Wonderful significant others
Wednesday, October 31, 2001 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I remember watching the Wedding Singer and Adam Sandler's character tells a story about how he knew that hsi girlfriend wasn't really the right person for him because when they flew over the grand canyon, his girlfriend didn't switch seats so he could see it even though she had seen it before.
Now, for those of you who are married or in long term relationships with someone, what is something that your SO has done that was so kind, so thoughtful that you knew they were the one?
I want to share something that my wonderful wife, Debbie has been doing recently. As some of you may have noticed...I stay up late. Usually working/hobby (my job is my hobby so it's hard to say where one stops and the other starts). But when I go to bed, I really like to read to get my mind "formated" so that I'm not thinking about work or whatevre. But that requires a reading lamp and the light keeps my wife up.
So I had been going in the other room since I didn't want to keep her up (and then would go to bed when I was done quietly to keep from waking her). But recently, she's begun going to bed with my reading lamp on specifically so she can get used to falling asleep with that light on. I never said a word to her, I would never think to ask her to do something like that. But isn't that wonderful? I am a lucky man.

I have been dieting. Last night as we were watching "It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" with our three year old daughter, my husband asked me if it was "OK" to get a piece of leftover Birthday cake (my daughter's B-Day party was on Saturday). I looked at him, and said "why are you asking me?" And he said, "I didn't want to eat it in front of you since you are dieting. I'll eat it in the kitchen if it bugs you." I thought that that was pretty darn nice! Of course, it didn't bother me..... the cake is Strawberry. If it was chocolate, that would be a different story!

I asked my wife to marry me (as you do) and she said "yes" 
That's an amazing thing for her to do

Me and the misses have been together now for almost 13 year (married since 99) and we seem to know what the other wants/thinks before a word is spoken. Kinda spookey though....
