Sweet Nothings

I don't know if this belongs here or in Relationship Support, but Molly's thread about something sweet that Caden said to her inspired me to come up with this new thread. I thought it would be fun for us to post some of the sweet things that our partners have said to us.

So, I'll start. I think that the sweetest thing that Remi has said to me so far is this....

Remi: "My life is better since knowing you."
Katrina: "What did I do?"
Remi: "You did nothing."
Katrina: "I don't understand."
Remi: "It's not what you did. It's what your mom did. She gave birth to you."

:D

...and that would be the most precious, unselfish gift! Something that gave her life great meaning....

What an awesome thing to hear someone say to you...

Thank you Sandie. Yes, it was awesome. That's the way Remi is... he is not necessarily a romantic. He doesn't get all mushy with me, but when he does say something sweet, it is always powerful and takes my breath away.

When he proposed to me, I asked him what role does he think he should play in my daughter's life (she is 10). He said, "I will be to her whatever she needs me to be. If she needs me to be her friend, then I will be her friend. If she needs me to be a father to her, then I will be a father. It's really all about what she needs and wants." (sigh, what a guy)

thanks is in order...
hey...

thought i'd come out of hiding (looks like that my gf has over 500 posts, i have barely over 5 ) just to say a few words.

Firstly, I'd like to thank her, for many things which include being born, being alive, being alive in my lifetime, meeting me, finding things to love in me, and giving me many reasons and things to love about her. I'd also like to thank this place, agelesslove, for providing a really good place to step into from the outside musty air, to get a deep lungful of the good reassurance it provides. thank you also to all the wonderful members of this site, both those who have made me feel many differing emotions, all of which are good, and have enabled me to, even though I have never met any except Maria and Jim, get to know their personalities and make friends from all over the world (yeah, nows the time you're saying "wait, who...are you?" lol)
This place has not only been a haven for the members, though, it has also been a haven for those outsiders who have never posted, but found salvation, hope, or suggestions in the posts within.

I have to thank Tru again, beyond all my thanks for the board though, as each day passes in our lives, we get one less to first of all find our true love in life, and then one less day to spend with them, and though I may say it a lot of times, I would just like to say on here for eternity, on the place where she has found a great happiness..

I love you,
more than words,
more than actions,
and more than thoughts.
Each day, you find another way to make me come closer to understanding how beautiful you are,
and why I thank God each day not only for creating me to experience the pleasure,
but also for using one of his angel's to create you on this earth in my lifetime.
Thank you, for the gifts you bring to me each and every day.
As many thanks as I could ever give could never be enough to truly say how I feel about you, and how each day I wake up with a grateful heart of being blessed, a full heart from being loved, and a forever growing heart to accomodate the growing love I feel each and every day for and from you.

When I am having a hard time with this LDR....I need to go read all these things he has written me.

Here are some things I posted on another thread like this a little while back....


Truly Madly Deeply was the first song he asked me to download after he taught me how. I had never heard it before and I cried when I heard it! I put the song on repeat and left it playing for 2 days...NON STOP! All day...all night! I felt like a love sick school girl again! At the age of 42!!


Thank you
for this thread and the opportunity to give a little praise to my love.

He got up early to make breakfast and when he brought it to me in bed I saw that he had made cheese toast and the cheese was melted in the shape of a heart!

One morning in a hotel, when I was still half asleep, he said he was going down to the lobby to get me some coffee and he really ran over to the McDonalds across the street and brought me back my favorite breakfast sandwich.

He writes me love poems (He is quite good)

He wrote me a song (beautiful singing voice and he plays piano!)and recorded it on his computer and sent it to me as a file! He said a few words before he started singing, telling me that whenever I feel down or lonely he wanted me to have this to play and make me smile.

He went to the store and bought me Tampons!!! A 21 year old (or any man for that matter) in the store trying to pick out tampons? How sweet is that?!!

He gave me his shirt to sleep in so I can feel close to him when we are not together.

He says "OH! Did I tell you?" I say "What???" He replies "That I love you more than words?" (Extreme song and our little phrase we say to each other)

He calls me "Angel"

He started a thread telling of his love for me! To my surprise!

To be continued......

Wow, now that's what I'm talking about!

