It took my parents 5 weeks to get engaged. My dad says that he fell for my mom immediately and thought she was an angel. They’ve been married for 35 years ❤
Yeah my parents fell in love at the first sign when my father was 15 and my mom was 13. Their parents didn't let them date at that age (not wrong) but they never forget each other and got married at 22/20 years old. They are 22 years together But they always say to me: DO NOT GET MARRIED EARLY
@@ikaru5089 my parents met when they were 25 and got married at 26. They were born 12 days apart. Now, my dad says he’s into older ladies for the 12 days before his birthday. Every year. He also still calls her “Blondie” even though she hasn’t been blonde in years.
I don’t think my parents ever liked each other. They just learnt to tolerate each other. I can’t really fault them. My mum is insufferable, and dad is obnoxious. It’s not like any other sane person would have wanted either one of them. So, in a twisted way they are a perfect fit for each other. Edit: Holy shit! This blew up! Lots of people have childhood trauma by parents I guess 😅
Well, at least it made you interesting. You write pretty well so I’m gonna assume you’ve read a lot. Which was probably an escape from your family situation. And seeing how you structured an unorthodox argument, I’m sure you’re funny as hell. Which wouldn’t have happened without a bit of trauma, let’s be honest. So yeah, at least it wasn’t all for nothing. You came out of those hardships and the world’s better off for it.
My wife knew she wanted to marry me within three weeks of meeting. Actually, probably quicker, but it took her three weeks to say something. I had been through a bad breakup with a woman I had been with for two years, so I was, "Whoa there!" We dated, but then my job took me to another state. We stayed in touch. I dated other women in my new location, but eventually I realized I was pining for her. So I proposed on the phone and mailed her an engagement ring. I left my job (it was short-term and over anyway) and I traveled back to her. We got married 23 days after we were reunited. Three years passed between when she wanted to get married and we actually did. That was 37 years, two kids, and five grandchildren, ago.
It took me a while to start liking my bf. He said he liked me when he first met me. But idk I just think you need to actually know a person before you can have feelings for them.
I think the same, it of course depends on the person but in my opinion I could never date a person after I knew them for one/two months. Claire's six month is what works for me
Agreed, but you guys seem to be either amalgamating Love and Like OR have two tiers of Like (casual and passionate). You can "like-like" someone early on-- it's just still easy to start to dislike them. It took my now-wife (2 months married this week!) under 2 months to find herself emotionally bursting to say she loved me (she knew before though). It took me 3 months, and a couple of arguments (you don't know it's love until you've seen each other at low points), but she was my first I said I loved (not the first time I've been told I love you though).
Jeeez, my gf would ring my ass if she read these comments. Maybe 6-7 months for me as I was worried about stupid things that she’s proven we’re stupid to worry about. I’m very thankful for her as we’ve been together for 5 years and can fully say I’ll be marrying her. She feels the same way; only downside about it is she’s always expecting a ring so there’s little to no surprise for whenever I get on my knee 🤣
It is different for everyone My boyfriend told me after two years he loved me. He said he probably did all along he just didn’t understand what love was. I loved him after one year together. The thing is he treated me like he loved me the entire time so I guess I knew before him. Now we’re talking about living together. His brother is getting married after one year. His parents married after 3 weeks. Never compare your relationship with others as long as you feel loved!
My fianceé and I knew right away nigh on nine years ago... which subsequently led to both of us dealing with being shy in our own ways... she became mystalker. But that's fine! I waited my whole life for someone to care that much.

