ii. "Nosotros can travel separately without issue and have no problem with the other having close opposite-sex friends without any externally imposed boundaries. I've had friends react very poorly to me 'allowing' my husband to go camping with a female friend. Firstly, he's a grown man, not a dog on a leash. Secondly, why would I bother to be with someone I couldn't trust at baseline? If something like that were to make me feel nervous, I'd accept it as a sign of us lacking trust in the human relationship."

—u/Thick-Ass-Chloe

"My partner has this scratchy wool blanket that he loves, and he uses it equally a showtime layer. I tin't stand it. I have a imitation sheepskin on one side, velour on the other side, and I utilise a weighted blanket on top in the cold months. When one of us invites the other under our respective blankets, it's a very clear signal that we desire fun to happen."

I've been told by a surprising number of people that they think maxim something also often makes information technology mean less, but that's full bullshit in my stance. Love isn't finite, and whether or non someone tells you they love you in one case or a hundred times doesn't diminish that love. It's not a mattress that gets worn downwards over time. If something happens and that's the final forenoon or night I ever see my wife, I can rest like shooting fish in a barrel knowing the last matter I said to her was 'I love you.'"

Every January and July we sit down, write a list of the household tasks that nosotros somehow fell into doing exclusively, and commutation them. This way, we always know how to take care of all aspects of our combined life, whether it's knowing which drawer to put the baking utensils in or how to renew our insurance policies. We don't want to fall into this trap where nosotros go so comfy splitting specific tasks that we would struggle to have care of our lives if one of us was of a sudden gone."

sixteen. And finally, "We express appreciation for what the other does, no matter how mundane. Taking out the trash, loading the dishwasher, simply making it to work on a rough day, cooking dinner, etc. It gets easy to take those things for granted, and resentment sets in. It might seem like setting the bar low, but sometimes just beingness a person is hard, and those efforts are all your partner has at that moment."

"Yep. I have ADHD and every household chore also whatever cleaning projection I hyper focus on is a BATTLE of my volition. So when my girlfriend does domestic stuff, I'm in awe at how hands she can merely do the thing and I'k very vocal with my appreciation! And she always expresses gratitude to me, because she knows information technology's but harder over here in this brain to both commencement and finish tasks."
