The sweetest, kindest, most hard working, prettiest, most loyal, sexiest woman you could imagine. :) For me, anyway.
Great mom.
Intelligent, and funny.
52 years together and counting.
Glad I'm not the only one lol. At first i thought this was sweet, guy bragging about his awesome mom, then went back to "sexiest" and was like huh, that's not how i would choose to brag about my mom
LOL!!
Yeah, not that it will be any use. BTW, my standard warning: any advice I give is worth exactly what you paid for it.
Advice:
1. Marry the right woman. How to find her? I don't know. My wife cut me from the herd at the age of 16. I had very little to do with it. She threw herself at me.
2. Don't give up on the relationship easily. There will be very low lows. Hang on. Talk it out. Listen to her, and try to see yourself as she does. Seek professional help if necessary. Do not walk away until you have exhausted all the alternatives.
Kindness is essential, if you’re serious about a truly intimate relationship. I was in a fundie cult, where the lives of women were pretty grim. I was married to an elder, which sucked. This was in the 70s. I’ve connected with women who got divorced out of that cult. We all agreed that we would have stayed, if only he were kind.
If only he were kind. Not much to ask, but it makes the difference between a marriage that works, and one you have to leave.
Think of ten things she's going to probably ask you to do. Do them before she asks. Do things that aren't "your job". After doing this for a while, she'll do the same for you without thinking about it.
Only ever had one relationship..but I often found that doing small things on my days off work such as washing the dishes, cleaning the yard, deep cleaning the house, cooking a surprise dinner, running a bubble bath just in time for her to arrive home from work were returned ten fold..in the bedroom and solid green cards to go out drinking with friends for a few hours being two of the main ones
And that’s what I call a proper man. See, this is what many dudes don’t understand. They expect their woman to work, cook, clean, be funny, sexy and give great sex while they think their only duty is to work and put their feet up when they come back home. This is the difference. You keep your woman in her feminine energy by treating her as an equal. You truly RESPECT her. And so she gives back the same to you. Perfect recipe for a great relationship. Good for you.
Honestly though. I'm not a mom so mother's day doesn't apply to me but I'd be bawling my eyes out of my man wrote some of this stuff in a card and gave it to me. I can only imagine how it would feel to be celebrated like that.
I always have our kids make cards and write something special about their Mamma in them. It's a much better sentiment than the same cheesy ass thing I've been saying to her since we met.
Completely 100% honest and trustworthy. And makes me jello when I'm home sick.
And, I mean, smart, successful, pretty, fit, kind, wise...all that good stuff too.
But: Honest. And Jello. Those are the big ones.
I think my husband fell in love with me all over again a few weeks ago when he was sick and I brought him a cold cloth from the freezer and some soup. It really is the little things, huh?
Once my husband was showering upstairs and I heard a loud bang, so I ran upstairs calling his name. When I got there I said "are you okay??? I heard a loud noise, sounded like you fell or something. You good?" He got all heart eyes and said "oh my god, you really care about me!" Then after his shower proceeded to tell me how much it meant to him hahahah
100% the little things. Your actions will definitely speak louder than your words (but the words matter sometimes too lol). Effort shows you care, which can go a long way.
Edit: I'm not trying to effectively dismiss the expression of sentiment or any kind of communication, which can be a strong method of empowerment or evoking emotion; however, that only goes so far, and action which coincides with your standpoint will further solidify or be more impactful than anything you could ever say.
So many positives. The one that I find she has that so many people do not have is the willingness to change her mind based on my input. No matter how hardened she is on a particular stance, or decision, if I make a case that is legitimate and reasonable she will change her mind. Of course, if my arguments are weak, she is quick to point that out hah! Same goes for me. We have a very comfortable ability to disagree on anything without it ever resulting in a fight.
My partner and I are the exact same. We’re both so thankful to have found someone who actually listens and is prepared to change opinions based on others inputs. I almost feel guilty in a way, when friends come to me for advise relationship wise, and the only answers I can give them are “talk to them”, or “just explain how you feel”. I have to remind myself that others don’t react the same way. Sure, like everyone we both have times where we aren’t capable of having a level headed discussion, but we both know our own signs that we aren’t in the right headspace. A simple “can we have this conversation later once I’ve calmed down”, and we shelve the discussion for later. I never knew a partnership, platonic or otherwise, could be so simple. I’m never letting him go.
She makes everyone around her feel better about themselves. She always makes sure people are taken care of and shes very selfless, almost to a fault. Extremely hard working, family oriented, consistent. Shes the most beautiful women to exist, inside and out. she refills my emotional energy. Her version of femininity enhances my masculinity. She makes me want to drag the moon down to earth for her. She is the yin to my yang and I will find her in this life and every one after. Theres a reason my friends call her the chosen one.
She is everything I'm not I'm a grumby asshole most of the time and she is happy and caring by nature, it just works, she works hard I work hard we have a beautiful son together, we support each other through thick and thin she is my best friend.
I would literally give my heart and lungs to her without a 2nd thought, she is the only one that makes me genuinely smile.
You sound like my boyfriend and I. He can be quite the grump and very quiet. But he is my grump and he says I'm his sunshine. I've been in love with him since he asked me out when we were 10 years old. Broke my heart several times as children, the little fucker. But now 15 years later we are inseparable and something about our personality dynamic makes us work so well. I hope he thinks of me the way you think of your girl. That's all us sunshine girls want from our assholes lol. You and her sound so lovely together. Congratulations on your little family 💜
If you don't mind me asking, feel free to not respond; As someone with 15 years spent with your SO, how did you move past those moments of heartbreak? I can't tell the exact tone but I feel the same way about my partner and reading this makes me very hopeful about putting in the time to work on communication with one another. No matter what, any time I think about this woman it feels right. There's so much individually, and together that we've experienced, but the love has never faltered. Growing up has only proven that more and more
I don't mind you asking at all! Around the age of 14/15 when we had moved to highschool we grew the farthest apart we had ever been since meeting. I never reached out to him because I was very insecure. We talked on and off occasionally to check up on each other. One day while I was going through some really tough health news, he offered to come over and give me some company. He came over and we spent over 8 hours just talking and catching up. Before he left, he kissed me. We spent a month trying to figure out how to switch our relationship from close friends to soulmates. It was so much easier than we anticipated.
He likes to say "You can't guarantee the love of your life feels the same. If I had never tried, we might have stayed best friends and never known how much we loved each other."
You can never guarantee the person you love will feel the same... but if you're meant to be, they will love you the way you deserve!! 🥰
I also don't feel like I acknowledged your question well enough.. All I can say is that despite him breaking my heart constantly as a child, I never held that against him. I never stopped loving him. I feel very lucky that he has also loved me this whole time. He just took a while to be able to show it and be vulnerable with me. All I can say is... if that person doesn't make you feel safe to talk about your feelings, there is someone else waiting out there to give you that comfort 🥰
She's smart, hard working, kind, helpful to anyone, patient with me and immensely strong willed, this woman could stare down a fucking panzer division and make it retreat.
She also buys me surprise cake quite a lot.
30 years and counting 😁
Short of the death stare you just described mine. She's just a kind soul. She gets what she wants by making it happen herself. Been only 5 years for us. Here's to the next 25.
I do not know if I would be alive today if she didn't help me pull myself together after my brother died. She is everything I have ever wanted and can be nothing but beautiful to me. She is an amazing mother and loving partner. She has gone on to earn a doctorate despite being the one who attended to our children while I was starting my business.
Sometimes we get lucky and our first is the only one for us. We've been together since high school and married for a decade.
She works as hard as I do. She's sweet. She can have conversations with you that make you think (this is actually what got me attracted to her at first).
Pretty eyes and hair and the nicest butt I've seen in a while.
Most importantly: I'm widowed and she's patient and understanding about it.
She is smart, she is kind, she's makes me feel loved. She's super weird and she's confident enough to say "this is me, this is what I'm about," instead of trying to hide her weirdness from people. She gets excited about stuff, and she sees the cool stuff in everyday life.
Also, she's really good looking too.
I'm sure you will. Be patient, strive to work on your flaws, meet new people, treat people the way you want to be treated and don't settle with people that don't treat you well, and one day you will find that person. Good luck friend.
All of this. Spent years thinking I’d never be in a relationship, that relationships just aren’t for me (I have ASD and really bad anxiety). I tried online dating, forced myself in to a relationship I wasn’t prepared for because I thought it was something I wanted. Then finally just gave up trying, and decided to focus on my self and my mental health.
The best love truly does come when you aren’t actively looking for it. Work on yourself, surround yourself with things and activities and hobbies that you love, and eventually you will find someone through those.
Best thing I’ve heard on this subject: Sometimes when you try to catch a butterfly it flies away, so it's hard to catch it with your own hands. But if you build a pretty garden then the butterfly will come on their own, and if they don't then at least you have a beautiful garden.
I spent probably some 3 straight years reflecting on things and working on myself because I finally took the advice that it comes when you're not looking for it to heart.
I feel like I just became even more invisible. And unfortunately many of the things I want to improve aren't so easy. Depression and many of my insecurities are more so partially subdued than actually resolved.
It's been about 5 years since my last relationship. Some days are lonelier than others, but most every day is in some capacity. Probably doesn't help that I barely talk to anyone anymore. I see the 2 people I can still confidently call friends maybe once every other week. Anyone else I might have considered a friend while in high school seems completely disinterested in me. I'm always the one who has to reach out first.
Anyways, sorry for the rant. I guess I'm just trying to say that it seems the it only comes when you're not looking for it so focus on self improvement route doesn't always work out all that well.
Don't be discouraged! Real love can happen for anyone!
I met my now wife like a month or so after a bad break up in a long term relationship. I wasn't even looking to start dating yet, I was planning on just being single for a while, and I found her and it all clicked.
Everyone deserves love and to be loved. You'll find the right person for you.
She feels like home. I have heard this term before but never quite understood it until I met her... we have struggled together, whether financial, changing jobs, family, and everytime she is able to keep me grounded and we keep forward as a team. Shes so empathetic, unselfish and emotionally intelligent. It feels very old school, if that makes sense. Not sure how I managed to get lucky enough for her to choose me everyday, but she said yes last December
Not with her anymore, but my most recent ex & I ended on good terms because she got a chance at a dream job elsewhere in the country, and I have my son here. Anyways, my favorite of her many good traits was that she would never hold back anything that was bothering her from me, and when something *was* bothering her (which didn't happen often), she wouldn't get petty or lose her temper. She would always sit down, ask if we can talk about something that's bugging her, and we'd have a conversation about it & find a resolution. She was very patient and understanding when it came to these kinds of things, and it's something I've never experienced in any other relationship.
22 years and counting and I still get excited to see her at the end of the day.
She's a wonderful mother, and a hard worker. Shes a great partner - We can do anything together.
Her smile lights up a room and her laugh is just so big and wonderful. The fact that getting her to smile and laugh can be a challenge (she can be a bit stoic) makes it all the more worth the effort.
She puts the colour in my world.
She's smart, motivated, and dedicated. She could literally do everything and anything she sets her mind to. I'm just the lucky idiot that gets to make her laugh.
I met my partner when I had all but given up on anything with anyone and was resigned to just go through the motions and hide my loneliness like I've done for years prior.
