Since we read all about some of the couples that had arguments before 9-11 and never had a chance to realize how petty. We say I love you when ever we part company. She truly is the best thing in my life. ( I still mess with her)
We do that to- but we're not really "sappy" all that much.
There are things he does all the time that are very loving but not really sappy. As an example, I don't eat enough much of the time. He always puts a nice brunch/meal out for me at about 10:30 AM and reminds me it's there. He sort of bugs me about it, but I really do appreciate it because he's concerned about me being healthy.
He doesn't even drink coffee- but he makes a pot every morning when he wakes up so that I have coffee when I get up after him.
Things like that show his love for me, even though most people might think, "Meh, who cares?"
I adore Bob, and we have these little private jokes all the time between us with certain expressions (like "No, it not!" which is something my grandson says all the time). We probably are a couple of real dorks, but we don't care.
