    Re: Corny Topic...How Do/Did You Know That You've Found The Right One?

    Do you guys feel like her being able to make YOU laugh is important?

    Or is that more just a "perk"?

      Yeah I think it's important. You have to be able to joke around with each other and that goes both ways.

        Re: Corny Topic...How Do/Did You Know That You've Found The Right One?

        After a LONG LONG term relationship that was horrible...I finally came to my senses and ended it. I would have ended it so much earlier, but unfortunately I wasn't that smart back then. During the year and a half after that I went on lots of dates (a 2-month relationship was the longest one that came out of it).

        Then came October 2005...and I met this nice girl online (I should say I met them all online...except for one that my dad set me up with...haha, yeah my dad). I sent her a message through some dating website and she replied and gave me here Messenger username (she actually got a message from another guy at the same time and was about to talk to him too...but he never went online...thank God!).

        We then talked on the phone for a couple of hours and met 2 days later. It was so great, we both knew it right there that this was it (we didn't say it out, but it was obvious to both of us). It was so natural - no games (I actually never played games and never understood what it was good for), no pretending, no "I'll pretend I'm not that interested", nothing of this stuff, only sincerity.

        We moved in together almost 8 months later, and got married after 2 years together. I don't think I ever actually proposed her in a formal way. It was just obvious that it would happen sooner or later. I'm pretty sure we were just talking and I said something like "so how about we get married?", and she said "sure". Maybe even more casual than that.

        We've been married for 8.5 years. She's the best!



        *** So....did this answer the original question of this thread? I'm not sure, but all I know is that it worked. TMagic, I don't think there's need to analyze it too much.

          I make myself laugh enough, so that would be a perk.

          For me, it's that she offsets my weaknesses really well.

          I'm terribly with money, she's great with it. I have a horrible memory, she remembers things for me. She's great with keeping in touch with family; I would rarely talk to any family members if it wasn't for her. I don't plan much for the future and that's her main focus.

          Most of the areas I'm deficient in, she excels in, so we complement each other really well.

            I'm just like you Jr, every single thing mentioned is one of my weaknesses and my girl is her strengths.

            In my business right now I'm the guy who comes up with everything but she's the one executes better.

            We make such a great team and we rely on each other when one of us is weak.

            I can't tell you when you find the one, it's just something you know I guess.

              If she's ok at looking at you when you have a gaming headset on and just in your underwear on the couch......she's the one

              All kidding aside, I think "the one" is the one you think about more than yourself and someone who doesn't necessarily have all the same interests, but enjoys doing those things that interest you the most.

                Being able to make each other laugh is like the first thing I look for in girl. If I'm not laughing a lot on the first date there isn't going to be a 2nd.

                      For you guys, how much of a role does physical attraction play for you in selecting a woman ? Would you date a woman who you didn't think is drop dead gorgeous right when you first see her ?

                        Laughter is huge to me.
                        Being able to make fun of each other in good fun is something that really matters to me because it's an easier way to notice and accept your faults with each other but not be nagging about it.

                        Not keeping secrets is also huge. She doesn't sneak around and do weird things without me knowing and vice versa.

                        I echo NYJETS as well. On our first couple dates we laughed A LOT. If that didn't happen I doubt there would have been more.

                        And lastly, yes I was physically attracted to her in the first place. Is she the "hottest" girl I've ever been with? No. She's got flaws and I love that about her.

                          Me personally? No. If I'm not physically attracted to her, it's not going to work for me. What's physically attractive for one person is not the same for the next person though.

                            To me it's: am I attracted to her or nah.

                            So I'm not like "well she's attractive but not drop dead gorgeous...so no thanks".

                              One of the main reasons I bring this up is because of marriage statistics show that 50% of marriages end in divorce and that subsequent marriages have an even HIGHER divorce rate.

                              That's CRAZY to me. I also a study done that showed that 78% of the divorces were initiated by the woman. That's a scary thought when thinking about everything together.

                              I'm just wondering why it is as high as it is. Because I would to think that MOST (not all) people are getting married to the person they truly believe is the best. Maybe they weren't looking for the right thing? Or maybe the "right one" changes as we get older and change ourselves? Maybe humans aren't even meant to be monogamous to begin with?

                              Then you look on the flip side, and there are 50% of couples that stay married. What is it that keeps them going strong? Is there a common denominator between them?

                              I understand commitment is a big factor. Also kids, and finances help keep people together.

                              I know this sounds crazy, but I DONT want that. I mean, I do. I just don't want that to be the DRIVING force behind why my partner and I stay together. I want us to stay together because we want each other and nobody else...because we keep falling in love with each other again and again. That's what I want our motivation to be.

                              Is that even possible or realistic? Or am I just reaching, a sorta pipe dream?

                                I honestly think that divorce rates are high because people are just a lot more selfish now and the sanctity of marriage has been a farce the last couple of decades. I say that because the divorce rate of couples that were married prior to the 80's, are significantly lower.
