How does someone know that you found "the one"?

I'll start. I'm not much of a talkative fellow in real life. Actually, I'm more of a loner (not the creepy type, just the one who feels better when he's all by himself). Anyway, I talked to this girl once on the internet and I felt that I'm different when I talk to her. I feel that she listens to me and that she actually understands me deeper than any other person I know in real life. Plus, she has a good sense of humor and she's really pretty. That time, I know that she'll be the girl I want to live the rest of my life with. You ever had that feeling when you know you've found the one true love of your life? Do share. :)

Wow, you sound a bit like like a romance movie trailer there! Nah, you sound sweet actually. It is always nice to find someone you are comfortable to talk with. I remember my experience on this, I met a guy online before (only, I am not sure up to now if he is really a he) and we ended up being textmates, chatmates, blogmates and we became friends in friendster (it was 2005~2008). I felt the same way that you described, I found it so easy to talk to him about everything. But anyway, we just gradually lost communication and I don't know where he is now.

I also experienced something like this, and he's my husband now :) Long story short, when we're together we bring out the best in each other. People around me start noticing the good influence that we have to one another. I also like the kind of person that I am whenever I'm with him. There are lots of problems we encountered, its not all good times. But even on the most trying times, we still become better.

My husband and I met through the internet over ten years ago and we are going to be celebrating our eighth wedding anniversary next week. So I want you to know that a relationship that starts online is definitely something that can work out for two people. With that said, I have to say that the reason that I knew that Tom was going to be the man that I would be spending the rest of my life with was because of the fact that he was completely honest with me from the beginning when other people hid a lot of their background to get a date.

I can't know for sure, but now I FEEL I've found THE ONE, my boyfriend :). First of all, the most important thing for me is that I feel SAFE when he is around. I've always been an introvert, a really anxious and worrying person who over-analysed every single step... but when he holds me in his arms, I forget about anything like that. Also, it felt natural that I shared info with him that I never told anybody, and it wasn't like hard to blurt out my biggest secrets. Also, I tend to be really nervous and can become quite speechless when I'm around people I don't know that well, but with him, I never felt that way, I could easily talk, because we got along so well. He really understands me and we both really care for each other deeply and worry more than the other one when something goes wrong with us :P. I also like and feel that it's natural when we touch each other and he holds me in his arms. I wouldn't say I'm phobiac, but I usually hate when other people touch me, it's like they are entering my own personal sphere... but with him, it was different. We think alike in most issues, too, and we have a similar sense of humour and taste in films and we have lots of shared topics to talk about.

Well for me, i knew i found the one when God showed me that he was the one after i vowed i never wanted anyone ever again!I was kinda upset at first actually lol. Other than that i don't know how to figure it out.It can be so tricky. Attraction doesn't always have to mean Romantic attraction and because we don't really know,that which is actually just a physical attraction (which isn't wrong unless we let it get into lust)we take it as otherwise. Or rather because the world pushes physical attraction as romantic attraction we just roll with that. The next thing is if you spend just enough time with anyone,telling your deepest darkest secrets and hearing theirs ..your bound to feel connected and like they really know you and understand...and it could be true legitimately. I've been down that road before ...but signs of selfishness were underneath it.Thank God for shining some light. I've never found my one true love..God did...and the interesting thing is when the Bible used the word 'find' it translated to mean 'have placed in ones hands'...Yup that's what happened to me...and that was the most blessed thing in the world.

Hi inkyuboz: I think that's a good sign but this only means that you have good chemistry. Try to enjoy the experience. Don't fear about loving someone even if at the end of the day you find she was not the one. Time will tell you this answer and keep working on this relationship so love will grow deeper and deeper. ALVARO