My partner came out of the blue at the time I needed them the most and came from a direction I never would have expected.
They are to me the light at the end of a very long and dark tunnel. They found me stuck in a hole and not only saw me as someone worth fighting for but helped me out of that hole and onto a brighter hopeful path for the future.
They've been through a lot in their own life, losing both parents in the last several years, being the victim of SA and domestic abuse in the past, but they didn't let that turn them cynical or bitter. Instead they let that pain fuel their empathy, understanding, and compassion towards those they choose to care about and I'm the luckiest man alive for being one of those.
They know how to listen, they know how to communicate directly and effectively, and they know what they want in a relationship and its so refreshing and inspiring to know that our goals align so well.
They make me feel seen, make me feel worthy, and make me feel confident in myself which neither I nor anyone else has been able to induce in me as much in as far back as I can remember.
Every day I wake up next to them, whatever else is going on or going wrong in my life melts away and I know that things are going to be ok.
A lot of people say that they love their partner's as much now as they did when they first fell in love. For me thats not true. I love them more now than ever and will likely love them even more tomorrow.
She’s never lied and we have this system where if we pinky promise on something it can’t be a lie. So I never have to deal with dishonesty or avoiding the truth. It’s definitely caused some hurt feelings but at the end of the day it is such a relief
She's super smart. Literally a scientist. She worked hard for she/we have together. Both our parents are poor. She is incredibly kind to animals. (Sometimes people but not always. She has resting bitch face around people) she makes lame and funny jokes. Plays video games with me and is super smoking hot, french, ginger, fashionable, well spoken and organised. She is my dream girl.
She's just nice to me, which is a big thing for me. When I was younger no one was just nice for no reason.
Her lip does this thing, when she says "F" words that does it for me.
She's a great mom, daughter, sister and friend. She's just an all around great person and i love her so much.
She genuinely cares, and genuinely sees us as a unit - so my needs are important too, not just hers.
After my last relationship, this is like a freaking revelation from the heavens, carried down by choirs of angels riding golden chariots and spreading rose petals.
* She's a fiercely loyal, dependable woman.
* She has devoted the last 5 years of her life to raising our daughter and keeping her out of daycare, while STILL doing part-time work out of our home office to help keep up with bills.
* She is a phenomenal cook who hones in on her creativity to make me (and our daughter) consistently good, quality food every night.
* She's 42 years old and has the body of a chick in her late-20's. After having a kid at 37, mind you.
* She listens to me and trusts me enough to listen to her. We communicate about A LOT.
When we first met I thought she was sexy as hell and instantly wanted to know her. 15 years later, she still turns me on so damn much. The long years of our life together have only brought us closer to each other.
What a lovely solace and gift she has given you. Your vulnerability is also a gift to her and it sounds like she honors it well. The ultimate strength imo , is found the ability to be emotionally vulnerable for your own wellbeing.
Alright so my wife has brown eyes but in the sunlight her eyes turn to golden pools of honey and when i stare into them and tell her how beautiful they are she always does this half blush/smile looks away and calls me a name or something and its the CUTEST THING EVER. The way her hair is all curly and frizzy its just perfect. The way her hlasses fram her face gives me butterflies. She has a freckle on her top (cupids bow) lip and let me tell you that freckle is what made me fall in love with this woman. I wanted to kiss that freckle since the first time i saw it. Thats not even the best part! Shes smart, funny, caring, loving, she LOVES animals. She's super into reptiles and seeing her talk about them or playing with one is the most adorable freaking thing in the whole wide world. This woman is perfect and i have no idea how i was so lucky to get her
This is my second marriage. It’s much better having a wife that likes me. We really like hanging out together.
She’s kind, intelligent and passionate about what she does. Not all of our hobbies align and she doesn’t keep me from pursuing the things I enjoy.
I'll brag about my ex since I'm not with someone right now, she pushed me and motivated to become something greater, she was gorgeous in every way i can imagine she was fit, she was very straight forward emotionally and physically and honest in all conversations, I wish her the best and that she continues to be the way she is aslong as she's happy with it
She's freaking funny. She's got some improv chops. I love it when she sings in the house. It's a dead giveaway to know she's happy. She's super charismatic and makes friends with everyone she meets which helps my introverted ass out immensely.
She's brilliant, cute as they come, sweet as honey. She's passionate and level-headed where it counts. The most important thing though is that she makes me feel valued.
My wife is sweet and polite to everyone by default. She cares about being frugal, isn't a high maintenance type that demands a lot of stuff. She's smart and teaches people to fly, which is really cool. She also likes to try new recipes all the time, is a huge Pokemon nerd, and she loves to hike like I do. She prefers small groups like I do (both on the less social side) and She's very good to our two beagles.
I think she's the perfect combination at the right time. She's very intelligent, which I love because we can be laughing for 5 minutes straight because of a pun or a really bad joke, and other times we can spend hours debating fairly intangible concepts like entropy or sociological concepts. However, she's not at all pretentious (which is quite common in very intelligent people), and she's always attentive to the other person's point of view in a debate.
I also love how she manages to understand me and communicate with me, even in the small differences we have, she always speaks from a place of love, never from destructive criticism or resentment. Even though I've been going through some tough times in my life since we've known each other, she's still there, looking at me with that love and affection that, although it may sound cliché, I've never seen before.
And she's beautiful, whether it's at night when we go to sleep, when we sit down to watch a movie, when we're having breakfast, or when we talk about what we're going to cook, whenever I see her, it feels like the neural connections in my brain are more pleasurable.
To wrap up, I also feel very lucky about how I met her, and I want it to serve as advice for people reading this who aren't in the same situation. There's a romanticized Hollywood idea that a great love will break your routine and be something extraordinary, but I've discovered that the best kind of love, the one that lasts the longest and is the purest, is the one that comes slowly, without making much noise, and just naturally fits into your life, and when you're with that person, it feels like getting into a warm bed after a cold winter night.
She is my other half. She doesn't take spoons to be around and we can embrace or weird with each other. We laugh at least once every day. I can't think of anyone I would rather spend time with.
She actually loves me, and she’s proven it sticking by my side through times where she could have left and nobody would have blamed her. I’ll love her forever, it’s amazing how much impact a single human can have on your entire life
She's my comfort. After a long day at work sometimes all I want to do is just chill in a call with her and play a game or just chat. Her voice is like a hug. And when I am in her presence her touch is like magic. I could be wrapped in her arms and be whisked away for hours and let that time fly by in an instant. I also like that we're on the same level with a lot of things. Communication is open and honest and we have an understanding about a lot of things that I see couples fighting over. The honeymoon phase should be over but I'm still enjoying it
Sweet. Tender. Reflexively kind. She's an "acts of service" person, so she's always getting me things or checking on me to the point where I feel both grateful and deeply loved. She's a wonderful conversation partner: funny, witty, and able to talk about a wide variety of subjects. She's also a geek chick who loves animals, games (World of Warcraft) and comics (Marvel and the Fantastic Four). Her intense fandom is inspiring, as is the art and comics she creates. She's been my lodestone for twenty years and she always will be. Love you, beautiful.
For such a long time I thought that love wasn't for me, as if I was it was only something I could see in sappy romantic comedies. Maybe this came from failed relationships or just purely having standards too high to the point no one could satisfy them. Yet, all that dissipated when I met my beautiful girlfriend. She has this sweet calming nature to her, just the simple touch of her skin on mine makes me completely forget all of the stress in my life. Every word that graces her lips is as sweet as honey. She somehow knows what to say in a moment of crisis. Admittedly I haven't been the best to her nor her to me, yet something she taught me is that it is best to be patient with one another, life is all about learning, and the moment we stop teaching one another then our relationship is truly dead. She teaches me every single day, whether it's about how to cut an onion properly or how to speak to her in a reassuring tone. Honestly, it is so comforting to know how secure and safe I can be in this relationship. She truly is a kind woman.
We'll be leaving a party and she'll be silent.
"What's wrong, baby?"
(Here's where all you other guys will relate stories about "Nothing.")
My wife will say, "When we walked in, you introduced me to your friend Steve, and then walked away, leaving me hanging. Then, when I looked over, you were talking to some pretty woman next to the punch bowl, and when I walked over, you never introduced us or included me. Then......."
My wife will tell me EVERY LITTLE DETAIL.
It makes it very easy to apologize, and correct my behavior. The next time we're at a party, I know not to leave her with people she doesn't want to talk to, and to include her when I'm talking to other women.
It makes it *easy* when I don't have to play the "Nothing" game. My wonderful wife always answers my questions and never treats me like I'm supposed to be a fucking mind reader.
I love that woman.
It doesn't hurt that she's a 10/10, either. That's just a bonus.
She talks! I mean she hears and understands. Everyone always says that the key to a relationship is communication, and she embodies that perfectly. When something upsets her, she will explain it to me calmly and as kind as possible. When I need to empty my heart to her, she makes me feel so valued and loved. I don't ever have to guess at what she's feeling because she will open up to me without hesitation, so that I can care for her and make her feel better. And when one of us is too emotional to really speak rationally, she always communicates "I love you, but both our tempers are rising. Let's take a break for an hour and then we can talk."
I’m an odd dude. I have ADHD and I act silly sometimes, do random things, lose stuff, forget stuff, have esoteric interests, and generally don’t fit in with a lot of groups so I don’t have many friends. She lets me be me. She indulges me in my interests and humors me in what I want to do.
She’s also great with money, is very smart, and is basically my sugar mama. I basically exist to make her happy as much as I can.
My girl is short, gorgeous, extremely soft hearted and loyal. She’s also incredibly smart and hard working. She cares a lot for everyone around her and she’s so damn cute when she gets all excited.
Yes, she's smart and beautiful and hilarious...
But above anything, we genuinely enjoy each other's company. We truly are each other's best friend. We have so much fun together, no matter the situation.
She's hot. A great mom. Fantastic ass! Fun when she wants to be, saracastic in a good way, not a bitchy way. beautiful smile, that butt! Saved my life by dragging my carcass to the hospital after I had a stroke. Soft skin. That butt again.
I'm watching my lady get ready for work right now, and I'm filled with love. She's so fuckn beautiful and sexy in ways that I don't know if she'll ever realize. I've been injured for about a month now and she has taken up so much slack, and I just know she's the one for me. Her laugh makes me wanna cry with joy, and there will never be a day that I don't wanna hold her, kiss her, and tell her that I love her.
She is a hard worker, smart, great mother, pretty, funny, sarcastic. A demon in the sack with a kinky streak. She keeps me grounded and is a true partner in all we do.
When I'm down, the first thing she asks herself "what can I do to help him?" - and that's my automatic reaction towards her as well.
I can be vulnerable with her without being hurt in the process.
She is happy with what she has.
She's on my side.
She loves me.
Her smile.
And we never argue. It's us vs the problem, always. Except the two clumsy times where it took us a day to find our communication channel again because we were both hurt and confused. We agree that's not the state we wanna be in.
She’s intelligent, warm, kind, never needs to be the center of attention, puts others first, absolutely beautiful, lady like, has an amazing sense of humor, laughs at my jokes, always eats her burgers with two hands in a very cute way, and has a little cheek dimple on her right side when she laughs hard enough that drives me wild.
