Basically, he is the first guy I liked that liked me back and a month later I still liked him. So after we hit that 4 week mark I knew he was the one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-116570 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 10:23:03 +0000 mrsjyw 116570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>NOPE! I knew with my ex that we were never going to get married. DH is the only boyfriend I ever brought around my extended family/family functions or even daydreamed about marrying one day :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-116539 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 09:43:50 +0000 skibobrown 116539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I almost ended up w/ my previous boyfriend, and I'm so glad I didn't. It would have been a disaster. There were a lot of hints that he was getting close to proposing right before we finally broke up. Once we did break up all of my friends came out of the woodwork and started telling me how bad he was for me. </p> <p>When I met DH about 6 months later I knew almost immediately that he was the man I wanted to marry. He is an amazing partner, friend, and daddy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-116500 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 09:26:42 +0000 LuLu Mom 116500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did think at the time I would marry my college boyfriend. It wasn't until I met DH that I actually "cut him loose for good" and told him I met someone else and it was different this time. We had a strange relationship that looking back was not healthy for me. I honestly think had I not met DH I would still be under his "spell" and settling for someone who took me for granted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-116492 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 09:21:49 +0000 Cchoi4 116492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had talked about marriage/kids with my first serious boyfriend (in college). But looking back, we had a pretty tumultuous relationship that I feel silly even thinking about it now. DH is the 2nd serious relationship I've been in. I didn't know right away that I wanted to marry him, but he treated me so well that i knew he was special. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-116485 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 09:18:10 +0000 mediagirl 116485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. There was never anyone I could have imagined spending my life with other than my husband. He is my one and only. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-116289 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 04:55:48 +0000 cupcakemama 116289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. Even though it took forever it was only ever DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-116286 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 03:33:00 +0000 MissKitten 116286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I believe in "The One." I also believe people can have many "ones." I think it all depends on the person and relationship to be honest. </p> <p>That being said, I knew my SO was "The One" the very first night I met him. It's always been just him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-116285 Tue, 10 Apr 2012 02:30:42 +0000 SugarplumsMom 116285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This post gave me a very vivid dream last night! I was dating the guy that I met right before I left the country (the one I dated briefly and inadvertently made me realize that I truly liked DH, who was just a friend then). In the dream, this guy and I were dating and I was actually pregnant! I have not consciously thought of this guy in ages! But we're friends on FB and his latest gardening pictures must have helped sparked it ... </p> <p>HB, you now affect my dreams &gt;_&lt;! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-115734 Mon, 09 Apr 2012 15:30:07 +0000 Alivoo01 115734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't have many serious relationships prior to the hubby. My last boyfriend wasn't right for me, but I stayed in the relationship longer than necessary. However, I don't think I would have married him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114782 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 17:26:12 +0000 chopsuey 114782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could easily have ended up with either of my exes, but didn't want to settle! I knew DH was "the one" within a week of "meeting" him! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114768 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 17:02:53 +0000 littlebug 114768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely thought I was going to marry my bf right before my husband. I'm lucky I didn't, though - turns out he was kind of a huge a-hole. And my husband is way more right for me than that guy was. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114766 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 16:54:23 +0000 cyndistar3 114766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I didn't move to a different state and met my dh I probably would have just stuck with my first bf. I didn't really think he was the one but I was settling. Then I met dh and I basically immediately knew I loved him and we were talking about getting married within a few months of meeting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114764 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 16:49:11 +0000 tequiero21 114764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought I would marry my first bf because he was my first bf. he was sweet but definitely not the one for me. I knew I'd marry my hubby if he asked lol. We talked about it pretty early in our relationship. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114748 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 15:51:00 +0000 Rubies 114748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When hubs and I started dating I knew we would end up being married. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114722 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 13:37:49 +0000 Mrs. Pen 114722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also believe that one person can be happy and truly in love with more than one person. In many instances, people whose spouses die, do remarry and love the second spouse equally. </p> <p>I dated a guy y first year of college and we were practically engaged. We were planning out wedding for the next summer and everything. </p> <p>But thing went sour quickly and I'm so happy I didn't end up with him. It wouldn't have been a happy ending. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114721 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 13:36:24 +0000 SugarplumsMom 114721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've met my share of seemingly "perfect" guys, but no one fits me more than DH. I don't think anyone else would be as compatible. I had a pact with a friend of mine from college: to txt each other when we found "thee one". I found the one =) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114706 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 13:21:47 +0000 Andrea 114706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, DH and I met freshman yr of college and we pretty much knew right away that we would be married. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114699 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 12:54:53 +0000 heffalump 114699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never believed in "the one." But I did almost end up with my ex, who was not even close to being right for me. He wasn't nice, lied constantly, and is pretty much the complete opposite of what I wanted in a husband. I just didn't realize it then. Luckily he wasn't great at covering up his lies, so I caught him in a big one and that was the end of that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114697 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 12:51:34 +0000 lilteacherbee 114697@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly (and I know this sounds crazy) but I knew I was going to marry DH when we started dating in high school. Within a few months, we were over the honeymoon puppy love stage and it was real. </p> <p>We broke up for almost a year in college and again, I had faith that everything would work out. I dated someone else for about a month, but that was more for my own confidence issues and wanting to have fun than it was to become serious about anyone else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-almost-end-up-with-someone-else-besides-your-so#post-114694 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 12:45:27 +0000 mrbee 114694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I grew up more or less believing in the idea of "The One," but over time I've come to see that some people have many "Ones."</p> <p>Along those lines: did you almost end up with someone else besides your SO? </p>
