To ask for nice things

[OnlyYellowRoses]

about your husband/wife/partner that make you get the warm, fuzzy glow? Or things they do for you that just make you feel safe and loved?

There's always loads of threads about horrible partners but I'm feeling the love on Valentine's Day so thought a nice thread would make for good morning reading 😊

I'll start, together 4.5 years, married 7 months.

He brings me a coffee every morning.
He is always optimistic and sees the good in everything and everyone.
He works hard in the NHS and was incredible throughout Covid.
He's loved my children like his own from the day he met them.
His sense of humour and love of Dad jokes is insatiable.
He can't dance but always goes for it anyway.
He sings, quite well actually but will only do it for me and not in public.
He builds me up when I have no confidence.

Your turn please?
P.S The Daily Mail are wankers 😬

Oh and bonus one about my parents. Been together since freshers week at uni. Dad just turned 70. He said to me the other day “You know, I don’t really laugh out loud a lot at things like comedians or sitcoms. But sometimes your mum just makes a wee comment about something and it sets me off and I can’t stop laughing at it all night”

Just loved that.

When my Mam died, my DH drove 3 hrs just to give me a hug and have a cup of coffee with me. Then he drove 3hrs back home to do a 12 hrs shift.
I love him so much.

He just gets me. Not everyone does, and I will always be grateful that we found each other.

These have all been lovely 🥰

Op I'm just curious, does your dh have kids of his own?

Lovely thread OP. I've got a great DH too. Loads of things I could say, but the example of our 3rd date sums him up...

My brother & SIL were struggling a bit financially when my nephew was a baby. SIL phoned to ask if I could babysit at short notice, as she had the chance of an extra day's work the next day (brother already working). I agreed and called future DH to apologise/explain and ask if we could reschedule.

He said he was looking forward to seeing me and did I want some company babysitting? Cue us taking 1 year old nephew to the park and me changing a poonami nappy on the grass I loved that he recognised the importance of helping family out. And my lot thought he was mad...but we've been together 14 years and he has put himself out many times for us all. As they do in return. I feel lucky I found him after a series of twats!

Aah nice thread.

I'm single but ex DP found out from our lads I'm not well and dropped round some bread and milk and some of my favourite sweets.

Couldn't be in a relationship with him but he's a kind heated person.

What a lovely idea for a thread OP

We've been together 18 years today and married nearly 14 years.

Where to start,he's bloody amazing with my family,my Mum and Dad loved him so much that they'd always introduce him to anyone new as their son,he loved my parents like they were his own and despite being heartbroken when we lost them he held everything together for me and our 5DC and for my big brother and his children,he's amazing with my elderly aunties and uncles and helps out with them and he treats my BFF of 44 years like his SIL.

He's fiercely protective of our 5DC,our DGS and me despite the fact that we only had our youngest together(I had 4DC when we met)he treats all of our DC and DGS equally and they all know that he'll always be there for them no matter how grown they are(4 are now adults)and no matter when they need him day or night.

He makes me feel loved and like I deserve to be loved(previous very abusive marriage and relationship messed me up for years)he always wants the best for us all.

And a huge one is he's really kind and he gets that I like to help people out and he's happy to help out as well.

Sorry that was huge.

I love these threads!

I’ve been with my DP for 21 years and he is just the loveliest, kindest, funniest man I’ve ever met.

He makes me properly laugh out loud every single day and we have exactly the same sense of humour.

He does all the household admin and just basically sorts everything out. He loves travel and spends ages researching, booking and planning lovely trips for us; I literally don’t have to do a single thing to make it happen.

He does all the laundry.

He’s really appreciative of everything I do for him. I do most of the cooking and he makes it very clear how grateful he is. Cooking for people is basically my love language so I love the fact that he really appreciates it.

He brings me a cuppa in bed every day.

He understands me very, very well in a way that nobody else does.

We are interested in nearly all the same things.

We never have big rows. I genuinely don’t think he has ever shouted or even raised his voice at me in 21 years.

We share the same values.

He’s brilliant with my family, even when they’re at their most bonkers.

I absolutely adore him and I know without a doubt that he feels the same about me. From day one, there’s never been any stupid mind games or wondering what he means or how he feels. He doesn’t do drama of any kind, doesn’t mess with my emotions etc.

No, we have been trying but not successful x

Thanks for answering and I so hope things work out for you. I asked because my dh does love my children but definitely not like his own.