Whoa, Katrina and Tru, those were both beautiful posts!! We're all so lucky and blessed!!

Tonight, as he was preparing to go run some errands, Caden drove off, as usual, with the phone, and just before the signal wacked out, he sang "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" to me and told me to never forget it, keep it mind, because that's how much he cares about me. *sniff* I hate Diana Ross and it STILL made me cry!!

These are so sweet!

Rick sings to me...he played the guitar last week and sang Dream, dreaam when I want you and alll your charms...etc... he has a beautiful voice and has played music for over 37 years. :)

He always says things that I always wished a man would say, things that you have to tell some men to say or coax into it, things you just wish they would say naturally.

Once we were looking at a wedding dress, and I said that would be hard to wear at an outdoor wedding, the dress had a long train that dragged the ground, and he said "if you wore it, little fairies woud lift it up and carry it behind you cause you are so sweet. " LOL

Sweet comes so natural to my Prince Charming, as a matter of fact, the first words of my vows to him were; "My dear, sweet, Larry Shawn".

There is sometime in your life that you know you have heard the sweetest thing you will ever hear and it happened for me before we got married.

I was doing the stressed bride to be well and lamenting about the age gap of our relationship after having a rather trying day with my near 80 year old mother. I was worrying about the day that may come and he would have to be caring for me instead of caring about me.

I kept saying "doesn't it worry you?" and he kept saying "no, but it does you." I said yes and kept pressing him to "admit" worrying.

Finally, he said "ok, sometimes it worries me."

I said, "finally" " what is it that worries you?"

He said, "That I may be left here without you."

That did it, tears were immediate and I knew then we could handle the future problems as long as we were together.

The sweetest thing a partner has ever said to me came AFTER the relationship ended......

The ex-b/f (turned best buddy) has been unattached for quite a few years, and we were discussing his single state one day. I suggested that maybe he was being too picky about women, and not giving them enough of a chance.

He replied, "Sometimes I think that knowing you has spoiled me for most other women." Awwww......

i once told a girl that her laughter was a like a thousand dimes falling into a quiet silent lake. Yes, i know i'm very smooth. Don't all you ladies PM me all at once now. One at time...:D

Edit: due to the massive influx of complaints about one at time, i've decided to accept two at a time. ;)

bump -- come on, surely there are more sweet things our partners have said to us.

He calls me his *delicate flower* and then makes this flower @~>~~


:D I really, really, really love him....

Lately I'm being referred to as "Honeyhead". :D

Ok. Here's another sweet thing Remi has said to me. I was very concerned about how he would feel about my weight before we met. He had seen full-length pictures and had seen me on cam, plus he knew exactly what I weighed TO THE POUND.

Remi said to me that he loves me for WHAT I am, not HOW I am, meaning that he fell in love with my personality, character, my soul first and foremost. I really do appreciate the fact that he loves me for ME, not how I look. :)

Well...let's see, i could put down alot of things but for now just one

When we were up on top of a mountain, I said, "Honey, look how beautiful it is here!" and he turned to me and looked me in the eyes and said, "Yes, it IS but now it is even MORE beautiful because of your presence."

*He's smooth for 19, lol* But honestly, he meant every word of it. I do love him so!

melt melt melt...

his new *location* reads:
Kerri's eyes - limpid pools of green (w/touch of orange)


:D :D :D

Well this isnt real romantic, but it meant a lot to me:

I was really stressed out the other day and I was complaining to Rick. He knows what it is like because he raised 4 kids by himself.... he said "Oh honey if I were there you could give me a honey-do list and I would just go to work." That just helped me relax. He also says encouraging things to me like it will get better, you are a great mom....and gives me advice on my 15-year-old son that works every time!!

I had a mamogram last week and H told me to have these implants removed so the readings would have more accuracy. That was sweet.
what kind of implants are you referring to? just curious. Radiation implants or silicone implants?

I'm glad this thread was bumped back up. So good to know that our guys are saying nice things to us.

i hear saline is used more than silicone nowadays. Any health advantages to saline over silicone?

Nice song! I need to expand my horizons.

Ok. I have a really hard time the past few days. Because Remi's brother was in an accident 3 weeks ago, Remi and I have hardly gotten to talk. He surprised me last night and came online and spent some time with me so I could discuss how I am feeling. Because we haven't talked much, I was starting to let all kinds of "stinking thinking" get into my head. It's so easy to let little doubts and fears creep in when you don't get to talk often enough.

