I’ve been with my partner a year and a half he’s just about to move in soon and I’m so excited. He’s the nicest kindest funniest most caring person, everyday since I’ve met him I feel so happy at the thought of him and us I’m like a kid on Christmas Eve the nights before I see him I find him so incredibly attractive I think about him all the time. Can’t tell if it’s borderline obsessive or if it will all end and I won’t feel like this in years to come. We are about to think about buying a house together next year once we’ve lived together at mine for a bit and I’m honestly so excited for our future. I sometimes seem to worry our relationship is to perfect especially as my last one was so horrible. I get on with his family so well they all love me and I love his including his nieces and nephews two of them have asked if I will take them out next weekend for ice cream. Even if we have a disagreement it’s over with quickly as we both hate arguments. Do I need a wake up call will I be happily besotted until I’m 100

Four years ago I was where you are. Four years including 18 months of being stuck together 24/7 cos of lockdown and I still feel like a kid at Christmas when he arrivss home after he goes out for the day.

Have a baby on the way too. I can't guaretee you'll still feel this way at 100 but life is too short so enjoy the feeling now. Its a good start to what will hopefully be an amazing life together.

Just bought a house with my partner of 4 years who has made me feel like this since day one! It’s not all room and gloom with relationships there are good eggs out there :)

We still feel like this about each other, after almost 13 years. Bought a house, currently pregnant, and couldn’t be happier.

When you know you know! Good luck

25 years together. Yes we argue, yes we annoy each other sometimes but we love each other dearly and my heart still flips when he comes home

Hopefully, you have found your happily ever after, but I'll be honest, something you've written tweaks my antenna.

"I sometimes seem to worry our relationship is to perfect especially as my last one was so horrible"

So many women who have escaped abusive relationships find themselves in another because the new partner's issues/abuse isn't as "bad" as the former partner's. But abuse is abuse and it's all bad and all unacceptable.

Have you dealt with what lead you to have a relationship with such an abusive man, and are you confident you aren't repeating history by ignoring red flags?

I've felt like this for the past 6 years! I'm married to him with a 1 year old daughter now! X

Yes it can stay like this! We've been together 20 years. Married 12 and when I get home and his car is already there, I get super excited! It's not always roses but we work through it!
One funny story, we were selling a house, super stressful and all that and I had decided I wasn't talking to him! Spoke to solicitors and something had gone wrong so I called him crying on the phone, and I told him I wasn't talking to him but he was the one I wanted to cry on! He said don't talk then!!! But seriously he's the only one I want to share things with and he's got my back!

I absolutely adore my husband but after nearly 7 years the honeymoon period is definitely over and we have our moments! It's normal though and I just love him so much.

honeygriff · 15/09/2021 07:39

I'm still so happy and it will be 6 years in January! I just love being with him! I feel very lucky to have such a caring partner who makes me laugh every day Smile

Don't let anyone burst that love bubble. ❤ I've been with mines over a decade, married, two kids and our friends always say we're couple goals. We just work perfectly together in every way and we're total opposites. They do say opposites attract. Wink

I’m actually so overwhelmed with happiness I find it all a bit much to handle at times as I went from being so un happy and unloved to all this at once I love it though but it definitely is a lot some days when I sit and think about how happy I am
