I'm thinking that if you imagine being stuck on a deserted island for 50 years with just them and you don't want to kill yourself or them... you've found the right person.

I think you need to take a long look at the person you're with and at yourself and then ask, "Self - could you possibly do any better than this?"

In my case I asked that and realised she's about 10x better than I could hope for.

:love:

wait until they're at their ultimate worst, ie sick, really angry for no reason, or the like, and if you still love them, it's gonna work.

:stupid:

I asked myself that and realized that I am extremely lucky and that I better marry her before she changes her mind. :D

Honestly I can't imagine being without her. She's my best friend.

You'll just know...you will, and when you do, hang on to her/him.

I got VERY lucky with my wife! Make sure however that they're your best friend. That doesn't mean that they have to love everything you do, because then it would boring.

your similarities should be offset by the differences. I hope that this is the ONE!

Opie, that is a pretty good way to figure it out.

If you curl up with your significant other everynight and feel like you can't get close enough to them, thats a good sign too :)

I'd want to kill anyone that I was going to be stuck alone with for 50 years.

Is she the hottest chick you can afford? Are you the richest man she can attract?

Actually, I think I could deal with it with my girl, she's that perfect :love:
Not married are you?

And my wife can barely keep from killing me know, so isolated on an island for 50 years.... oh yeah it would be a race to see who's getting brained with a coconut first.

How to know if you are with the right person:

You can get in a fight with your spouse, come with in an inch of having your brain dashed with a coconut (or conversely dashing her/his brains with a coconut) and with in 15 minutes have make-up sex like nothing ever happened.

In other words, I think it is unrealistic to expect that you will never have any differences between you and your mate. The ability to reconcile these differences is the key.

i never feel like i have to "put in" to a relationship with my wife. we are very happy the way we are.. we communicate very well and always say whats on our mind.. I never feel like i am doing more than her.. she puts in as much as an effort to make me happy as i do for her.. its well balance.. seeing my relationship its hard to imagine that anyone would ver get seperated.

Don't ask me... we just filed for divorce last night. Obviously, I didn't find my perfect girl. Gotta find me some hot cycling woman now. ;) LOL
Wow. WTF?

I thought you two were good together for some reason. What happened?

I've heard it said that you can tell a lot about a person by how they deal with three things: rainy days, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

I'm not sure what you do if you're of the Jewish persuasion! :D
