30 Lovebirds Describe What It Feels Like To Find Your Forever Person 

4. Someone who knows you better than you know yourself. Who has taken the time to know you. Who you love beyond words but can also infuriate you very easily because they know how. It’s giving someone else the power to hurt you, to be capable to hurt you, because they know all these things about you. They know your mind – the things that make you happy, sad, angry, anxious, the things you’re interested in and the things you love and hate. They know your body – all the places to touch, kiss, that make you shiver and get you hot. The places you’re insecure about and the places that are sensitive. The parts you take care of and the parts you don’t. They know your heart – what really gets to you, that side of yourself you only show to them, they own this part whether they know it or not and whether you like it or not (If you’re truly in love with them) and if they are truly in love with you they’ll take care of it and guard it as much as you do. They know your soul – If they really are a soul mate. They’ll see parts of you you didn’t even know you showed them and those parts, to them, are what make you, you. They see the true parts, the real you.

And they’ll accept all of this, because they love you, and if it’s something they struggle to accept, but still love you anyway, they’ll probably help you grow.

5. It’s a constant rollercoaster of elation and wondering wtf you’re doing. Sometimes you are so deeply in love you couldn’t possibly imagine there are other people living with you on earth, you’ll stare at this person and feel your heart wrench in disbelief that they even exist. You’ll have someone that you want to share everything with, food wont taste as good without sharing it with them, and things will really feel complete.

Sometimes you’ll want to smother that motherfucker with a pillow because they’ve been an unreasonable asshole for a day or so. You’ll feel unappreciated, hurt, rejected, and even wonder why you’re continuing at times and you’ll fight with this person like you’ve never fought with anyone else.

If you’re really lucky you’ll love them so fiercely that these times wont completely disconnect you, and you’ll find ways to fight for their love and adoration. Don’t lose yourself in someone else, it’s easy to do and then resent them for it happening.

Most of all be as open and honest as you possibly can, be willing to forgive but not be run over, and when it gets tough think of what made you love them in the first place.
