When did you know that he was the one?

I met my fiance on a dating website and we exchanged emails, texts and talked on the phone quite a bit before we went on our first date. A few weeks into our exchanges, but before our date, I told my cousin/best friend that this guy was either going to be my new best friend or my future husband. After our first date I called my cousin and said, "Guess what, I was wrong about what I said...this guy is going to be my best friend AND my future husband!" I guess I knew right away :-)

After a while of dating and just being treated like I was a princess. We had everything in common and my parents liked him an he wasn't afraid or embarassed to go out in the boat with them or be around them.

I was really hard to get for my fiance. I think after we were actually in a relationship and I realized how hard he fought for me that he was the one. I personally would have given up on me if I was him! lol

Well FI and I had been dating about 3 months when he drunk dialed me (heh) late one night and said that one day he would put a ring around my finger, even if it was out of a Cracker Jack box. When I didn't freak out (I've always moved VERY SLOWLY in relationships), I knew he was something special.

I knew he was the one about two weeks into dating.  After our third date, I got really sick and he took care of me the whole time.  I even went a day or two without showering, no makeup, stinky breath and he stuck by my side the whole time.  I think we both fell in love with each other then.

Our first date. This will sound silly, but he mentioned the action figures in his cubicle at work and I immediately thought "I'm going to marry this guy." LOL, yeah, we're nerds. I immediately dismissed the thought because I figured I was just being crazy, but I turned out to be right!

We started dating in September of our senior year in high school. I knew by Christmas I was going to marry him. He said he knew before we even started dating. After almost 8 years (and 1 break up) we are finally getting married!

The first kiss. We'd been friends for years, and through a ton of stuff together. There was chemistry at every possible level except the physical. Don't get me wrong, he's smoking hot, but the touching aspect was never there. That first kiss sealed the deal and I knew there were going to be great things in our future. He says he knew sooner...smart ass ;p

About two weeks into dating

I'm not sure I can pinpoint an exact time when I just knew. I feel like maybe I always did. My dad referred to him as his son in law after we'd been dating like 3 months and neither of us minded. My dad wasn't one to be so giving of what is basically a praise either. I mean his little girl deserves only the best so I think it was just understood very early on.

We were "friends" for a few months.  I didn't want a relationship, but he did.  I was sick, really sick.  I told him to just stay at home, until my fever reached 103.8!  I called him to come over since I lived alone.  He came RIGHT over and frozen wet washcloths for my head, gave me tylenol and stayed until my fever was under 100.  During that time, I told him I called him my BF at the doctors... and I was just going to keep calling him that.  He thought the fever was talking. 

He ended up driving me to the ER the next day... an hour away because I wanted to be closer to my parents.  Both nights he didn't get home until 2-3am and he had PT at 5am.  I realized maybe he wasn't like the other guys and would hurt me... so I made it FB offical lol.  I figured he was a keeper.  He was surprised, since he really thought it was the fever.

It's pretty hard for me to pinpoint an actual time, but I definitely knew when he asked me if I'd like to buy a house with him and I said 'yes' that this would be the one.

I'd say around the 3-4 month mark we both knew it wsa pretty serious and long term. I was sure I wanted to marry him around 6 months.

I told a few friends before I even knew FIs name..."I am going to marry that guy." It was odd because I never had wanted to get married but there I was wanted to marry a guy I didnt even know.

However in all honesty I knew for sure that FI was "the one" when my grandfather passed away somewhat unexpectedly about a month into our relationship. FI helped me drive the 7 hour trip to Memphis after working 8 hours, missed a day of work, held my hand through the entire funeral and services, helped me drive the trip back and then worked 8 hours within an hour of getting back into town. All in all it was a 48 hour ordeal of which we drove 14 hours, worked 36 hours between the two of us and he met my entire extended family under the worst circumstances. He never once got frusterated, irritated and or upset with me. I had never felt so supported and loved in my entire life and to this day I still get tears in my eyes thiking about that whole ordeal.

 My mother even told me while we were there that if we split up she was keeping FI and getting rid of me. Never has my family liked anyone I dated. I knew then and there he was the one.

I can't pinpoint an exact moment. From the start FI and I just clicked. I'd never really had many guy friends, I'm shy and honestly guys kinda scared me lol. I knew if FI was that easy to talk to and be around that it must be something special.