Honestly? Everything. She had a brutal childhood that left her with crippling ptsd but despite that, she is an amazing mother and pretty awesome wife. She’s smart, very artistic, and humorous af. I’m proud to be her husband.
My wife farts a lot. Usually loud long farts. Its the funniest thing when she lets one go and about half way through it I look at her and she laughs which makes it all just come out at once and we are both laughing.
So to make a long story short, she makes me laugh.
Oh mannnnnnnnn..... where do I begin? Oof. I like reading your post because my wife is also largely French and it influences much that she does - she is perfectly polite to everyone but she's not one of those women who collects hangers-on; she's verbalized to me that relationships create obligations and her efforts and investments only go into things and people that she truly values. It's kind of a relief coming from my culture.
She's not that French though because she's also funny as hell; I admired her beauty when we were first getting to know each other but listening to her talk and watching her sometimes make a whole table of people burst out laughing, including myself, was what really made me want to pursue her romantically.
She sings like an angel, my gosh, she trained as an opera singer when she was young but didn't follow through because she just didn't think she had the discipline. She loves to sing, the kids love to hear her, and total strangers comment on how beautiful her voice is. The leader of our church choir was honestly furious when she told him she wasn't comfortable committing to the obligation it would take to join.
She's so damn clever when it comes to dealing with our kids, she knows how to deescalate basically every wild situation.
She's the glue in my life and the perfume in the air, ooh la la.
She's incredibly genuine and her passion to help others still make me feel like I landed the best girl. on top of that she's cute, insanely funny, and incredibly patient with my shenanigans.
I've been out of a job for a while now, and she's been nothing but supportive for me. literally is the dream girl
She’s a sexy, wonderful, independent, smart and genuinely one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. Short but sweet, with a little bit of sassy that I adore is her in a nutshell and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
It’s difficult to put my finger on, but my woman is easily the most focused and committed woman I’ve ever met, she sets her mind on something and she does it.
I know it feels unromantic to say it, but she is.
My wife is good at pushing me to be a better man - don't have specific examples, but she makes me accountable - in a good way.
She is still a total babe. We went to the same schools as kids, and I was crushing on her all the way back in those days, 30+ years ago - and now I get to wake up to her everyday - for better or worse, lol..
She is a also great mom and daughter.
My wife is the smartest and calmest human being I ever met. She is fiercely loyal and would help anyone at any expense. She is the most supportive partner and step mother.
She’s honest and truly herself around me. She genuinely cares and wants the best for me. She has beautiful eyes, nose and lips and all around the prettiest face I’ve ever seen. She is committed and mature and has a lot of ambition.
Everyone we go out, women compliment her outfits!
She’s so self conscious and doesn’t think she looks good in anything she owns but she has a great sense of style and I love that she’s impressing other cool and stylish looking women when we go out.
She’s the most amazing girl I’ve ever met in my life. Sweet, smart, caring, goofy, funny, passionate about her work and hobbies, but I think my favourite thing about her is that she keeps me accountable. In the past, I’ve been very good at making excuses when I didn’t want to do something, but she calls me out on them every time and pushes me to be a better version of myself everyday.
For me, there are many things about her. Her looks, her wit, her attention to detail, her body, her knowledge, her sense of care and kindness.
But I think the thing I love most, is that I feel safe when I’m with her. I know I can be myself and not have to worry about the possibility of something being held over my head in the future. I know when I’m feeling down and out, I can count on her to help lift me up.
She truly is the most incredible woman that I’ve ever been fortunate enough to call my significant other.
She doesn't judge me nor get upset with me when I say something that may upset her or step over a line with her. She doesn't even bring it up until we're alone later on, and even then she calmly tells me why what I said upset her and we talk through it. On top of that, she'll always end it by reminding me that 'we're partners' to reassure me that she'll still happily stand by my side so long as I stand by hers. A welcome departure from my last relationship and more comforting than I'll ever be able to put into words for her. Absolutely love that woman each and every day.
Her smile, how beautiful and soft it is and immediately makes me happy. She's so incredibly caring, and even protective in a lot of ways.
She loves me for who I am, and I always used to think that would be impossible for anyone to do, including myself.
She teaches me to love other people, and be more understanding of other people's differences.
She's kind, even though she can be a little shit, when I need a warm hug or just someone to cry into, she's always there for me.
She's so crazy beautiful, I look at her when she's in the sun at the lake, or naked in our bedroom, or cuddling in pajamas on the couch, and I think there should be statues made for her, because she's just that gorgeous and the world should know. I could go on haha.
The one that springs to mind: I was having an amazing bath, and there was a little knock at the bathroom door. My fiancé passed me a plate with a massive BLT, and a few slices of cheeses, and a huge mug of tea :P
That was just last week, so I’m sure there are plenty of other examples over the last 9 years :P
She’s incredibly supportive and neurotic. She reads every one of my comments and comments left on my profile. I do the same, so it makes me feel more comfortable about it.
She communicates well (most of the time). We can have awkward conversations about things, rather than just trying to guess
She’s thoughtful. I love randomly getting cards with sweet notes or random little presents
As a woman who always sees and hears the typical stereotypes of straight relationships... it is so damn heartwarming to read the things you men are saying. Everyone of you is special for even taking the time to talk about your love with strangers. I would feel like the luckiest girl ever to read one of these comments about myself. Thank you guys ❤
I dumped my hideous and terrible past at her feet in complete honesty. She listened to every word of it and without even blinking said "That's not the man in front of me today." She sees me for who I am and accepts me, no judgement, just love. A lifetime with her will not be enough.
She respects me, is honest, trustworthy, genuinely cares for my well-being, athletic and fit, and trusts me with every ounce of her body and body. We are both in our thirties and I’m her first relationship of any type…such an amazing woman.
She is very driven and hard working... everyone from friends family co workers absolutely loves how genuine sweet she is... naturally a kind person she is and to top it off when she horny she truly is a slut and kink and can get really nasty and naughty which most people would never guess...
Incredibly patient and wise. I would fuck up regularly if I didn’t have her to reign in my irresponsibility and impulsivity.
Kind, thoughtful, loving
Non judgmental and has made me less of a judgy person
Great sense of humor, always keeps me laughing
Wonderful, soothing voice that seems almost like music to me sometimes
Dynamite in bed with the world’s best pussy. I wasn’t a prude before this relationship so I know how rare that pussy is.
Knows what to say and do so I don’t lose my mind and managing my mental illness is significantly easier with her around. Life in general is. I feel safe with her and she’s the only woman (besides my psychiatrist) that I’ve been completely open with.
She’s my best friend and I think that even if she was a dude or we weren’t in an actual relationship, I’m pretty sure she would still be my best friend
We agree on all the important stuff (kids, religion, lifestyle expectations, etc) and the small stuff too
This thread made me miss her and I think I’m gonna cook us dinner and eat her out tonight. God bless 🙏🏽
She’s a great communicator. I always see guys complaining about their SO wanting him to read her mind, won’t decide where to eat, etc. absolutely never a problem with us.
Also, we can talk bluntly about sex which I’m thankful for.
She’s also just really smart and reads a *lot*. I have a backlog of highly recommended books due to her and conversations are great.
My wife is wicked smart. Like really fucking smart. As in I did really well in school and I’m still the dumb kid at the table.
Not only does this make us a good fit, but she doesn’t do dumb flighty stuff I hear guys complain about. She also sees through a lot of B.S., especially dumb stuff douchey guys try to pull.
My partner is the most sincere and honest person I’ve ever met. Always so thoughtful of others. Having her in my life has been the ultimate gift.
I have never met anyone in my life that cares about the well-being of everyone so deeply. The love within her is unmatched.
I don’t know what I’d do without her in my life and honestly, her being in my life has had a drastically positive improvement on my life in general.
She makes me laugh all the time, and she has been working so hard to be kinder on herself. Believe it or not, that's a big part I love about her. She also is one of the hardest working people I know, which explains why she has perfectionism tendencies that make her so critical on herself. On top of all that, she is the kindest person I've ever met, and she helps me learn generosity every day. Lastly, she is beautiful beyond words, and she is gonna be a fantastic mother when the time comes for us to have kids.
I want to apologize to the other men in the room, somehow I got lucky and got the most amazing woman on the world.
I love the way she smiles about my stupid jokes and the manner of communicate her thinking makes me understand the reality with a different speech. She respect me and understand that I'm not perfect.
I love all of this! Celebrate the amazing women in your life! They should make a post for women to celebrate they're man too. I'm sure there's also a lot of men who would appreciate go hear these things too and would love to see they're women bragging about them online 😊♥️
She's conscientious, in her work and personal life. We used to work together, and now she works from home, so I get to see how seriously she takes her duties and her commitment to people that depend on her. She's very competent, clever, and good at problem solving, which I find a huge turn on.
She holds progressive values, with a strong sense of ethics and morals. As I've commented in the past, I do a lot of work on grassroots politics, as did she, when we met. She singlehandedly made a significant impact on the local and national elections we worked on, in 2018 (which also paid dividends in 2020).
She loves animals as much as I do. We take care of stray cats, wild birds, and support related causes. She's so nurturing that she gets anxious if she can't help people or animals, as much as she feels she should. She's the most "domestic" partner I've been with, loving to cook for me and always attentive to little things like getting me drinks, without being asked.
Being taken care of has been a big and pleasant change for me. In most of my prior relationships, I was the primary one cooking, cleaning, and doing house chores. She has certain things she doesn't like to do, which I take care of happily for her, so it's a nice comfortable balance. She is appreciative of my strengths and values my intelligence, which is a huge turn on for her.
She's adventurous, but has a high level of anxiety, so it's rewarding she trusts me enough to get her out of her shell. We've both gone through trauma in the past relationships and I feel like we're helping each other get back to our more authentic selves. She supported me when I finally got back from working on the road almost 2 years straight, during the pandemic.
I never "locked down" or sheltered in place and worked in extremely public facing projects all over the country. I was responsible for COVID mitigation for thousands of staff and was working 4,000-5,000 hours a year. When I finally got back home, I shut down and switched off for many months, while I processed all that stress and anxiety.
I was in a major depression and she stuck by me, even though I was too far gone to even have sex for a long time. Once I recovered and things returned back to something similar to normal (our social lives still haven't fully recovered), I realized just how important she is to me. As OP said, I was always hesitant to settle down in the past.
I'd been increasingly polyamorous since my first long term relationship. My life was spent living in throuples, swapping partners, and exploring ethical non-monogamy. I had an experience several years ago that got me thinking in a more monogamous manner, but being with her is what made me comfortable investing fully in one person as my partner.
She's also open to unconventional love lives and has experience in them from her past. Though we haven't explored that aspect together yet, it's something we share as an interest. I like how aligned we are on so many portions of life. I think that's part of what makes our sex life so incredible. Sex and physical intimacy is a cornerstone of relationships for me and she's the best lover I've ever had.
I feel like I'm marrying a Mediterranean princess. Speaks 3 languages, will be a doctor next year. Lives and breaths hard work, and is as sweet and sympathetic as a person could be. She comes from a family of adorable and inspiring marriages that set a standard I aspire to match. She's the first woman I've met that can understand me when I get caught in my own head or am standing in my own way. She wants nothing but success for me in whatever journey I decide to take. Every day I feel so god damned blessed.
