how can you be sure of your feelings about your partner? how can you say that he's/she's the person you want to spend the rest of your life with?

How can you be sure? Well, it is a tough question, and to be honest.. Up until less than a year ago, I did not think I could ever be sure. What made me realise my girl was the one I wanted to spend my life with was actually a couple of things. For starters, I met my girlfriend when I was as far from wanting a girl as I ever have been! I was so happy being single, and did not visualise myself with a special someone. So just falling in love with her made me realise she was special. But one day I realised, my day is not complete without a mail or a hello from her. I felt something was missing. Later I found myself daydreaming about being with that girl who had caught my attention. Later I felt getting depressed from missing her so much. Even later, when after months of an at first friendship, that developed into a more flirtatious relation, and finally in April 2006 when she became my girlfriend, I realised, I was crying from missing her so much. In October I went to stay with her for two weeks, and on the first day, I knew what I had thought to be true from January or February; this is THE girl. I cannot live without her. So to be honest, I did not know she was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with to a 100% until October, but I was 99% sure months earlier.. And in July we will finally live together, forever! Me and my wife to be, for life! And bebe, mahal kita!

it's good to know that he makes you feel secure that he loves you so much. that's very important in a relationship.

You can't be sure, but you make a decision to give yourself to that person. It's not an airy-fairy feeling where you can say after a couple of years 'it feels different now...'. You pledge yourself and make an effort. To the previous responder, you are not sure because you have not made a decision! Pledge yourself to your partner - mentally you have left your options open, this is very bad news!

There is no forumla with which you can understand that you were meant to be with that person. In time the things come from themselves and you will realise that the person which is close to you might be the chosen one. Good luck!

I think you just know. when a person makes you feel beautiful and safe, when a person makes you laugh and feel good about yourself that is a good sign =)

8 years ago I asked the same question with myself when I was in the midst of answering WILL YOU MARRY PROPOSAL? LOVE is like a card game you make a bet and you play hard to win it, you lay card hoping that this will be the one who will hit the pot money. I can say that when I answer the question YES I WILL MARRY YOU! I was 100% sure of him because he see things in me that I don't, he keep believing on me and my ability and Open my horizon to the reality that there is a real prince on the modern days by his gesture and attitude and the way he handle his family and his very positive outlook in life. Now I prove myself right about him as we continue loving each other with GOD in our center.

I also ask that question to my self before specially when we are still new in our relationship before but now that we have been this far in our relationship I can say that I really love him. We encounter lot of test in our relationship but we are still together and we never left each other. When the day that we got married I also wonder if he is really the man for me and now I think he really is and I thank God for giving him to me as my partner in life.
