I am very sensitive to those who have had awfulness . I have also had awfulness . Now I want to talk about loveliness ...
Talk to me about the loveliness in your romantic life ...
Back story is a woman who was disrespected / used / ignored and coerced. Now I have a man who has my meals
Ready on the table , a towel warmed and ready for my shower , my favourite wine and nuts on the table after a long day, listens without interrupting , cleans and tidy his home before I arrive , a candle lighting as he knows I love the romance and scent .... all new and all overwhelming ...
Tell me about your new loveliness ...
We are a year in .. sometimes I think he is too good
To be true but he is consistent ....

I get a cup of tea in bed every morning, and toast brought to me if I'm poorly in bed.

DH brings home flowers often for no reason other than they were pretty 🌺

He's supports me on my bad days, and he supports me on my good days. Nothing is ever too much trouble. The way he bonds with our daughter makes my heart melt. He is always my voice of reason and he has the most incredible sense of humour. The day he asked me to be his wife was one of the best days of my life! 😍

I can't wait to see more loveliness! I'm a sucker for it!
Single, adore my girl. She brings me coffee on a weekend... hit and miss! She's 10 Smile

He strokes my leg when I’m doing the night shift breastfeeding.

Tiny gesture, but makes me feel less alone & more like we’re in this parenting thing together.

As the name suggests, I'm rather skeptical about some of the posts but I like this one.

I was in a horrible relationship for 8 years, self esteem ground to nothing, I left her and things ended up all over the place for me.

Met someone new last year and now for the loveliness:

She's the most amazing person I've ever met, she's kind, she's attentive, she's funny, she's the most beautiful person I've ever met, inside and out. I don't have a single bad word to say about her, I often wonder what she's doing with me because she's perfect as far as I'm concerned, I've not spent a single day since I've met her where I'm down, she's turned everything around for me, she's literally lit up my life.

Nothing specific in terms of loveliness because everything she does encapsulates that and for the first time in 10 years I'm genuinely happy with myself and happy with my life, I didn't think someone was capable of turning my way of thinking around but they have and that is my definition of loveliness, it's even given me a kick up the arse to push myself even further than I was before because giving us a better life is now my #1 priority, before I was quite happy in the middle of the road, coasting, now I'll step on anyone to get myself a better footing to contribute to a better life for us.

I have got quite fat! My bf was asking why I am always wearing black and I said I wasn't happy with my weight and how my clothes looked. He said well buy smaller clothes then. I looked at him and said how would that help and he said "well I would like it" I thought it was really sweet and made me feel much better about my fat!

DH isn’t what you would call classically romantic eg hearts & flowers, running me a bath etc ( I’m a shower girl anyway) but it’s the little everyday things with him. I hate my upper arms. DH said “ Your arms are part of you & I love every part of you” ❤️ Same for my cellulite. If I’m upset or need a chat he’ll say “ “ Pull up a husband”. When he goes out, he’ll bring back creme eggs for the 3 of us. He’s brilliant in the middle of the night when my anxiety kicks in & I think I’m having a heart attack. He cleans the rabbits out every single week because he knows I hate doing it.
