you complete me

Soulmate love confession

You complete me is a declaration that someone fulfills what was missing in your life—that you were incomplete until they arrived.

The phrase became a romantic cliché after the 1996 film *Jerry Maguire*, where Tom Cruise delivers it as a climactic love confession.

It's now used sincerely in wedding vows and ironically to mock excessive romantic dependency: He gazed into her eyes and said, "You complete me." She handed him the TV remote.
