Tell me something lovely your OH has done for you

[Cheeseandcrackers40]

Doesn't have to be today, can be big or small. Just nice to have some positivity!

I'm full of cold and feeling like crap today. I really fancied baked beans with my dinner and thought we had some in. My OH had to leave for work in 30 mins but upon seeing my disappointment drove to the shop to buy me some, dropped them off and went to work. Honestly it's the little things!!

So tell me the small (or big) acts of love from your OH 😊

Mine makes soup, bread, gets nice food when I'm rushed off my feet with work.

Mine makes me coffee every morning.

And when I had covid recently, he rearranged his entire morning routine (despite a very early work start) to take my DC to the bus for school so that I could stay asleep.

so many things but he’s just thoughtful and that goes a long way.

Just cooked dinner. Steak chips and onion rings. Regrouted the bathroom and watched a rom com with me this afternoon

Picks up my prescriptions so I don’t have to go to the pharmacy after work.

Unexpectedly collected me and my pals from the airport at 2am when we'd expected to have to wait for a taxi.

Queued outside Polene in paris for a few hours to get me a lovely birthday present 😂 makes me a lovely cup of tea every morning in bed!

We are getting married next year. Last week i went wedding dress shopping with friends with lunch planned afterwards. He called ahead at the restaurant and covered the full bill (food and drinks) for all of us. 💜

On Thursday I got home from work and was so tired could barely function. He ran me a bath and cooked dinner.
He is just generally lovely, I appreciate him every day.

I am studying at the moment - studying a subject my DH has zero interest in.

I am dyslexic and asked him to sense check one of my early assignments. He's read every one of them since and makes time to talk through my ideas and is wildly encouraging.

Mine booked a special day out in May, for late September. Even on the day I had no idea where we were going, till we drove up the drive to a really special gardens with timed tour then lunch etc. It was really lovely in being thoughtful and a surprise!

Got in my car this am and he has filled it with petrol and taken it to the valet.

When I got home from work yesterday, he’d run me a bath and lit candles and there was a glass of wine on the side.

He does thoughtful things like this all the time. He’s an excellent role model to our 2 sons.

Oh that's nice OP. It really is the little things, isn't it?!

I came home mega tired from a big work thing the other day and he'd bought my favourite food to make me for tea, had run me a bath for the moment I got through the door, and had charged my vibrator. Then he folded washing while watching a really boring documentary I know he didn't care about with me before he had to go to work. He's a good egg <3

Loads really - he's just a decent chap; but one of the nicest things he does is help me care for my (very) elderly mum .. it's so much easier if we both take her to an appointment for example, he drives and waits for us and I can go in with her. He also does practical things like mowing her lawn & sorting out her financial affairs (with her full knowledge & agreement of course !).

I often go to bed before he does and tend to fall asleep on his side. When he comes up, he doesn't wake me or move me over, instead he just strokes my hand, knowing it will eventually register with me and I'll roll over to my side in my sleep

Oh charging the vibrator is deffo extra - what a guy!

Oh this is cute!!

You've just reminded me, years ago when we were much younger I had a habit of falling asleep with hair bobbles around my wrist. One day I noticed loads of them looped over part of the headboard. OH had been coming to bed after me and taking them off my wrist while I was asleep so I didn't wake up with a compression from them ❤ I only found out because I quizzed him!

He's done so, so much for me throughout all the time I've known him.

Today, he's sitting and listening to me chat his socks off about a movie he hates and pretending and doing his very best to act interested 😁

We're both gamers and I've been moaning about needing a new keyboard for ages. After a particularly shit day, I got home late from work to be presented with a very fancy new keyboard box. He told me to open it... And he had already installed the new one and put my grotty old one in the box and sealed to make me laugh. He'd also tidied the house and made a cake so the house smelled beaut. He's just great 😊

A couple of years ago I left work due to health issues getting worse. It was taking ages to get anywhere with my GP and referrals, and I was constantly overwhelmed and quite depressed.
DW had just gone back to work after taking a week off to support me, and she called to check I was okay during her break.
I just cried. I felt awful. She reassured me, and left work early to come be with me. She lost her job, which she knew she would when she walked out. But she became my full time carer and took over all phone calls and forms for health professionals and was my rock throughout it all.
I'm now on highest rate of PIP, a cocktail of meds (prescribed) that really help and hopefully, after a few more tests we'll finally get a definitive diagnosis and I can start getting my life back to how it was.

This sounds so tough, hope you get some answers soon x

These are all wonderful and so touching. 😍

Lovely thread OP

My ex, although a decent enough bloke, did nothing like any of these things ever. It was so upsetting to never be thought about like that

This thread gives me hope to find a man who will

Mine brings me tea in bed most mornings.

Currently he's cooking - he came to find me to double-check what I wanted.

He can be utter PITA at times, but on balance he's fab.

Proper poorly today so I’ve had homemade vegetable soup with my favourite bread.
And to cap it all a cuppa and a bag of Galaxy Counters.
Told him about the thread on here about them being discontinued and the upset it’s causing.
He’s been to a few different places and asked them how many bags they’ve got left!