So, last night was a wonderful conversation with lots of positive reinforcement from Remi that I was needing. I was thinking of that thread about how men should not have to read a woman's mind. So, I told Remi that what would make me feel better would be to hear something positive about myself.

He noticed on cam that I had been crying. He hates to see me cry. So, when he said this, I couldn't help but laugh.

He said, "well..when u r not crying ...u r the most wonderful and beautiful woman ..and funny."

Of course I loved being told I am wonderful and beautiful. But, the part I liked the best is that he thinks I am funny! People who know me really well know this side of me. It's a side I don't let alot of people know about. So, when I realized that Remi recognizes I am funny, that really told me that he knows me better than most. I've never had a man tell me I am funny before. So, to get this compliment from one of the funniest men I have ever known, makes me feel so good. :D

Time to bump this one up again. :)

Dave tellls me on a daily basis that I'm the "most wonderful woman in the world." *sigh* It's usually said while holding me close and gazing deep into my eyes. He calls me his Angel and means it. And when he says it, I believe it...that's the best part.

Last night I accidentally threw away a bag I thought was trash, but it turned out to have his check book, cell phone and my prescription in it. He, of course, had already taken out the trash, so out to the dumpster we went. He almost had to climb in to retrieve it and the dumpster stank like rotten meat.

I was mortified that I had made such a stupid mistake and than he'd had to hang half way into a reeking dumpster. He just laughed at me and said I shouldn't worry, because we'd made another memory. :confused: He wants to remember dumpster diving as a funny memory...?? How can I NOT love him?

This morning he is making buckwheat pancakes for us and I was trying to share a folder with his computer. Somehow all the contents of the folder vanished and I was sitting here in tears, hours of work lost. He came in and found the files. Somehow a copy of the folder had gone into another, unrelated folder while leaving the original folder blank. We didn't know how it happened, but he came in like a white knight and saved his damsel in distress. I told him that he's my hero.

Serendipity, Dave has always sent me a rose made like this: @-->-->--- it's become our symbol and he gave me a tiny golden rose on a chain that I have never taken off since it was put on. We also try to have roses in the house when possible and used them as our theme for our wedding. Little things like email flowers can end up meaning a lot, can't they?

So, does anyone else have nice things to share?

Peace,
Jane

Almost forgot, Whiterose how is Remi's brother doing?

And, ya gotta stop making crap up when you don't hear from him for a while. Why, oh why, is it so hard to believe that we are loved and that we are loveable????

You are wonderful because Remi says you are wonderful. And you are funny. Funny is good, excellent even, because very little is better than making someone you love laugh.

Peace,
Jane

adam sences when i need reassurance, when i get down on myself, he does not pick about the problem to help me solve it, instead he always tells me how smart i am or how lucky my clients are to have me, or if i feel insecure about my appearance he tells me that i am beautiful, and if i still moan and groan, he gets this ever so slightly serious voice and says "RINA, I love you and I want you, you are beautiful, now will you please stop."

the funny thing is i do, and i get busy with our day to day life....

he reminds me that every hurdle i have faced or we have faced as a couple we have gotten thru, i actually didnt realize that but he is right, we just seem to find a way. adam is a big tub of love that i run into, get all the love that i need and then i am off to conquer the world for another day.

(blush) my "new friend" calls me on my cell phone, but just lets it ring one time, to let me know that he is thinking of me. Since he lives in Eastern Europe, I love waking up to see a "missed call". AND to his credit, this was even HIS idea! :D

How sweet Linda. :p

Jane: thanks for asking about Remi's brother. He had fallen into what Remi calls a sewer hole, but I really believe it was a manhole. He said that the cover had been stolen, which is what makes me think it was a manhole. He had a wound in his back where he was impaled on a broken pipe, but apparently that is now healing. However, he also sustained a head injury. I'm not sure yet what affect it has had on him. But, I sure would appreciate it if everyone would keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

I am actually doing much better about not letting the stinking thinking get to me. I had a huge adjustment in April going from having a real life relationship to one that exists primarily online again. But, things are better now, especially since I am beginning the application process to bring him here. Thank you for thinking of me and for encouraging me along. :)

I'm glad to see this thread bumped up again. We all need to take note of the sweet things our partners say and do.

