What's so unique and/or wonderful about your significant other? Their kindness, humour, the sexxx, friendly? I love sitting at cafes sometimes just watching the people go by - couples too - and it makes me glad that people have found each other (even if no relationship is exactly perfect). I often also wonder what they see in each other. And I've ALWAYS loved Valentine's Day despite the commercialism and consumer-craze. I never really can understand why some cannot be simply happy for others.
Kindness, sensitivity, open-mindedness, friendliness... Certainly no relationship is perfect because sometimes he annoys the shit out of me...but I love the way he annoys the shit out of me.
some key ingredients in a guy for me is communication, understanding and loyalty. and he has to like me because he wants to, not because he wants a girlfriend. he has to ADORE me as much i adore him. i hate unreturned feelings. :/
Honesty. I've been with guys in the past who claim to be very honest and open....and none of them were. This guy I'm with now is. He doesn't care that the truth may hurt sometimes....and, though I do get mad about it (But, so does he as I do the same to him) it's always better in the end that he tells me the complete truth....and I do the same for him. Caring. He treats me like porcelain. He always makes sure I'm comfortable....and if I'm not, he makes sure I get that way quickly. When I leave his house, he calls to make sure I made it in alright, and to tell me goodnight. He doesn't try to change me. I've had boyfriends in the past try to change my little quirks....he doesn't. He tells me he's glad I'm me and he wouldn't change it for the world. He waited to tell me that he loves me. 6 1/2 months. That way, he knew he really loved me and wouldn't hurt me by telling me too soon then realizing we weren't meant to be. I like that he didn't tell me after a month or two. He caught hell for it from his friends that he hadn't said it yet. And, he told me in such a cute way. We don't go on dates. Nothing normal. We went out to eat on my birthday and V-Day....but, that's the only kind of 'real' date we've had. We just do things together. He knows I'm not a movie and dinner kinda gal....which works out because he's not a dinner and a movie kinda guy. He watches Lifetime channel with me. It's special....to me. He's just an all around great person and I love him dearly.
Because finding him was finding myself... He embodies the divine masculine, and has reverence for the feminine. A man brave enough to seek and choose truth over ego in everything he does. He is my lover, my partner and my friend. Everything I had experienced in my life was leading to our union. And after all this time, I am still grateful for every day I wake up beside him and every moment spent together. ...And he is the sexiest thing to have graced this earth! I love him. I absolutely do.
what first attracted me to him was how he would listen when I needed to talk about things, without giving advice. Everyone else was busy telling me what they thought I should do. He didn't. He was just there for me when nobody else was. We've been through hell and back because of my health situation and various treatments I've tried for it, and he is still here with me. He is sympathetic. He doesn't understand what it's like to live with chronic pain, but he tries. He doesn't understand what it's like to have had so many surgeries, but he knows that just the idea of going to the doctor freaks me out and the hospital gives me a panic attack, and he somehow helps me find the strength to go through with it. He's not afraid to play with the kids or help with the housework. He's the most amazing father for our children. He's highly intelligent but doesn't put on airs or think that makes him better than anyone else. He's not afraid to work and get his hands dirty. And those gorgeous eyes of his!! I love the way he looks at me, still. I love the way he watches my face when he kisses me instead of closing his eyes, and the way he looks at me when we are making love. you got all day? I could go on....
What do I love about him? Everything! and we have been married for 19 years. We have been to hell and back but we are here together. The problems that we faced made us stronger. He has always been there for me. He knows when to say things and when not to. He is funny and so loving. I adore him. He makes me feel special everyday. we are still learning things about each other...we are growing more now than ever before. He never gives up...always sees the best possible outcome no matter what the situation. He is a great father, husband. I love being with him. My heart still pounds and our sex life is amazing!! He completes me.
I had the very rare and beautiful opportunity to come across other threads/posts that several of you have made in the past where things weren't quite so smooth. It's absolutely makes me very happy to hear of the kind of love in all of your words, and is like listening to music. Sincerely, best wishes to all of you and I can only hope many more others will feel comfortable sharing what they love most about their partners. I understand a fraction of what you all have gone through but nowhere close to the happily and long-married couples here! Congratulations. Christ, I'm a romantic fuck. Though it really does feel like I've been all over the spectrum that it's very difficult for me to think of spending my life with one person at all, day in and day out, and every night. I've wanted it for as long as I could remember as a girl but I frankly don't think it's right for me the more I learn, and it is literally difficult for me to breathe when I think of the amount of time I have to spend with one person. Even so, it's still definitely magical and kudos to all of you.
*He's the only human being I've ever known who can totally handle me. *He loves me for me and helps me change things I hate about myself. *When I got a stomach bug and couldn't eat much, even though he cooked my favorite meal, he didn't get mad at me for picking at my food. *He gives me sweet little surprises, like roses in the passenger seat of the car when he picks me up, or a candy bar when I least expect it. *He braids my hair for me *He's amazingly smart *He can fix my car *He's the best cook I've ever met *When I cry, he kisses my tears, and holds me *Watching him with little kids and animals makes my heart melt *His cute little nicknames for me (Beans and Cutie) *His eyes sparkle when he's feeling mischevious *He told me he was in love with me not three days after we really started hanging out, and even though that freaked me out...how he still says it a year later with the same look in his eyes of absolute adoration. *He loves little subtle public displays of affection-hugs, little kisses, tickles... *When we split food, he always lets me pick my half or gives me the bigger one. *When we sleep in the same bed, he always wakes up periodically to check on me and will cover me up if I look cold. Hehe...I could go on for days, I think. He loves me...and I think that's the number one reason he's so great.
he's understanding and patient, he's sweet and funny and a great friend. he doesn't give up. he braids my hair. he's great with our baby cousin jessie. he likes good music. he's really mellow and laid back. i just love him.
I was just looking at that button "My Threads" and realized I made these awhile ago. I love reading this! Makes me all warm and fuzzy. Right now, I feel loved and taken care of. And just the touch of his hand on my back gives me the shivers.
