2. "Lucky" - solanaceaeroot

I'll catch him staring at me randomly, and I'll often ask "what?" In a distracted way because I'm focussing on something else, and he will just say "I'm so lucky to have you". It's often at the end of a long working day when I'm hot and tired and just decompressing on the couch, and it catches me by surprise every time.

4. What a gentleman! - leafmealone999

"Before we go to bed, he always asks me if there’s anything I need before he gets under the covers with me. 'Water, a snack, anything?' When I asked him why he always says that, he replied 'I don’t want you to go to bed hungry or thirsty or without anything you need because I know you can be too shy to ask for things sometimes.' It makes me feel so safe and loved."

Calls me puddin' pop. Nuzzles his scratchy chin into my neck. Shakes my hand. Back story of the hand shaking: I'm his first serious girlfriend and when I kissed him for the first time he was so nervous that he shook my hand immediately after. It was so damn cute that I had to keep him.

9. Theme songs - venus-fly-trap

"Sometimes he narrates whatever I do with a little song. 'Now she is making grilled cheeses, cheese goes on the bread, now my girl is smiling because she likes my song, she is waiting for the grilled cheese to be ready, I love this girl so muuuuch' sometimes he even adds in some funny dancemoves. It's ridiculous but so cute and funny, it warms my heart."
