know he will always support our family. 

He works hard, he's my best friend, my better half, and the love of my life. I've never doubted for a minute that this is the right man for me, and I can't wait to marry him and make him happy for the rest of my life!

since we are getting married so young (i'm 23, he is 24...which i guess is young enough for people to wonder), i often get asked how i 'know'. i come from a divorced family, so i never ever wanted to get married. i never planned my wedding as a child or thought about flowers/gowns in high school. but when i got to college and met my fiance, my world was turned up side down.

we got connected a week after i broke up with my ex of 2.5 years...every year my sorority threw a male pagent (Greek God) to raise money for our philanthropy. in the pageant, each fraternity nominated members to compete against other fraternities for the title. since my room mate was the one organizing it, i told her i would help her out by being a coach/escort (i walk one guy across stage, wear a cute black dress, make sure his acts are appropriate, etc etc). I was ecstatic when i got matched with a member of my favorite fraternity, but i didn't know the brother at all, which was weird because i used to hang out with the fraternity every weekend. a few online conversations and one or two quick visits to the ice cream shop i used to work in had me hooked. I had a feeling that our relationship would strech far past this competition.

anyway, the weeks leading up to the competition we practiced his dance moves for the talent portion, reherased what he would say for the question portion, and carefully picked out his outfits. the night of the pageant came along, and while we didn't win, we spent so much time laughing and flirting neither of us really remembers the competition itself. 

we still look back at pictures of the event, there were a ton, and in each picture neither of us looking at the camera, we are staring at each other and laughing and smiling

that was in march of my sophomore year of college...the day before spring break of my senior year we finally got engaged! i say finally because i knew after a month of dating that i didn't want to waste my time on another boy ever again. we are now three years into our relationship and 2 weeks away from getting married and he still gives me the same butterflies as the very first time i met him. he makes me feel like i am the light of his life, and he is the only one i would ever want to promise to spend my life with. so when people ask how i know he's 'the one' i just smile really big and flash back to that night of the competition, and those little butterflies start flying around. that's how i know 

we're also having our first dance to this song

Dave is faithful, hard-working, fun and has a great sense of humor.  I like to travel more than he does, but he's always game to give things a try, and then usually has a great time.  I know I can always be myself when I'm with him.

We met when we were 16-- our moms and my aunt worked together and my aunt had a housewarming party. We stayed friends through high school and college- he went to school near our homes, and we'd visit over vacations. After college, I lived abroad, and realized home is where the heart is. We got together, and the rest is history

 can't get through to the web site Theknot.com. So here it is, I meet Sarah in Crestview, Fl. She had booked my Band The GRS Experience on Aug.8th 2008. I am Glen Vincent. I was the lead singer of the band, which I no longer sing in. I had had a few conversations with her on Myspace,but that was all. The first night in Crestview when I finally met her it was magicial. She had stolen my heart the first time she hugged me. It was that simple, I was lost in her eyes. But the band played on.....from 10 till 2am. Friday night was a great turn out of people from all over Crestview to Ft. Walton Beach. I sang cover songs like Rod Stuart (stay with me), Moroon 5 (won't go home without you) and even Ozzy (bark at the moon) and Judas Priest ( you got another thing coming) ! I am a very versitle singer. During one of the band breaks Sarah gave me a Zodiac necklace she had purchased at a flea market the day before. It was a Cancer Medalion! Funny because I am a Cancer! But what was even stranger was later that night when I went back to the Hotel(by myself mind you), I was looking closely at it. I turned it over and on the back of it was her name SARAH. That blew my mind, I called her and she did not belive me till the next night when I showed it to her before the band played on Saturday night. After the show, we spent the rest of the night talking(and feeding ducks) at a little park in Crestview till the sun came up. We just hit it off from there on. I knew she was a single mother of 3 little girls and to my suprise it didn't bother me. The next day me and the band headed back to Ocean Springs,Mississippi. I talked with her every day on the phone till I could not take it anymore, and within one week I quit my job at the Navy Shipyard, sold everything I had so I could get to her. I have been with her everyday since and have never been apart since. I love her and her girls more than anything. She is my everthing. And she belives in my music and supports every decesion I make. I am nothing without them.

Another thing that makes our meeting so magical is we meet on 8-8-08! Get it? Inifity!!!!!! Together,forever.

glenvincent

Sorry ,I spelled Infinity wrong. But she is and always will be my girl.

