another romantic question

oooh i have thought of a question, a romantic lovey dovey one (i like these)

What was it that made you realise you were "in love" with your dp/dh/dw?

When he carried me in his arms from the beach all the way back to the car after he had pushed me off the wood and I sprained my wrist.

I chose to be - for life. Now I see those moments all the time. The curve of her back. The way she looks after the kids, and I come home at a surprising time and see her mothering the kids. The way her nose wrinkles when shes angry. Her quick wit, when she's digging me. The way she reservedly finds out how to give herself to me, and vice-versa. The amount of times she looks at me, with a soft look in her eyes and says ever-so-gently "I love you." When she chooses to do lawns/clean my car/make me food/whatever...JUST BECAUSE! I didn't ask or expect it, she just does it! When she gets up in the middle of the night and bumps into the wall, cuz it's too dark and she missed the door. Her fire when we fight. Her gentleness with a baby. The way she loves to play and be. Her sense of compassion and Justice, when things aren't fair to someone else. Her willingness to listen, to change, to improve, to not become stagnant. Her hard work in building other people up.

These are only a few of the things that make me realise I am in LOVE with this woman. I would die for her. But I don't want to die for her so I can spend more time with her.

these are so lovely, thankyou for sharing guys

After we'd been going out for about 3 months I'd gone on a holiday to Oz for 3 weeks with my mum (I was 17), & when i got home things felt a little weird between us, like I didn't know if I really wanted to still be together....

Dh (boyfriend at the time obviously) noticed this & we had a couple of days apart for "a break" & when we got together to talk about it I realised THEN that I DID love him & wanted to be with him! The thought of loosing him made me wake up to myself!! We were married 2 yrs later & just celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary & we're still soooo in love with each other!!

That's easy - when he first kissed me - I thought to myself wow i really like this guy - went home and thought yep i can see myself being married to this one.
7 years later we're about to be married, we've got our own home, a furr baby and soon a real baby.
