What does your significant other do that......

Ayedavanita

1. What does your bf/gf, husband/wife, partner do that makes you feel loved?

2. What do you do that you think shows your significant other they are loved?

3.What are the things you overlook in this person or have forgiven in the name of love?

Doesn't have to be something big, share all the little things too.

1. she humps me
2. I bought her a shoe tidy
3. her inability to leave the toilet seat up drives me nuts!

For me;

1. He acknowledges my existence/right to be/opinions/he laughs at my jokes which are not usually very funny
2. I acknowledge his existence/right to be/opinions/I laugh at his jokes which are not usually very funny
3. He probably moans more than I'd like

My husband and I have been together for 31 years and what makes us feel loved is that we are both very expressive with our love, verbally and physically. We are tender to each other and say nice things to each other. I guess you would say we are pretty "mushy".
We listen and are interested and laugh a lot. He rubs my feet, I his back.
We think ahead as to what would make the other happy. Like we have another old weathered table, he tells me the other day he is planning to make it into another Pearl Jam table for me. He gave me an Eddie one for Mothers Day a few years back, it is one of my favorite possessions. I think that is way thoughtful.
Of course I cook for him and he thinks I'm a real good cook. I'm so so he is easy to please.
He drives- I cook, thats the deal. I like that especially on PJ trips- I don't have to cook but he still drives, I did drive to Columbia though.
One thing a little irksome is he remember things a little different from me or not at all. Like I have this huge pilsner glass- its like 2 feet tall. It says-"Bet You Can't" on it. It was mine from my Mama's house, growing up. He thinks he bought it at a rummage sale. The only way that will get settled is to get one of my sisters down here but its not important just a little bothersome. With us getting older now thats gonna get worse for both of us. Ah yes, the test of time and I feel a little dementia coming on.

that is so very sweet Dimitris, thank you, you always make me happy

comebackgirl

1. He moved here to be with me
2. That's private
3. He loses, forgets and breaks everything

polaris_x

1. the way she smiles at me
2. i talk to her mom
3. her lack of appreciation of frying things in lard

1. She shows interest and confidence in everything that I pursue, and keeps an amazing home for the both of us. Also, she moved to Utah from Georgia to be with me.

2. I'm always keeping her fresh on my mind, even when were not together...and I show it too.

3. The fact that she can't even appreciate Ronnie James Dio...

Jukee

1. Dinners always ready for when I get home from work.
2. I encourage him and make sure he know's I don't think he's a failure (he's been out of work for 10 months).
3. Farting when he pushes so damn hard he almost shits himself literally.

Ayedavanita

Thanks everyone! These are fantastic and exactly what I was looking for. Keep them coming please.

Had to lmfao @ the Dio comment....ewwww!

Ah, you're one of those non-appreciators too eh?

cdp1223

This is definitely a thread I needed to see today...
1. Sounds really banal, but he washes the dishes without being asked (most of the time) and I really *hate* cleaning up. He also scratches my incessant back itches that I can't reach.
2. I always give him the last piece of brie in the fridge, yes I know that sounds stupid, but I really really love cheese! I also moved from New York City to Pittsburgh ( :? ) for him.
3. Like someone above said, he breaks, loses and/or forgets everything that doesn't have to do with his own work. :evil:

Say it ain't so ... I've got it so my finace can now distinguish Rainbow-Dio vs Sabbath-Dio vs Dio ... and she was actually mad when she found out Heaven and Hell came through San Fran and we missed them.

That said, she still will not embrace Dokken.

I was waiting for you to chime in on that.

You've made great progress, might want to hang on to her...but you've obviously caught on to that hence the fiance thing. But believe me, I will forever press on to her the glory that is RJD. I've told her that if things between Ronnie and his battle with cancer don't go so well, be prepared to spend a week in mourning and listening to Dio records night and day.

and about Dokken...good luck bro, I don't think I'll even embark on that road. Maybe you can persuade her by telling her it could be worse, you could be forcing Stryper down her throat... :?

Forgive me for de-railing the topic. :twisted:

Ayedavanita

Yep dc, never been a big Dio fan. However, I DO like Dokken! Or well...did

That's all kinds of wrong! Worst horseplay I ever did to my wife was snap her bare ass with a wet towel way too effectively. It left a welt. I felt terrible. By the way, the term for doing what your husband did was giving you a dutch oven. Learned that from the new Chipmunks movie. :oops:

Thank you PureandEasy for the God Bless, very kind of you

comebackgirl

Been married for a year and together 3.5...still have never heard him fart. I just took it for granted, but now I'm starting to think maybe that's another way he shows he loves me

1- puts up with me
2- put up with him
3- a-I finally quit caring that he uses the refrigerator as a night light
b-I finally quit caring that the toothpaste is the ONLY thing he closes right
c-I block out his CONSTANT backseat driving and put the passenger seat in full recline when he drives.

btw #3 is a recipe for a lasting marriage

Possibly they are silent but deadly ones?

haffajappa

1. Cleans my room when i'm working on a big term project
(and various other times when I'm too busy to clean it)

2. Make him dinner when he gets off the late late shift at work... its still dinner at 1am right?

3.We're both dramatic.

That's just weird as you two should be more comfortable with each other at this point...I don't think I let one rip till about the 4th month, and then the floodgates opened....so you guys hold it in around each other all day and night? fuck that, life's too short ..

comebackgirl

I'm kind of hoping we never get that comfortable :P. Actually I don't think I've ever heard my brother fart either. Or my dad. Maybe we're all anally retentive!
