What do you love about your SO?

I love the fact that after almost 9 1/2 years together he’s still willing to put up with me…and enjoy it.

I can’t give a more ringing endorsement, believe me.

Her eyes.
The way she’ll sometimes speak Swedish to me when she’s not awake and doesn’t realise that she’s doing so.
Her kindness.
The way she can kill me with a look.
Her accent.
The fact that she knows me better than I know myself.
The way she smells after she takes a shower.
Her long hair.
The time she tried her Donald Duck imitation on the ducks at the zoo in an attempt to lure them into a photograph.
How she completely enthralled my family when they met her.
When she pushes her glasses down her nose and looks up at me over them.
How she doesn’t need to wear make-up, but looks even more stunning with it on.
When she brushes my hair.
Her kisses.
The fact that she wants to spend the rest of her life with a dorky skinny guy from the US when she’s from Sweden, for cryin’ out loud.
The way she says “yes” at the most opportune times. :slight_smile:

Jag älskar dej Anna-Lena.

Ditto these for Mr. TroubleAgain, plus:

-Tells me he loves me 100 times a day
-Snuggles willingly and freely
-Thinks I’m really smart
-Cries at sad movies (but don’t let him know I told)
-Spoils my critters as badly as I do
-Tells anybody who’ll listen how wonderful I am
-Encourages me when I doubt myself, celebrates with me when I succeed and comforts me when I fail

I love you, honey, and I’ve enjoyed the last 7 years and look forward to the rest of our lives together.

What I love about ‘im:
[ul][li] He finds the right words…sometimes warm and intimate, sometimes hot and heavy…even the necessary ass-kickin’, when it’s called for.[/li][li] Love the sight of him in the kitchen, cookin’ or doin’ dishes with The Offspring turned up real loud.[/li][li] The way he stocks up on li’l gifts to surprise me with.[/li][li] He fixes stuff.[/li][li] He teaches me stuff.[/li][li] His thighs.[/li][li] Neckspace.[/li][li] I can be terribly silly and dramatic with him.

Love ya, baby.

I enthusiastically suggest this as sig material for Montfort!

Now that I’ve gloated about the current SO, I gotta admit that this might have been my previous bf. :stuck_out_tongue:

How could I ever possibly hope to list everything I love about my Jessica? You see, she is my everything. I love her completely. All of her, no matter where anyone else or she herself might find fault, will always be dear and perfect to me.

Just know that this list would go on forever if I let it:

I love…

I love you, sweetie. Just six more days. And someday soon, my love.

This thread is making me a little sick.

So I’ll post here anyway.
His eyes- Two little star charts like the song.

The way he’ll lie with his head on my lap when he’s scared.

The fact that he cries at movies like Requiem for a Dream and Dancer in the Dark, and cries when I feed goldfish to my turtles.

He finds everything in the world so facinating, like a little child who has never seen the world before.

Also, depsite curling up on my lap, afraid, besides crying like a big baby at slight provocations, he’s one of the bravest people I know.

Ok. Im done for now.

(Yeah, maybe I should post this in the companion thread, but this one just seems so much more appealing. Maybe it’s because women are better writers, or because men are just so wonderful that people can’t help but gush eloquently… hey! stop hitting! ow!)

I love you because:[list][]You noticed that my eyes change color when I’m relaxed. I never even noticed that myself.[]You know my quirks, and not only do you put up with them, but you encourage them.[]You challenge me to think in ways I never did before, and show me that there’s always another way to grow.[]You fit so perfectly in my arms when we fall asleep.[]You’ve made me look at the world in an entirely new way.[]Though you insist that you’re the lucky one for having found me, I can’t believe that you would settle for someone like me, with all my flaws.[]After knowing things about me that I’ve never told anyone else, you still refused to see me as I saw myself.[]Your hair, your eyes, your smile, the way I can tell you’re dreaming about me when you’re asleep.…and because you’ve added so much meaning to my life that I can’t imagine my life without you.

Bryn, that is SO sweet!!!

I don’t have an SO, so I cannot participate, but after reading both of your posts, I just had to say that you both seem like the perfect couple. More power to you!!

As I echo hardygrrl’s “even though we’ve never met f2f yet…”, here’s some of the many things I love about Gunslinger.

  • His voice, his accent, just plain the way he talks. He says he speaks more carefully when he’s talking to me, because he’s afraid I won’t understand him if he mumbles…
  • The way he says “aww” and baby-talks to me
  • How he voicemails me daily just to say hello
  • His eyes
  • He’s damned cute!
  • He thinks I’m funny, and he’s funny himself
  • He’s really good at looking stuff up when I’m too lazy to do it myself
  • He’s got a mind for trivia like you wouldn’t believe. Ask him about old cars or airplanes or something, I dare you.
  • He’s the same nefarious brand of evil as I am
  • He’s an excellent porn star :wink:

What about the things we lovers of female folk love about our SO? Can we post here?

::not one to wait for permission, ahunter continues::
I love the way she can look askance better than anyone else on this planet. She is the most irreverent, most delightfully cynical, outrageously self-centrically inclined to assess things from her own ground, and has a sense of humor that lets her enjoy raising that one eyebrow and stare with that flat “ain’t no way / dream on buddy” gaze…

I love the way she whimpers when things aren’t going her way. Real “this isn’t fair” whimpers that make me giggle because who doesn’t feel like that only ever so often and never dare to whimper? Not that she can’t cope but that she shouldn’t HAVE TO…with pouts and sulks and everything…

I love the way she apologizes when she realizes she hasn’t been playing fair. She’s so obviously new at doing sincere apologies, it’s cute…

I love the way she rubs my back, which she HATES to do (“Oh God…oh all right…”) but does so well…
