Have you ever met someone and knew you wanted to spend the rest of your life with them?
Superb Opinion
Yes, I have met such a man. Yet, the feeling came only after knowing him a little and not from first sight.
Once I read a story about an old man on his death bed. Someone asks him.
-You've lived a long life, how come you never got married?
-I was looking for the perfect woman.
-Haven't you met her after travelling so much?
-I have, only she's been looking for the perfect man.
This conversation stuck in my mind and helped me through with the idea of meeting THE person, but letting him go, simply because I wasn't THE ONE for him.
It's sad when you think about it. Especially knowing you probably won't ever come across such a person again, but, on the other hand, it makes you happy you got to meet at all.

Yes my wife, I knew she was the one the first time I saw her. Seven months latter we were married and three years latter we had a beautiful daughter. The best part we are still in love and happy twenty some years latter. Strange but true facts my wife liked me four years before I saw her. I grew up in the country, so did my wife, weird we only lived about three miles from each other (there’s a three year age difference this was why I did not know her). When I first saw her I asked my friend if he knew her, he said yes and I told him to go and ask her if she wants to go to the movies with me (weird she was staying less then a half of mile from where I was working). There even more weird things I guess having weirdness in our marriage and life is one of the reasons we are still happy.
2.4K opinions shared on Relationships topic. I've had moments like that but then it's funny because as you get to know them, there are little things. I hate movies but I love books. It's stuff you don't catch right away but it can make a perfect person into a well maybe not... And sometimes it's a number of personality clashes that you don't know until you know them more. But sometimes that rare person comes where you finish each other's sentences and come up with the same topics that you do as you talk, that's your love life partner right there :)

Good question!
To be honest, no. Or better - I had some feeling that this person would last more in my life than I'd have reasonably thought, there was just this weird feeling once she popped back out from nowhere after a couple of years. - 1.2K opinions shared on Relationships topic.
No, I've heard people say it, but never experienced myself...

I have that feeling about the woman I have been dating since December. We spend 3-4 days together every week so we have gotten very familiar with each other and we seem to be very well matched.
... Yes? More like have you ever been in a long term relationship while uncertain about it, but continuing probably out of fear of being alone? Very different question though.
PS: I see the word influencer next to your name and that pretty much automatically makes anything you say/do a totally redudant marketing device.1.6K opinions shared on Relationships topic. It's impossible to meet someone and instantly know that. It takes time to get to really know someone.
But, at some point, it is definitely possible to know that you want to spend the rest of your life with someone. That's the case with my wife and me.-
I thought that when I met my first husband and we ended up getting divorced. I would have never dreamed I would have married my next husband when we first met yet we're still happily married.
The point is that substantive romance isn't the "I loved him the moment I met him" BS and first impressions aren't always correct I met my wife on a blind date setup by her sister and Brother-in-law. We dated a few times, never did "hookup", back then. Took her home to meet the family a couple months later, and we were married less than 4 months later. So maybe a total of 6-7 months...
And now, 47 years later going year by year.-
Yes I did but he passed away we had plans dreams but that's all gone, now I just carry on 💔

You mean "Storybook Love" coach? Well, when I was 15, I "thought" I did, but then it kept happening again and again and again throughout college. LOL So I gave up on the whole idea, and a good thing !!

Yep. I'm 31, and all my life I just knew I'd fall in love once or never. I ended up meeting my person, and let me tell you, there is no other feeling like this in the world. You just know. I but it's not been a straightforward situation. We now have a history of 7 years, things ebbed and flowed for us for various reasons, and he got a girlfriend before I had a chance to say how much I love him.
I know that now, unless he comes back (hopefully!) I'll not have anyone else. I've never felt so much as a sliver of attraction or thrill around anyone else, and frankly, I'm happy with the idea I had seven years with my love. I'll always wait for him, but I'm not sad about it! I'd say yes, but it's an interesting process. Originally we just had an amazing instantaneous connection, from the very first moment we met, even though we were very different people. Id never had this connection before, and I knew I wanted the best for them forever. We are still friends, but unfortunately our aspirations and life goals weren't a match. C'est la Vie

Honestly, if I have it was driven by a large amount of lust and immaturity. Basically I believe we could adapt to be with anyone we meet if we tried. But love at first sight isn't fictitious. Its just not realistic lasting love in my opinion unless you're really open-minded and highly adaptive.
Yeah. That's what happened when I met my idiot boyfriend 8 years ago lol. Took 1 look at him and immdiantly realized I loved him and wnated 2 b with him 4ever

I did not realize that’s how I felt until long afterwards... all I knew then was that I enjoyed his attention and that he had the best smile I had ever seen. That smile still follows me, like the memory of sunshine on a dreary winter day.

Yeah, you do meet a lot of people but there’s really a small number that will truly captivate you and you’ll want to spend your life with them.

Yes, it was my ex and I fell in love with him from the moment we started dating and I thought he was the one for me but he didn't love me as much. He hurt me very badly in our relationship. Even though I haven't communicated with him in a long time and I kinda hate him for what he did, I feel like I will always love him even though he did all those things to me.
My current boyfriend. It sounds cliche but, I definitely would love to spend the rest of my life with him.

Like at first sight seems completely doable... But real love? Unlikely.
Never happened to me. -
yep. Till I found out some months later she got together with someone else and already lived together.
Sometime it is not reciprocal. Have this feeling but transform it in friendship, and just want to be near or around him.
