When is the last time a man positively surprised you?

I hope that this thread doesn’t exist already!

I thought it might be nice to have a place to post positive and mundane anecdotes, because we spend a lot of times venting our anger at men 😆
I had a positive experience yesterday, and it made me pause and think about this.

I got a flat tyre on my way home yesterday. Now I am a bit prone to anxiety and hopeless with anything mechanical, but checked it I had a spare tyre in the boot before calling someone.

While I was rooting through the boot a car pulled up and 2 men got out and asked what the issue was. I actually felt scared because I was nervous already and because it was 2 of them there. Anyway, one of them changed the tyre for me and the other one backed off a bit because he seemed to realise that I was a bit uneasy. And that was it! They had only stopped to see if they could help and it saved me waiting around for a long time.

The one who changed the tyre was a bit of a cf and gave me his number in case I get stuck somewhere or wanted to go for a coffee, but I got to admit that this was funny 😆

So go ahead, let’s have a place for the little things in life that made us smile.

I'm pregnant and have been craving lychees for the longest time. Every fruit stall or supermarket I've gone to I've asked if they have lychee in and they state that they don't or it's out of season.

The other day I received a parcel and my husband handed it to me. I was confused because I hadn't been ordering anything. When I opened the box my husband had found a place that received lychees from abroad and had got them for me. Best surprise ever and I haven't had the craving since demolishing the whole box 😂

Feeling very blessed and grateful