It definitely depends on each person if and when they fall in love. But for the most part I think that initial attraction and interest is either there or it's not🤷♀️

My dad and mom are an annoyingly sweet love story of instant soulmates. Its like the notebook, i swear, the ending and all! And its even weirder because it shouldnt have been possible: she just came from being cheated on by her high school sweetheart turned fiance and was very heartbroken/ unwilling to trust, and dad was a total womanizer.... the last person who shouldve been able to win her over. And they're total opposites-- she's the sweet patient angel while he's allergic to showing emotions (Surpisingly, they did a good job of using each other's love languages though. He told her he loved her, and she did little acts of sevice-- they both knew that's what the other wanted.) My dad always said how he knew after the first date. He literally walked out of that date thinking "I'm going to spend my life with her". (Apparently, there was something there for both because they discussed spending the night wasn't an option cuz she was off Brth control). I honestly never believed my dad because he's just not a loving person. It didn't matter what happened, he wouldn't show or admit love. But then when I was 10, my mom got diagnosed with a horrendous rare disease with no hope other than 3 organ transplant (which has a 95% chance of failing). It's also a sneaky one. The symptoms don't slowly progress, giving you warnings she's getting worse and nearing the end. She had a friend that had no symptoms, then had a heart attack and died 2 weeks later. My dad stuck with her, shouldering all the chores she could no longer do. Even if it was hard and frustrated him, it wasn't important to him. After she died, he said he wished he had figured it out before she got sick: that he "didn't care how, as long as he could be with her. Money, trucks, toys-- none of that was worth fighting her over."
Nah bro you’ll find someone. Go to the gym get a haircut make sure your fashions on point anyone can be at least a 7. Even if you think you’re the ugliest mf out there anyone can be a 7. Then it’s just trial and error until you find the right girl. Just can’t give up yk
My husband and I were acquaintances to friends for about a year and a half, didn't talk for 3 years, became best friends within 2 weeks of reconnecting, and then I fell in love with him a few months later. A few months later he realized that he had feelings for me, and then a few more months later, nearly a year after we reconnected, he asked me out. We've been together nearly 7.5 years and married 5.5 of them.
People don’t realize that true love isn’t always at first sight. I personally think that most strong relationships stem from a foundation of a strong friendship beforehand. 😊
this was exactly my experience 😭 people are different, and for me i knew that i wanted to be with this man, but would keep going back and forth on it. ive had many times where i felt like i truly knew, and other times where i genuinely had no idea. now that i know him well, i just can’t deny it anymore.
the truest thing about relationships and "love" that ive ever heard is that love isn't necessarily just the butterflies in your stomach or the heart ache you get when you're apart, its the willingness to forgive after an argument or mistake, the effort to makeup for a blunder or lapse of judgment, its the work taken to keep a relationship from crumbling into pieces before either of you even knew what was built. True love is effort and work, beyond the minimal and above the expectations
Funny story: a guy approached me first day of 8th grade because I was being "boring" (walmart/hand me down emo reading Poe in a corner, so original I know) and I thought he was cute instantly. We become friends, my best friend takes time to warm up to him but they seem to have a lot in common and he ends up asking her out a year later. She asked me what I thought on the matter before she answered him and whole it hurt a bit I didnt know why it hurt (figured it was just "another friend getting a bf but syill not me"), didn't tell her that, and just told her to go for it if she wanted to. Well I dont remeber if she was a no show or not but I know when they talked again she was like... "yeah actually we have TOO much in common... you like girls..." and he's like "ok cool, thats actually great cuz I'm not sure how far this would've gone cuz your kinda a bro." I don't find out the rest of the story until a year later. See he thought I was cute when he forst approached but that I was clearly in a dark place and didn't know why. Especially when I turned out to be a perky person and welcomed him into my friends group of 2. But it turned out he had more in common with my best friend and didn't think I liked him because I was shy, oblivious, and thought someone liking me was impossible... so he asked her out. Our friendship grows during the school year and I go visit fam for the summer but we keep in touch. I start to figure out I like this guy. My dad loses his job because budget cuts across the industry he works in due to some government decision and I might have to move permanently but I don't find that out until the end of summer. Guy asks me to a movie and I say yes for when I get back. Turns out the guy is talking to his friends about our agreed not a date and the friends are waiting for him to put 2 and 2 together. I get back, we go to the movie and then Dad tells us we may have to move. I'm heart broken and finally I acknowledge my own feelings but am still in the mindset that no guy likes me. I tell my friends that I might move and we are all bummed. He tells his friends and is all bummed and they are like "dude really? You only talk about her a lot just ask her out" "but she might move" "so not definitely?" "But what if it ruins the-" "why would it? Y'all talk about everything already and if it does ruin it she might move." "Idk, I-" "chicken shit." He set up a group outing with me and my best friend and secretly asked her not to show. Asked me to be his gf and I legit forgot how to breath until he panicked and was like "JK!". Now I'm a little disappointed but wondering if I should bring it up. I tell my older sis and she laughs at me and feels bad for him cause I spooked him. His mom encourages him because "You said she's shy right? And that she's iffy on the whole idea of love outside of fiction?... yeah she panicked. You didn't get a no and she didn't laugh at you so try again." Two days later he asks me out after school in the rain. We'll 10 years later we got married and we are about to celebelrate our 3rd anniversary so yeah. We knew but we didn't know? TLDR: We each thought the other was cute but took way too long figuring out we liked each other and have been together nearly 13 years.