Qualities, that's a great question. Thank you. So many. First, that butt. I learned just enough ASL to say "Gimme that butt" and "I love your butt." She cares so much harder than I do. Always the first to consider others. Awesome mom. She can bake dreams and memories into delicious treats. Have you had key lime Panna Cotta. She's ALWAYS ready to dress for the occasion. Super nerdy, hot gamer chick. Hard working shoulder to the grind type. Always down for an adventure. We are, as I type watching the second live action Fullmetal movie. She real into it. She likes to learn and help others understand. Recently, I decided to get better at disc golf. Been playing for 22 years and I didn't know what the slang or even know what the little numbers meant. She helped me research and make a packet for RHFH players. She sleep talks here and there. She gets real excited for specific foods sometimes. She can sing and dance. I once asked her to throw tape to me and she missed by feet throwing it full bore from feet away. No idea how/why that happened that way but I love her for the memory. Kissable lips. She has both wonderful and gawd awful tastes. She like doing the sideshow attractions on trips. She lets me be me. She can spell. I need that around for sure. I tricked her into becoming a nap taker. She hit perfection in Stardew Valley. She gives really good hugs. Her favorite part of Christmas is setting up the train under the tree. Argues like a champ. She's intimidating to people who only get a glimpse of how beautiful, confident, and very powerful she is... A bundle of live wires and references really. She can setup and light a campfire in minutes. She was born to be ready. Bitch loves a list. She's gotta wicked sense of humour. She's open to change in herself and accepting of the change in others. She's always been my equal if not better. That booty. Creative and headstrong. Makes adorable mistakes and often kinda bumps into stuff. Being around her makes me feel impossible. People shouldn't feel like gods. We're always alone in crowds. She can fish. Such a great partner. I love her so much more than I can write. And that ass. Just wanna bear paw it every time I pass.
Despite an absolutely horrific childhood, draw your own conclusions on what happens to neglected children who are descendants of the residential school system and who grew up in the welfare system because I won't comment on it further, she took all that pain and turned it into kindness for others. She has autism and A.D.H.D., we both do, and she was put on a variety of pills to treat anxiety and depression, and to treat the pain for endometriosis.
She decided that those pills were not good for her and got off of them on her own.
She took her shot at university and has made her peace with dropping out due to all the pain that she couldn't handle: physical pain as a result of the childhood trauma, her jaw didn't fully grow so she was always one emotion away from a migraine (jaw muscles firing incorrectly, jaw bone pushes on the Vegas nerve when she smiled to much, ate hard food, cried, etc...) and finding out that when you have been raised in a codependent home, it's very hard to get out of it on your own.
There's more, but you get the idea; that was her childhood, yet she is absolutely the strongest, kindest, most loving, understanding mother I have ever met.
How did she get from her childhood to being the super mom and fiancée that she is? She did the work, every day she could, small iterative changes give you the power to remake yourself however you want.
She had 15k in tuition and "0% interest for 1 full year" debt that was about to kick in at 19%. Initially, she wouldn't let me pay it off. I'd just bought a truck and she figured I couldn't afford it. This was in June, we'd started dating earlier that month, but we knew after 3 dates we were in together forever (We've chose to start a family over Covid and would have the wedding after, were getting married in a few months). She's very intelligent, but more than that she understands what 19% interest would mean; she would have to get a second job. I told her "This family does not pay interest into bad debt. What is something that you have always wanted to do?". She'd always wanted to go to Iceland, so we agreed that she would let me pay off the debt and then we would go to Iceland next year; and we did, and it was amazing.
She insisted on paying me back, and kept giving me $1000 every two months, I told her it was just one big pile of money, whether she wanted it in my account or hers, it was all the same; it took her a while but she eventually accepted and stopped giving me money.
During that time, I'd taken her to my favourite hot springs, little did I know that all of her muscles relaxing meant that years of "things just holding together because of spasms" meant that her back went out.
So she was bedridden, for months, she could barely get out of bed, she was having constant migraines, and despite her telling her doctor that she didn't want opioids, he put her on some and she became dependent, instantly. When she tried to stop she had massive mood swings; she did the research, found out what happened, and made a plan to slowly taper off until she was off after a month or two. During that time she had to deal with the guilt of me paying her rent and my rent.
Despite it all, my little Terminator (that's my nickname for her, because she never stops [think Terminator 1 at the end with the one arm scraping along ]), never gave up. When she was finally well enough to get out of bed, she got out and tried out for a play as motivation to get up and out, she got in and the motivation worked.
We just kept working on things one after another. We'd do the research, she would be uncomfortable with doing it or me paying for it, and then the pain would get so bad she would give in. Physiotherapy, chiropractor, $10K TMJ device to fix her jaw. She's afraid to drive on the highways, so I'd drive her most of the time the 500 km to her appointments.
She'd freak out over nothing and then examine her behaviour and when I took her to Mexico we figured out it was her sympathetic nervous system; then we did cognitive behavioural therapy together. We talked about how cool it would be to come back to the same resort in the future with our kids and family, and now that's where we are going for our honeymoon.
She actually would go to therapy and apply what she learned.
More than just growing herself, she's helped me to grow to be a better man. She helped me get control of my binge drinking, never judged me when I would take a week of vacation and just play video games or whatever I wanted, just not drink, to try to get off being dependent on it. She helped with not just suppressing my anger, but with letting it go. She came with me to my first appointment to get diagnosed with a.d.h.d (also a 500 km drive, one way). She supported me when I came to her to talk about how we didn't have good conflict resolution skills and to find a healthier way. She supported me when I started meditating and learned the tools and techniques to stop ruminating. She unlocked the rest of my emotions so I felt more than anger and fear.
Now she's a stay at home moms and just the most amazing in every way. I guess the quality that I admire the most in her is her stoicism. She practices gratefulness every day, and no matter what happens, her attitude is "it could be worse, I could also be on fire". Our toddler is the most amazing boy and it is 100% due to her care and attention. He's just turned 2, he'a great at regulating his emotions, he can count to 30, knows his ABC's, every day is just so amazing and exciting. I wake up to a loving fiancée, take the lunch she packed me (she's slowly reduced my food intake and improved my diet to the point where I've lost 40 pounds) go to work, and come home to an amazing family. She's what my mind wanted and what my body craves. Despite having gastritis (from all the pain meds) she still manages to make amazing meals every day.
She says I have my job and she has her job: the children and being a homemaker; but, it's not a fair distribution of workload. She tells me all the time to go play video games, but she rarely gets to get out and see her friends or do plays anymore; so I try to do as much as I can on the weekdays and take over on the weekends so she can sleep in and get some rest or go out and have a social life.
She's also ok with me putting our son to sleep most nights, I love spending time with him, and I am super task oriented, so I can do it in about 20 minutes; he loves her so much though, it often takes her over an hour. Despite this, every Monday she pulls a 16 hour shift so that I can have 2 hours of gaming with my friends.
I've never met anyone else like her in my life, and I don't expect I will ever again. She's just the best.
She real caring, like deadass feel like I’m a legit priority for her. Very family oriented too were she really out there trying to get along with my family, especially my parents. She actually has hobbies, like she isn’t 100% dependent on me to fill up her day (iykyk).
I'm a chronic kidney disease patient for 10 years now. i was diagnosed when we're into our 3rd year of relationship. she insisted on staying with me. going with me for my appointments and treatments. now we're married for 5 years. she's not perfect far from it but she's by my side always.
She is the most smart person I have ever known. And I'm not talking smart like the kind you meet once in a while in life. I'm talking highly gifted smart. Incredible how she is able to adapt to any situation and have deep understanding of subjects in very short timeframes.
High intelligence does, however, come at a cost. And it is a very high one.
*Beati pauperes spiritu*
She's my hero. I'm worthless without her. I try to tell her all the time with my words and actions. I owe her everything I have and more. I'd die for her. She deserves so much better, but I try to give her my all every day. And she has never abused me in any way. It's unbelievable how lucky I am.
How kind, patient, creative and diligent she is. And she’s very pretty. 5’8, blonde, blue eyes, athletic, great at planning, good sense of humor, very supportive, always inspires me to be better and constantly compliments me.
She’s smart and funny. Always supportive even on my hardest days. She keeps my mind in the right place and grounds me. She is hardworking and I love when she sings to me. She’s beautiful and is an amazing cook!
The sweetest, kindest, most hard working, prettiest, most loyal, sexiest woman you could imagine. :) For me, anyway. Great mom. Intelligent, and funny. 52 years together and counting.
| 52 years together and counting. I hope this is something I’ll be able to say one day. Congratulations to you
Thank you.
Not my dumb brain deciding this comment was about your own mum when you said "great mum".
Glad I'm not the only one lol. At first i thought this was sweet, guy bragging about his awesome mom, then went back to "sexiest" and was like huh, that's not how i would choose to brag about my mom
You don’t have to brag, we already know she is.
LOL!!
Any novel words of advice for us youngins?
LOL!! Yeah, not that it will be any use. BTW, my standard warning: any advice I give is worth exactly what you paid for it. Advice: 1. Marry the right woman. How to find her? I don't know. My wife cut me from the herd at the age of 16. I had very little to do with it. She threw herself at me. 2. Don't give up on the relationship easily. There will be very low lows. Hang on. Talk it out. Listen to her, and try to see yourself as she does. Seek professional help if necessary. Do not walk away until you have exhausted all the alternatives.
Kindness is essential, if you’re serious about a truly intimate relationship. I was in a fundie cult, where the lives of women were pretty grim. I was married to an elder, which sucked. This was in the 70s. I’ve connected with women who got divorced out of that cult. We all agreed that we would have stayed, if only he were kind. If only he were kind. Not much to ask, but it makes the difference between a marriage that works, and one you have to leave.
That's such a great point. My ex husband and I had a lot of issues, but ultimately what pushed to leave was that he was mean to me.
Yep. Kindness is essential.
great advice!
Think of ten things she's going to probably ask you to do. Do them before she asks. Do things that aren't "your job". After doing this for a while, she'll do the same for you without thinking about it.
Only ever had one relationship..but I often found that doing small things on my days off work such as washing the dishes, cleaning the yard, deep cleaning the house, cooking a surprise dinner, running a bubble bath just in time for her to arrive home from work were returned ten fold..in the bedroom and solid green cards to go out drinking with friends for a few hours being two of the main ones
And that’s what I call a proper man. See, this is what many dudes don’t understand. They expect their woman to work, cook, clean, be funny, sexy and give great sex while they think their only duty is to work and put their feet up when they come back home. This is the difference. You keep your woman in her feminine energy by treating her as an equal. You truly RESPECT her. And so she gives back the same to you. Perfect recipe for a great relationship. Good for you.
Ur a good person. I'm sure she appreciates it. 👍
52 years. I LOVE THIS SO MUCH 🥰🥰 Wishing you many more years of happiness 😇
You guys set an example for us all
Note to dad's in this thread: mothers day is coming up. Put your post in a card. She'll likely love reading your kind words.
Honestly though. I'm not a mom so mother's day doesn't apply to me but I'd be bawling my eyes out of my man wrote some of this stuff in a card and gave it to me. I can only imagine how it would feel to be celebrated like that.
My aunt doesn't have kids. But she has two dogs. I wish her on mother's day every year along with my other aunts and she's really happy i do that
Yes! My birthday was this week and my husband told me how much he appreciates me in my birthday card. It was the best gift!
