Recently, I watched an episode of the new TV show, the Goldburgs. Part of it was where the mom and dad got into a fight because she didn't hear him say "I love you" enough. He won her back by showing her a video of all the ways he showed her that he loved her.
This episode really spoke to me. Matt says he loves me all the time. He is always asking "have I told you that I love you today?" (Me: yes) (Matt: okay good. I love you with all my heart)
Sometimes I really need to hear it. But now I want to see it.
I'm going to list all the ways he shows me that he loves me.
Well, maybe not all the ways, the list would be forever long.
How I know my husband loves me, actions only:
-He will wake up with me at 6 AM to go on a walk (or run) with me... Even when he's really tired.
-On those runs, he will run painfully slow, to keep up with me. Yes, I said that right. I run extremely slow.
-He knows that if he says "don't smile", it'll make me smile.
-He can tell when I need a hug. And even if I don't want a hug, he'll do whatever to make it better.
-He will notice when I'm stressing out, having an anxiety attack, or getting upset & will rub the back of my neck to calm me down.
-I fall asleep, pretty much religiously, at 9:00 pm. He will make sure I have a pillow and blanket to be comfortable.
-He pops my toes.
-He lets me pop his toes.
-If I go to bed (instead of falling asleep on the couch) and he isn't even close to being tired, he will still come and lay down with me until I fall asleep.
-When I've had a bad day, he will rub my back.
-We have an agreement. Whoever cooks does not set the table or do dishes. He knows that if I'm not cooking, it's because I've had a hard day... He'll do dishes for me.
Alrighty, there is a list of ways that I know my husband loves me, based on actions.
