BellaOnline Forums Relationships Marriage What do you love about him?

It's extremely helpful to focus on the positives of your spouse and relationship, even if there are things that are presenting challenges.

What is something you love about him and/or your marriage?

I'll let everyone else start or I'll never end. There are sooooo many things I love about him and our marriage. A list of things I don't love would be way shorter!

I'm a little surprised that no one is brave enough to post on this topic? Are all the readers and lurkers too down on their marriages and spouses to think of a single thing they love about their mates?

What *did* you love about him/her?

What attracted you to this person in the first place?

I've been wanting to post but I am not married anymore, and my last relationship was not a marriage. But, I will say I would have married my sweetheart some day if he had not passed on. So, in no particular order.....

I loved:

-His gentleness and caring
-His chivalry and respect
-His tender touch
-His warm hugs
-His perfect kisses
-His sensuality
-His sexy body and mind
-His fantastic dancing
-His sense of humor and fun
-His positivity
-His unique view of life
-His inner strength
-His faith in God

I miss him every single day.

I could go on and on.....LOL.

-His big, beautiful smile

Oh, Debbie. Please do go on...

Ok....

-He smelled great
-He gave wonderful massages
-He was smart
-He always wanted me to be happy
-He loved everybody

-Eating was an adventure for him
-He loved animals
-He lived every moment to the fullest

Ok....I think I'm done....at least for now.......LOL.

-His self confidence
-His affection and great snuggling

Ok......someone else had better take a turn here!

Debbie, I am loving your list. It makes me feel wonderful reading about him and his great traits and how you notice and appreciate them.

I think everyone has some great traits and redeeming qualities but people just don't take notice. Their attention immediately focuses on the negative traits because they are so loud and in-your-face.

Thank you for sharing such beautiful thoughts. What a great way to keep his memory alive here on earth! I invite you to keep adding to this list. I'm sure his spirit smiles to read what you write.
