25 Men Confess The Moment They Knew They Wanted To Marry Their Wife

13.

One of our couple friends announced they were having a baby. Later that night she called me to her closet and goes “look this is my baby” and she had wrapped up her cat like baby. The cat was so old and so pissed. I never laughed so hard.

At one point I looked at her, cracked a smile and thought, “wow I could really see living the rest of my life with her”. When I smiled she said “what… What are you thinking?” “Oh, nothing”, I responded. A few moments of silence passed and then she said “hey… ” “yeah?” I asked. “Me too.” she finished. Then back to silence. That was it… That’s when I knew. We had been dating maybe three months at this point. We have now been married for 8 years and have 2 amazing kids.

We had gone on two or three dates before I asked her to “be my girlfriend” and I knew the instant she said yes that we would be married one day. Her eyes just lit up like nothing else when I told her I wanted to make things official. It has felt like I can read her mind since the day I met her. I know when she’s happy, sad, upset, tired, annoyed, etc. I knew a few days before she asked me to move in with her that she was going to ask. We have been in sync pretty constantly, and I’m incredibly lucky to be married to someone with whom I’m so in tune. We dated for three years, but I knew from day one that we were going to be married.

She told me on several occasions that she would murder me if I dumped her after she turned 40. So I proposed on her fortieth birthday.