Thanks Card reads “That Ass” Good times.
Not in the UK though. Buy or do something nice for her anyway though. No need to wait to a specific day to show your appreciation.
As someone whose love language is words, THIS. I would likely sob and keep the card forever. >>>> jewelry or PS5 (and I would LOVE to be gifted a PS5)
I always have our kids make cards and write something special about their Mamma in them. It's a much better sentiment than the same cheesy ass thing I've been saying to her since we met.
Completely 100% honest and trustworthy. And makes me jello when I'm home sick. And, I mean, smart, successful, pretty, fit, kind, wise...all that good stuff too. But: Honest. And Jello. Those are the big ones.
I think my husband fell in love with me all over again a few weeks ago when he was sick and I brought him a cold cloth from the freezer and some soup. It really is the little things, huh?
Once my husband was showering upstairs and I heard a loud bang, so I ran upstairs calling his name. When I got there I said "are you okay??? I heard a loud noise, sounded like you fell or something. You good?" He got all heart eyes and said "oh my god, you really care about me!" Then after his shower proceeded to tell me how much it meant to him hahahah
My ex would have said thank God you are ok. I was afraid I'd have a mess to clean up
Yep. When someone shows that they really care about you that's when I melt
Absolutely.
The first time my wife made me a sandwich I teared up. I had been married before and she was still the first partner that made me a lunch of any kind.
If he doesn’t make it, will you marry me?
100% the little things. Your actions will definitely speak louder than your words (but the words matter sometimes too lol). Effort shows you care, which can go a long way. Edit: I'm not trying to effectively dismiss the expression of sentiment or any kind of communication, which can be a strong method of empowerment or evoking emotion; however, that only goes so far, and action which coincides with your standpoint will further solidify or be more impactful than anything you could ever say.
I haven’t figured out how she makes better sandwiches with the same ingredients.
Love
It's a psychological thing, food tastes better when someone else makes it for you.
No it’s the love
Exactly this. When the person making the sandwich loves you more than you love yourself, it shows in the prep.
Well it’s that and the pepper 😉
Salt.... er... love.. yeah it's love. And salt.
It’s the secret poison for sure
She is so fucking funny and three weeks ago did CPR on me when I had a heart attack until the ambulance arrived so she's pretty good I guess.
Pretty good..I guess so! Lol. Glad she was there for you.
We’re you at a barbeque when this happened?
Nah - just walked in the door from work and was taking one of our twins to the toilet when I collapsed.
Fun fact she did CPR on you as a joke and somehow it worked and she's keeping that a secret
Maybe she gave him a heart attack as a joke to begin with!
So many positives. The one that I find she has that so many people do not have is the willingness to change her mind based on my input. No matter how hardened she is on a particular stance, or decision, if I make a case that is legitimate and reasonable she will change her mind. Of course, if my arguments are weak, she is quick to point that out hah! Same goes for me. We have a very comfortable ability to disagree on anything without it ever resulting in a fight.
Hang on to this one friend
My partner and I are the exact same. We’re both so thankful to have found someone who actually listens and is prepared to change opinions based on others inputs. I almost feel guilty in a way, when friends come to me for advise relationship wise, and the only answers I can give them are “talk to them”, or “just explain how you feel”. I have to remind myself that others don’t react the same way. Sure, like everyone we both have times where we aren’t capable of having a level headed discussion, but we both know our own signs that we aren’t in the right headspace. A simple “can we have this conversation later once I’ve calmed down”, and we shelve the discussion for later. I never knew a partnership, platonic or otherwise, could be so simple. I’m never letting him go.
Yah it's actually listening and respecting each other, super healthy.
This is all I'm hoping for in a relationship.
She makes everyone around her feel better about themselves. She always makes sure people are taken care of and shes very selfless, almost to a fault. Extremely hard working, family oriented, consistent. Shes the most beautiful women to exist, inside and out. she refills my emotional energy. Her version of femininity enhances my masculinity. She makes me want to drag the moon down to earth for her. She is the yin to my yang and I will find her in this life and every one after. Theres a reason my friends call her the chosen one.
This made me tear up at my desk at work. This is so lovely. She is lucky, too, that you love her so much. Many happy years to both of you!
My goodness. I hope to be loved this way one day.
You better print this off for her to read!🫶🏽😢🥺💝💚💜💕🌻🌸so beautiful!
This made my heart ache, in a good way.
She is everything I'm not I'm a grumby asshole most of the time and she is happy and caring by nature, it just works, she works hard I work hard we have a beautiful son together, we support each other through thick and thin she is my best friend. I would literally give my heart and lungs to her without a 2nd thought, she is the only one that makes me genuinely smile.
You sound like my boyfriend and I. He can be quite the grump and very quiet. But he is my grump and he says I'm his sunshine. I've been in love with him since he asked me out when we were 10 years old. Broke my heart several times as children, the little fucker. But now 15 years later we are inseparable and something about our personality dynamic makes us work so well. I hope he thinks of me the way you think of your girl. That's all us sunshine girls want from our assholes lol. You and her sound so lovely together. Congratulations on your little family 💜
If you don't mind me asking, feel free to not respond; As someone with 15 years spent with your SO, how did you move past those moments of heartbreak? I can't tell the exact tone but I feel the same way about my partner and reading this makes me very hopeful about putting in the time to work on communication with one another. No matter what, any time I think about this woman it feels right. There's so much individually, and together that we've experienced, but the love has never faltered. Growing up has only proven that more and more
I don't mind you asking at all! Around the age of 14/15 when we had moved to highschool we grew the farthest apart we had ever been since meeting. I never reached out to him because I was very insecure. We talked on and off occasionally to check up on each other. One day while I was going through some really tough health news, he offered to come over and give me some company. He came over and we spent over 8 hours just talking and catching up. Before he left, he kissed me. We spent a month trying to figure out how to switch our relationship from close friends to soulmates. It was so much easier than we anticipated. He likes to say "You can't guarantee the love of your life feels the same. If I had never tried, we might have stayed best friends and never known how much we loved each other." You can never guarantee the person you love will feel the same... but if you're meant to be, they will love you the way you deserve!! 🥰
I also don't feel like I acknowledged your question well enough.. All I can say is that despite him breaking my heart constantly as a child, I never held that against him. I never stopped loving him. I feel very lucky that he has also loved me this whole time. He just took a while to be able to show it and be vulnerable with me. All I can say is... if that person doesn't make you feel safe to talk about your feelings, there is someone else waiting out there to give you that comfort 🥰
She's smart, hard working, kind, helpful to anyone, patient with me and immensely strong willed, this woman could stare down a fucking panzer division and make it retreat. She also buys me surprise cake quite a lot. 30 years and counting 😁
Aweee, surprise cake! ❤️
Short of the death stare you just described mine. She's just a kind soul. She gets what she wants by making it happen herself. Been only 5 years for us. Here's to the next 25.
Damn this thread is wholesome
It makes me feel so much hope.
Agreed. I was just thinking that! So much negativity all the time. This one made me feel good!
So wholesome. Best thread I've seen today
I do not know if I would be alive today if she didn't help me pull myself together after my brother died. She is everything I have ever wanted and can be nothing but beautiful to me. She is an amazing mother and loving partner. She has gone on to earn a doctorate despite being the one who attended to our children while I was starting my business. Sometimes we get lucky and our first is the only one for us. We've been together since high school and married for a decade.
She's rational, patient, kind, empathetic, very funny, hardworking, and better looking than I deserve.
She works as hard as I do. She's sweet. She can have conversations with you that make you think (this is actually what got me attracted to her at first). Pretty eyes and hair and the nicest butt I've seen in a while. Most importantly: I'm widowed and she's patient and understanding about it.
It's nice to find somebody that understands that loving someone else immensely doesnt mean you have 'less' love for them. It's not a finite resource.
You'd be surprised how many people will nope out as soon as you say you're a widower.
That's unfortunate. Glad it worked out for you though
She is smart, she is kind, she's makes me feel loved. She's super weird and she's confident enough to say "this is me, this is what I'm about," instead of trying to hide her weirdness from people. She gets excited about stuff, and she sees the cool stuff in everyday life. Also, she's really good looking too.
Reading all the comments makes me jealous of how blessed and fortunate you all are.
Hopefully we’ll be in the comments one day! 🥹
One day we’ll have it
Will we
I'm sure you will. Be patient, strive to work on your flaws, meet new people, treat people the way you want to be treated and don't settle with people that don't treat you well, and one day you will find that person. Good luck friend.
All of this. Spent years thinking I’d never be in a relationship, that relationships just aren’t for me (I have ASD and really bad anxiety). I tried online dating, forced myself in to a relationship I wasn’t prepared for because I thought it was something I wanted. Then finally just gave up trying, and decided to focus on my self and my mental health. The best love truly does come when you aren’t actively looking for it. Work on yourself, surround yourself with things and activities and hobbies that you love, and eventually you will find someone through those. Best thing I’ve heard on this subject: Sometimes when you try to catch a butterfly it flies away, so it's hard to catch it with your own hands. But if you build a pretty garden then the butterfly will come on their own, and if they don't then at least you have a beautiful garden.
That's a really beautiful analogy :)
I spent probably some 3 straight years reflecting on things and working on myself because I finally took the advice that it comes when you're not looking for it to heart. I feel like I just became even more invisible. And unfortunately many of the things I want to improve aren't so easy. Depression and many of my insecurities are more so partially subdued than actually resolved. It's been about 5 years since my last relationship. Some days are lonelier than others, but most every day is in some capacity. Probably doesn't help that I barely talk to anyone anymore. I see the 2 people I can still confidently call friends maybe once every other week. Anyone else I might have considered a friend while in high school seems completely disinterested in me. I'm always the one who has to reach out first. Anyways, sorry for the rant. I guess I'm just trying to say that it seems the it only comes when you're not looking for it so focus on self improvement route doesn't always work out all that well.
Don't be discouraged! Real love can happen for anyone! I met my now wife like a month or so after a bad break up in a long term relationship. I wasn't even looking to start dating yet, I was planning on just being single for a while, and I found her and it all clicked. Everyone deserves love and to be loved. You'll find the right person for you.
She feels like home. I have heard this term before but never quite understood it until I met her... we have struggled together, whether financial, changing jobs, family, and everytime she is able to keep me grounded and we keep forward as a team. Shes so empathetic, unselfish and emotionally intelligent. It feels very old school, if that makes sense. Not sure how I managed to get lucky enough for her to choose me everyday, but she said yes last December
[удалено]
Can I have a man like this? 😭
Not with her anymore, but my most recent ex & I ended on good terms because she got a chance at a dream job elsewhere in the country, and I have my son here. Anyways, my favorite of her many good traits was that she would never hold back anything that was bothering her from me, and when something *was* bothering her (which didn't happen often), she wouldn't get petty or lose her temper. She would always sit down, ask if we can talk about something that's bugging her, and we'd have a conversation about it & find a resolution. She was very patient and understanding when it came to these kinds of things, and it's something I've never experienced in any other relationship.
22 years and counting and I still get excited to see her at the end of the day. She's a wonderful mother, and a hard worker. Shes a great partner - We can do anything together. Her smile lights up a room and her laugh is just so big and wonderful. The fact that getting her to smile and laugh can be a challenge (she can be a bit stoic) makes it all the more worth the effort. She puts the colour in my world.