To be clear, men leave stuff behind so that they have an excuse to go back later. Women don't usually do that. I don't think I've laughed quite as hard though with the whole 6 months you were already preg....tically engaged by then. Nice save, Dad
My mom saw my dad and was like “what a jerk” he wasn’t mean or anything but he strolled in all confident with his long hair, his guitar, he played in the band.. and I think she was married or recently divorced when they first met
funny how that works. when my husband met me, he knew instantly that he liked me, but i was still observing him to be sure he was a good guy. we got engaged after 3 months, then married 4 months later. in the engagement period, i was still skeptical and had my doubts, but then remembered a quote i heard about choosing a guy that loves you more than you love him because that's the one that will treat you right. 2 years later, it couldn't be more true and i have no regrets ♡ yes, it did take me significantly longer to like actually fall in love with him too, but my initial decision to marry him was based off of the fact that our values and future goals aligned, and i was just really comfortable to be myself around him.
I dont think my parents ever liked each other. They had an arrange marriage, my mom was very opinionated and loud but was mentally prepared to be agreeable and likeable after marriage and my dad wasn't man enough to even have an opinion of his own, he always followed his elder brother, but tried to be more independent after marriage. They both initially just tried to fit in with each other. Its 20+ years now, they are more open about how they are, can be emotionally open to each other, enjoy each others company, share jokes, and have built a great friendship with each other. But who loves whom? My mother thinks she loves more, she sacrifices more and she expresses more through gifts, and planned surprises, spoiling him with his favourite things and saving to book for him a day off to home. Whilst my father is emotionally unexpressive, he thinks he loves my mom more and just isn't able to express it enough, while she doesn't realize it. He praises my mom indirectly, avoids arguments, tries to subtly express his care when she feels down, and is kind to her. They refuse to acknowledge each others love, but are content with each others companianship and friendship rn. And Its the hardest to see both the sides oh so clearly and still be unable to show them each others love through my eyes. They just have different love languages!
Instantly liking someone is called infatuation. Actually liking someone because of their character is appreciation. Choosing to commit to said person is love. Letting your emotions drive you into a relationship is how most toxic marriages and/or early divorces happen.
My mom and dad were so in love in the beginning. My mom complains a lot about my dad, I've heard so many horrible stories and so many reasons why she shouldn't have stayed, but I will never forget the look on her face when she told me about how hard she fell for him.
My dad in sophomore year after knowing my mom for two weeks looked to her in chemistry class and said “I’m gonna marry you one day.” She Ofcourse thought he was crazy, but after 29 years of marriage she can’t say anything lol
I asked my mom how she ended up with my dad and she just said that "he was always there" I did the math. She was pregnant with my big brother😂 but they're still together after 25+ years so a win is a win.
