What sweet things does your DH do, that show he loves you?

[KenIsAnAccessory]

Would love to hear what yours do, that make you feel loved?

Mine buys my favourite chocolate and hides it round the house so I find it when I'm doing chores. Makes me smile every time.

He's learning to play piano and picks songs he knows I love, to learn, so that I enjoy listening while he practices.

He empties the dishwasher every morning whilst I shower.

Grinds coffee and puts it in the pour over on top of my favourite cup before he leaves for work. Walks up to the shop even late at night if I happen to fancy a glass of wine or a snack. Goes along with whatever my current obsession is, usually house decorating related (buys endless tester pots and lets me talk about slight differences until even I am bored). Eats vegan food, even the cheese 😂

He watches my shit (to him) TV programmes because they make me happy even when there is something he'd prefer to watch.

Like right now.....I've got miss Marple on.....he bloody hates it but its one of my comfort programmes.....

All the housework.

Believes in sharing the load.

And he also said last night that it makes tidying the kitchen ( its his job - we divide stuff up) bearable if he thinks about me coming down to make my tea in the morning in a clean kitchen and being happy it's all tidy.

Ah these are lovely (most definitely single here, maybe this needs to be the bar to meet for any future offers 🤔😂)...

The foot rubs, oh the foot rubs. The man is a wizard.

He gets up before me and puts my dressing gown on the heated towel rail and brings it to me when I get up so it's toasty and warm.

Learned to cook my favourite meal even though he doesn't like it much himself.

Leaves silly little post its on my desk to cheer me up when I log in for work.

Listens to me and remembers things, this is the most important to me. Like when we were dating a million years ago I mentioned I loved a discontinued candle that you can't get hold of anymore. Last Christmas he'd managed to track one down on eBay and bought it for me, because he remembered that one stupid tidbit I told him years ago. Melts my heart.

He makes me a pot of tea every morning, so I remember to take my pills. If I'm away, he texts me.
He does the dog walking and everything every day, it's optional if I join in.
He saws up wood and lights the stove when I'm feeling cold, and during winter.
He brings me a glass of red wine if he thinks I'm looking a bit pale.
He does the majority of the shopping and always includes little treats for me.
He has a daft song that he sings if I'm feeling ill, to cheer me up.
He always tells me when the Snooker is on.

Makes me decaf coffee every night, if I look tired offers to do my turn at cooking, warms my side of the bed before i get in when it's really cold. Makes me feel looked after, as I hope I do for him.

Makes me tea in the morning.

If I’m blue, he’ll do anything to make me laugh
Yes to the feet warming in bed and mine are freezing
If there’s something I’m worrying about with the kids, he’ll talk it through with me and take the load from me
He drives because I hate it
He makes me sing along in the car, making up his own words until I’m helpless with laughter
He never queries what I spend ( never has even in the poor days) because ‘ You clearly deserve it ‘
I love the very bones of him and have for 40 plus years

Mine is pretty rubbish with gifts that require thought or imagination so I have to remind myself of his love language, which is mostly food and beverage related. He always puts a glass of water on my bedside table at night too even if we don't go to bed at the same time. Our work lives have changed over recent years and now he does more daily household chores than I do (I still do the Christmas and birthday plans though!)
He's also a brilliant and attentive dad - the kids are very lucky

Sat here crying. We’re nearing our 25th anniversary (I’m only 43!!) this post is making me realise just how little my DH knows about me and what makes me happy. Yes, he hoovers and drives me places when needed as I don’t drive but he doesn’t really do gestures like bringing me a glass of wine or chocolates or just making me feel good when feeling down. He can be quite selfish and unkind towards me but he’s extremely kind to others. In fact he’s currently giving me the silent treatment for last 5 hours as he’s not happy about me needing to travel abroad to see my father who is having health issues.

It’s nice to hear how wonderful and kind men can be.

One car between us , he works further away - if it's bad weather he always leaves me the car and walks .

My best mate now lives abroad and is back in the country for a few days - completely without prompting, he insisted on taking a day's annual leave to look after DD so I could go on a madcap midweek dash to see my friend.

I don't get any of this but then I'm not sure I do anything of note for him either.

Every spring my DH buys me the first bunch of daffs he sees along with a big bag of popcorn. Which is a throw back to our first date as pisspoor students where he rocked up with these and we watched a movie. Then I get daffs every few days until the shops don't sell them anymore.

No matter what, I know I'm his priority. If I message him and say I need you home right now, he will be there ASAP without asking me a single question.

He changes the food trap in the dish washer, cleans up after the dog, deals with stomach bugs , empties the bins etc without being asked as he knows I don't like to do it.

He rubs my feet and calf muscles on the couch every single night. No matter what we are doing in the house , if I pass him a pair of socks he will just put them on my feet for me. I think this started when I was diagnosed with an auto immune disease and it just carried on. It's lovely. HE is lovely.

Gets up with the kids both days of the weekend to let me sleep in after I sleep/feed all night.

Brings me sweet treats home from work when they're in his office

He fills my water bottle up whenever it is running low so I never have to think about it or do it myself and it truly feels like such an act of love

Nothing. Absolutely nothing nice at all.

He’s an equal partner, he does what needs to be done like I do so I don’t carry the mental load.

He makes excellent plans; holidays, dates, just a random Sunday - he will plan us something fun and nice to do

He runs the shower for me so it’s warm when I get in and then lets me go first because then I don’t have to scrape the shower screen.

He’s a big, broad manly type but in the past two weeks he’s called me from the end of the garden twice, once because there was a beautiful rainbow and once because the moon looked cool…

Mine gets up with the kids if they come through with a bad dream in the night 95% of the time. He trained them while I was pregnant with younger ones to 'let mummy sleep' He's fabulous (and does other things too, but that means a lot)

He is mindful of my insecurities and tells me he loves me, I’m gorgeous, he’s never going anywhere, does nearly all the housework, fixes everything I break, goes shopping, makes me tea every morning, cooks and cleans up more than me, brought my children up and gave my son an incredibly kind male role model.

We alternate making morning coffee. Lots of silly text messages but it makes me feel supported. Strokes my hair most nights as I lie on the sofa. Tries his best with the housework. Likes me and makes me feel safe.

Oh I've thought of another one. He always cuts me flowers from the garden. And has taught the kids to do the same.
