What little/silly things do you secretly (or not) LOVE that your OH does

What I like most at the moment is when he asks me ' What do you need?'I never realized how much personal info is out there that can be used and abused to suit every purpose.0

Ah I love this thread!
I love that mine makes me coffee every morning and every night I get in from work.
If we're having lunch at home he'll make me a sandwich and cut the crusts off because he knows I don't like them.
If we're watching tv he'll happily let me sprawl across him even if he's uncomfortable.
If I'm in the shower he'll put my towel on the radiator so it's warm when I get out.
I love that when he kisses me he holds the back of my head :happyhear
Most off all I love the butterfly's I get when I see his face after he's been away for months.
Plus he's very hot in his uniform

> He gets me toast in a morning before he leaves for work.
> Before he goes to bed he will get me a blanket without me asking so I will be warm.
> He does all the cooking as he knows I find it a chore...and then he washes up too as it 'relaxes him' :T
> He will watch Take Me Out with me.
> He is happy to split the chores.
> He knows how I can be a little OCD over the cleaning so he makes a special effort to clean up his crumbs etc.
> He has cute nicknames for me (Sweetie - cupcake etc) which I love so he does it more.
> He knows how I love him in a shirt...so he makes a special effort to wear them more.
The list is endless.

And the most important thing I forgot was that he'll go out of his way to put a smile on my face. He knows I've not been particularly happy for the last few months after moving to Devon from Wales, but he does try everything to keep me positive. He knows I find it really difficult to meet new people so he's invited me to meet his friends girlfriends so at least I know a few people

I know he is in pain after spending all day in hospital, but still makes time to make me smile.I never realized how much personal info is out there that can be used and abused to suit every purpose.0

He knows how cold I get so always tucks my arms up in bed to keep me warm.0

Oddly enoughly I love it when bf purses his lips, espeically when he looks in the mirror! It makes me chuckle and sometimes he'll catch me chuckling then his cheeks go blushy

I love it that he has the odd chitchat with my cats (espcially the time when we were in the London underground train and he was talking to my noisy cat who was going to the vet asking him to 'shush' that was very sweet, whilst I was embarrassed I was so touched he didn't care what anyone else thought but just for my cat and even knelt down to speak to him.....oh the memory
)
When he cooks our meals every night, he's always following the recipes to a tea also whereas I just throw things together!
I love it when he folds my nightwear and pops it under my pillow
Even though it annoys me I do love the fact he's so passionate about recycling at home. Since i've known him I've become more conscious of it. We have about 3 different bins of various recycle bits! he's a good soul

He loves me despite all my flaws and insecurities, and is patient with me.

This is so cute!
My boyfriend (well he's 23, but I hate the term partner!!) does a few things for me.- He brings me a cup of tea every morning, despite the fact he doesn't always have one himself. My dad always does this when I'm home so it's something I love!!
- He buys me random little treats such as a chocolate bar or bottle of wine!
- He always makes me a hot water bottle for bed when it's chilly (which is always in our flat!!)
Just a few little things that make me smile

he's very affectionate and loves being snuggled up on the couch with me.
he tells me i'm beautiful when i've just woke up
he's so good at what he does! sounds odd but he's a developer and i heart geeks, love watching him write code.
watching the cat curl up on him makes my heart melt
'if you turn over i can spoon you' is the best phrase in the world
he worries when i'm driving. which sounds patronising but i think it's sweet. of course, it isn't helped by the many times i come home and say 'omg i nearly died!' when telling tales of bad drivers lol
he lets me squeeze the spots on his back. disgusting but i love doing it
he's so faithful that he never even notices if another woman is flirting with him.
he's great with kids and i know he'll make an excellent dad.
he's a proper goofball and makes me laugh and laugh. he once acted out the lyrics of 'comfortably numb' whilst driving home and watching phantom last night his great theory was 'maybe she's just sleepwalking then cracking one off in the cellar'. i laughed for ten minutes. it helps that i have a very childish sense of humour
he's very shy and easily embarassed but he's come to gynae appointments and tests and had his swimmers discussed whilst we're struggling to conceive and he's taken it all with such good grace, especially considering i have no shame and share way too much lol
I think we're seeing the same guy :rotfl:
The biggest thing I love about OH is the secret language of knowing looks, catch phrases and sign/body language. He's very very shy so doesn't really do public affections, but knows how to tell me he loves me and make me feel wanted without saying a word.
And whenever I'm sad he touches my nose and says "boop" which always cheers me up.
He writes me stories and songs and poems about my teddy bears for me to read in bed when he can't be there. (I have a build-a-bear addiction and he gave them all personalties).
And the best thing - he ignores all the TMI stuff that comes with looking after me when I'm having a bad day with my disability, knowing that I can hell him anything, even if I'm too embarrassed to ever tell anyone else, help me deal with it.0
