How did you know it was getting serious

[Kyla]

I knew it was getting serious when our conversations involved a lot of "us," "ours," and "we," instead of more individual words. We also started discussing the future.

Jay and I first met in college and a love relationship didnt develop until after he left back home. We cared about each other deeply for a long while and wouldnt just mess with our friendship for something that wasnt real. So I think we both knew going into it, that it would have to be serious in order for it to be strong. Long distance isnt easy but its definitely worth it.

i kinda knew really early into our friendship, which was barely a friendship since we immediately started out by flirting with each other. we were just really flirty, and not just in a silly kind of way, a way i knew would turn into something more.

sometimes you just know. you don't even have to say anything, you just know when it's nothing serious, or when it could/will turn into something else

Well, CD, I knew it was getting serious when one night, he came over to my house after he'd been out at a party (I lived closer to the party than he did, like right around the corner, and I loved when he'd come by late ) and he was very drunk and very honest, and kept saying that he was completely crazy about me, thought I was incredible, and didn't know how on earth he'd landed me. It was pretty adorable, and that was when he first told me how mad for me he was!
And LD, I guess it got more serious like "we're going to make this work" when I had an interview at an art college in Vancouver. He knew I'd been thinking about going to that school when I get back from my 2 year UK stint, and he lived in Vancouver for about 4 months one summer. He kept talking about how he loved it there, and was dying to go live there again... So when I mentioned I'd been offered a spot at the school, I said very cautiously, "You know... when I think about moving to Vancouver then, I've kind of been picturing it with you coming with me..." and he said "Why do you think I've been going on about wanting to move back there??" Hehehe

I knew it was getting serious when he invited me to spend a week in San Fransisco with his family. He wanted me to stay in a hotel with him and be with his family for a week. It was pretty big! But I jumped at the chance. <3

I found out it was becoming even more serious when he flew me out to Florida to spend time with him and his mom.

For me, it was when I realised that I loved him more than anything. I gave him up once and I soon realised I didn't love anyone else and wasn't interested in anyone else... It's very individual.

We were CD before when I was living in his country and I had a planned departure date of January. I had some problems with my living situation there and I found out I might have to leave about 5 weeks early. When I told him, he got really quiet then just hugged me and started crying. He just held onto me for the longest time and said he just wanted to take advantage of every day he had with me. I did wind up leaving when planned and our goodbye was so sad, but this moment really stands out in my mind. We were already a couple at that point, but this is when I realized he was something special...this was a person that was totally dedicated to me and worth fighting for.

I'd say it was a gradual process more than anything. When he told me outright he wanted to marry me someday though, it certainly affirmed the fact that we were serious indeed
