Do you think this statement is true?
I recently read a book by Mitch Albom in which he says: "Every life has a one true-love snapshot", and it got me thinking.
I do believe it is true, my snapshot is the moment when my now husband was driving us back from the movies (while we skipped a class in College) and we both started singing the song on the radio...something clicked just then and I knew I was in the face of true love.
If you do believe it is true, what is your snapshot?
One question for true romantics?
I believe that's true! I remember a time when I was sitting in the car with my now fiance, then just dating. We were out just walking through a park trying to think of something fun to do that night. Then we heard a rustling in the bushes and something making a weird growling noise. Well we stood there for a moment and then it stopped so we kept talking and out of the corner of my eye I see something crawl out of the bushes I screamed and he ran right into me and knocked me down! So for some reason I screamed louder and he jumped in front of me, waiting to see what the mysterious creature was! It was a Possum, we both felt like idiots and he turned around to help me up. As soon as I stood in front of him, we looked at each other and laughed, then I just leaped into his arms and there is when I knew he was gonna be the one. I still feel that warm, safe feeling when I hug him now. I still relive that moment in my head every now and again, I'll never forget it. I'm happy you asked this question! Thanks for reminding me of that, because I believe that we often take those few moments for granted!!
Reply:I think it's deffinitely true. I think sometimes there is a moment in your life when you realize this is it. This is the one, this is the right thing to do. It's a fabulous feeling i'm sure. I have not yet had that feeling or had my "snapshot". But I know one day it will come!
Reply:not true
Reply:I'm not sure if it can all be summed up in only one snapshot. I do believe that there are moments in our lives with our true love that reinforces the feelings and confirm it in our hearts that we are truly in love. One of my "snapshots" happened just this past year at a Christmas party. My husband of 21 years winked at me from across the room. I felt my knees go weak.
Reply:so true my was when a friend of mine was taking me to this one guys house to set us up and we got in a wreck when i step out of the car the man that hit us and i was looking at our cars and we looked up at the same time right into each others eyes we have now been together for 5 years and married for two
Reply:I dont believe in true love, there is a ton of men who would sing a song with you
Reply:Its personal, no reason to share it.
Reply:i don't have a snapshot. i have a photo album.
when he introduced my kids as his stepkids prior to even getting married. when my kids asked to call him just to talk to him before we got married. when he corrects any person from calling me his girlffriend to his wife. when my son asked me when are we getting married. when he has a look of horror on face everytime something upsets me.
my horror snapshot moment was waking up next to him naked after a night of way too much drinking and trying to sneak out of his house. now how is that for a memory??
Reply:this will sound gross but here goes....it was my 30th birthday and we had been out clubbing for a while with a bunch of friends...well after 20 something friends toasting it up in a bout 4 clubs ,..i was getting pretty smashed...one friend suggested we hit one more club then call it a night...well, when we all gathered at the place...i knew i couldn't make it...i turn away..and i told my then boyfriend of three days...i was going to throw up....he pulled me to his chest...covered me with his coat, and started walking me away... and whispered in my ear..."You can throw up on me... no one will know what happened.."
He didn't want me to be embarrassed, on that special night...Well thankfully i couldn't get it to come up....
Reply:that is so sweet, I have not had my moment yet but I will gladly wait for it now, thanks
Reply:i believe it is partly true, and that the statement should read "Every life has AT LEAST one true-love snapshot." For me, I am lucky enough to experience one, when I first met my wife. And I think those who have experienced this once in their life is blessed. However, there are those who have truly experienced it more than once. An example is my aunt, who loved her husband more than anything, and i know her "true-love snapshot" was in college when she dropped her books and her husband helped her with them, and they eventually got married. Unfortunately, he passed away with cancer, and left her a widow with two sons. She was able to go on with life, thinking she can never love another. Well, she met a man after 15 years, and they are now a happy couple for the past 10 years. She does not love him like her first husband, but I think she loves him as much.
Reply:No. I think that there are an infinite number of snapshots if you will. Maybe it's because I've been married 18 years but I couldn't boil that down into one shot. There are so many moments I couldn't list them all.

Reply:Okay, it is a picture of me and my trusted friend in a huge black pickup truck outside a bird store...
His pet bird died...I went with him to get him a new cockatiel..We did a lot of talking...he confessed his love for me...
By the time the bird was in the house I was his.

Private joke. So I think so, but I disagree that there is just one. I think there are many, there are in my marriage.
