Tell me...

About Love.

How do you know it? How do you show it? Little things? Big things?

Hmmm...

Maybe I'm feeling that "mushy" thing right now that we've talked about in another thread....

Maybe I'm trying to write something that people will respond to...

I have tried to pinpoint when I knew I loved my 'Cuddlebear' (hopefully you all have figured out that he posts here...).
I think we both openly admitted that when we fall, we fall hard. And I fell very hard, and very fast. But who wouldnt? He is pure perfection to me. I think I knew almost right away that we had something very special and that is why I fought so hard to keep him in my life (and I won!!!).

I think I've done some pretty big things to show him that I love him. I actually have a tattoo of a bird he drew for me...afterall, I AM his littlebird, right? Its a very simple design but its so perfect. I know that I want to be with him, I will be with him forever. Hopefully someday there will be a tiny version or two of us running around. Hehehe... I just know he is the one for me. :D

Some of my favorite "small" things to do are help him feel better when he is sick or hurting. I like to give him massages even though I sometimes can't do it for very long. I like to massage his hands, feet and back. The way he says, "Ahhh, mush my toes up !! Uggghhhh, smush my fingers together..." well, I just really like knowing that I am making him feel good. :D

I love to smother him with hugs and kisses.
We write each other little notes saying I love you's and things of the like.

Sometimes when we are sleeping or laying next to each other I will caress him and hold him. I feel like I can't get close enough to him.... I just want to melt and become one shmooshy ball of lovin'.

Sorry that this huge wave of mushiness has taken over, but I needed to get it out somewhere and I am not with my Love right now....hopefully someone out there understands what I'm feeling right now.

So, tell me about your cute love antics or how you got together with your YW/OM........or anything.

Give me something to read!!!! ;)

Love is in the little things. It's the reading between the lines. It's in the not being able to stay mad for more than two hours. It's the basic everyday thoughtfulness that shows I'm on his mind, even if it's just remembering I needed a gallon of milk. Love is saying, "Gee honey, you're a real ******* today," and kissing him and going off to read a book. Love is getting a backrub instead of hot steamy sex. Love is the urge to strangle the other, then realizing they're irreplaceable so you start laughing instead. Love is handing over the remote. It's him always waiting for me even though I'm one of those perpetually late people, even for an hour. And it's also falling asleep in his arms feeling safe and secure and hearing "I love you" whispered in the dark. I'm sure it means different things to everyone, but it's definitely in the little things.
