First serious relationships are scary. Terrifying, actually.

Even when you've been in almost serious relationships before, the first one is a brave step. Most people assume it will be your first among many. But the whole point of getting serious with someone is because you're serious about them, forever.

While many first serious relationships don't last, you're prepared for this one. This one is meant to be. This one is forever, and this is how you know.

1. You haven't been here before. And that's ok. You've had some meaningful relationships. You've dated enough that you know who you are, and who you want. But you've never dated someone in a let them eat the last french fry kind of way. You've never had someone you want to hold at night. You've thought you were in love, but you've never been in love. Not until now.

2. But in some ways, you feel like you have. This is new to you. You haven't bene in love before. But you feel like you've been with this person forever. You forgot what life was like, not knowing them. And you honestly hate thinking about it. This whole love thing comes naturally to you, to the both of you, because it was meant to.

3. You didn't realize it would feel this amazing. You didn't give up on love. You just . . . took some time off. And then he found you. You found him. And your whole world changed.

4. You're totally in sync. And, maybe, if you're so lucky, you both love N*SYNC. That would be the life. But seriously: you just get each other. There's an unsaid understanding. You feel each other . . . when he's hungry, you can feel it. When you look at him with your face like that, he knows that you want a burger, not a salad. When he wants you to hold his hand, you reach for it, without even thinking about it.

5. It feels easy, but it's not. You always knew that love wasn't easy. It's romantic, but it's not a romantic comedy. Your life is not a Disney movie. You have problems. He has problems. You fight. You cry, you hurt. But it feels natural. It feels easy, every bad day is just as wonderful as the good days, because you're together.

6. You don't want anyone else. For a second you, wondered whether you could have this with anyone else. But then you rolled your eyes at yourself, trying to imagine someone better. He doesn't exist. And at this point, even if George Clooney showed up at your doorstep after having walked 500 miles to see you in the rain and confess his love for you, you'd be like, "No, but thanks."

7. And you can't imagine anyone better. You also can't imagine yourself being any better.
