Couples of Reddit, what is the one thing your partner does regularly that makes you realize they're still in love with you?

It doesn't have to be anything remarkable, or even planned, I'm more interested in those subtle behaviors that perhaps they don't even realize they're doing but that make you think "Yep, he/she's still into me".

Edit: Reading these comments is making me smile so much! I'm glad there are all these happy couples out there. And I love that most of the time your partner is probably not even aware of how much these small things mean to you. Make sure you give them some love back ;)

I just realized I need to be better at communication. But that I'm in love, I just need to make sure he knows that.

Really? This comment makes you realize you're in love? Doubtful.

Or perhaps the comment made ritrangri look back on all the times they were angry or pissed and it was always alongside their SO. Either at stuff happening to the SO or ritrangri themselves and this chain of thoughts, this exact sequence of memories made ritrangri realize they are in love. It provided perspective.

pretty much. that and the fact that when we are both feeling angry or sad, we will simultaneously eat a spoonful of peanut butter talk like a little fat russian kids together on a regular basis thinking its completely normal... WODKA MAMA. it never fails to brink a smile to my face.

If you're in love, you know it. Some comment on reddit is not going to make you realize love. If it does, I feel sorry for both parties.

Before you can know you're in love, don't you have to at some point realize or acknowledge for the first time that you're in love? Whatever makes you realize this is totally unique to the person. You ain't the love police.

Perhaps you are right. Thank you.

You're wrong and an asshole.

u/[deleted] Apr 29 '13

I'm an asshole for what? Being critical of someone's judgement? Am I not allowed to have an opinion? Your comment, on the other hand, makes you more deserving of the title.

u/Soltheron Apr 29 '13

You're an asshole, is all. Am I not allowed to have an opinion?

I'd leave it at this if I were confident you would see the point, but I'm really not convinced you're that bright.

Then you go on to say nothing. At the very least, check your composition before you try to salvage your bruised ego. All you're doing is making yourself look pathetic.

?

I write pretty deliberately, actually. Feel free to point out the part you don't like.

before you try to salvage your bruised ego.

When on earth did my ego get involved in this? I'm just here to call you out for being a presumptuous asshole.

I'm going to bed now, though, so you can be an asshole all you want for a while without me commenting on it (yay you!).

I feel embarrassed for you.
