What’s something your OH has done recently that has made you think “wow, they must really love me!”

[DevilsKitchen]

We’ve just had a new kitchen. It’s been a stressful time. Used the new (expensive) oven for the first time last night and was disproportionately devastated to immediately get grease in between the glass door layers.

This afternoon my husband took it apart so he could clean the inside and put it all back together for me. He HATES any kind of DIY but there he was with a YouTube video and an instruction manual.

What’s something your partner has done recently that has made you think “wow they must really love me”?

Hung my period pants out to dry after I washed them!
😆

Met me at the car with a golf umbrella as it was tipping down and I was going to wait it out

Goes out in his pjs to shut the hens in if I've forgotten

Makes things like dog kennels and goat sheds and chicken houses despite not wanting any of these animals (and doesn't complain)

I wish we had more threads like this.

Last night after a 12 shift my husband came home and saw me asleep in our bed like a starfish. He slept on the sofa because I looked so comfortable he didn’t want to disturb me.

When I had my hysterectomy my DH donned a pinny and waited on me hand and foot, even giving me a little bell to ring if I needed anything! He's a gem.

He can make me laugh, even when I don't want to. Pokes fun at my accent mercilessly.

On my period, sore and feeling rather sorry for myself as I've recently gone back to work after mat leave and have been missing the kids. He's done all the laundry, cleaned the kitchen, hoovered, and made all of todays meals plus the washing up so I could spend today with the kids playing and being silly without interruption from real life.

He's done both kids' baths and let me do stories and cuddles before bed.

I just come down to find He's done the pack lunches and has the bags ready for tomorrow. Plus, made me a coffee just the way I like and has given me the last slice of cheese cake!

Feeling well and truly loved and spoiled right now.

Unfortunately he seems to be two timing you as my husband though...

My husband let me have both lie ins this weekend and took the afternoon off a few days ago during the week because I was ill and had been up all night with the baby.

My DH never leaves the room without asking me if I need something, and he'll get whatever I ask for.

He also makes sure he tells me he loves me every single day, we've been together almost 20 years and he's never missed a day. Even if it's just by text message.

Got up early on his birthday with the toddler and let me have a lie in. Then made me pancakes and a cuppa ready for me coming downstairs. He's a good un' most of the time 😊

Supported me through post natal depression and anxiety, including 2 hospital admissions. 3 years down the line I am still suffering massively and it impacts every part of our lives but he gets up every day and goes to work in a hugely demanding job. He encourages me, cooks wonderful meals when we are together at the weekend, gets up with our daughter in the night and is always thinking of ways to try and help me. The fear that he will leave me eventually has been overwhelming at times, and I’m not sure how much he can or will endure going forward but I can safely say he loves me.

What a really lovely thread this is! Just what I needed today. 🌹

My husband gets up at 4:30am for work, does a very hard, physical job all day, comes home and more often than not, cooks the dinner. Yet he still manages to be sympathetic and caring if I mention that I'm tired!

Just to say, since my first post near the beginning of this thread, my OH has not been able to evaporate clouds using their mind. I have concluded therefore it is likely they have some form of 'ECD'.

We are at Glastonbury this weekend and depending on whether your preference is traditional mud and rain, or hot sweaty-stinky body functions, I am afraid they may only be able to help half of you.

Love reading these. Also makes me a bit sad. Been woth my OH for almost 26 years. When we were newly together he was so kind and considerate. Isn't now. Keep hold of them ladies. They're not all like it.

Not sure if this is allowed as she isn't a partner but my friend came to where I work, collected my car, took it to the garage and got the slow puncture fixed for me and dropped it back to work. She used my card to pay for it but the issue was I couldn't leave work so couldn't get it fixed myself. When I was away for a few days she went to my house, had lasagne with my teenager then took him to his hobby and went back two hours later to pick him up.

@Daisy12Maisie people always underestimate the importance of platonic love - sounds like you have a lovely friend. How lucky you are!
