What’s your definition of romantic?
This may be weird but one of my favorite things (that is in no way a romantic gesture) but I just love it and how it makes me feel, is when I hear my husband say “Let me ask Jenny what she thinks” or “Yeah, let me run it by my wife.” or “let me see what Jennifer wants to do”.
He probably doesn’t even realize how much that means to me.
It’s not about control or needing permission. It’s about being considered. It’s the simple reminder that we’re a team. It’s being more than “his wife” it’s being his person. His partner. Not just loved. Wanted.
My other thing would be spontaneity. We don’t do boring around here. We love surprises and sweet gestures and we laugh a LOT. Those are the things that keep the romance going and we’ve never let that passion for each other go out.
I think I got extremely lucky in regards to having a relationship that’s never gotten stale. That’s my best friend. I saw him from the very beginning and my intuition about who he was wasn’t wrong. I’m so thankful God put us together – he knew we needed each other. 🤍
