    Now's your chance to big up your OH. What are the little things they do that make you feel loved and appreciated?

    I've been single for a while now but I miss the way my ex would randomly buy me clothes. She always got the size right and always bought things I loved wearing.

    My missus belches and farts with abandon. It does make me smile.

    Apart from that she does very little of use.

    My other half left me a few years ago. She was always thoughtful like that.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Makes me a cup of tea every morning. (And makes the nicest cuppa too)

    Randomly comes home with my favourite magazines; about ten of them!

    Often comes home with chocolate or flowers.

    Always picks up the latest Now CD, which he knows I love, without it being a birthday/Christmas pressie.

    He is really great when I'm sick, too, and will fuss over me like a mother hen.

    He's great and I love him very much and I don't care if that makes me sound corny. I'd be lost without him and I think it's nice that he cares that much about me.

    I see so many people in unhappy relationships and it makes me thankful for what I have.

    She puts out





































    The rubbish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,059 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    Well until OH had a broken foot four weeks ago, all the vacuuming, all the weeding on the driveway and out the back, all the mopping of floors was done.

    I now have to do it MYSELF.

    OMG.

    Have a lovely guy who has looked after the back garden for years, so no kudos there!

    But I do lots of things too. TBF.

    1. Nothing.












    Only messing, he gives a great auld back rub. Sounds dirty but it's not.

    Things I haven't the heart to do , and I have done the same for my o.h. Also gives me a headache and keeps me awake with snoring and teeth grinding .

    Amongst other things he fills the nespresso water filter for me every morning and puts a pod in the machine ready to go.

    He'd go to the ends of the earth for me and our girls, he's a fantastic father and husband and to be honest I really count myself so lucky to have him (even if I'm 100% positive I wreck his head half the time, he very very rarely tells me I do).


  • Posts: 31,118 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    She's just had back surgery, so not much right now.
    I'm doing it all at the moment, it's times like this that you really appreciate what they do the rest of the time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 123 ✭✭anais


    Posts horrible pics of his manhood; takes videos of pleasuring himself, lives out of his overnight bag while I deal with 3 smallies.
    A gem really

    Of pride to be with me :D

    Forever alone :(

    It's still early days but he's been wonderful. He's sent me flowers, brought me medicine and treats when I was ill, double checks my shoelaces (don't ask) before we go for a run, has learned to make the perfect cup of tea, shows up at work with my favourite sandwiches, sends me just enough texts to let me know he's thinking of me, but not enough to smother me, didn't laugh when I walked into a pole even though he wanted to, takes a big interest in my job, tells me things he likes about me, worries about me travelling, made a big effort to get along with my cousin/best friend to the extent that they're now friends independently of me, and always texts to see if I need anything picked up before he comes over, and is a giver of exceptional cuddles.

    1. Why are you with him then?

    2. What is a smallie?

    Im lucky I have a good husband. He doesn't take pictures of his lad anyway so that's a plus :D

    He's great at chopping timber, doing manly stuff like opening jars. He makes me decent coffee too and does great shoulder massages.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 492 ✭✭celligraphy


    He gets up every morning with my daughter so I can have a little lie in , doesn't sound like much but if you have children you would understand lol

  • Posts: 26,052 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Makes a change having the man making the sandwiches :pac: , he sounds like a nice chap though if a little obsessive maybe?????

    The sandwiches are bought, and no, he's not obsessive. We'd been friends a long time before we got together.

    Thanks.

    Google said it was Bajan for small woman. Thought the mickey photographer was a pimp too ;)

    I have three kids and if it was every morning it would wear thin if I was the one getting up.

    At some stage "GET UP TA FCUK" would be roared in the house.

    I'd assumed from your post that you'd just met him, turns out it's a whole different ball game then. Best of luck if he makes you happy Candie and no offence meant. ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,646 ✭✭✭✭qo2cj1dsne8y4k


    He puts my pjs on the radiator/in the dryer when I'm in the shower. He brings me and picks me up every day from my train. He washes my hair in the shower, and once ended up dying his hands purple from trying to put a colourbomb in my hair.
    He sings songs to me in the mornings when I wake up grumpy. He cuts my toenails because I hate cutting my own toenails. He will patiently sift through a mountain of photos helping me choose stuff to buy online when he has absolutely no interest deep down. If I'm having a horrible dream and can't sleep he'll get up with me if I'm upset. He fixes all my technical things. He'll make a bubble beard for me in the shower. He will drive long distances to get me if I miss my train, I get sick or am sad. He buys me cute little random things he sees that he knows I'd like. He has no shame when it comes to emergency buying knickers/pjs or tampons. And he likes cuddles as much as I do.

    Is letting me live in her room rent-free until I can sort my own accommodation
    Though a sh1te cook, she buys all the food I like so I can cook to my heart's content (for both of us of course)
    Gives me free pints when I visit the pub she works in
    Goes to the shop for me when I'm sick
    Let's me invite friends who are total strangers to her back to her place, with glee
    Always lends me money if I'm ever stuck
    Watches history shows with me even if she finds it really boring, because I love it
    Provided she has enough, let's me smoke from her supply when she's not even around
    Pours me (and herself!) endless glasses of wine

    The list goes on. She's a pretty incredible woman. It's making me reflect and really hope I treat her as good as she treats me... D:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,030 ✭✭✭Lau2976


    He rubs my head when I get headaches and he helps do all my tax stuff. He makes me breakfast every Sunday and tries to eat vegan as much as he can. He doesn't get angry with me when I call him in a panic every second day over something stupid and is trying his hardest to teach me french even though I'm crap


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,226 ✭✭✭boobar


    Much more than I deserve.

    A wonderful woman ..... I honestly don't know what she's doing with me. I will continue with this blissful ignorance until she comes to her senses.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,196 ✭✭✭Shint0


    Oh he does stuff, alright, but there's always some agenda. Always.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 901 ✭✭✭xLisaBx


    My boyfriend is lovely. We are only together about 7 months but we get along pretty well. He gets me drinks, we chat away and watch movies together. He gives me regular back massages (I get pains a lot). He cooks for me. He helps me a lot when I'm sick too, which is great because I get sick quite frequently and it's good to have someone around who can help. He only lives down the road too so it's handy :)

    However, he HATES cuddling and I LOVE cuddling so I don't know how this is going to work out :D We cuddle anyway, and I think he is getting used to it.

    Just made me a grilled cheese sandwich when we came home from town. She's the best.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 338 ✭✭PennyWren


    So many things but it's the little things that matter the most. The things I almost forget to notice after so long. He makes me coffee every morning before work, even the mornings that he doesn't have to be up as soon as my alarm goes off he gets up and makes coffee :) and he actively indulges my period cravings without any judgment, sometimes that means eating a whole big bar of dairy milk without offering to share.
    This is a lovely thread.

    God, basically everything you guys are mentioning ITT are things my mum does for me (bar cuddling obviously:eek:)

    He'll do anything for me, and he has never once complained. (He's one of those awful laid back people who doesn't get bothered by anything.) He's had a tough few years (actually more than a few years!) of constant pain and it doesn't stop him doing things for me when he thinks I need it. I'll do anything for him too, but he's a much better person, much more selfless person than I am and I have no idea why he married me really. (I think it's because I bake things for him.)