She is and always will be my Baby Girl! Sarah Anne and me,Glen, at Christmas 2010 Downtown Ocean Springs, MS.

My fiance is my unexpected hero. We were just friends, until one late night conversation. We were supposed to be studying, but instead we were talking about relationships. I mentioned that I had never had a boyfriend, and he seemed genuinely stunned. "Never?" he asked, shocked. "I don't think anyone's ever been interested." I replied. When I glanced back up at him, he was raising his hand, waving it back and forth enthusiastically. That night as he walked my back to my apartment, I surprised him with our first kiss.

He is always trying to surprise me. The night he asked me to marry him, he took me back to the dance hall where we had our first date, undeterred by the fact that it was closed because a flower show was scheduled for the next day. He talked me into going, then snuck into the back garden, coming back out with three roses: red, white, and pink. "The white one," he told me, "is you, and the past. The red one is me, and the present. The pink one is us, and our future together."

He loves making everyday moments special. One day, after going to class early in the morning, I came back to find my fiance in our room, holding a dozen red roses and a big blue RingPop, with Train's "Marry Me" playing softly on his computer. We spent the afternoon slowdancing.

My firnace is my friend, my love, and my soulmate. We make each other better.

I was always skeptical of online dating, but found myself one afternoon filling out an online profile due to a long string of disappointing dates and lack of time to meet guys the "normal way" while in grad school full time and working.  I was short on funds, so I put my email address in my free online profile to bypass having to pay the membership fee to talk to matches.  I got an email about ten minutes later saying my account had been deactivated due to breaking this rule.  I don't know what I had hoped to accomplish, but I walked away from my computer vowing to stop feeling sorry for myself and to concentrate on the good things in my life.

I received an email from Randy about an hour later saying he had seen my profile and noticed we shared the same interests of running, the outdoors, and love for using coupons.  I was confused as to how he got my email and later on our first date, we brainstormed that he must have been on at the exact moment I posted my profile.  That ten minute window proved to be long enough for me to find my soulmate!

We have been inseparable ever since our first date almost three years ago.  We have had our ups and downs, but always have been able to communicate how we feel about each other.  He supports me in my career and my crazy ideas on how to remodel our starter home with DIY online videos (sometimes they work and sometimes he just shakes his head).  I have supported him in his quest to obtain his masters degree, as well as improving his culinary skills.  We take pride in the normalcy in our life and would love nothing better to spend the day outdoors playing with our two puppies and dreaming about our future once we are married and continue the next leg of our lives. 

In a simple sentence...he is my home, my love, and my best friend.

How can you argue with fate? My fiance John and I were introduced on a blind date in 2008. After spending 11 hours in an amusement park just talking, one kiss goodnight changed our lives forever. We have been inseparable from that day forward, helping each other through thick and thin. From his mother and grandmother passing away, and my mother being diagnosed with Stage II Breast cancer we have been there for each other no matter what. We are engaged to be wed next april in NJ, and everytime i hear Train's new song "Marry Me" all I can do it sit and smile, b/c if he didnt have the courage to say hello that day we wouldn't be where we are today. We saw Train open for Bon Jovi @ Giants Stadium last may (2010) and this would be the opportunity of a lifetime to get to meet them and relive the magic!

Scott makes me laugh constantly.  Also, after 6 years of dating I still get butterflies.

My fiance is the one because no matter what I am going through he will hold my hand and tell me everything will be okay.  He lives two hours away, but I know if I ever need anything he will be by my side the entire time.  When he proposed, he asked for my parents' permission and asked for their blessings.  He comes to visit all the time and he met my godson recently and my godson went straight to him!  He is always "hogging" our niece, but it is too sweet that I can't help but let him hold her.  He surprises me all the time.  He still sends me a good morning text no matter what even if he sleeps til 2 in the afternoon.

I met Sam two years ago. Our relationship has been like a fairy tale since the moment we met. Our first date was on Valentine's Day and since everything was booked up, we went to our local mall, settled for Chinese food and boardwalk fries. Ever since that first date I've known he was the one. He's always making sure I'm taken care of and that I'm his number one priority. Even when we fight, we can't stay mad at each other for more than five minutes. He proposed to me two weeks ago over a plate over homemade breakfast foods, which again, shows how perfect we are for each other We plan on getting married by the end of the year and I honestly have never wanted anything more. Girls, I've gotten one of the lucky ones!

