How to understand that next to you is a loving partner? By small feats that a loved one performs every day. And if your everyday life consists of such moments, you are lucky: you have met true love.
Praise, support, reassure in time. Meet your wife late in the evening at the subway or bring a cup of tea to your husband who has been sitting at the computer for too long. We sometimes do not notice these everyday little things. But they are love.
Love is…
1. When you’re sick and he’s sitting in the kitchen with a chicken carcass and a laptop, searching Google for «how to make broth.»
2. When you give him your charger, although your phone will also soon sit down.
3. When you go to three stores to buy his favorite dark chocolate.
4. When your child does something and you look at each other with that special parental look that says: “We created such a miracle.”
5. When you come home late and your husband pours you a glass of wine.
6. When he sends you a short funny video every morning at the beginning of an acquaintance called “Good morning!”
7. When you decide not to celebrate your wedding anniversary, and then it turns out that you bought each other gifts.
8. When he finds and reads you a really boring book out loud because you can’t sleep.
9. When he did the cleaning!
10. When a partner stands with you for an hour in front of the stage waiting for Beyoncé to show up even though he’s not a Beyoncé fan.
11. When your partner says that you are beautiful, on the day when you feel that you look less than perfect.
12. When you fall asleep on his arm, but he does not wake you up, although his arm has long been numb.
13. When he watches three seasons of your favorite show all night long, so that in the morning he can start watching the fourth season with you.
14. When you first showed up at his bachelor pad and a week later he bought a toaster, coffee machine, and mixer «to make you feel more comfortable.»
15. When you tell how your day went, and he suddenly says: «I’m proud of you.»
16. When your sister invited you to a birthday party and he brings his favorite children’s book for her daughter.
17. When you are very tired at work and, as soon as you get home, you start giving him a massage.
18. When he saves some of your texts on his phone because they are «funny».
19. When you are on a business trip, you receive an SMS “Good night”, just like that, without the need to answer.
20. The first time he gets up early in the morning to make you breakfast and you wake up to the smell of coffee.
