1. You\u2019re on each other\u2019s family email chains and group texts.<\/p>\n
2. Your gifts have gone from “luxury item you’d never buy for yourself and an elaborate treasure hunt to find it” to “hey here’s something we need around the house and oops sorry I forgot to wrap it.”<\/p>\n
3. If her friends can’t get ahold of her, they’ll just text you. Same thing.<\/p>\n
4. You actually can\u2019t remember the last time you were invited to something as an individual rather than a unit.<\/p>\n
5. You share a laundry bin.<\/p>\n
6. Your friends and family aren’t at all shy about asking when you guys are getting married (like, maybe they should be shyer…please make them be shyer)<\/p>\n
7. You know each other\u2019s passwords to basically everything.<\/p>\n
8. His mom calls you more than she calls him.<\/p>\n
9. The phrase \u201cwhen we\u2019re married…\u201d regularly occurs in conversation.<\/p>\n
10. You spend all of the holidays together.<\/p>\n
11. You say \u201cwe\/us\u201d more often than \u201cme\/I.\u201d<\/p>\n
12. Her nieces and nephews call you \u201cUncle.\u201d<\/p>\n
13. You\u2019ve adopted all of each other\u2019s mannerisms and catch-phrases.<\/p>\n 14. You could easily program her DVR to all her favorite shows without her help.<\/p>\n 15. You’ve been known to accidentally nuzzle or loudly state a really weird inside joke while waiting in line for coffee or airport security because you forgot you were in public.<\/p>\n 16. He would never remember to send his sister a birthday card if it weren\u2019t for your reminders. Or his mother, for that matter.<\/p>\n Related: 7 Signs Your Engagement is Right Around the Corner<\/p>\n 17. You can casually say things like “let’s please never name our child that” without creeping the other out.<\/p>\n 18. You think he\u2019s proposing every time you go on vacation together. Actually, basically every time he gets down to tie his shoe.<\/p>\n 19. You’ve made up words together (or adopted one of the other’s made up words) and use them so regularly in conversation you’ve forgotten they aren’t actual words.<\/p>\n 20. She\u2019s automatically invited on your family vacations and vice versa.<\/p>\n 21. Your secret Pinterest board is overflowing with engagement rings and dress ideas.<\/p>\n 22. You barely notice each other\u2019s bad habits anymore. What chronic nail biting?<\/p>\n 23. You go out in public in your gross gray sweatsuit because you genuinely aren’t trying to impress anyone anymore.<\/p>\n 24. You\u2019re not afraid to be totally weird in front of each other.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
