(Happy topic!) Are you still excited to see your partner each day?

[BrightNewLife]

I'm loved up and in a wonderful new relationship after a toxic (12 year) marriage.

We've been together just over a year. I still can't get over how happy I am to see him every time we meet... and vice versa. We don't live together and I know this is the honeymoon period, but I did wonder if this EVER lasts?!!

To those in long-term happy relationships, do you still have this wonderful buzz?

I'm pretty much a realist, we have our share of life issues, divorce, exes, and over 5 kids together so its not always a bed of roses, but this guy just makes my heart sing.

I'd like to hear happy stories from happy couples!

[JonesyAndTheSalad]

Yes. We've been together for 14 years and I still get a bit sort of embarrased when I see him after he's been at work.

Embarrased probably isn't the right word for it...like a bit silly or something!

[throughgrittedteeth]

Jonesy I get what you mean - he makes you all daft

[Almostfifty]

33 years and we still kiss hello and goodbye and he lifts my heart when he comes home from work.

[HiMyNameIsUnknown]

Been with DH around 8 years, he makes me laugh & smile every day

[clarinsgirl]

Together 24 years, living together 20 years, married 8. He's always made me melt and still does.

[Mulberry72]

We've been together 15 years and married for 12, I still get butterflies in my tummy when I hear his keys in the door, I am absolutely head over heels in love with him

[Mumtobe12]

Almost 2 years married together for 7 and he still makes my heart melt I'm very lucky. Yes we have arguments etc but honestly still very loved up

[justwanttoweeinpeace]

We have a toddler so it's more relieved than excited at the moment

[CountryCaterpillar]

Oh I think I more with back here. Wouldn't want to not be with my husband but don't get giddy amd excited everytime I see him!
Obviously missing out!

[BackforGood]

Thank goodness countryCaterpillar - I was beginning to feel a bit lonely on this thread . Don't think this thread reflects most peoples real lives though.

[CountryCaterpillar]

Ah we can sit in the corner together back! I so hope it's been selective responses.from those that affirm the premise. I hope you're right about reallyl life....!

[Francks]

Gosh well done all you lot. This thread makes me realise I should have given up 15 years ago!

[mayhew]

I look forward to seeing him every evening. I smile when I spot him when we meet in town. If he's away, I feel a bit lost and sad. 32 years

[ProseccoandPizza]

Been together just under 18 months and living together for 13 months. My only other serious relationship was 4 years of hell although it lead to DS. Every time DP gets undressed I can't stop smiling. He's gorgeous inside and out, everything I ever wanted in a man. Still kiss him at the door every morning and evening!

[ImogenTubbs]

I don't know if I'd call if butterflies in tummy-level excited, but I really really look forward to seeing my DH even at the end of each day. He works away a fair bit and I do get properly excited, however, when he's coming back. We've been together 9 years, married 4, 1DC, and are happier than ever.

Congrats OP. Sounds like the real thing.

[BreatheDeep]

15 years together, 7 living together, 5 married. Still excited to see him, still look forward to him coming home. Can't believe my luck every day.

[BeautyQueenFromMars]

Been together 4.5 years, married nearly 3. I don't know about feeling excited every time I see him, but even just a glimpse of him lifts my spirits. I do clock watch between me getting home and him coming through the door, and I miss him when we're apart, even if it's just for a short while.

It's still strange to me to feel this way, as I have been treated very badly in the past and had vowed to not let another man near me. Approx 6 months later, DH cured me of that .

[Crumbs1]

27 years married, 34 years together and yes.

[Forgettheworld]

Yep, only been together over 3 year but I still get a flutter when I hear him come through the front door. My parents have been married 35 year and my mum says she still gets excited to see my DF

[MummysMaison]

4 years with my DH and he is my everything we have a fantastic relationship. I can't wait for every day with him.

[niceupthedance]

Yes, if I get home before dp I'm always disappointed and can't wait for him to come through the door.

[Sallystyle]

Yep.

I had a 6 hour shift this morning and was really happy to see his face when he picked me up. Not just because I left work but I just love seeing him.

[Goforit2017]

I didn't know people felt like this! I have had a few butterflies in the early stages but never in a long term relationship.

[Sillysausages007]

Yes, nearly 30 years together. He melts my heart!

[Pinkheart5915]

Together 10 years and yes I am excited when he gets home and he can still make my heart race