My parents knew right away. My mom never wanted kids or to be tied down, but she always say the first time she laid eyes on my dad when he met her for their first date she wanted to have kids with him immediately…💀 Idk about love at first sight but definitely family orientated at first sight😭🫶🏻
Hold up, Claire gave it up to Phil even though she didn't really like him. Either A Phil has serious game or someone back in the day was a little bit (fill in the blank)
It’s not that she didn’t really like him. The feeling of knowing someone is the one is not the same as having a crush on someone. They went to a concert and Haley was conceived at said concert in a car 😂 they liked each other but Claire didn’t realize she loved him until later
My parents are truly soulmates. They were both their first bf and gf, they have not broken up and after 5 years together they got married and now they are almost 19 years married. They are both 40. I just love my parents love story🎉❤
That’s why it’s called falling into or falling out of love or “like”, my parents both say they used to love each other, now it’s general hatred and they’ve been divorced for 15 years…😅
Idk but me personally, if I don't fall immediately, it doesn't last long. Chances are, I just got bored and needed love and affection and these "feelings" always pass after some time...
same :/ like unless I’m literally obsessed with them the second i meet them i can’t fall in love down the line. I’ve tried to on multiple occasions and it just never works out and ends up in me breaking someone’s heart so honestly why bother trying
My husband and I met online and about two weeks in when he was really drunk on the phone one night he goes “you don’t know this yet, I’m going to marry you.” I thought he was just drunk but 8 months later he actually did marry me lol
A post told me my boyfriend was the one so i told him and we end up dating. Was actually multiple post saying stuff like the person you are talking to right now is the one and i just took it as a sign.
Naw. You can date way before that. Do what I did. Have a rule to not Marry someone until 2 years, or in my case two of the same holiday, have passed. I used a dating app to meet my now-wife (2 months married this week!), even though she really didn't seem up my alley and I sent her a "Like" just since she was really pretty and was sure I had no chance. It took under 2 months to find herself emotionally bursting to say she loved me (she knew before though). It took me 3 months, and a couple of arguments (you don't know it's love until you've seen each other at low points), but she was my first to who I said I loved (not the first time I've been told "I love you" though). Date around, but don't get serious unless you're exclusive. That's a takeaway I'll share.
I'm married for like 1.5 yrs, I'm still in the process of falling in love with my husband. He was very un-caring, irresponsible and very immature type of person but he is changing which matter the most to me. I hope I'll be able to love him properly in the future.
hey, take your time! it's exactly the same with me. after 2 years, i'm finally starting to feel real attraction and love for the guy that i married. personally, i think that it's good and more real when love grows slowly as opposed to unrealistic "love at first sight". that might work for some, but definitely not everyone. gals like us are just more cautious and want to be sincere with our emotions.
I’ve only ever had one relationship like Jay’s talking about, and even then it took a few days of talking to each other after school to know that we liked each other
My dad said he fell for my mom the moment he saw her. Truly love at first sight. My mom said she initially agreed to go out with my dad because he had a career and wasn't bald. It took her 5 months to figure out his personality was pretty good too 😂
I love how the duration just keeps getting longer from 1 month to 6 months lols
And for all of the different durations there's a "yikes " from someone else lol
Remember the longer the marriage the longer it took😅

this was exactly my experience 😭 people are different, and for me i knew that i wanted to be with this man, but would keep going back and forth on it. ive had many times where i felt like i truly knew, and other times where i genuinely had no idea. now that i know him well, i just can’t deny it anymore.
the truest thing about relationships and "love" that ive ever heard is that love isn't necessarily just the butterflies in your stomach or the heart ache you get when you're apart, its the willingness to forgive after an argument or mistake, the effort to makeup for a blunder or lapse of judgment, its the work taken to keep a relationship from crumbling into pieces before either of you even knew what was built. True love is effort and work, beyond the minimal and above the expectations
Funny story: a guy approached me first day of 8th grade because I was being "boring" (walmart/hand me down emo reading Poe in a corner, so original I know) and I thought he was cute instantly. We become friends, my best friend takes time to warm up to him but they seem to have a lot in common and he ends up asking her out a year later.
She asked me what I thought on the matter before she answered him and whole it hurt a bit I didnt know why it hurt (figured it was just "another friend getting a bf but syill not me"), didn't tell her that, and just told her to go for it if she wanted to. Well I dont remeber if she was a no show or not but I know when they talked again she was like... "yeah actually we have TOO much in common... you like girls..." and he's like "ok cool, thats actually great cuz I'm not sure how far this would've gone cuz your kinda a bro." I don't find out the rest of the story until a year later.
