Don’t you think the small stuff in your relationship is the BEST?!?!?!!!

I get sooo excited about each stage of my relationship with my partner. Even the bad stuff, because it means we’re learning and growing together (and the bad stuff isn’t that bad).

We have been together for 19 months. We were friends for a year before that. We have been living together for like 16 months.

This evening I was on the toilet doing a number 2. My partner came and started talking to me through the door about his work stuff, knowing full well that I was doing a poop. 😆😆😆😆😆 I know it sounds stupid, but I just loved that he did that because it means we are more and more settled and comfortable in our relationship.

I get so happy about stupid little things in my relationship.

I got excited when he told me stories that I had heard before. I loved knowing that I knew him well enough to know a lot of his stories.

I got excited when I started getting his blackheads because it’s so intimate and I haven’t done that with anyone except family. 😆

I got excited when my partner kissed my dirty foot after I shut the fridge door on it.

I got excited when he rolled his eyes after i hiring myself for the 100th time because I’m so clumsy and it has become our thing.

I got excited when I was drunk and pee’d in front of him for the first time.

I got excited when I sober pee’d in front of him for the first time. 😂

I got excited when he cared for me after I had surgery.

I got excited when he let go and let me plant whatever I wanted in the garden.

I got excited the first time I got cranky with him and still loved him anyway.

I got excited when he drunkenly introduced me to people as his wife.

I got excited when he started saying ‘When we have kids’.

I get so excited about the stupid stuff because it all adds up to create something so special. I get excited about the big stuff too, but I pay extra special attention to the small stuff so it doesn’t get forgotten.
