"I Felt a Spark." Do You Believe in Fate?
This time, we would like to introduce the “I Felt a Spark” series among the many submissions. The definition of “I Felt a Spark” may vary from person to person. * This time, however, we will define it as “a special feeling that only comes when you meet the destined partner you will marry,” sharing episodes of those who felt, at first sight, that this was the one!
Do you believe in fateful meetings...? ♡
① “I thought, ‘Oh, I’m going to marry this person.’”
What was the moment @yuka.kota87 wished to marry?
When I first saw my husband, I thought, “Oh, I'm going to marry this person.” I used to think people who said such things on TV were just exaggerating, but I truly felt that way. So more than wanting to get married, I often think I’m glad I did.
Still... when he came to meet my parents after we had been dating for just a week and clearly stated, “I want to make both Yukari and my son happy. I am confident I can make you happy,” when I saw his profile, I thought, “With this person, I can be happy together. I want to be with him forever.”
I realized there’s no one else who would meet my parents so soon after just a week of dating, and treat my situation—including having a child—with such understanding. I am thankful every day for meeting my husband. He is truly kind and loves both me and my son so much. There is no greater happiness. Meeting my husband has shown me that there can be such joy in my life.
② “I fell in love at first sight.”
What was the moment @t.t.wedding717 wished to marry?
I asked my husband instead ❤️ We met by chance in a store and ended up having dinner together, starting our relationship from there—it was essentially a pickup line. ⇦ At first, I thought he would have a wife and kids. I couldn't believe he hadn’t dated in seven years. He looked a bit intimidating and I was completely drunk.
However, he turned out to be very honest, incredibly kind, and truly pure.
When I asked him, “When did you think about marrying me?” he said, “I fell in love at first sight. I knew when I first met you. And when we went for dinner for the first time, I thought I would marry this girl.”
Hmm... ❤️ He’s cuter than he looks ❤️ Every time I reflect on our beginnings, I think I want to cherish this innocence as we grow old together ❤️
③ It was discovered that we are distant relatives!
What was the moment @mkmimk wished to marry?
We were in the same class in high school, and since we had the same last name, we sat in front of each other. When we joined the same club, he was there too... lol
I gradually began to notice how calm and dependable he was, and I had a crush on him for a long time. In the spring of our sophomore year in college, we finally started dating. Initially, I thought he was calm, only to later learn he was just shy, but my feelings didn't change.
About a year into our relationship, we began casually talking about our future together. Being together felt so easy and enjoyable, and I was flooded with those happy feelings.
However, after being together for nearly five years, what I think now is that I want to marry him simply because I love him the most. To ensure we could marry, we never stayed over at each other’s places during our relationship, and we had to say goodbye every night, which felt really lonely. I wanted to be together every day, and we both worked hard to get married soon.
I graduated from junior college and started working, while he studied hard in university to become a medical technologist.
When I was feeling down from work, he would say, “If you think it’s too tough, you can quit because I’m here,” and every time I cooked for him, he would say, “It was delicious. Thank you, as always.” He is such a kind partner.
In just over a month, I will be able to live with the person I love. When our families met, we discovered we are actually distant relatives, which made me think that we were meant to meet each other.
④ "One day, if we have a child, I’ll tell them they're the second one I love most in the world."
What was the moment @___oritan.o___ wished to marry?
Before we started dating, my husband had said he would only date someone he wanted to marry! I felt the same way, so our relationship was centered around the thought of marriage.
But I had a few moments when I thought, “I want to marry this person!” Let me share the first time I felt that way... ♡
Since I was little, I always told my friends, “I want someone who thinks I’m the number one, and the child would be the second one they love.” You might think that's selfish!? But I guess it was influenced by my parents.
My father loved me dearly and was very attached, but I could tell he treasured my mother even more, and that made me really happy. ♡ It's just like the song “Lion Heart” where it says, “One day, if we have a child, I’ll tell them they’re the second one I love most.”
And then, one day, not even a month after we started dating, during a phone call with my husband at night, he said, “Even if we get married and have kids, you are still my first love. Because I have a blood relationship with the children, I have to love and cherish you even more.”