As for Remi, no new "sweet nothings" to report, but he has been telling me he loves me much more than normal. I think he misses me alot. I know I miss him.

but first of all, Katrina, gosh, what a freak accident. I haven't had the time lately to look at the threads much as school is shutting down and this has bee "heck" weekend and week. But I hope that doctors will be able to fix him up and he will heal fine... prayers have been said.

Now... onto this.... I just got a text message on my cell from my "friend" in Serbia! He had told me that he had sent one awhile back, but I never got anything (it can take up to 72 hours... weird and not too cool for us impatient Americans!). But, this one read: Test 3 Kiss! GOSH he apparently does not give up easily! I am like in amazement and it made MY night.... hmmm.... I may just give everyone an A!!!! NOT! :D

Early on sunday morning, at 3 am, while I was getting ready for our trip to the airport, Jason went to the bathroom , tied his beard with a rubber band (is this the right word?) and cut if off for me.

I know how much he loved his beard (must be some heavy metal thing), and it really meant a lot that he wanted me to have a part of him.

Awwww...

Yes, what a guy indeed. :) Having a daughter myself, THAT brought tears to my eyes. That is pretty much what Jimmy has said to me in relation to my daughter as well, and it's all I needed to hear.

I smell a voodoo doll! Jason, be good! ;)

While I was at work on Maria's last day here, she spent all day writing little notes that she hid all around my apartment. Every one of them has a little something to do with the place I find them in. I have only found five so far, and have been told that there are many more!

That is, quite simply, the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me.

He knows I love Oreos and that I don't get them here in Luxembourg.

One day he arrived home with a box of Oreos just for me...

I can't describe the feeling of her hands all over my stomach and chest as I drove her around on my motorcycle. I found myself making excuses to take longer rides...

When we were riding his motorcycle and it would get a bit cold, he would warm my feet and legs with his hands during the ride (one hand at a time!).

He also often checked my hands to see if they were cold, and he never said anything, but I knew what he was doing.

When we were walking around Boston (or anywhere else, for that matter), she would constantly tell me that I am the hottest man she has seen.

And he is! I have never had such a hot, handsome, strong man in my life! I am keeping you, Mister!

He changed his attitude towards things he didn't pay much attention before. Since he knows I am catholic (not very cool among heavy metal guys...) I noticed that he has little, almost unnoticed reactions when people around us make jokes about priests.

I am sure I am the only one noticing things like a little body twist, a feeling that he's suddenly not comfortable, even with the slightest idea that I might be hurt.

But I notice it and that's what matters. Thank you, baby!

And I do think it was wonderful that a nice, innocent Catholic girl would go with me to a Machine Head concert. Even though she claims I only listen because it's cool. :p

I can't believe someone really likes it... but it was nice observing those crazy people banging their heads and bumping into each other...

Another sweet nothing:

He often washes my hair. I love when he does that!

wow. I think I am going to have to sit back and be jealous for a bit... :p

I have a very physical job...every day when I got home from work, she would lay my head in her lap while I rested in anticipation for the amazing nights we had planned.

We interrupt this thread for a whine from Savannah.....

Awww! You guys are making me realize what I'm missing!:(

...... we now return you to more Sweet Nothings.

Savannah, we'll get to you, just wait! We are having our wine and then we'll move to SexSpea.

He wrote a poem and a song to me. In his song he mixed some Latin/Spanish sounds, all about me and my origins.

He would wake up at 4 am to be able to talk ;) to me every morning before going to work. I knew how tired he was sometimes, but he would still wake up and have those magical moments with me.

I wake up everyday missing his presence close to me.

My 18-year-old son totaled Jeremy's 2002 car on May 14 (my son's 18th birthday! He didn't get injured). We had just paid the car off! Jeremy said, "You have been so tired lately. Instead of buying another car, I'm going to use all of the money and take you on a vacation where I can totally pamper you for 10 days. You are going to be pampered like you've never been pampered before." He's incredible.

Melodee, that is NOT a sweet nothing....THAT is definitely a sweet SOMETHING!!! AND the fact that he did not get angry makes it even moreso!