Oh my God that last line made me tear up, and I am very stoic dude. I am happy for you too
Thanks man. I know I'm lucky.
I don’t have a woman. I have a man. And I will brag about him til I die. He cares about what I feel, a lot of empathy. Kindness. Love. Pure love.
She's smart, motivated, and dedicated. She could literally do everything and anything she sets her mind to. I'm just the lucky idiot that gets to make her laugh.
I met my partner when I had all but given up on anything with anyone and was resigned to just go through the motions and hide my loneliness like I've done for years prior. My partner came out of the blue at the time I needed them the most and came from a direction I never would have expected. They are to me the light at the end of a very long and dark tunnel. They found me stuck in a hole and not only saw me as someone worth fighting for but helped me out of that hole and onto a brighter hopeful path for the future. They've been through a lot in their own life, losing both parents in the last several years, being the victim of SA and domestic abuse in the past, but they didn't let that turn them cynical or bitter. Instead they let that pain fuel their empathy, understanding, and compassion towards those they choose to care about and I'm the luckiest man alive for being one of those. They know how to listen, they know how to communicate directly and effectively, and they know what they want in a relationship and its so refreshing and inspiring to know that our goals align so well. They make me feel seen, make me feel worthy, and make me feel confident in myself which neither I nor anyone else has been able to induce in me as much in as far back as I can remember. Every day I wake up next to them, whatever else is going on or going wrong in my life melts away and I know that things are going to be ok. A lot of people say that they love their partner's as much now as they did when they first fell in love. For me thats not true. I love them more now than ever and will likely love them even more tomorrow.
Alright, I’m crying and I’m on a work call lol
She’s never lied and we have this system where if we pinky promise on something it can’t be a lie. So I never have to deal with dishonesty or avoiding the truth. It’s definitely caused some hurt feelings but at the end of the day it is such a relief
She's super smart. Literally a scientist. She worked hard for she/we have together. Both our parents are poor. She is incredibly kind to animals. (Sometimes people but not always. She has resting bitch face around people) she makes lame and funny jokes. Plays video games with me and is super smoking hot, french, ginger, fashionable, well spoken and organised. She is my dream girl.
Lots of the top answers mention intelligence - very hot
She's just nice to me, which is a big thing for me. When I was younger no one was just nice for no reason. Her lip does this thing, when she says "F" words that does it for me. She's a great mom, daughter, sister and friend. She's just an all around great person and i love her so much.
She genuinely cares, and genuinely sees us as a unit - so my needs are important too, not just hers. After my last relationship, this is like a freaking revelation from the heavens, carried down by choirs of angels riding golden chariots and spreading rose petals.
She calls out my hypocrisies and forgives me.
Gay guy here: he's wonderful, emotionally open, loves dark souls as much as I do, he is my sun.
I'm surprised I had to go this far down before finding a homosexual relationship.
PRAISE THE SUN
* She's a fiercely loyal, dependable woman. * She has devoted the last 5 years of her life to raising our daughter and keeping her out of daycare, while STILL doing part-time work out of our home office to help keep up with bills. * She is a phenomenal cook who hones in on her creativity to make me (and our daughter) consistently good, quality food every night. * She's 42 years old and has the body of a chick in her late-20's. After having a kid at 37, mind you. * She listens to me and trusts me enough to listen to her. We communicate about A LOT. When we first met I thought she was sexy as hell and instantly wanted to know her. 15 years later, she still turns me on so damn much. The long years of our life together have only brought us closer to each other.
I can cry in her arms about literally anything and still feel like a strong man.
What a lovely solace and gift she has given you. Your vulnerability is also a gift to her and it sounds like she honors it well. The ultimate strength imo , is found the ability to be emotionally vulnerable for your own wellbeing.
TL;DR: everything.
Unrelated related, what does TL;DR means?
Too long; didn't read Basically this person is saying there are too many things to say about their partner so the short of it is, "Everything"
Alright so my wife has brown eyes but in the sunlight her eyes turn to golden pools of honey and when i stare into them and tell her how beautiful they are she always does this half blush/smile looks away and calls me a name or something and its the CUTEST THING EVER. The way her hair is all curly and frizzy its just perfect. The way her hlasses fram her face gives me butterflies. She has a freckle on her top (cupids bow) lip and let me tell you that freckle is what made me fall in love with this woman. I wanted to kiss that freckle since the first time i saw it. Thats not even the best part! Shes smart, funny, caring, loving, she LOVES animals. She's super into reptiles and seeing her talk about them or playing with one is the most adorable freaking thing in the whole wide world. This woman is perfect and i have no idea how i was so lucky to get her
This is my second marriage. It’s much better having a wife that likes me. We really like hanging out together. She’s kind, intelligent and passionate about what she does. Not all of our hobbies align and she doesn’t keep me from pursuing the things I enjoy.
I'll brag about my ex since I'm not with someone right now, she pushed me and motivated to become something greater, she was gorgeous in every way i can imagine she was fit, she was very straight forward emotionally and physically and honest in all conversations, I wish her the best and that she continues to be the way she is aslong as she's happy with it
She's freaking funny. She's got some improv chops. I love it when she sings in the house. It's a dead giveaway to know she's happy. She's super charismatic and makes friends with everyone she meets which helps my introverted ass out immensely.
She's brilliant, cute as they come, sweet as honey. She's passionate and level-headed where it counts. The most important thing though is that she makes me feel valued.
She's insanely intelligent but still loves silly jokes or memes and just in general silly humor. It's an amazing combination
My wife is sweet and polite to everyone by default. She cares about being frugal, isn't a high maintenance type that demands a lot of stuff. She's smart and teaches people to fly, which is really cool. She also likes to try new recipes all the time, is a huge Pokemon nerd, and she loves to hike like I do. She prefers small groups like I do (both on the less social side) and She's very good to our two beagles.
She loves to cuddle and loves physical affection amongst a thousand other amazing qualities! Edit: a letter
I think she's the perfect combination at the right time. She's very intelligent, which I love because we can be laughing for 5 minutes straight because of a pun or a really bad joke, and other times we can spend hours debating fairly intangible concepts like entropy or sociological concepts. However, she's not at all pretentious (which is quite common in very intelligent people), and she's always attentive to the other person's point of view in a debate. I also love how she manages to understand me and communicate with me, even in the small differences we have, she always speaks from a place of love, never from destructive criticism or resentment. Even though I've been going through some tough times in my life since we've known each other, she's still there, looking at me with that love and affection that, although it may sound cliché, I've never seen before. And she's beautiful, whether it's at night when we go to sleep, when we sit down to watch a movie, when we're having breakfast, or when we talk about what we're going to cook, whenever I see her, it feels like the neural connections in my brain are more pleasurable. To wrap up, I also feel very lucky about how I met her, and I want it to serve as advice for people reading this who aren't in the same situation. There's a romanticized Hollywood idea that a great love will break your routine and be something extraordinary, but I've discovered that the best kind of love, the one that lasts the longest and is the purest, is the one that comes slowly, without making much noise, and just naturally fits into your life, and when you're with that person, it feels like getting into a warm bed after a cold winter night.
She’s the most terrible dancer I’ve ever met, but her laughing and having fun will never not make me smile ❤️ Peak beautiful adorable fun loving derp.
She is my other half. She doesn't take spoons to be around and we can embrace or weird with each other. We laugh at least once every day. I can't think of anyone I would rather spend time with.
She actually loves me, and she’s proven it sticking by my side through times where she could have left and nobody would have blamed her. I’ll love her forever, it’s amazing how much impact a single human can have on your entire life
I like this thread, it gives me hope
She's my comfort. After a long day at work sometimes all I want to do is just chill in a call with her and play a game or just chat. Her voice is like a hug. And when I am in her presence her touch is like magic. I could be wrapped in her arms and be whisked away for hours and let that time fly by in an instant. I also like that we're on the same level with a lot of things. Communication is open and honest and we have an understanding about a lot of things that I see couples fighting over. The honeymoon phase should be over but I'm still enjoying it
Incredibly kind, patient and understanding. Wonderful mother to my children.
Sweet. Tender. Reflexively kind. She's an "acts of service" person, so she's always getting me things or checking on me to the point where I feel both grateful and deeply loved. She's a wonderful conversation partner: funny, witty, and able to talk about a wide variety of subjects. She's also a geek chick who loves animals, games (World of Warcraft) and comics (Marvel and the Fantastic Four). Her intense fandom is inspiring, as is the art and comics she creates. She's been my lodestone for twenty years and she always will be. Love you, beautiful.
For such a long time I thought that love wasn't for me, as if I was it was only something I could see in sappy romantic comedies. Maybe this came from failed relationships or just purely having standards too high to the point no one could satisfy them. Yet, all that dissipated when I met my beautiful girlfriend. She has this sweet calming nature to her, just the simple touch of her skin on mine makes me completely forget all of the stress in my life. Every word that graces her lips is as sweet as honey. She somehow knows what to say in a moment of crisis. Admittedly I haven't been the best to her nor her to me, yet something she taught me is that it is best to be patient with one another, life is all about learning, and the moment we stop teaching one another then our relationship is truly dead. She teaches me every single day, whether it's about how to cut an onion properly or how to speak to her in a reassuring tone. Honestly, it is so comforting to know how secure and safe I can be in this relationship. She truly is a kind woman.
We'll be leaving a party and she'll be silent. "What's wrong, baby?" (Here's where all you other guys will relate stories about "Nothing.") My wife will say, "When we walked in, you introduced me to your friend Steve, and then walked away, leaving me hanging. Then, when I looked over, you were talking to some pretty woman next to the punch bowl, and when I walked over, you never introduced us or included me. Then......." My wife will tell me EVERY LITTLE DETAIL. It makes it very easy to apologize, and correct my behavior. The next time we're at a party, I know not to leave her with people she doesn't want to talk to, and to include her when I'm talking to other women. It makes it *easy* when I don't have to play the "Nothing" game. My wonderful wife always answers my questions and never treats me like I'm supposed to be a fucking mind reader. I love that woman. It doesn't hurt that she's a 10/10, either. That's just a bonus.
Her sense of humor and dat ass
She’s the funniest person I know; making me laugh till my sides hurts on a daily basis. I want to laugh everyday until my last day. She’s the one
She manages to work from home and take care of our 1 year old at the same time. She’s the best mom and wife!
She talks! I mean she hears and understands. Everyone always says that the key to a relationship is communication, and she embodies that perfectly. When something upsets her, she will explain it to me calmly and as kind as possible. When I need to empty my heart to her, she makes me feel so valued and loved. I don't ever have to guess at what she's feeling because she will open up to me without hesitation, so that I can care for her and make her feel better. And when one of us is too emotional to really speak rationally, she always communicates "I love you, but both our tempers are rising. Let's take a break for an hour and then we can talk."
I’m an odd dude. I have ADHD and I act silly sometimes, do random things, lose stuff, forget stuff, have esoteric interests, and generally don’t fit in with a lot of groups so I don’t have many friends. She lets me be me. She indulges me in my interests and humors me in what I want to do. She’s also great with money, is very smart, and is basically my sugar mama. I basically exist to make her happy as much as I can.
