Partly I just love these stories.
But also I want to know if I’m insane haha.
I’ve only been with my boyfriend for 3 months and I know it’s early, but I had a moment with him last week where I thought, “this is my future husband”. I’ve never had this thought before and, to be clear, I was already married once. With my ex spouse, we dating for many years in our 20s before we decided we should get married. There was no *moment*, it was just sort of time.
But last week as my boyfriend was at my house, we were talking about our dealbreakers and must haves. He got distracted talking about a social issue that’s very important to him (the topic isn’t important and I don’t want the comments to turn into being about that lol). He got teary eyed talking about the pain other people experience and how he hopes his kids never experience it. It was partly that he was being so emotionally intimate with me, but also that he was feeling such compassion for strangers and non-existent children.
There are a ton of green flags with him and things about him that made me fall in love with him. But something about that moment with him totally changed my outlook. I don’t see him as “my boyfriend for now” but totally as “my future husband”.
Idk man; I just feel like I *know* it.
Anybody else know what I mean? I’d love to hear your stories.