Dustin & Katherine

I have a 19 year-old brother, Chris, who has Fragile X Syndrome (kind of like autism). We almost lost him when he was younger because he could not gain weight; 26 pounds at the age of 10. I will be caring for him the rest of his life and mine, as will my future husband. The truth is, my brother is my best friend....

I could start out like everyone else....he is my other half. He is "the one" and I knew it the first time I met him. But to be honest....I didn't.
I had gotten out of a relationship a few weeks earlier and Dustin said he could see himself marrying me after only a few days of talking. I ran scared. I dated other people. I became myself.

Everyday....for almost a month....he wrote me every day. Dustin said he was thinking about me and hoped I was doing well. He came into my shop and ate lunch, even though the pleasantries of "hellos" and "how are yous" were about all that were exchanged. I realize it now, but didn't then. It was what every woman wants...the fairy tale of being chased.

We finally talked and our first date was to the movies; he got skittles and gave me all of the purple ones (well he tried his best since he is colorblind; there were a few red ones added in there). It was love at first skittle.

So why Train for us? As corny as it is....I came home from  a class project meeting to find dinner made. Then, HE suggested slow dancing, we started out with his humming then moved up to our song "Marry Me" (and ladies, let me point out he DOES NOT dance). He got down on one knee and said "It is a question not a song"

So how do I know he was, is, and forever will be the one?

He is the one that tells me to "shut up" when I'm being a b*tch.
He is the first to tell me to live again when my job of working with troubled teens comes home with me.
He always tells me to push myself to be better than I already am as he wants to feel like he could be a "stay at home dad".
He keeps telling me to "grow up" because I enjoy wrestling with him when he's the one that always starts it!
And finally, he is the only one that will tell me he loves me even when my dad, the one man in a little girl's life that is always your hero, gave up on me.

Dustin comes to hang out with my brother. To spend time with him. To get to know him. To become a trusted confidant. My brother is walking me down the aisle at my wedding (although this is a feat in itself being in front of a lot of people and being my strong hold so I don't fall in high heels!)

The way I knew Dustin was the one? My brother told me he now has two best friends.

What makes my fiance "the one"?

When I met my fiance back in Jan. 2008, I didn't like him. We were out celebrating a mutual friends birthday and he took the tortilla chip bowl out from under me. After a very bad look his way, he returned them. Later that week, my friend decided to set me up with a guy. Little did I know that this guy was him. When we met up, I was a bit reserved. But within a few minutes, I totally just let go... which isn't exactly normal for me. I guard my heart... very protectively. And well, with him... it was different. My heart wasn't letting me guard it, it basically jumped out of me towards him. Instantly, I knew that was some sort of sign for him being "the one". And time proved just that.

I suffer from asthma and extreme cases of gastritis that end me up in the hospital. Everytime I have an episode and/or an attack, he's by my side. He is the one holding my hand, fanning me when I'm hot, whispering "it will be alright" into my ear, brushing my hair out of my face, or simply just staring at me when I get that passionate look into my eyes by something so fascinating.

He has made every dream of mine come true... including how he proposed to me. It was absolutely perfect. And I truly want us to win this contest because of how he proposed to me. He did it with my all time favorite song, Marry Me by Train, playing in the background during the halftime of the Heat game, which is mine and his all time favorite basketball team. I didn't need a fancy musical, or over the top end kind of proposal. The way he did it was PERFECT BEYOND WORDS. And Train means that much more to me. Everytime I hear Marry Me, from the very first moment I heard it, he would stare me into my eyes and sing the sweet melody. No other guy has taken that much time to make me feel special, loved, and adored. He's my one and thats what matter most to me (:

adripas17

My fiance Paul is my "one". He is the ONE I never believed I deserved. He is the ONE that motivates me to be the best version on myself. He is the ONE who doesn't define me, but makes me whole. He is the ONE who lets me be my own person and celebrates my individuality. He is the ONE that loves Disneyland as much as I do. He is the ONE that makes me laugh so much it hurts. He is the ONE that lets me watch all the reality and CW shows I want and "pretends" like he hates them. He is the ONE that balances my control freak personality and mellows me out. He is the ONE who can aggravate me the most, but make me smile in the same instant He is the ONE who I love to drink beer and watch football with (even though he is a Packers fan...bleh!). He is the ONE that makes me excited for the future - whatever it may bring.

