My brother (a taurus) and his wife (a leo) will be celebrating their first anniversary this month (the 23rd), and last night I was thinking that if I could ask them any question after an entire year of ups, downs, happiness, and extreme misfortunes, it would be "What did you feel or what did you think when you knew that the person you were with was the person you wanted to spend the majority of your life with?"

I found the thought really interesting, because I can only imagine how nerve-wracking yet fulfilling that moment you knew you wanted to marry your significant other. So I extend this question to others, whether you are married, engaged, divorced; and if you're single or in a relationship and not even considering marriage, what do you think it'd be like?

"What did you feel or what did you think when you knew that the person you were with was the person you wanted to spend the majority of your life with?"

The majority?, no, the rest of my life. It was an epiphany that occurred suddenly one day when I looked into his eyes and had a simultaneous thought/vision of needing that forever. It was an electric charge of seeing through to his soul & needing to never stop feeling this incredible connection we have when we look at eachother. It's that shared intimacy which needs no words and transcends the body.

I'm sure it's different for everyone. Probably depends on what you value & need but you will know it when it happens for real.

A man wanted to get married. He was having trouble choosing among three likely candidates. He gave each woman a present of $ 5,000 and watched to see what they do with the money.

The first got a total make over. She went to a fancy beauty salon got her hair and nails done, new make up and bought several new outfits and dressed up very nicely for the man. She told him that she did this to be more attractive for him because she loves him so much.

The man was impressed.

The second went shopping to buy the man gifts. She got him a new set of golf clubs, some new gizmos for his computer, and some expensive clothes. As she gave these gifts, she tells him that she has spent all the money on him because she loves him so much.

Again, the man is impressed.

The third invested the money in the stock market. She earned several times the $ 5,000. She gave him back his $ 5000 and reinvested the remainder in a joint account. She told him that she wanted to save for their future because she loves him so much.

Obviously, the man was impressed.

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money he'd given her. Then, he married the one with the biggest boobs.

Men are like that, you know!!!

Btw, did you ask your brother what made him do it? Taking it to the next level (marriage) with the leo?

Actually, most happy and successful relationships will be saying the same - "you will know when you meet 'the one'" because everything will just fall into place without overanalyzing and over planning it. - "the connection" is different with or without words being said, the heart just feels.



No, I didn't get a chance too. He lives in Germany with his wife (she's German) so I don't get to hear from him often; I could ask my sister in law,though. I actually get to talk to her more lol. I wouldn't really be asking because I want to imagine what it would be like for myself; I just want to know because they are quite a sweet couple, and after he told me how he proposed(they took a trip to a castle, and my brother purposefully dropped her camera from his pocket; so she yelled at him and when he bent down to pick it up, he got on one knee and proposed lol. My brother is hilarious), I always wanted to know since I'm really close to my brother. And then it made me think of how other people probably felt. So, just exercising my empathy, lol.

I met my former husband when I was 17. We dated 5 years till we got married. I was so in love with him, there was no one else who ever caught my eye. The feeling of contenment, looking forward to a family, growing old. Just the feeling of security and deep, deep love.

Sadly, Alcoholism (his) destroyed it all. But I no not give up on love. The only unconditional love I have ever received was from my mother and the only unconditional love I have ever given is to my son. Personally, I dont think its possible to give/receive that kind of love unless its parent/child. I would love to be proven wrong of course....

You would've received it if your husband hadn't became a drunk...because alcoholics don't love thy self how can they love somebody else..
A man can love you unconditionaly...

Agreed. How sad, LadyLeo. Maybe if you'd help him through his alcoholism, forced him to go AA classes.. Alcoholism is an addiction. I guess you never truly loved your husband.
You, my dear sound like an Aquarius. Maybe the Aqua-Leo Axis think like this?
Personally, unconditional love can be given to the spouse. All you do is to see your spouse like your child, and voila! Its not so hard..

That moment when the thought of marrying/spending the rest of your life with them doesn't scare you or give you doubts

That moment when you realize you're eachother's best friend, & companion. Becoming that is the hardest part, therefore signing the papers is just the confirmation to something both people already knew & worked towards

That moment when you realize that this is the best relationship you've ever been in...the moment you look in the mirror & love who you are when you're with him...the moment you see all the ways he's spiritually/physically/emotionally enhanced your life like no other

"That moment" is just something you "know." It comes randomly too & when you're least expecting it. And oddly, your partner will have the same epiphany at the same time
