I realized I loved my man over time and all at once. When I really accepted it though and knew he was the one for me, was after I was ranting about a story I was writing then got really embarrassed when I realized so I shut down. He looked at me and said “why’d you stop? I want to know more- it makes you happy”. I felt so loved and listened too, he was never shy in showing that he loved me which was refreshing.

Another time early in the relationship I had started to cry and tried to hide from him. He found me, sat with me, held me and said that he’ll love me through my tears.

I really can’t ask for a more supportive man
