I like to believe, like I have said before that every life has a one true love snapshot, the moment you remember the most about the person you love.
This will be corny to some...but I don't mind telling the whole story. Me and my now husband had been friends for five years, we went to Law School together and were always on the same classrooms and did group assignments together as well.
Needless to say, he knew everything about me and I knew everything about him, we shared the fights with our significant others with each other, he even showed me his girlfriends' letters and he consoled me when my boyfriend cheated on me.
Time went by and I broke up with the guy I was seeing and my now husband didn't have a girlfriend, so we started skipping classes to go to the movies and such.
All the while I was thinking we were just friends, but one day while we were on the car driving back to school a really weird song started on the radio, this is the kind of song that you dance to and know the lyrics to and you think that no one else in the world knows, well, as soon as the song started we both started singing it; and then it hit me, just like in the movie clueless, I thought, OH MY GOD, IM IN LOVE WITH THIS GUY, so I turned to face him and he looked at me and said, you don't really believe this started just now do you? I have been waiting five years for you, and he then told me how on the first day of school he saw me on one of the corridors and told a mutual friend: That is the girl I am going to marry, and the friend told him...I don't think so, she has a boyfriend, pretty serious I think. Images flooded my mind and I started to recall every single time he had stood by me and consoled me and how he looked at me sometimes when he thought no one else was watching, that face, the face of love I call it, was impossible to deny. Something inside me clicked and although I was completely speechless right then and there I knew that he was the man I was going to marry and I did.

I may be the only guy that answers this one. But here goes. I dated her for a long time. No problems. Then we lived together for 2 years. No problems. Then, I thought it might be a good time to propose, so I did. In the engagement period (about 4 months) I asked God to show me if she was the right one, before I made a mistake. No answer. The day of the wedding, I asked God to show me if she was the wrong one, before I made a mistake. No answer. And now, 17 years later, I look back and think, He gave me the answer! Have some faith and follow your heart. It was the best thing that I ever did!

AWE congrats! As for how I knew, I just kinda did! We were introduced by his ex/my friend, went on a date, talked for a while, then this other girl showed up and kinda messed stuff up for a few months, but seriously, right from the beginning and even after all that, I still had this feeling about him, It wasn't love in the beginning, but this undescribable connection. We ended up working it out and we have dated now for 3.5 years. He asked me to marry him last March 15 at 11:43 pm. We are gettin married March 24, 2007! 145 days to go!

Congrats!
I met my fiance in high school so I didnt really know at first that he was "the one" we were only 16 and didnt know a lot about love. That was 7 years ago, weve grown up together, we got to learn the true meaning of love with each other. I knew I was going to marry him about a year and half into our relationship. He makes me a better person, makes me happy, I guess I just knew somehow.

Congratulations on your engagement!
I am a New England sports fan....my diamond ring was wrapped in a piece of tissue paper that was in a tiny Patriots helmut and the helmut was wrapped in a Red Sox shirt. It might sound dumb to others, but for me, it couldn't have been better!
I couldn't imagine not having him in my life, I knew we would be connected forever. It may sound sappy, but when we were together I finally felt like all was right with the world.

I was married once I am now going through a divorce. Yet I would not change anything. It was one more step to finding my true love. The answer to this question would be for me if you cant think of spending one mintues without that other person in your life then that person is the right one.
That shows that you do truly love them. then ask them the same question. see what they say.

Congratulations!
We both just "knew." We went set up by his sister, who approached me in a nail salon and said I'd be perfect for her brother. I emailed him (thinking it would never work!) and we ended up meeting. He knew the night we met that I was the one for him, I knew within a few more dates. One month after we started dating he asked me to go ring shopping with him, 3 months later he proposed. We saved up our money to have our dream wedding and we've now been married 1 year and together for 3 years. He was a pastry chef so he even made our wedding cake - a five tier masterpiece.

You know when you have complete trust in each other, and you help further each other's life long goals, and you have deep respect, admiration and love for each other. You should also "fight fair" which means that you NEVER verbally hit below the belt in arguments and that you remain respectful and considerate, even when you disagree, and there WILL be disagreements. Then it is the right person.

When you just don't see yourself being with anyone else.
My story is a love at first sight story. When I met my partner I was in a relationship but when we met something came over me. I was instantly in love with this person NO LIE! I abruptly ended my relationship and began dating him. We have been together ever since, that was 4 years ago.