He is the ONE that gave me a feeling in my stomach from the moment that I met him, that he was different and was meant to be in my life.

Paul is the ONE that I want to kiss goonight and wake up beside for the rest of my life.

Paul is the ONE that I want to love...ALWAYS.

valeriemargaret

I know my fiancé is THE ONE because when we first met, I was not looking for a relationship and did not get any of the hints that he was interested. After 3 mo this of working together at my school, he moved on to work in another classroom but still visited every time he was in th building! After 3 more months of hints he was ready to give up but couldn't walk passed my room so he stopped in one last time and I gave him my number that day. He called me a few days later, to see me the day before our planned date and the rest is history. We were friends with the same people in high school, and our families even knew each other from when they were growing up but we never met until that day in my classroom. It was meant to be- a total act of fate, which waited until I was ready becuase he was going to be the last man I ever dated. Can't wait to walk down the aisle to "marry me" towards him and spend the rest of our lives together and this is how I know he is the one!

summernderek

My Fiance is the one.....we both have had some life experiences that have made us truly understand what is important in a relationship and a life together. He is everything I have ever wanted and never knew I wanted until we met. He is an amazing father (to both of our children from previous relationships, and to our daughter) He coaches each of the boys sports teams, attends the games, all the meetings, and is always encouraging to them! He is loving,patient, kind, the knid of man that I you want your son to be, the kind of man you want your own daughter to marry and the kind of man that I can't wait to call my HUSBAND!
I see us on the front porch together laughing, playing with our grandkids and talking with our kids....I know he is the one because I feel it in my soul. He "completes me!!" He is everything to me and our kids, I can't picture my life without him, and just the icing on the cake I think he is the HOTTEST man alive! I hope you pick us to win....our wedding date is 11-11-11 because he is "The perfect one" for me

astole

The first day that I met her, we just clicked. Our first conversation that we had didn't end we both fell asleep on the phone with each other. That is the way it has been the whole time. Of course we have had difficult times, but she always finds a way to make the best of a terrible situation. I know that when I have a bad day, she will be right there to help me through it and pick me up. We both had to face the biggest challenge in our life so far which was when our college closed down after only a year there and we had to find a new one to go to. The only college that was still taking applicants was in California so we decided to pack up our stuff, and move there together and it was the best decision of our lives. We just kept growing closer and closer while living in California and I couldn't imagine doing anything without her. She pushes me to break outside of my comfort zone so that I can be a better person for myself. She always helps me see the good in things when I'm only looking at the bad side of things. When I'm with her it feels like we are in our own little world and nothing can break the barrier. There is a special place in our hearts at half moon bay because when we were feeling hopeless after moving down to San Francisco Bay and not really knowing anyone we decided to head to the beach to escape college life for a day. Ever since then, whenever we head back down to California from Washington, we have to stop by half moon bay. We love sitting and watching the sunset until it gets too late to see and in that is the best feeling for both of us. I can feel that she is the one everytime I talk to her, everytime I look at her, and every second I think of her. I'm willing to give up everything for her and be her hero because she has always inspired me in every aspect of my life. Without her in my life I would be completely lost and that is how I know she is the one.

chancesmom11703

My fiance is the one because he always has been.  We met 13 years ago and he has been my best friend ever since.  He has been there for me through the ups and downs of my life, from leaving home, to becoming a single mom and having to leave college because of it.  He has been the only father figure my eight year old has ever known and I can't even begin to put into written words how I felt the first time he called him "daddy" for real.  He is an amazing Dad not only to him but to the baby our love and friendship created.  We have always been friends, now we will be a family. 

trbailey

Wow Last day to post what luck and coincidence really…

Well how about I try to be funny and use the easy way out (but honest) way to explaining why I know Rick  is the “one”...

Just listen to the words of Train's Marry Me. After all it's why I am walking down the aisle to an artist playing an acoustic guitar and singing this song.

1.      The “weight that was lifted” and the “wait that is over” is from his return from deployment recently. We had a wedding date set previously for September 18 but then he got a deployment date of September 3^rd, So we  moved the wedding date and he deployed

 

2.      “Marry me today and everyday” – Applies to the strength of us that we always work on. Acknowledging the fact that a relationship is “work” to us means always working on being loving, understanding and respectful of each other. “Marry me everyday” – Love and treat me the same way you did on the days you fell in love with me.

