The first time he looked me in the eyes & truly expressed to me how much I meant to him & that he was going to take care of me because he loved me that much! He told me that I'd never been with a man like him before & that he was going to show me what it was like to be with a real man!! I felt so safe & special & loved for the first time!
I feel emotionally close all the time! Our souls connect brah
I felt close when we went on our walks, there was no kids making noise. It was just us walking and talking getting to know one another.
I don't know how I feel about that answer...
I've felt close to him while we were doing things together, accomplishing tasks side by side... Noisy kids included.

I enjoyed all our time together. But emotionally we were setting the stage for where we are now.

The day we got married
When I shared something private n embarrassing n thought he'd look at me in disgust but he didn't he talked to me n loved me- times like these he is so wonderful, makes me fall deeper in love
All of the time... But especially when we're talking about something serious
When we were in hongkong. Sitting in the taxi while he had his arms around my waist.. And the days and nights after that.. Every time i was with him, i felt really close.. We're far away now, yet i can feel that we have this thing called connection and i could never explain
I tend to always feel emotionally close to him, it's what makes our relationship so special.
When I curled up in bed after the movie, the physicality
Last night. Laying in bed, hearing his heart beat
All the time; especially when I discuss things in my past that have hurt me. He helps me make sense of things and move on
When I found out I was pregnant and we having our first girl.
When we are slumped together in the floor trying to amuse our 2-year- old at 8pm and waiting for bedtime!
When I was hurt really bad and he held me. Even though he was the one who hurt me . When he said he'd promise to not hurt me anymore
when he finally defended me and stood up to his mom saying how much he loved me.