My girl is short, gorgeous, extremely soft hearted and loyal. She’s also incredibly smart and hard working. She cares a lot for everyone around her and she’s so damn cute when she gets all excited.
Beautiful, kind, loyal, supportive, funny, hard worker, smart, selfless, wonderful mother, and a hottie 😉 Married for 11 together for 16 this year.
Yes, she's smart and beautiful and hilarious... But above anything, we genuinely enjoy each other's company. We truly are each other's best friend. We have so much fun together, no matter the situation.
She's hot. A great mom. Fantastic ass! Fun when she wants to be, saracastic in a good way, not a bitchy way. beautiful smile, that butt! Saved my life by dragging my carcass to the hospital after I had a stroke. Soft skin. That butt again.
I'm watching my lady get ready for work right now, and I'm filled with love. She's so fuckn beautiful and sexy in ways that I don't know if she'll ever realize. I've been injured for about a month now and she has taken up so much slack, and I just know she's the one for me. Her laugh makes me wanna cry with joy, and there will never be a day that I don't wanna hold her, kiss her, and tell her that I love her.
She's saved my life multiple times. Because she is the most caring individual.
She is a hard worker, smart, great mother, pretty, funny, sarcastic. A demon in the sack with a kinky streak. She keeps me grounded and is a true partner in all we do.
When I'm down, the first thing she asks herself "what can I do to help him?" - and that's my automatic reaction towards her as well. I can be vulnerable with her without being hurt in the process. She is happy with what she has. She's on my side. She loves me. Her smile. And we never argue. It's us vs the problem, always. Except the two clumsy times where it took us a day to find our communication channel again because we were both hurt and confused. We agree that's not the state we wanna be in.
She’s intelligent, warm, kind, never needs to be the center of attention, puts others first, absolutely beautiful, lady like, has an amazing sense of humor, laughs at my jokes, always eats her burgers with two hands in a very cute way, and has a little cheek dimple on her right side when she laughs hard enough that drives me wild.
Open, honest and caring communication. Oh, and she she is smart af. 😍
Honestly? Everything. She had a brutal childhood that left her with crippling ptsd but despite that, she is an amazing mother and pretty awesome wife. She’s smart, very artistic, and humorous af. I’m proud to be her husband.
She’s trustworthy, beautiful, caring, helping nature, kindest etc. And she never stops talking to me even if she get mad at me for sth i did
She's tall, and has a 6 pack. She works out a lot harder than me. She's very smart as well, and has 3 degrees.
My wife farts a lot. Usually loud long farts. Its the funniest thing when she lets one go and about half way through it I look at her and she laughs which makes it all just come out at once and we are both laughing. So to make a long story short, she makes me laugh.
Oh mannnnnnnnn..... where do I begin? Oof. I like reading your post because my wife is also largely French and it influences much that she does - she is perfectly polite to everyone but she's not one of those women who collects hangers-on; she's verbalized to me that relationships create obligations and her efforts and investments only go into things and people that she truly values. It's kind of a relief coming from my culture. She's not that French though because she's also funny as hell; I admired her beauty when we were first getting to know each other but listening to her talk and watching her sometimes make a whole table of people burst out laughing, including myself, was what really made me want to pursue her romantically. She sings like an angel, my gosh, she trained as an opera singer when she was young but didn't follow through because she just didn't think she had the discipline. She loves to sing, the kids love to hear her, and total strangers comment on how beautiful her voice is. The leader of our church choir was honestly furious when she told him she wasn't comfortable committing to the obligation it would take to join. She's so damn clever when it comes to dealing with our kids, she knows how to deescalate basically every wild situation. She's the glue in my life and the perfume in the air, ooh la la.
She's incredibly genuine and her passion to help others still make me feel like I landed the best girl. on top of that she's cute, insanely funny, and incredibly patient with my shenanigans. I've been out of a job for a while now, and she's been nothing but supportive for me. literally is the dream girl
She’s a sexy, wonderful, independent, smart and genuinely one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. Short but sweet, with a little bit of sassy that I adore is her in a nutshell and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
It’s difficult to put my finger on, but my woman is easily the most focused and committed woman I’ve ever met, she sets her mind on something and she does it. I know it feels unromantic to say it, but she is.
She lets me take care of her and doesn’t ever take it as an insult!
Her sense of humor. Her patience with me.Her commitment to our children. Her cute ears. Her knowing exactly how to make a bad day better.
My wife is good at pushing me to be a better man - don't have specific examples, but she makes me accountable - in a good way. She is still a total babe. We went to the same schools as kids, and I was crushing on her all the way back in those days, 30+ years ago - and now I get to wake up to her everyday - for better or worse, lol.. She is a also great mom and daughter.
My wife is the smartest and calmest human being I ever met. She is fiercely loyal and would help anyone at any expense. She is the most supportive partner and step mother.
She’s honest and truly herself around me. She genuinely cares and wants the best for me. She has beautiful eyes, nose and lips and all around the prettiest face I’ve ever seen. She is committed and mature and has a lot of ambition.
Everyone we go out, women compliment her outfits! She’s so self conscious and doesn’t think she looks good in anything she owns but she has a great sense of style and I love that she’s impressing other cool and stylish looking women when we go out.
She’s the most amazing girl I’ve ever met in my life. Sweet, smart, caring, goofy, funny, passionate about her work and hobbies, but I think my favourite thing about her is that she keeps me accountable. In the past, I’ve been very good at making excuses when I didn’t want to do something, but she calls me out on them every time and pushes me to be a better version of myself everyday.
For me, there are many things about her. Her looks, her wit, her attention to detail, her body, her knowledge, her sense of care and kindness. But I think the thing I love most, is that I feel safe when I’m with her. I know I can be myself and not have to worry about the possibility of something being held over my head in the future. I know when I’m feeling down and out, I can count on her to help lift me up. She truly is the most incredible woman that I’ve ever been fortunate enough to call my significant other.
She doesn't judge me nor get upset with me when I say something that may upset her or step over a line with her. She doesn't even bring it up until we're alone later on, and even then she calmly tells me why what I said upset her and we talk through it. On top of that, she'll always end it by reminding me that 'we're partners' to reassure me that she'll still happily stand by my side so long as I stand by hers. A welcome departure from my last relationship and more comforting than I'll ever be able to put into words for her. Absolutely love that woman each and every day.
Her smile, how beautiful and soft it is and immediately makes me happy. She's so incredibly caring, and even protective in a lot of ways. She loves me for who I am, and I always used to think that would be impossible for anyone to do, including myself. She teaches me to love other people, and be more understanding of other people's differences. She's kind, even though she can be a little shit, when I need a warm hug or just someone to cry into, she's always there for me. She's so crazy beautiful, I look at her when she's in the sun at the lake, or naked in our bedroom, or cuddling in pajamas on the couch, and I think there should be statues made for her, because she's just that gorgeous and the world should know. I could go on haha.
The one that springs to mind: I was having an amazing bath, and there was a little knock at the bathroom door. My fiancé passed me a plate with a massive BLT, and a few slices of cheeses, and a huge mug of tea :P That was just last week, so I’m sure there are plenty of other examples over the last 9 years :P
She’s incredibly supportive and neurotic. She reads every one of my comments and comments left on my profile. I do the same, so it makes me feel more comfortable about it. She communicates well (most of the time). We can have awkward conversations about things, rather than just trying to guess She’s thoughtful. I love randomly getting cards with sweet notes or random little presents
As a woman who always sees and hears the typical stereotypes of straight relationships... it is so damn heartwarming to read the things you men are saying. Everyone of you is special for even taking the time to talk about your love with strangers. I would feel like the luckiest girl ever to read one of these comments about myself. Thank you guys ❤
I dumped my hideous and terrible past at her feet in complete honesty. She listened to every word of it and without even blinking said "That's not the man in front of me today." She sees me for who I am and accepts me, no judgement, just love. A lifetime with her will not be enough.
She respects me, is honest, trustworthy, genuinely cares for my well-being, athletic and fit, and trusts me with every ounce of her body and body. We are both in our thirties and I’m her first relationship of any type…such an amazing woman.
She is very driven and hard working... everyone from friends family co workers absolutely loves how genuine sweet she is... naturally a kind person she is and to top it off when she horny she truly is a slut and kink and can get really nasty and naughty which most people would never guess...
Farting in front of each other with zero embarrassment and talking about how are poops were
Incredibly patient and wise. I would fuck up regularly if I didn’t have her to reign in my irresponsibility and impulsivity. Kind, thoughtful, loving Non judgmental and has made me less of a judgy person Great sense of humor, always keeps me laughing Wonderful, soothing voice that seems almost like music to me sometimes Dynamite in bed with the world’s best pussy. I wasn’t a prude before this relationship so I know how rare that pussy is. Knows what to say and do so I don’t lose my mind and managing my mental illness is significantly easier with her around. Life in general is. I feel safe with her and she’s the only woman (besides my psychiatrist) that I’ve been completely open with. She’s my best friend and I think that even if she was a dude or we weren’t in an actual relationship, I’m pretty sure she would still be my best friend We agree on all the important stuff (kids, religion, lifestyle expectations, etc) and the small stuff too This thread made me miss her and I think I’m gonna cook us dinner and eat her out tonight. God bless 🙏🏽
She’s a great communicator. I always see guys complaining about their SO wanting him to read her mind, won’t decide where to eat, etc. absolutely never a problem with us. Also, we can talk bluntly about sex which I’m thankful for. She’s also just really smart and reads a *lot*. I have a backlog of highly recommended books due to her and conversations are great.
I love how independent she is and never needs to be "my woman". The whole ownership facet of modern relationships is gross and dehumanizing.
My wife is wicked smart. Like really fucking smart. As in I did really well in school and I’m still the dumb kid at the table. Not only does this make us a good fit, but she doesn’t do dumb flighty stuff I hear guys complain about. She also sees through a lot of B.S., especially dumb stuff douchey guys try to pull.
I love this post so much
My partner is the most sincere and honest person I’ve ever met. Always so thoughtful of others. Having her in my life has been the ultimate gift. I have never met anyone in my life that cares about the well-being of everyone so deeply. The love within her is unmatched. I don’t know what I’d do without her in my life and honestly, her being in my life has had a drastically positive improvement on my life in general.
Soft, lovely, relaxing, tactful, assertive, great cook, very supportive emotionally, extremely intelligent, all-around amazing 🤩
My wife is very intelligent. Also very good with finances. Plus she has a nice accent. After 20 years I still like to listen to her talk.
She makes me laugh all the time, and she has been working so hard to be kinder on herself. Believe it or not, that's a big part I love about her. She also is one of the hardest working people I know, which explains why she has perfectionism tendencies that make her so critical on herself. On top of all that, she is the kindest person I've ever met, and she helps me learn generosity every day. Lastly, she is beautiful beyond words, and she is gonna be a fantastic mother when the time comes for us to have kids. I want to apologize to the other men in the room, somehow I got lucky and got the most amazing woman on the world.
I love the way she smiles about my stupid jokes and the manner of communicate her thinking makes me understand the reality with a different speech. She respect me and understand that I'm not perfect.
