<p>Contrary to popular belief, love is real!

Food is always the answer.</h2><blockquote> <p>If we have an argument and are both huffing, she will secretly order us our favourite take away meal and leave it in the kitchen. I can&rsquo;t resist opening it and then she will come into me and say &ldquo;oh?&rdquo; And we will both just start laughing and say sorry.-<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/luckycharms_889/">luckycharms_889</a></p> </blockquote><h2>3. Karaoke time.</h2><blockquote> <p>He can never remember the lyrics to any songs. That doesn&#39;t stop him from singing along at the top of his voice. We&#39;re long distance at the moment and he sends me voice memos of him singing along to songs he knows I like, always with the absolutely wrong lyrics. He&#39;s adorable.-<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/AHedgehogNamedSeb/">AHedgehogNamedSeb</a></p> </blockquote><h2>4. Keep calm and carry on.</h2><blockquote> <p>The sound of her voice when she&#39;s yawning or laughing makes me feel calm and relaxed like no other thing can do. She is the medicine to anything that puts me in a bad mood. -<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Iskelmaikel/">Iskelmaikel</a></p> </blockquote><h2>5. Boop.</h2><blockquote> <p>I love watching him watch the things he loves. The way he lights up and laughs is indescribable.</p> <p>I also really love when he randomly touches me. Sometime he&rsquo;ll lean over and pat my head, or gently tug my hair, or bop whatever body part is closest with the remote, and I absolutely love it. And I especially love that he does it often and entirely unprompted. -<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/SmileIntelligent3940/">SmileIntelligent3940</a></p> </blockquote><div className="ad-splitter"></div><h2>6. They picked a good one.</h2><blockquote> <p>He buys me flowers. For no reason other than he loves me. It&rsquo;s random too most of the time but he always buys flowers for my birthday. I am beyond lucky to have such an amazing husband. -<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/coffeeandjesus1986/">coffeeandjesus1986</a></p> </blockquote><h2>7. It never hurts to hear.</h2><blockquote> <p>He randomly says &#39;I love you&#39;. Like we will just be sitting on the couch watching the news, and he&#39;ll say it. I know he means it then. It makes me tingle inside, even after 6 years. -<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Denverleah74/">Denverleah74</a></p> </blockquote><h2>8. Woman with a plan.</h2><blockquote> <p>Her ability to just figure any situation out. Doesn&rsquo;t matter if it&rsquo;s finding new health care, dealing with the bank, fixing something at the house while I&rsquo;m gone, or pretty much just finding a solution to any problem. She&rsquo;s a natural problem solver and the peace of mind that brings me as a partner is amazing. -<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/_Takub_/">_Takub_</a></p> </blockquote><h2>9. The Beatles would approve.</h2><blockquote> <p>He holds my hand and gently squeezes it in a rhythmic kinda way when we&#39;re in crowded spaces so I don&#39;t get overwhelmed and shut down. -<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/digerydonnut/">digerydonnut</a></p> </blockquote><div className="ad-splitter"></div><h2>10.

The cutest comfort animal.</h2><blockquote> <p>In bed, when my boyfriend is almost half-asleep, he&#39;d rub my back when he knows I&#39;m having a hard time sleeping, even without me asking for it. I find it really sweet.-<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/potatocornerbbq/">potatocornerbbq</a></p> </blockquote><h2>12. Hold Me Tight.</h2><blockquote> <p>Whenever they get really excited, they make a little squeal sound and kinda hug me a little tighter (if we&rsquo;re hugging) and watching them get a smile across their face, big or small, makes me really happy too. -<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Underscore_25/">Underscore_25</a></p> </blockquote><div className="ad-splitter"></div><h2>13.
