To ask what age you met the love of your life

[Tulisaaa]

After some inspiration 🤣 just turned 37 and in no rush for a relationship after my 20 year relationship ended a year ago.

16 still at school ....my now husband was 20.....we have been together for 37 years...married for 33 years. Share the same birthday.

I've been married for many years, but I don't think I've ever met anyone whom I would describe as the love of my life. I'm not sure that I even know what it means, to be honest.

26

Met when I was 21 and he was 22 and we were married 18 months later. Together for 25 years now

I was 31- he was 26. We’d met at my cousins wedding about 6 weeks before and I thought he was too young but he was (is) soo gorgeous! We had a drunken snog that night (it was my cousin’s birthday) and I thought that would be it.
We were engaged 5 months later. He is without a doubt the best thing that has ever happened to me- and I’m so proud to call him my husband.

Depends what you mean by love of your life and is highly subjective.

I still think about my first boyfriend. It was highly charged and sexual. Utterly obcessed with each other but ended horribly. Is that love of my life?

Or the husband who I adore and can depend on to care for me and (I hope) love me for the rest of my life on this earth?

I would go for the second over the first but the first had serious passion.

I was with my ex for nearly 17 years, assumed that was it for me and I’d be alone forever, but met my DH evolve trying to prove there was no point trying to find anyone 😂 I was 35, disabled, and had three kids.

I'd just escaped from an unhappy 12 year marriage and met my fabulous DH aged 37, 23 years ago

17

still married nearly 40 years now

Also 29 dh 30.
both previously divorced a few years
Married 26 years. Very happy.

16 been together 47 years in September.

14. Married at 19. Just celebrated 52nd anniversary.

Well you got lucky

Some of us are still on the jetty, waiting. You can't know that the OP hasn't missed the boat too

18 - engages at 20, married at 21

25 years later we are still going strong

16 and left him at 25 and i’ve regretted it and missed him ever since 💔

21. We got married two and a half years later.

This was considered slightly scandalous as we are Scandinavians and lived in a Scandinavian country then and it wasn't and isn't normal to marry that young. Especially not if you are academically inclined. Anyway, we celebrate our 29th anniversary next month

16. Only lasted a few years due to us moving away to separate unis etc but despite having children and other relationships, he will always be the love of my life. Nice to experience it at least once in life I think.

Sometimes I regret ending my 20 year relationship. He literally just pleased himself and left most of the parenting to me whilst he went out partying with the woman who he didn’t fancy at all and her brother (he is with her now)

Not me but my sister was in her late forties ,her marriage had ended in divorce after 20 years and she met her current partner a year or so later
They seem very happy they don't live together and they both have adult children,but spend a lot of time together it suits them.

I didn’t get lucky, I spent a hell of a lot of time and money on therapy working on my own issues and so consequently was in a good place when the right person came along.

Some luck comes into it of course, but attitude plays its part too. I would have screamed at someone who’d said that to me five years ago. They would have been right though. I hope you find whatever it is you’re looking for.

35, I needed the maturity of years to know myself, to understand my ethic and to choose wisely. I had settled down with someone previously, but I was 18 when we met and I hadn't really become myself yet. I realised at 30 that I probably wanted out of that marriage, but I don't do anything quickly, so I was 35 by the time I met the love of my life! I do wish we'd met sooner, but we didn't, so I'm just grateful we met.

Suppose you were in a similar situation to me.

27- married 30 years next year together for 32 this year. Love him.

I think I might be depressed