See he thought I was cute when he forst approached but that I was clearly in a dark place and didn't know why. Especially when I turned out to be a perky person and welcomed him into my friends group of 2. But it turned out he had more in common with my best friend and didn't think I liked him because I was shy, oblivious, and thought someone liking me was impossible... so he asked her out.
Our friendship grows during the school year and I go visit fam for the summer but we keep in touch. I start to figure out I like this guy. My dad loses his job because budget cuts across the industry he works in due to some government decision and I might have to move permanently but I don't find that out until the end of summer. Guy asks me to a movie and I say yes for when I get back. Turns out the guy is talking to his friends about our agreed not a date and the friends are waiting for him to put 2 and 2 together.
I get back, we go to the movie and then Dad tells us we may have to move. I'm heart broken and finally I acknowledge my own feelings but am still in the mindset that no guy likes me. I tell my friends that I might move and we are all bummed. He tells his friends and is all bummed and they are like "dude really? You only talk about her a lot just ask her out" "but she might move" "so not definitely?" "But what if it ruins the-" "why would it? Y'all talk about everything already and if it does ruin it she might move." "Idk, I-" "chicken shit."
He set up a group outing with me and my best friend and secretly asked her not to show. Asked me to be his gf and I legit forgot how to breath until he panicked and was like "JK!". Now I'm a little disappointed but wondering if I should bring it up. I tell my older sis and she laughs at me and feels bad for him cause I spooked him. His mom encourages him because "You said she's shy right? And that she's iffy on the whole idea of love outside of fiction?... yeah she panicked. You didn't get a no and she didn't laugh at you so try again."
Two days later he asks me out after school in the rain. We'll 10 years later we got married and we are about to celebelrate our 3rd anniversary so yeah. We knew but we didn't know?
TLDR: We each thought the other was cute but took way too long figuring out we liked each other and have been together nearly 13 years.
Damn this should be a movie
A roller-coaster of emotions
Ya everyone is different I guess, some ppl know sooner/right away, some take a little time
Took me seven months, we moved in together because I couldn’t bring myself to say I wasn’t ready when he asked. Best decision I ever made.
7 months? Yikes
Leave that poor man, please. He deserves better.
@@goliat56 dude take care of your own relationships. Tf are you bitching about when the comment ended on a happy note?
@@goliat56 why? They love each other now

Haley starts laughing when Jay said he loved Denny's. I love how they all seem to have fun making the episodes.
To be clear, men leave stuff behind so that they have an excuse to go back later. Women don't usually do that. I don't think I've laughed quite as hard though with the whole 6 months you were already preg....tically engaged by then. Nice save, Dad
My mom saw my dad and was like “what a jerk” he wasn’t mean or anything but he strolled in all confident with his long hair, his guitar, he played in the band.. and I think she was married or recently divorced when they first met
The family discussions are so gooood... 😇😇
funny how that works. when my husband met me, he knew instantly that he liked me, but i was still observing him to be sure he was a good guy. we got engaged after 3 months, then married 4 months later. in the engagement period, i was still skeptical and had my doubts, but then remembered a quote i heard about choosing a guy that loves you more than you love him because that's the one that will treat you right. 2 years later, it couldn't be more true and i have no regrets ♡ yes, it did take me significantly longer to like actually fall in love with him too, but my initial decision to marry him was based off of the fact that our values and future goals aligned, and i was just really comfortable to be myself around him.
I find it funny how Haley is smiling in the back after Jay delivers the, "I love Denny's." 🤣
I dont think my parents ever liked each other. They had an arrange marriage, my mom was very opinionated and loud but was mentally prepared to be agreeable and likeable after marriage and my dad wasn't man enough to even have an opinion of his own, he always followed his elder brother, but tried to be more independent after marriage. They both initially just tried to fit in with each other. Its 20+ years now, they are more open about how they are, can be emotionally open to each other, enjoy each others company, share jokes, and have built a great friendship with each other.
But who loves whom?