And love that new avatar!! You two look GREAT!!!!

Thanks Linda. I'm sending you a pm - check your messages.

Just remembered another sweet nothing that Remi said to me some time back...

I asked him if he was sure that he wanted to be with me all the remaining days of my life.

He said, "No, not YOUR life. I want to be with you all the remaining days of MY life." :p

I can't find the original thread for this and I don't really have time, so, I'm just kickstarting it up again this way. . .SWEET NOTHINGS> > > > >>


I just got THE sweetest fax from my sweetheart. Those who know me well know that the past couple of weeks have been atrocious with work, the judge is out of town and all, and I've been this snarling pms woman 90% of the time.

Knowing that I've had a rough couple of weeks, he pm'd me and told me to go check the fax machine. There I find a fax with the outline of his hand and the words. . . Whenever the stress is too much, take my hand and you can have me and be with me until we can be together all the time.

Needless to say, it made me cry. . .:)

That is so sweet, Molly!:)

Robin used to say some really romantic things. Here we are, five years later, and I think the most romantic thing I can recall recently, is him saying, "You're not as much of a pain in the a$$ as you used to be!":D

Hee hee hee, but seriously, I was doing something last night, and he was laying in bed, and he said, "Curl up with me?" not in a asking voice, but a PLEADING voice, like he really, really needed me to curl up with him. I happily complied, and he just let out this contented sigh and held me close. It's so nice to be needed!:)

Hope you don't mind Molly and Polly (hey, that rhymes), but I found the old Sweet Nothings thread and merged your posts into it.

he said he would sit with me while i read my recently deceased mothers letters, and help me bury my recently (but not as recently) deceased fathers ashes/urn

We were talking tonight about a party that he attended last night. It was his friend's birthday party. His friend's father owns a nightclub. In fact, Remi used to be the DJ there. He ended up DJ'ing for his friend while there. This is done at a computer. I asked him tonight to tell me about the party. Here's our conversation:

Katrina: so, you didn't find some young woman that can make you forget all about me?

Remi: lol

Remi: no

Katrina: I hope that never happens.

Remi: well in fact ....

Remi: that computer had an wallpaper with angelina jolie ........

Remi: so ..........for a second i decided to leave u and go to
angelina jolie ......

Katrina: lol

Remi: but i realised that even u don`t look as her ...u r more beautiful then her

Remi: so ..to hell with miss Croft

Remi: i love u

Remi: and because of that i`ve broke up with angelina jolie


ROFL!!! How do you like that??? I'm more beautiful than Angelina Jolie! LOL

Hmm...this is such a sweet thread....

I read everything, then realized that I can't share the sweet nothings that my bf says to me....

What a strange feeling for me......I've never been the "private" type, yet somehow, sharing all the sweet things he says to me feels so wrong....as if sharing them with others would lessen their meaning.....

What I can say is that he tells me he loves me several times everyday. When we began our relationship four years ago, I reminded myself that eventually his intensity with the "I love you's" would die off.....but so far, they haven't.....He's incredible.

(Where's the mushy "i'm in love" emoticon?)

lol i was reading this thread while on phone with Lewis.....convo goes like this:

Me: aww this is the best thread, say something sweet to me.

Lewis: ummm , i love you?

Me: well ok but try harder?

Lewis: ummm you're the best baby?

Me: lol, kk babe, thanks for trying. lol damn i love you

Lewis: oh ok....hu? what are you doing???


i could just SQUISH him he's so cute !!!
couldn't be no cuter if he had a big red bow on top of his head and nothing else........well, let's test that theory.

LOL! I know what you mean (pointing at my guy in my avatar).

I have found that the sweetest things that Remi said to me were very spontaneous and spur of the moment.

I understand how Teena feels about wanting to keep them private. I guess for me, I post them for a couple of reasons.

1. Remi and I have so much distance between us and we don't have the ability to communicate every day. So, when he says something sweet to me, I like to write it down so that I can read it over and over as a reminder of the wonderful future we have in store for us once we finally gets his visa to move here.

2. I am just so darned proud of him. He has a keen ability to say just the right thing at the right time. I am very blessed that he came into my life. And, he's so quite I could squish him, too. :D

What a wonderful thread. So much love.
