How do you know when you meet the one you are looking for?

You don't. It's all a crap-shoot.

When you can look into their eyes and see their heart beating faster when you are near, for the eyes are windows to the heart. Sometimes they need a little windex to make their windows clearer and when that happens, cloud 9 is just the beginning...........

they're lookin right back at you the same way

when you over look all their flaws.witch we all have. and you would die for them.

Exactly. And there are no guarantees in life. So, just because you may think you found "the one" at the time, later on you just might find out you found "the one you need to get rid of!"

she tells me, hey dude i'm the one.

Gee hard to tell these days I think haveing a connection, communication, haveing things in common

I agree Debbie

i don't remember where i heard this, but there was tribal people (i don't remember if it was native americans or south americans or what not, forgive the political incorrectness) that didn't set long term requirements for a relationship. what i mean is, the woman would say this is the man that i'm with and she would stay with that man until she decided that she wanted to be with a different man. and then she would stay with that man. they would live together and sleep in the same tent until she moved on to another man.

what i'm getting at is, they didn't believe in "the one". i think it's unrealistic to think that there is one perfect match for each person. especially since people change over time. the person you meet and later marry may be a completely different person 10, 15, 20 years from now. why say "till death do us part"?

i'm just saying, when you grow apart from somebody they may no longer be the one.


. . .

its a start

i'm just saying that it's unrealistic to believe that it will last forever.
if my GF feels it neccessary to have that marriage commitment, then i'm ok with that. but to say "till death do us part" is a lie when we all know that it really means "till i'm fed up with you".


. . .

Well that's good at least you have an OPEN MIND!

i'm a one woman man and always have been. i'm not afraid of commitment. but i'm not gonna stay with a woman who pulls a 180 after the wedding. nice and perfect before hand, the devil incarnate after. sorry, i'll be seein ya.

. . .

Lets not assume all women or men are the same there are people who believe in a commitment and live happly ever after I personally know couples that do and have lived up to the vow till death do us part

i make no assumptions. i sometimes speak in generalizations. i know that not all men/women do all of the things that they are notorious for. but i do know that many people jump into marriage because they think that they have found "the one" but they don't take the time to really get to know who that person is.
there used to be periods of courting and long engagements. nowadays you meet someone in vegas one night and run down the street to the nearest quickie-wedding to spend "the rest of your life together". it's really pathetic. not that there's anything wrong with running off and getting married, i just think that you should fully know the person first. know what you're getting into. know that they are the one you want to be with day in and day out, everyday, through every obstacle. know that when they're wrinkly and their parts aren't sitting as high as they used to you are still going to want to be with them because you couldn't imagine being with someone else.

He's my inbreath, to his outbreath...

He's the strength of my weaknesses.

He's the music to my lyrics.

He's the heat to my soul.

He's the core of my Knowing.


..............that's how I know.

Lovely Lee

I wish I could be that original but..member this one?

“The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.” Rumi

Or when you stutter..oops