I hadn’t even shared my ideals yet, and I was so overwhelmed and happy that I thought, “I absolutely want to marry this person.”
A year and a month into our marriage... I feel that my husband will surely make this ideal come true!
⑤ Exactly ten years since the shocking love at first sight
What was the moment @39_92_131s2 wished to marry?
I met my husband in junior high school. He was a senior.
The day before the cultural festival in my second year, I was waiting at the entrance for my friends who had finished their club activities. While people-watching, my husband walked right past me, and I was so surprised!
Because he had the kind of face I really liked!(laughs)
Wow, he’s so handsome! I didn’t know someone like this existed in my school? Who is he?... ( ˙o˙ ) I stared at him for several seconds while he walked by.
I thought I’d found a super handsome guy that day! What luck✩ but then the next day, at the cultural festival!
There was a band playing, and the one playing the guitar was the husband I had seen yesterday! How could a handsome guy play the guitar? I was so excited ☺️❤︎
From that day on, I couldn’t get him out of my head, and I decided I wanted to date and marry him! At that time as a junior high student, that was the moment I wanted to marry him! ✧︎*.
I completely liked him just for his looks? lol Such a simple reason, but I truly experienced love at first sight☺️ lol
I had never spoken to my husband before, yet I boldly went to give him chocolate on Valentine’s Day, and even confessed to him at graduation (which did not go well?)— the determination I had at that moment was remarkable ( ˙◊︎˙◞︎)◞︎ (almost a reckless challenge?).
It has been exactly ten years since that shocking love at first sight? We have been dating for eight years. I never thought I would be able to marry someone I have loved for so long, and I am so happy! ❣️ I participated in this project as a commemorative act ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈)
The photo is of me with my husband, who introduced me to rock music, and it's from a live show of SIAM SHADE that I have come to love because of him⑅◡̈
⑥ “I felt a jolt and decided to marry.”
What was the moment @mw_0827 wished to marry?
We met through social media. When I tell people this story, they are always surprised, but I honestly feel that we met in a fateful way, and I’m so glad! lol
From the first email I received from him, I thought, “Oh, this person is so kind and sincere… I can’t wait to meet him.” We met for the first time two weeks after our email exchange. ♡
I was so nervous, waiting at the meeting spot, when I saw him coming towards me, hurrying across the street. In that moment, I thought, “Wow! He’s so handsome! (♡ >ω< ♡)” I was internally so excited, but I tried my best to hide it. lol
However, later I found out that he also thought, from the time he first emailed me and when we first met, and during our first date conversations, “This is someone I want to marry!”
Our first date included lunch, and then we went to a botanical garden where we had a pre-shoot just the day before to enjoy cherry blossoms?? After that, we just didn’t want to part ways and went for a night drive to see the night views, finally saying goodbye just after midnight??
This picture was taken with a selfie stick at Wakakusa Mountain while enjoying the cherry blossoms. It was my first time taking a picture with someone I wasn’t dating yet!! lol
But I really wanted to capture that memory in a photo. I was super embarrassed to say it, but I managed to get it out! ✨
Now, I think I’m really glad I had the courage to take that photo and preserve the memory of that day ♡
Even though our first date lasted so long, it was filled with happiness, and I wanted to create more memories together, that moment was when I thought, “I want to marry this person!”
He felt the same way, and afterward, we started dating with the premise of marriage, and on our first anniversary on May 10, 2016, we will register our marriage! It’s coming up soon ♡ So exciting ♡
I used to think that a “jolt of love” was impossible, but it truly exists. We are both most surprised by this. Yet I am grateful to have had this fateful encounter. Thank you, God! ✨?✨
Dramatic and Romantic ♡ It’s wonderful to meet someone you can truly say, “You’re the one!”
We shared the stories of six brides who met their destined husbands and thought, “This person is the one I want to marry!” in the #I Want to Marry This Person moments. Their encounters feel as if they are tied by red threads, a fateful and romantic meeting. May you all continue to live happily ever after! ♡*
