Rayna, my parents knew they were in love with each other after spending an evening together talking when they were 16 years old. My dad spent a few years overseas in the Army and his love for mum didn't fade. There's no such thing as "out of sight; out of mind" when you're in love. Mum worried about him every day. They got married when they were 21 and they've been married for over 43 years... and they're still in love... and they still worry when the other is away. That's part of love. I'm glad you have that in your life now.