My mother thinks she loves more, she sacrifices more and she expresses more through gifts, and planned surprises, spoiling him with his favourite things and saving to book for him a day off to home. Whilst my father is emotionally unexpressive, he thinks he loves my mom more and just isn't able to express it enough, while she doesn't realize it. He praises my mom indirectly, avoids arguments, tries to subtly express his care when she feels down, and is kind to her.
They refuse to acknowledge each others love, but are content with each others companianship and friendship rn. And Its the hardest to see both the sides oh so clearly and still be unable to show them each others love through my eyes.
They just have different love languages!
I love Gloria accent so much😂
Instantly liking someone is called infatuation. Actually liking someone because of their character is appreciation. Choosing to commit to said person is love. Letting your emotions drive you into a relationship is how most toxic marriages and/or early divorces happen.
One knows instantly and one need time. This is what keep couples together.
Preg-practially engaged to me.
Pregnant. Pregnant.
If you meet the right person; bang!
Pregante
Gotta love Alex being sarcastic throughout the series
My mom and dad were so in love in the beginning. My mom complains a lot about my dad, I've heard so many horrible stories and so many reasons why she shouldn't have stayed, but I will never forget the look on her face when she told me about how hard she fell for him.
I love the transition with "yikes" 😂😅🤣
I started liking my husband months after meeting. He knew instantly when we met that he would marry me. And here we are lol
Hahaha. Instinct. Met him thanksgiving 2020. Scheduled for a church wedding this new year 😁
I met my Fiance and "liked" him instantly; bit it took me a year of living with him to really like/love him.
I really needed this right now. 😢
Old Asians be like
“Love? Ha.”
Or just people in bad marriages?
Haley in the background just cracking up.
My dad in sophomore year after knowing my mom for two weeks looked to her in chemistry class and said “I’m gonna marry you one day.” She Ofcourse thought he was crazy, but after 29 years of marriage she can’t say anything lol
That chemrizztry
Haley's smile after Jay's joke.
I asked my mom how she ended up with my dad and she just said that "he was always there"
I did the math. She was pregnant with my big brother😂 but they're still together after 25+ years so a win is a win.
Phil..6 months?? You were already preg...engaged!!! 😅😂😂😂😅😅
My parents knew right away. My mom never wanted kids or to be tied down, but she always say the first time she laid eyes on my dad when he met her for their first date she wanted to have kids with him immediately…💀
Idk about love at first sight but definitely family orientated at first sight😭🫶🏻
Hold up, Claire gave it up to Phil even though she didn't really like him. Either A Phil has serious game or someone back in the day was a little bit (fill in the blank)
Remember the firemen episode?
Exactly
Did you wanna Say whore?
I think claire got accidentally pregnant with haley, so they decided to give a try
It’s not that she didn’t really like him. The feeling of knowing someone is the one is not the same as having a crush on someone. They went to a concert and Haley was conceived at said concert in a car 😂 they liked each other but Claire didn’t realize she loved him until later
I agree, she was [blank].
Another genius scene :) preg..tically engaged… ace 😂
My parents are truly soulmates. They were both their first bf and gf, they have not broken up and after 5 years together they got married and now they are almost 19 years married. They are both 40. I just love my parents love story🎉❤
That’s why it’s called falling into or falling out of love or “like”, my parents both say they used to love each other, now it’s general hatred and they’ve been divorced for 15 years…😅
"by that logic I love Dennys"
chick in the back starts cracking up😂
Haha Alex😂
I SO LOVE ALEX'S HUMOR
Idk but me personally, if I don't fall immediately, it doesn't last long. Chances are, I just got bored and needed love and affection and these "feelings" always pass after some time...
I relate to this more than I'd like to.
same :/
like unless I’m literally obsessed with them the second i meet them i can’t fall in love down the line. I’ve tried to on multiple occasions and it just never works out and ends up in me breaking someone’s heart so honestly why bother trying
i’m fair sure in other parts of the series Gloria said she knew with Jay right away lol
1 month to like, 5 years to engage. 🤷🏻♂️ Going to get married next month ❤️
Congrats!
