How did you feel after your first date with your significant other that made you think the relationship could become something more serious?

We got along so well, we had a second round of drinks. Our conversation was really interesting and engaging. There was some sexual attraction too, as he wanted to kiss me.

It felt comfortable and easy and natural.
Couldn’t stop smiling. Felt natural
Because unlike most of the men I had dated to that point, he was confident in himself and treated me like he wanted me in his life, rather than needing me.
He walked me to my car and didn’t try anything. Just said “text me when you’re home safe”. Instant green flag. I remember thinking “damn, this one’s different”😁
We started talking and completely lost track of time and only stopped because we got kicked out of the pub we were at as it for closing for the night.
Conversation flowed so easily! My face hurt from smiling. Floated home afterwards. Eight years later, still going strong.
I was crying with what I will call relief after he left because I hadn’t felt so much easy, comfortable presence from someone in so long. This was about a month after seeing each other and eventually it clicked for me.
To just enjoy someone’s presence and know he feels the same. That he won’t judge me and I can be fully myself. It was so comforting for my soul
He made reservation at the restaurant. I like a planner. And he shared his food with me.
Immediately felt right. Safe. Couldn’t stop smiling. We went out again the next day and basically never stopped being together.
Then we broke up 3 years later soooooo what do I know 😭

We knew each other from when we were teenagers and reconnected in our late twenties. The first thing he did when I was getting out of my car was throw his hands up like he was making gang signs, he then made a joke about how I looked like I “walked into Narnia” when I walked into the coffee shop first and didn’t know where to go, he cracked jokes and didn’t take himself seriously and told me to text him once I got home so he knew I was safe, text him after the date and he replied “thank god you weren’t kidnapped, was kind of looking forward to our next date” which made me blush, laugh and gave me butterflies all at once.
Fast forward 2 years later and we have a beautiful 9 month old daughter with our wedding in 2 months time 🥰
We kept talking through text when we weren’t with together like friends that have known each other for their entire lives. Nothing was left off the table in our conversations, and hanging out was just comfortable. I fell pretty hard and quick with him, he’s my best friend.
