Is it the little things that count?

Question

Like say, if he remembers to put the toilet seat down?

Or do you prefer getting flowers, gifts, on a regular basis?

How does he/she show you that they really care?

Answer 1

I'm not very superficial or materialistic, though I know many women are. Showing of love to me? He calls me from work just to say I love you and he can't wait to see me. He stops in while I'm at work just to steal a kiss. He picks me hand picked wild flowers while he's out on a walk with the dogs. He looks at me with that adoring sparkle in his eye when he tells a cute story about something I did to his friends. He makes sure that we walk arm in arm through public places together stating "this is my woman and I am proud". We ar fighting 'cause i'm being emotional and he walks up to me wraps me in his arms and lets me cry in to his chest and tells me that he is sorry that i'm going through a tough time and just holds me. YES, it is the small things that count!! Wow, I love my husband!! :D

Answer 2

The little things are the big things in my book. When I have had a hard day and come home to him already have started dinner, or doing the laundry, or cleaning the litter box.....

Or when he stops at the gas station for his smokes and buys me a pack "just in case" while he is there.  It is the little every day things that make me feel loved, special, and cared about.  I wouldn't trade those for all the flowers and chocolates in the world...especially since i am allergic to most flowers and not a fan of chocolate.  

Yes, he does occasionally buy me gifts that are bigger, such as this lounger chair that I have been wanting or a new pair of cowboy boots, but those are rare and unexpected.  That is what makes those things special.  We don't celebrate the "holidays" such as x-mas or Valentine's day.  We don't feel we need a reason to buy the other a gift, whether it be big or small. I would much rather surprise him out of the blue with a new fishing pole or something just because I saw it then to only do it because it is expected.  

Answer 3

Mine pretty much sucks at everything to show that he really cares.  But, the only sweet thing that he still does faithfully when the alarm goes off in the morning he says "good morning my beautiful wife, I love you"

Answer 4

The little things end up being a big thing called love :)

Answer 5

yes. very little counts

Answer 6

I do believe that is true...I think that's very sweet of  MRS COFFEY's husband I wish my bf does that some day. Some things by bf does is e-mail me every now and then at work to say Hi and stuff. One thing I really liked was yesterday he called me in the morning before work and asked me how I felt (I was very sick that night) that really touched me. I would love to receive flowers and stuff from him to say he loves me instead of only when there is a fight. So yes, I do believe little things count, and I do believe that giving back those little things count too....I always try to make little things count:

I sent e-mails of how much I love him

I send him random pics of me while he is at work

On my days of I help clean his house in any way that I can

I do his laundry sometimes even

Random date nights

*little things make a big difference = )
