Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

Inspired by this wonderful thread, I wanted to open things up a bit to include those of us who love our male partners. [sub]And ok, I will admit it, I wanted a chance to post about my sweetie. [/sub] :slight_smile:

What I Love About RickQ: An Admittedly Biased (and Probably Incomplete) List of His Particularly Admirable Traits, In No Particular Order

[ul]
The man loves to kiss. Honest. And he kisses really, really well.

His sense of humor. I am glad he likes my laugh, as he hears it often.

He knows what is important about me–and what is not.

His patience and understanding with my worries.

His story-telling abilities. [sub]Never you mind what the stories are about.[/sub]

His honesty. I have never trusted anyone the way I know I can trust Rick.

He is brave about talking things out with me, even hard issues when it is tempting to cut the conversation short or avoid the topic.

His romantic heart! happy, contented sigh

The way he feels in my arms–and the way I feel in his.

His gorgeous eyes and the expression in them when he looks at me. [sub]I would mention his amazing, perfect butt here, but it would embarass him, so I won’t. Trust me, though, his butt could compete for England.[/sub]

His willingness to talk on the phone, both with scheduled and illegal calls. Given that we live on separate continents, this is essential. I love the way we are reluctant to say goodbye, even when we have talked for hours.

PDAs!!! (especially the Always Excellent Hug From Behind[sub]TM[/sub] and the Escalator Grope[sub]TM[/sub], not to mention kissing on the tube, at the bus stop, on the street, etc. Throw in holding hands and you get the picture.)

Making love with him. Before we met, because I knew his character, I knew he would be a generous and passionate lover. He is that and more.

His intelligence, especially since he is smart about things I know nothing about. :slight_smile:

His willingness to leave his family and his country to be with me.

His gorgeous Yorkshire accent, especially when he calls me “my best girl.”

He is the best man I have ever known–tremendously caring, unselfish, honest–and it is a miracle to me that he loves me as much as I love him. Rick is the man I have looked for all my life.

I love you, sweetheart.

Ooh! I was hoping that somebody would start this thread! :slight_smile:

I love his laugh, I love his smile. I love his sense od humor. I love how my smiles are because of him. I love knowing that when we’re apart, he’s thinking of me as much as I’m thinking of him.
I love that he accepts me for who I am.
I love him.

I don’t have an SO.

Lemme guess…what you like best is that your SO is always close at hand, so to speak?

:rolleyes: yourself, buddy.

:Rick smiles and wipes away a tear:
Thank you, sweetheart.

I love you, Brynda

Rick

I love that I don’t have one.

I love the way she is so mysterious, I never know what she’s thinking.

I can never guess what she’ll be wearing, it is always something to look forward to.

When I see her smile, it can have a hundred meanings, or just one…

Most of all, I love how she is coyly waiting just out of my sight, anticipating that one glorious moment when we meet for the first time.

“So, how you doin’?”

11

His snuggle junction!

(and a bunch of other stuff, but mostly it’s the snuggle junction, and the way said snuggle junction smells)

12

Anniz, someone should set your posts to music :slight_smile:

What I love about my fiance? Lots of stuff, of course, but one that comes to mind right away is the way he always hugs me back when I hug him like he was waiting for me to hug him, and the rest of his day was just killing time.

13

I love about Jon:

His speaking voice.
His singing voice.
How a Southern accent comes out sometimes, just for a moment.
His laugh.
How me can make me laugh loud enough to wake the whole house.
His loyalty.
His honesty.
How he’ll listen to me bitch and moan without complaint, and how sweet and indulgent he is when I’m in a bad mood.
The way he sent me an .mpeg of himself just saying “I love you.”
The way that it takes us forever to say “Goodbye.”
His cute stomach, especially the little bit of “tummy fuzz.”
The way his forehead crinkles when he’s being serious.

In short, everything.
My friends have informed me that I’m a sap, lol.

We need more smarmy every now and then.

Some Reasons I dig Mr. Cranky:

-Makes me laugh every single day
-Puts up with my neuroses
-Accepts that I am the world’s worst housekeeper, an unreformable slob, and an incurable packrat
-Doesn’t steal the covers
-Is a fantastic, involved, loving, dedicated, patient father
-Is creative and artistic
-Looks up words he doesn’t know
-Builds/carves unbelievably beautiful furniture
-Lets Neil Diamond share space in the CD rack along with Led Zeppelin
-Finds me sexy

More smarmy fluff checking in

-He cooks very well, he is my grill-god
-His soft hungry kisses still make me feel like melted butter
-He still gets a hearty chub from said kisses
-Even when he’s upset, he still makes me smile
-His sarcastic humor (4 years ago we went to the zoo and were pointing out a lemur to then 2 year old son. A haughty voice informed us it was “a black-backed African Lemur”, to which hubby said “Thank you, Marlin Perkins.” Still makes me crack up thinking about it)
-The gentle but firm ass kicking he gives me(figuratively)whenever I need it
-He’s still my best friend
-When he borrows my car, he fills the tank up for me, and if the weather’s nice, washes it
-The look he gets in his eye when he’s armed with a flyswatter and a fly’s annoying him. My mighty hunter <swoon>

There’s more but I think I’ll end my list for tonight.
After 10 years, I still think you’re the cat’s pajamas, sweet thang.

He is an amazing and attentive father.

** Even though we’ve never met f2f yet…**

The way his voice sounds when he knows it’s me on the phone.

The teasing way he says “hey”.

He puts up with all my insecurities and doesn’t run screaming for the hills.

How sometimes he reads my mind-scary but exciting.

The fact we can have a two hour conversation just about music.

His goofy sense of humor.

How incredibly smart he is.

How incredibly sweet he is-his emails have brought tears to my eyes and/or made me smile numerous times.

When we do our goodbye ritual the way he answers “me” in his little boy voice when I ask him if he’s my Stinky Paws and how he immediatley asks “Who’s MY little ferret?”

And when he said I was his number one fantasy girl,that no one else even came close…::sigh::
