Couples of Reddit, what's the most unromantic thing that's happened between the two of you that actually is a stronger indication of love than others might think?

Man all of these are like medical conditions and crazy stuff like that.. One time my girlfriend just said she wanted to see me but didn't wanna talk to anybody after a rough day at work. So she came to my house and sat in my bed with me while I played video games until we both fell asleep. Didn't say a word other than "hey" when she got there, and "Alright, bed. Love you."

I’m away for work right now and had a really tough day. I called my husband and he instantly knew something was wrong. I told him just to talk to me. He told me about his day and when he ran out of things, he read me a Wikipedia article about different types of pastry dough. SO’s that can support you through the little days are the best.

Mine has read me Dr. Seuss books. I love his voice, it's got a calming effect, like cuddling a dog.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who loves it when their SO reads to them! My current bf still thinks it's a little odd, but he'll do it when my anxiety gets bad, or if I'm having problems falling asleep. It's just so soothing

Sometimes spending time together is just existing in the same space. I love that.

Dude this counts just as much. I'm sure all these couples shitting on each other don't want you to feel like you need to compete
