How do you know when you'll be with the person forever?

Answer 1

u dont know what forever is. forever can be a day for both of you or 40 years. no one knows when their life on earth will end.
how do u feel about this person NOW. do u love, respect, honor , trust and admire that person NOW? and is it mutual? does he/she make u want to be a better person, and vice versa? If it feels good now chances are he/she is for you. if u have the above qualities i mentioned now, chances are you will have them later, cause those traits are long lasting.
as opposed to things such as looks, money , fame.(yes people marry for those 3 reasons also, thats why they dont last)

Answer 2

There really is no real way to know. One cannot predict what the future holds. There can be situations beyond your control that can cause a breakup between two people. Sometimes as two people in a relationship grow older one or both of them can change therefore grow apart from one another. It does not matter if they have been together for 1 year or 20 or 30 years. It just happens.

Answer 3

There is no way to ever know that. Even if you have a document, that means nothing if life's circumstances play a huge part in splitting you up. People start out with the best intentions, like the famous quote that talks about the "best laid plans" of mice and men going astray. Another one is the "road to Hell is paved with good intentions."

It's hard to know what life deals, but we do our best and make sure you know someone very well. You need to be friends first, be sensitive to the other, be nice, and not let life get the best of you. Being in love will be the glue that binds you, but you need the foundation of friendship.

Answer 4

If you haven't spent time asking the right questions that meet both your needs, you don't have the right person. This isn't just about love, it's about your shared goals, your shared dreams, and religion fits in as well as where you think you are going with children in you life. All these things have to be part of your conversations. Please take time to know what you both expect in life or you won't have a life. When you can say you have done these things, you shouldn't move forward unless you have done these things. When your life brings other lives...children....you can't make the wrong move. Please make thoughtful decisions before you move forward. The wrong partner can change your life forever and if you brought children into it, the worst for all of you.

Answer 5

You never know for sure. You just need to take it one day at a time and learn to trust and love each other. Even then it might not last forever but you will at least develop a deep friendship. You just need to make sure you keep your own personality and never lose yourself when you are in a relationship. Good luck!

Answer 6

You don't just "know" like some are saying.

You may *think* you just "know" but feelings are fleeting like the wind. Ever-changing. By the hour, by the month, by the year. But they WILL change.

When you think about being united with someone in marriage, it's about researching the background of that individual BEFORE going ahead with it -(how does he/she handle conflict, communicate his/her feelings, how is/was his/her parent's marriage, and why?) People almost NEVER do this before getting married b/c they are "blinded" by INFATUATION.

Love is a choice you make to be with that person each day.

Each day leads to "forever".

Answer 7

Thats a loaded question just have to spin the wheel as they say.I thought I found the one over 20 years ago and for the past 18 I knew it was gonna be a big mistake and it has been its like the neighbor that wont leave.Just make sure of your options.Like Elvis said only fools jump in,Just give me the jesters hat and away I go

Answer 8

There are no guarantees that love will last forever..as love takes work and many people just don't want to put the work in and expect it to be easy. But you know you are going to be with someone for a long time when you can see growing old with him, when you can see your children in his eyes and when he sees the same in you.

Answer 9

No one really knows if they're going to be together forever. We all like to believe that when that certain person make us feel happy and make our life seem brighter. Just hope that the person you chose want to be with you as you want to be with them. And work at it......its a long hard road....

Answer 10

You never know. I didn't know I wanted to be with bestfriend but we are really good together I THINK we will be together forever but getting with someone there are too many variables and you never know for sure but you will drive yourself crazy thinking about every single thing that will happen if they make you happy now and you love them now then thats all that matters for now :)
