Just that really.
How old were you when you found your person and found real love?

Just interested....

43 - been together for 16 years - am grateful for him every day

I was 27. "Loved up happy ending" feels like an OTT way to put it given you can never know the future, but it's when I met my husband and we're still in love and happy 6.5 years on.

  1. Fifteen years and 4 children later, it's still him.

Not yet and I am 49 so probably never. Married for 18 years to a man who turned out to be a compulsive liar who used prostitutes throughout our marriage so whatever I thought that was, it was never love.
Still live in hope but can’t see it happening now.

When I was your age, I thought the same, but met him when I was 49 (see above) 🙂

28 but it was pretty grim before that. 15 years later and still very happy.

Buggabootwo · 04/07/2024 13:09

50, I can’t quite believe it as I thought it would never happen for me. I feel like I have come into safe harbour and don’t want to leave.

Bloom15 · 04/07/2024 13:23

I was 31 - been together for 13 years now

Louisetopaz21 · 04/07/2024 22:12

I was 3 when I met my husband. He is 9 years older and was my uncle's friend. He remembers me doing a snow angel. We met again when I was 43 and we fell in love ❤️

well at the time... 16, then again at 28, then a couple of times until i was 46...

at the time i thought all of them were 'the one'.. until they very clearly were not 'the one'

at 46 i met the man who saved me! he is my rock, my soul mate my whole world, but i imagine i also said that at some point about all the others

Boomer55 · 05/07/2024 16:54

I was 48. He died last year. Before that, I was married to someone that wasn’t the love of my life for nearly 30 years.

Svolvaer · 05/07/2024 18:05

14 and then again at 48 (same person)

Walnutair · 05/07/2024 18:10

43: good things come to those who wait…

Tittyfilarious · 05/07/2024 18:13

16 and that was 26 years ago married for 20 years 😊

Cassidyscircus · 05/07/2024 18:30

37 - I haven’t yet, but to be honest I’m not ready 😂 I can’t be arsed and have a few things I want to achieve before I have to consider another person etc

I’m so sorry for your loss. That’s just heartbreaking. I met mine at 49, having been married to the wrong one for 30-years. 💐

im 73 now and love him more than ever. I’m very blessed.

godmum56 · 30/08/2024 21:13

age 14. no I wasn't raped or groomed. We married when I was 21 and I lost him 12 years ago. We had a wonderful marriage.

SnugCoralFinch · 30/08/2024 21:50

At 32 I met someone I had something with, never experienced it before. Doesn’t count as it didn’t work out 😂 but I’m also glad I’ve experienced it.

Bramblesandbracken · 30/08/2024 23:24

Forty. Had no idea relationships could feel so amazing.
