Someone once asked me,

"How do you know when someone

has your heart?" At first, I did not

have an answer. However, as time

as passed, I have an answer now.

I believe it goes something like this. . .




How do you know when someone has your

heart? You know when all of your attention

is on them and only for them. A lot like in the

Twilight movie, Breaking Dawn: Part 2. When

Jacob imprints on Bella's daughter. He then

only sees her amidst of everything else. Then

all of a sudden, everything makes sense. You

come to find that this person has brought

so much to your life.


How do you know when someone has your heart?

You find yourself missing them often. Even though

you are not one to miss people often, you miss

them. In fact, you have to begin to form a new

routine of handling missing someone again.

You have to maintain your daily routines and

not allow yourself to dwell on how you are not

with this person.


How do you know when someone has your heart?

The thought of seeing them excites you. When

you see them, your heart skips a beat and your

mouth and heart both smile.


No matter how tired you are, or how bad of

a day you've had, being in their presence

instantly makes it better. Being with them

feels as if you've been rejuvenated. You

see it as a gift and privilege to just be

by their side.


You get a surge of happiness when you

are out in public and smell a familiar scent

that reminds you of them.


You know someone has your heart when

you find yourself adoring both their strengths,

weaknesses, and even their pet peeves. You

feel safe anytime they embrace you or hold

your hand. You feel as if you could hold their

hand forever, never growing tired of their touch.


You really know someone has your heart when

it is almost impossible to see a future without

them. You don't just 'want' them anymore,

but you need them, like a desert desperate

for just one drop of water.


Even though you have had other relationships

prior, this time, it feels vastly different, in every

possible way.


To care for someone is one thing, but

when it is genuinely given back to you,

it is one of the most pleasant things ever

felt. You know you have it good when it

is God ordained. It is one thing when the

world gives you someone, but when God

gives you your person, nothing can

compare.


How do you know when someone has

your heart? When you feel a thrill when

you see a vehicle that replicates theirs

and you find yourself eagerly checking

the driver seat. When you hear a motor

cycle engine and it reminds you of them.


You know you can trust them with your

whole heart. Furthermore, you feel you

can tell them anything. They make you

comfortable and make you feel heard

and seen. They help you be confident

in who you are and this only amplifies

your ability to be your whole self

around them. You no longer fear them

seeing your ugly.


How do you know when someone

has your heart? You find yourself

speechless with how things have

played out so naturally with you

and this person. How they showed

up into your life out of no where.

For the first time, you are beyond

thankful for a relationship.


To this day, you are still in awe

how something so wonderful

could be happening to you.

Especially when you feel you have

waited almost an eternity to meet

this person. Though they are not

your 'ideal' person, the two of

you couldn't compliment each

other any better.


You know someone has your heart

when you already live a good life,

God has given you much, but ever

since He placed them in your life,

it has only ignited your existence.


If only this person new everything

you've gone through to get where

you are now. If they only knew how

many times your heart and trust

have been broken over the years.

Little do they know that at one time

in your life, you no longer wanted

love. For a while, you convinced

yourself that being alone was better.


You know someone has your heart

when you only want to encourage,

support, and always be there for

them. You both help one another in

your walk with God.


For the first time ever, this is the

first relationship where they aid

you in your walk with God, rather

than pull you away. Unlike other

relationships, they help you

become a better person rather

than turn you into someone

you do not recognize.


You know someone has your heart

when you appreciate and recognize

every single little thing they do. You

cherish how they serve you, putting

you first. It is a God-honoring relationship

where both parties genuinely care for

the other. It is not a selfish love but

rather a selfless one.


Lastly, you know someone has your

heart when you trust one another.

Even when apart, deep down you know

what you two have is unwavering, un-breakable,

and constant, even though your past

relationships were always unbalanced, unsafe,

and un-predictable.



For I believe these are just a few ways

to know when someone really

has your heart.
