I'm going to be 23 on June 25th, and my boyfriend is 30.  We have both confessed to loving each other.  We have the same favorite hobby (texas hold 'em) and we play in a group every night (free poker).  
We enjoy each other's company and even have the same pet peeve (misspelled words).  
He says that I'm the most genuine person he's ever met.  Also that he trusts me very much.

He is very attentive with me (which I love).  Last night at the poker game, we were at separate tables, but he made me laugh, just the same, from across the room.  

He's intelligent, handsome, attentive, a leader, compassionate, loving, a friend, and incredibly sexy.

How do you know you truly love someone?  I'm having a hard time trusting my feelings.  I don't see him ever hurting me (emotionally or physically), but trusting has always been an issue with me.  I trust him.  I don't trust myself.  Hard to explain.

How do you know you truly love someone?

Now THAT was pitiful and ironic - on my part.  Forgive me, and I'll let him know that I actually CANNOT spell.  He's not going to love me anymore. LOL  JK!

Take this with a grain of salt because I have zero experience in the matter, but from what I've observed, you're supposed to just KNOW.

Another big thing I've always heard is that you learn to love the little flaws about them that would normally piss you off or annoy you.  Also, they allow you to be yourself and you don't feel like you're holding up any walls around them.

Then, look to the future.  Can you see yourself spending the rest of your life with him?  Can you picture the two of you old and wrinkled and nasty but still in love and siting on the couch watching Wheel of Fortune?

That's love.

You can just look into your partners eyes and see the sparkle in their eyes if you truely love the person. You know you love the person when, you don't get bored of that person, you can be around that person 24/7 and not have a complaint at all. You know you love that someone when that person gives you " goosebumps " or makes you smile constantly. You know you love that person, when that person knows all the right things to know. But the thing is, you know you love the person, when you know you can trust the person with your entire heart, no matter what.

Both "misspelt" and "misspelled" are acceptable ways of saying it.

This is a pretty good description.

I'd maybe even tack on that you know it is the real deal when you love someone with the flaws rather than despite their flaws.
