I love my partner because...

[smilingatthesun]

Ive not posted before, I thought id do a lighthearted thread because I can't sleep.
I love my husband because he makes me feel safe, hes my happy place.
He knows how to make the perfect cuppa
He knows what to say to cheer me up
He also annoys me but in a goofy funny way.

Let's see your reasons

He makes me laugh, and I make him laugh.

He's a rock and the voice of reason when I'm spinning out. He's wise and thoughtful.

Great in bed, fabulous forearms.

Has strengths I don't, and appreciates that I have strengths he doesn't. Thinks highly of my talents.

Good father.

We're very different, so we've had some bad patches when due to stress we stop communicating and become incomprehensible to each other, but we do get out of them, so overall 👍

He's the kindest, gentlest and most intelligent person I've ever met.
He has huge reserves of integrity, empathy and patience and every day shows
dc and I that he loves us, that we are the centre of his world, with both his words and actions.
He's a big softy with the pets and any animals. No worm will be left stranded on a path on his watch, no injured bird left untended.
He's witty, interesting and interested, with a boundless curiosity about the world.
He's a great listener and I love all the unexpected places our conversations take us. His actions and reactions consistently demonstrate that we are equals, that my opinion matters as much as his, even if we disagree.
I love the relaxed peace and calm of him being close by, without needing to speak.
Acts of kindness or generosity are carried out quietly, without fuss or fanfare.
Life with him manages to be both a safe space and and an adventure.
I love the warmth he brings, his deep voice, the dimple in his chin, the shape of his hands, his long legs and the little flare of joy I feel when catching sight of him unexpectedly in a crowd (he's tall so pretty easy to spot).

I utterly trust him. I know he would never do anything that would hurt or damage me or our family. He has the same values and views of the world that I do - though he’s stayed firmly left wing and I’m drifting a bit rightwards. We both believe that we had kids for life and that helping them remains our priority into their young adult hood. We watch the film Pride every Christmas and both cry. He’s always got something interesting or original to say. He’s kind - that under-rated and misunderstood virtue - puts himself out to do good things for others. He talks to anyone and everyone and people always confide in him.
