You know you're in love when that person is the reason you're okay no matter what. You know you're in love when two of the most stubborn human beings alive get frustrated with each other yet still tell one another they love each other so much through gritted teeth. You know that you're in love when your heart freaks out and races faster than ever because you've missed your significant other more than anything. You know you're in love when you miss him before he's even gone. You know you're in love when you can still feel his touch and the sweetest kisses. You know you're in love when your heart beats faster every single time you see him as if it was the first time. You know you're in love when a stranger stares at you from across the room and can't help it because he's just astonished that you're even in his presence.  You know you're in love when he calls you just because he couldn't wait any longer just to hear your voice or when he waits for you to miss him enough to call. You know you're in love when you get over protective and jealous so easily of what has his attention. You know you're in love when you already plan to spend the rest of your life with him. You know you're in love when you make a box of memories because every moment with him is special and it deserves to be remembered in a special way. You know you're in love when he checks on you just to make sure you're okay. You know you're in love when you're in bath and body works and they ran out of sample papers and he offers you his hoodie to see if you like the smell , then regrets it when it smells horrible. You know you're in love when it's hard to concentrate because he's all you can think about. You know you're in love when he constantly reminds you that he loves you and that you're his princess and he's never letting go. You know you're in love when he says he's willing to wait for you because he believes you're worth it. You just know he's the one because you're in love. You know you're in love when you just don't know what to write about him because words just aren't enough. You know you're in love when you're up to one in the morning writing and thinking about him. You know you're in love when you blow up his phone but he just thinks it's cute. You know you're in love when he loves your sass and tries to keep up with it. You know you're in love when he shows he cares and reminds you not to forget or doubt it. You know you're in love when you need him. You know you're in love when you can't imagine what life would be without him. You know you're in love because he's your everything, world, heart, all, dram queen, diva, baby, universe, moon to your stars. The list goes on and on. You just know he's the one you want to marry and build a life with.  You just know you're in love and that he's the one because of the endless smiles he provides, the stomach drops, the butterflies, the red checks and ears, the unbelief that you got everything that you've ever wanted, all the heartbreak and pain in the past isn't there anymore because he makes it better. You just you're in love because of him
