to remember why you love your spouse?
i mean, do you really reflect on it? i cant even help but do it nowadays... my wife and i have made it through so many dark times that i feel like we can conquer the world now. its hard to describe how i really feel about her, about us. so, i figured i would start a thread. i would love to hear you talk about the things you LOVE about your spouse. looking back, i realize just how important it was that i did this so often when times were so hard. it carried me through. and it set me up to fall in love with her all over again, again and again and again.
so, ill go first... THIS is how i feel about my wife.
my wife is truly my closest friend. she is my confidante, she knows all of my darkest secrets. and yet she still loves me. whats more, she has let me see her, fully. she was afraid for so long that i wouldnt love her, but what i saw was someone who just wanted to be loved. she was just afraid that i wouldnt love her. but let me tell you something... when i finally got to see her heart, and her fears, and her ambitions, i fell hard for her. i dont know what it was, but when she opened herself up and made herself vulnerable to me, i couldnt help it. all i could think to do was just wrap my arms around her and laugh as loud as i could.
here was a girl who was so afraid that she was not worth loving, that nobody could love her if they really knew her, and she was beautiful. this is a girl i can be PROUD to call mine....
now, she does a lot of things that i love too... beyond just being and adorable and beautiful person. i love the way she tries to turn me on throughout the day.
what? going straight to sex is too crass? well, maybe im a troglodyte, sex is big for me. but what i love about my wife so much is that she doesnt hold that against me... in fact, she embraces it. she may reach down and play with my... ahem... or, she will bend over seductively and wiggle her butt at me... good lord...
but she doesnt stop there. she blows my mind in bed too.
so, now that im all turned on thinking about my wifes sexy bum shaking in front of me *drool*...
i should probably also mention that i love how she takes the time to calm back down when she gets frustrated. i mean, we still argue. but, she is fully willing to move past the arguments. whats funny is that i have learned to love her feisty spirit too. it used to intimidate me, but after she opened up her heart to me, i see it different. she is one hell of a firecracker.
i also love her work ethic. i mean, very few things are as sexy to me as seeing my wife put on some gloves and build stuff, carry concrete, etc. she even started up practicing martial arts lately. even more feisty firecracker wife for me, and i love it, because she is MINE ALL MINE! lol
but seriously, what i love most about my wife is that she NEVER gave up. even when things were tough and she sometimes said she WANTED to give up, she never did. she has faced down so many demons in the time we have been married that i cant help but be proud of her.
she makes coffee for me in the morning, she takes care of the house, she cooks, sets time aside for us, finds ways to stay connected when the army takes me away... she really is a godsend. i would say im a lucky , but i dont believe in luck. i believe in our ability to engineer our own destiny. and she certainly has shown me that she is capable and willing to engineer a happy one with me. what more could i want?
she is one hell of a woman. im glad we never gave up. we just had to love each other through the learning curve. and it was a hell of a curve, but totally worth it.
so, what do you love about your spouse? i really think its important to remember these things when times are tough. for me, i had to look forward... we never had happy times like this. i had to envision where i wanted us to go, because we didnt have those happy memories to reflect on. we had to work up hill. but it still had the same affect. it refocused us back onto loving each other instead of on all our little faults.
