How soon did you believe that it was for real (second time around)

[lifeisgoodagain]

I've met a wonderful guy, I'm just so scared to believe it's for real ... can you really be in love after 4 weeks? He wants to book things for the summer, says he knew I was right before we met in person, he's literally perfect and we aren't spring chickens, getting a second chance wasn't a given. So do I let myself believe, start to daydream my life with him? It was many weeks with my first husband, I knew it was youthful lust, but this is so different. Tell me I'm not alone? Love at first sight, does it exist? My kids are telling me to go for it

DP and I knew we were more than a casual fling very quickly. Sometimes it just feels right and it's ok to go with it.

Just enjoy it!

About 3 weeks. We've been together 11 years, married for 7, with a 4yo ds now.

About 2-3 weeks with DH ... bern together 18 years now, mortgage, 2 kids, run a business together .... I just “knew”... can’t describe it really ..

Met my second husband just over 7 years ago. It was probably a good 6 months before I thought he was 'the one' - I was so cautious because of bad experience with ex and I was also massively independent by the time I met him, had my own house, was financially independent etc. We actually didn't move in together til having been together for over 4 years.

Go for it but if I were you I wouldn't rush things - no need to go all in at the start but I do hope it works out for you.

A lot of people will disagree but I believe in love (ish) at first sight. That old cliche ‘you know when you know’
When I first met my OH after a few hours of dancing and laughing I knew he was for me. It was like a little part of me just went ‘yep, that’s the one...’
and he IS the one. Even when he leaves his pants on the bathroom floor and snores alllllllll night, I still look at him with a soppy grin.
Enjoy it!

4 weeks is way, way too soon. Even if you feel it’s incredibly right you should get to know a person before pinning your hopes on them. You don’t even know this guy yet.

Take it a day at a time, don’t rush into anything. Just enjoy each other’s company without making it into a huge thing.

Yup, totally believe in love at first sight!
DP BOTH knew the first night we met, had a 5th date in a foreign land, he moved in after 5 months, and proposed after 9 months.
At the ages of 43 and 49, we’ll be getting married next summer! 😊

First night. We both knew. 27 years and 3 dc later he's still my best buddy and he says I still give him butterflies.

It can and does happen. Me and my partner are very much in love and we've only known each other four months. You just know when it hits you, lol.
