After a few years in the city I got my dream job—writing about weddings for a magazine called 7 Days. I had to find interesting engaged couples and write up their love stories. I got to ask total strangers the things I'd always wanted to know.
I found at least one sure answer to the question "How do you know it's love？" You know when the everyday things surrounding you—the leaves， the shade of light in the sky， a bowl of strawberries—suddenly shimmer with a kind of unreality.
You know when the tiny details about another person， ones that are insignificant to most people， seem fascinating and incredible to you. One groom told me he loved everything about his future wife， from her handwriting to the way she scratched on their apartment， door like a cat when she came home. One bride said she fell in love with her fiance because "one night，a moth was flying around a light bulb， and he caught it and let it out the window. I said， 'That's it. He's the guy. '"
