What do you love about your OHs?

MadamRed, 6 February, 2015 at 21:09 Posted on Planning 0 31

As we're coming up to Valentine's Day, I thought it might be nice for us all to share some of the things we love about the men or women that we are going to marry. It can be a big thing, or something really small. I'll start:

One of the things I love about OH is how he hugs me when we go to sleep. As I'm drifting off, I have a tendency to get that "falling" thing where my whole body sort of jumps, or have nightmares when I'm half-asleep. When I do, he hugs me tighter and whispers "I've got you". I also love how crazy talented he is with DIY and building stuff.

    His eyes - he has really twinkly eyes, and his voice - it's very sexy Smiley smile I don't love his OCD but other than that I truly do love everything about him and find myself smiling as I watch him sleep - proper soppy Smiley smile x

    Lovely idea for a thread Smiley smile

    Oh, so many things, that's why I married him! I'm feeling under the weather at the moment, so I'll go with the way he cuddles me like he never wants to let go, and makes me feel so safe

    Not sure if this will be too popular but...I think this is a lovely post. I love my OH so much, absoultely adore everything about him. Every day I look forward to seeing him after work, every time he comes near me I want to kiss him and more...I feel so very lucky.

    6 years ago I was planning a wedding to my ex. It felt right, we had been together for years, owned a house together, wanted children. I liked him, it all seems ok. I definately couldn't say the same about him as I said about my OH now. I wish someone had asked me to make sure I was sure! i guess i am just saying if anyone isn't 100 percent sure just have another think....I thought I was sure but I was just young! xxx

    Like others I could write a long list of things I love about my husband but here's a few of the things that I take for granted

    * his amazing blue eyes (and long eyelashes)

    * how he takes me out of my comfort zone

    * how much he makes me laugh whether it be intentionally or just because he's being ridiculous

    * how much he does for me

    I love listening to my OH's voice and love the fact that he really would do anything for me, but when he knows I'm taking the mickey he'll tell me!

    As soon as we met we clicked and he truly is my soulmate and even though I know I take him for granted sometimes I'd be lost without him Smiley smile

    I have chronic health problems and my OH is my carer - the way he looks after me without ever mentioning it or making it seem like a chore is amazing. He understands me and my illness like nobody else & supports me in trying to get better. I set up my own business as a way of trying to find a method of contributing to the bills & finding a meaning to my days and he's always backed me & done more around the house so I can put what little energy I have into my business.

    On a personal level we share the same stupid sense of humour & sstrange view of the world Smiley smile. I guess he's just my soul mate...

    I was first attracted to his amazing bright green eyes, but what I love most is the little things he does, like he works split shifts so he comes home & makes sure the heatings on & the lights are on for when I come home. That and the fact he has my back & supports me matter no what.

    Oh, so many things!

    How much he genuinely cares for and emotionally supports me and his mother & sister.

    How he always come back from time away with silly but sweet gifts for me

    His mad group of friends from childhood

    His love of puns

    How traditional, yet open-minded he is

    How he's supported me through almost 4 yrs of my PhD, taken the brunt of the financial hit for it, and is still encouraging me to finish it and follow my dreams even though it might mean moving to another city and it will impact on his career too.

    His love of travel, which i share

    I could talk about him for hours Smiley smile

    He's unfailingly generous.

    He really loves our two cats, and cares and worries about them just as much as I do.

    He knows me very well and often anticipates what I want without me having to say a word.

    He makes his own music sometimes, and it's really really good Smiley smile

    He's also very generous *ahem* in the bedroom...

    He puts up with me sobbing over adverts or books or anything vaguely emotional.

    He's a genuinely nice person, even though he'd never tell you that himself.

    What a lovely thread Smiley smile

    I love my OH's face, he's so pretty. He opens jars and kills spiders. He's pretty much useless around the house otherwise, but he does buy very good and thoughtful presents to make up for it

    When I met my OH I thought he was a bit effeminate. But now these qualities are probably what I love most about him. He is so thoughtful and kind and emotionally generous. He is always telling me how much he loves me. There is no guessing what he is thinking.

    Like others, I have had a past relationship that I thought was true love, but I always felt on edge and insecure. Looking back, we were not on the same team.

    In this relationship we are very much on the same team. I feel so unbelievably secure. I know my OH loves me for me. He even looks after me when I've had too much to drink and really don't deserve his sympathy!

    Brilliant thread... loved reading all of these.

    Here's mine ...

    I love the way he tilts his head when he's embarrassed.

    I love the way he instinctively knows what to do when I don't.

    I love the way he is so affectionate and caring and will always hold my hand when we are out.

    I love it that he treats me as a lady, open doors etc. and wouldn't dare swear in front of me.

    I love the way he loves me for me and would never try to change me.

    I love the way I feel when he's about and how much I miss him when we are apart.

    I could write lines and lines....

    My OH is a true Yorkshire man, and by that I mean he doesn't have a romantic bone in his body. But, I love the fact that he makes me my dinner every night, and when I'm leaving the stables in the evening I ring him when I'm on my way home and I have a bath ready for when I walk through the door.

    We also have the most rediculous childish sense of humour and are so at ease with one another. He's my best friend

    The fact that he knows me better than I know myself

    he can reach the kitchd window to close it as I'm too short

    but mostly that he made me believe in love when I didn't and makes me feel loved even tho I don't believe I deserve it

    Okay, I have some more:

    He never judges or comments on my eating.

    He loves dogs as much as I do and we can sit together and show each other funny dog photos on instagram, or email links to each other while we're at work.

    I often find it difficult to put into words what it is I love about my OH and I used to worry it meant I didn't really love him, but I know that's not true!

    So here goes;

    1. I love his proper genuine smile. (He doesn a fake one sometimes that is nothing like his real one!)

    2. I love that he cooks for me most nights and does the dishes so that I can go to the gym. Also, that he cooks low fat food for me.

    3. I love that he always look after me when I have a hangover, even though I don't deserve it.

    4. I love the way he treats me like I am special, even when I don't think I am.

    What an awesome thread!

    Mine is that I can tell him anything and he'll support me, be happy for me, console me etc.

    Plus I love the fact he's happy to share his love. It still catches me off guard when he proclaims love at completely random times, makes me go red and all fuzzy inside.

    Also he lets me nick food off his plate (sometimes he doesn't moan when I do this). Means I get to try new stuff, although he's getting very good at ordering food he knows I don't like- I'm sure it is not a coincidence....

    These are just too sweet. Mine are;

    1. He knows when I'm upset (even when I'm trying to hide it) and won't let me go until I feel better

    2. He understands when I get paranoid and worry about nothing. It never bothers him

    3. He is just the absolute cutest guy I've ever seen and handsome too

    4. He's just perfect