 

3.      “You wear white and I’ll wear out the words I love you and your beautiful” - This particular line made me laugh out loud the first time that I heard it!!  For those that know of Gary Chapman’s book the 5 languages of love. (Everyone has a particular way they give and receive love) My love language is Acts of Service – When he makes the bed in the morning I feel so loved because I know he had to go way out of his way to do it (My number one quote is Actions speak louder than words). Rick’s love language on the other hand is Words of Affirmation which is funny… On 5lovelanguages.com it says “Words of Affirmation: Actions don’t always speak louder than words.” He is a talker (in a good way) every day he tells me that he loves me and that I am beautiful (“You look great in green babe,” “Your hair looks wonderful,” “You smell great love!” Every time he sees me or talks to me on the phone. While this sounds wonderful being someone with the opposite love language it took some getting used to which goes back to what  mentioned above a lasting love is work but wonderful work!

 

 

If Rick were to tell the story of us alone, he would tell you after finding the courage to pursue me how hard he tried to spend time with me! He tried lunch, dinner, coffee, and eventually he won me over with the notion of ice cream and helping him study! By the end of the course neither knew if they would see one another again, though Rick would tell you that something was telling him that we would...

 

 

We were long distance for 2.5 years before I made the move with the Army to Maryland. We have been engaged since March of 2009. We enjoy doing almost everything together (I refuse to golf - no patience!) We both ride motorcycles, bicycles, love to go hiking and scuba diving then concerts in the summer! Really we also love to do work around the house. Yard work is a wonderful mindless activity for me and he can (and does) do just about anything around our new home.

 

As I am sure most brides would say about their spouse (or spouse to be) he is a wonderful man. He is my perfect balance. Years ago I would have said that his patience is amazing. Today I know that it might not be amazing patience that he has but that WE have opposite patience which is perfect for us. He has no patience for the big understandably aggregating situations - which is when for some reason I am calm as can be. Give me a small irrelevant situation and I lose! I love the fact that as we grow into the people we are becoming we are growing together - while it is not always a smooth process --  it is great to really know that you have a person that is there with you and for you no matter what to grow with and re learn each other when it becomes time. Just last night we came to the realization "You know what?!?! We are so much alike and THAT is why this is difficult!" Huh... who would have thought! ;-)

 

Today he is back home safe and with 90 days until the wedding the Chaos has commenced!!  A trip to listen to such a wonderful group would be such a treat for him as welcome home pre wedding gift!!

My fiance IS THE ONE!!!! We started talking by text and email middle of march last year and finally met in person at Adventureland 2nd week in may last year. I thought he was really nice and could see being friends forever but that is where it was supposed to end. I had just spent 4 years getting over someone I thought was THE ONE and I wasn't gonna trust anyone or let anyone in ever again, but from the moment we met he was just so loving and kind and LOVED my kids. He was so great to us, he started to win my heart but I wasn't letn it show because I didn't wanna ge hurt again. After a few weeks he asked me to be his girl, I turned him down, and he just kept trying finally on Nov 5th 2010 he asked me again and I said yes. In Dec we were in the car going somewhere and Marry Me by Train came on and Denny say's heres my song to you, At this point I was totally in love with him, he never gave up on me he WANTED to be with me and only me. By Jan 30th 2011 he asked me to marry him at church in front of GOD and everyone, it was amazing!!! Denny is THE ONE. He's the best fiance anyone could ever have And an awesome step dad!!!! He is always there for my kids they call him daddy even though they know their father but he doesn't come around very often. Now they have someone they can do dad things with they love him LOTS and and he loves them like his own that makes me so happy.  HE IS THE ONE.

SoSaysTara

Pick me-- we are perfect for each other and he is just exactly the person who was put on this earth for me.  He's fabulous and you're picking the winner on my birthday!

Mr&MrsMaranta

My fiancé is "the one" because he makes me want to be a better person. He isn't superman but he's my man and I think he's super

zimgsgirl26

My fiance and I met in such an unexpected place: detasseling corn. We fell in love right away and I know he is the one because he is always willing to take care of me and us. He joined the Army to provide a better future for the two of us. We've only seen each other 2 out of the last 15 months due to trainings and a deployment, but I'd rather have him and be apart than to not have each other at all. He is my hero and I love him with all my heart.