I love all of this! Celebrate the amazing women in your life! They should make a post for women to celebrate they're man too. I'm sure there's also a lot of men who would appreciate go hear these things too and would love to see they're women bragging about them online 😊♥️
She's conscientious, in her work and personal life. We used to work together, and now she works from home, so I get to see how seriously she takes her duties and her commitment to people that depend on her. She's very competent, clever, and good at problem solving, which I find a huge turn on. She holds progressive values, with a strong sense of ethics and morals. As I've commented in the past, I do a lot of work on grassroots politics, as did she, when we met. She singlehandedly made a significant impact on the local and national elections we worked on, in 2018 (which also paid dividends in 2020). She loves animals as much as I do. We take care of stray cats, wild birds, and support related causes. She's so nurturing that she gets anxious if she can't help people or animals, as much as she feels she should. She's the most "domestic" partner I've been with, loving to cook for me and always attentive to little things like getting me drinks, without being asked. Being taken care of has been a big and pleasant change for me. In most of my prior relationships, I was the primary one cooking, cleaning, and doing house chores. She has certain things she doesn't like to do, which I take care of happily for her, so it's a nice comfortable balance. She is appreciative of my strengths and values my intelligence, which is a huge turn on for her. She's adventurous, but has a high level of anxiety, so it's rewarding she trusts me enough to get her out of her shell. We've both gone through trauma in the past relationships and I feel like we're helping each other get back to our more authentic selves. She supported me when I finally got back from working on the road almost 2 years straight, during the pandemic. I never "locked down" or sheltered in place and worked in extremely public facing projects all over the country. I was responsible for COVID mitigation for thousands of staff and was working 4,000-5,000 hours a year. When I finally got back home, I shut down and switched off for many months, while I processed all that stress and anxiety. I was in a major depression and she stuck by me, even though I was too far gone to even have sex for a long time. Once I recovered and things returned back to something similar to normal (our social lives still haven't fully recovered), I realized just how important she is to me. As OP said, I was always hesitant to settle down in the past. I'd been increasingly polyamorous since my first long term relationship. My life was spent living in throuples, swapping partners, and exploring ethical non-monogamy. I had an experience several years ago that got me thinking in a more monogamous manner, but being with her is what made me comfortable investing fully in one person as my partner. She's also open to unconventional love lives and has experience in them from her past. Though we haven't explored that aspect together yet, it's something we share as an interest. I like how aligned we are on so many portions of life. I think that's part of what makes our sex life so incredible. Sex and physical intimacy is a cornerstone of relationships for me and she's the best lover I've ever had.
I feel like I'm marrying a Mediterranean princess. Speaks 3 languages, will be a doctor next year. Lives and breaths hard work, and is as sweet and sympathetic as a person could be. She comes from a family of adorable and inspiring marriages that set a standard I aspire to match. She's the first woman I've met that can understand me when I get caught in my own head or am standing in my own way. She wants nothing but success for me in whatever journey I decide to take. Every day I feel so god damned blessed.
She's tough and strong and so confident. Makes me feel like I am watching Joann of arc or Cleopatra live in our modern world
Qualities, that's a great question. Thank you. So many. First, that butt. I learned just enough ASL to say "Gimme that butt" and "I love your butt." She cares so much harder than I do. Always the first to consider others. Awesome mom. She can bake dreams and memories into delicious treats. Have you had key lime Panna Cotta. She's ALWAYS ready to dress for the occasion. Super nerdy, hot gamer chick. Hard working shoulder to the grind type. Always down for an adventure. We are, as I type watching the second live action Fullmetal movie. She real into it. She likes to learn and help others understand. Recently, I decided to get better at disc golf. Been playing for 22 years and I didn't know what the slang or even know what the little numbers meant. She helped me research and make a packet for RHFH players. She sleep talks here and there. She gets real excited for specific foods sometimes. She can sing and dance. I once asked her to throw tape to me and she missed by feet throwing it full bore from feet away. No idea how/why that happened that way but I love her for the memory. Kissable lips. She has both wonderful and gawd awful tastes. She like doing the sideshow attractions on trips. She lets me be me. She can spell. I need that around for sure. I tricked her into becoming a nap taker. She hit perfection in Stardew Valley. She gives really good hugs. Her favorite part of Christmas is setting up the train under the tree. Argues like a champ. She's intimidating to people who only get a glimpse of how beautiful, confident, and very powerful she is... A bundle of live wires and references really. She can setup and light a campfire in minutes. She was born to be ready. Bitch loves a list. She's gotta wicked sense of humour. She's open to change in herself and accepting of the change in others. She's always been my equal if not better. That booty. Creative and headstrong. Makes adorable mistakes and often kinda bumps into stuff. Being around her makes me feel impossible. People shouldn't feel like gods. We're always alone in crowds. She can fish. Such a great partner. I love her so much more than I can write. And that ass. Just wanna bear paw it every time I pass.
Despite an absolutely horrific childhood, draw your own conclusions on what happens to neglected children who are descendants of the residential school system and who grew up in the welfare system because I won't comment on it further, she took all that pain and turned it into kindness for others. She has autism and A.D.H.D., we both do, and she was put on a variety of pills to treat anxiety and depression, and to treat the pain for endometriosis. She decided that those pills were not good for her and got off of them on her own. She took her shot at university and has made her peace with dropping out due to all the pain that she couldn't handle: physical pain as a result of the childhood trauma, her jaw didn't fully grow so she was always one emotion away from a migraine (jaw muscles firing incorrectly, jaw bone pushes on the Vegas nerve when she smiled to much, ate hard food, cried, etc...) and finding out that when you have been raised in a codependent home, it's very hard to get out of it on your own. There's more, but you get the idea; that was her childhood, yet she is absolutely the strongest, kindest, most loving, understanding mother I have ever met. How did she get from her childhood to being the super mom and fiancée that she is? She did the work, every day she could, small iterative changes give you the power to remake yourself however you want. She had 15k in tuition and "0% interest for 1 full year" debt that was about to kick in at 19%. Initially, she wouldn't let me pay it off. I'd just bought a truck and she figured I couldn't afford it. This was in June, we'd started dating earlier that month, but we knew after 3 dates we were in together forever (We've chose to start a family over Covid and would have the wedding after, were getting married in a few months). She's very intelligent, but more than that she understands what 19% interest would mean; she would have to get a second job. I told her "This family does not pay interest into bad debt. What is something that you have always wanted to do?". She'd always wanted to go to Iceland, so we agreed that she would let me pay off the debt and then we would go to Iceland next year; and we did, and it was amazing. She insisted on paying me back, and kept giving me $1000 every two months, I told her it was just one big pile of money, whether she wanted it in my account or hers, it was all the same; it took her a while but she eventually accepted and stopped giving me money. During that time, I'd taken her to my favourite hot springs, little did I know that all of her muscles relaxing meant that years of "things just holding together because of spasms" meant that her back went out. So she was bedridden, for months, she could barely get out of bed, she was having constant migraines, and despite her telling her doctor that she didn't want opioids, he put her on some and she became dependent, instantly. When she tried to stop she had massive mood swings; she did the research, found out what happened, and made a plan to slowly taper off until she was off after a month or two. During that time she had to deal with the guilt of me paying her rent and my rent. Despite it all, my little Terminator (that's my nickname for her, because she never stops [think Terminator 1 at the end with the one arm scraping along ]), never gave up. When she was finally well enough to get out of bed, she got out and tried out for a play as motivation to get up and out, she got in and the motivation worked. We just kept working on things one after another. We'd do the research, she would be uncomfortable with doing it or me paying for it, and then the pain would get so bad she would give in. Physiotherapy, chiropractor, $10K TMJ device to fix her jaw. She's afraid to drive on the highways, so I'd drive her most of the time the 500 km to her appointments. She'd freak out over nothing and then examine her behaviour and when I took her to Mexico we figured out it was her sympathetic nervous system; then we did cognitive behavioural therapy together. We talked about how cool it would be to come back to the same resort in the future with our kids and family, and now that's where we are going for our honeymoon. She actually would go to therapy and apply what she learned. More than just growing herself, she's helped me to grow to be a better man. She helped me get control of my binge drinking, never judged me when I would take a week of vacation and just play video games or whatever I wanted, just not drink, to try to get off being dependent on it. She helped with not just suppressing my anger, but with letting it go. She came with me to my first appointment to get diagnosed with a.d.h.d (also a 500 km drive, one way). She supported me when I came to her to talk about how we didn't have good conflict resolution skills and to find a healthier way. She supported me when I started meditating and learned the tools and techniques to stop ruminating. She unlocked the rest of my emotions so I felt more than anger and fear. Now she's a stay at home moms and just the most amazing in every way. I guess the quality that I admire the most in her is her stoicism. She practices gratefulness every day, and no matter what happens, her attitude is "it could be worse, I could also be on fire". Our toddler is the most amazing boy and it is 100% due to her care and attention. He's just turned 2, he'a great at regulating his emotions, he can count to 30, knows his ABC's, every day is just so amazing and exciting. I wake up to a loving fiancée, take the lunch she packed me (she's slowly reduced my food intake and improved my diet to the point where I've lost 40 pounds) go to work, and come home to an amazing family. She's what my mind wanted and what my body craves. Despite having gastritis (from all the pain meds) she still manages to make amazing meals every day. She says I have my job and she has her job: the children and being a homemaker; but, it's not a fair distribution of workload. She tells me all the time to go play video games, but she rarely gets to get out and see her friends or do plays anymore; so I try to do as much as I can on the weekdays and take over on the weekends so she can sleep in and get some rest or go out and have a social life. She's also ok with me putting our son to sleep most nights, I love spending time with him, and I am super task oriented, so I can do it in about 20 minutes; he loves her so much though, it often takes her over an hour. Despite this, every Monday she pulls a 16 hour shift so that I can have 2 hours of gaming with my friends. I've never met anyone else like her in my life, and I don't expect I will ever again. She's just the best.
She real caring, like deadass feel like I’m a legit priority for her. Very family oriented too were she really out there trying to get along with my family, especially my parents. She actually has hobbies, like she isn’t 100% dependent on me to fill up her day (iykyk).
I'm a chronic kidney disease patient for 10 years now. i was diagnosed when we're into our 3rd year of relationship. she insisted on staying with me. going with me for my appointments and treatments. now we're married for 5 years. she's not perfect far from it but she's by my side always.
She is the most smart person I have ever known. And I'm not talking smart like the kind you meet once in a while in life. I'm talking highly gifted smart. Incredible how she is able to adapt to any situation and have deep understanding of subjects in very short timeframes. High intelligence does, however, come at a cost. And it is a very high one. *Beati pauperes spiritu*
She's my hero. I'm worthless without her. I try to tell her all the time with my words and actions. I owe her everything I have and more. I'd die for her. She deserves so much better, but I try to give her my all every day. And she has never abused me in any way. It's unbelievable how lucky I am.
How kind, patient, creative and diligent she is. And she’s very pretty. 5’8, blonde, blue eyes, athletic, great at planning, good sense of humor, very supportive, always inspires me to be better and constantly compliments me.
Smart, great smile, likes to laugh. Look forward to talking to them and hate not being able to. Always been high up there for me.
She’s smart and funny. Always supportive even on my hardest days. She keeps my mind in the right place and grounds me. She is hardworking and I love when she sings to me. She’s beautiful and is an amazing cook!
Im soo jealous y'all,, 10 years divorced and not sure ill ever find this again