Jeez Phil, Mr I can think on my feet 😂
"Mmmm Nice save dad" 🤣🤣
My mom never liked my dad she just wanted a kid
Don’t be my mom
I knew immediately he took 2 YEARS of denial!! Now he’s obsessed
By that logic I love Denny's. Pure comedy gold
ITS MINI FLUFFY
The “yikes” after each bit and by different characters is genius writing ✍️
My husband and I met online and about two weeks in when he was really drunk on the phone one night he goes “you don’t know this yet, I’m going to marry you.” I thought he was just drunk but 8 months later he actually did marry me lol
Hailey smiling at the Dennys joke in the background
A post told me my boyfriend was the one so i told him and we end up dating. Was actually multiple post saying stuff like the person you are talking to right now is the one and i just took it as a sign.
Wait whaaaat. I like someone when my heart say even in one sec. wth.
Took me two years to love my boyfriend back too. I'm extremely slow.
Yikes
“By that logic I love Denny’s” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Me who’s decided I’m never going to date anyone unless I’ve known them longer than two years but even then might not be really wanting to date :😎💅✨
Same. I don't trust the representative. I want to know the real person.
Naw. You can date way before that. Do what I did. Have a rule to not Marry someone until 2 years, or in my case two of the same holiday, have passed.
I used a dating app to meet my now-wife (2 months married this week!), even though she really didn't seem up my alley and I sent her a "Like" just since she was really pretty and was sure I had no chance.
It took under 2 months to find herself emotionally bursting to say she loved me (she knew before though). It took me 3 months, and a couple of arguments (you don't know it's love until you've seen each other at low points), but she was my first to who I said I loved (not the first time I've been told "I love you" though).
Date around, but don't get serious unless you're exclusive. That's a takeaway I'll share.
Phil’s save though😂😅
I took me 1.5 month to like my partner, we’re still going strong after 1 year, might not sound a lot but it is
I feel you. 6 months was enough to know I would marry my wiife. 2 months in is shirt but we're so strong.
Claire always gave Phill a hard time
I'm married for like 1.5 yrs, I'm still in the process of falling in love with my husband. He was very un-caring, irresponsible and very immature type of person but he is changing which matter the most to me. I hope I'll be able to love him properly in the future.
hey, take your time! it's exactly the same with me. after 2 years, i'm finally starting to feel real attraction and love for the guy that i married. personally, i think that it's good and more real when love grows slowly as opposed to unrealistic "love at first sight". that might work for some, but definitely not everyone. gals like us are just more cautious and want to be sincere with our emotions.
yikes
Why the hell are you married if you don't love him?
@@AustinSamson-mg9ks arranged marriage
@@arunita8990 oof.
Good one Alex. Nice save dad. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Took my 10 minutes to fall in love. Took him 2 weeks. Took me a year to know i wanted to marry him. Took him 2 weeks.
I find that really funny
I’ve only ever had one relationship like Jay’s talking about, and even then it took a few days of talking to each other after school to know that we liked each other
Love how they all know exactly how long it took em. Wasn't a gradual thing, just woke up one day and suddenly felt attraction for em
Preg-tically hahahahahahahhaa
My mom left the state when she was pregnant with my sister. My dad found her bad begged her back, she finally married him when I was 2 😂😂
The subtle one is that Jay knew instantly that he loved Gloria.
His face when she said a month was hilarious
Pregtically engaged 😂😂😂
I like how each of the people who got stumped said “yikes” to the next person‘s amount of months 😲💀
I'm with Alex, nice save Phil, so subtle. XDXDXD
that kid looks like Mr. Iglesias 🧍🏽♀️
Pregticallyyy 😂 😂 😂 😂
My dad said he fell for my mom the moment he saw her. Truly love at first sight. My mom said she initially agreed to go out with my dad because he had a career and wasn't bald. It took her 5 months to figure out his personality was pretty good too 😂
“Hmm nice save dad” preg-tically doesn’t even make sense😭
Good job Phill
"By that logic i love denny's"
But who doesn’t?
