This Is a Wink Directed To You, T

Sometimes, it's easy to get lazy about your relationship.

Sometimes, there's so much going on and you kinda-sorta-definitely expect your spouse to read your mind because they are with you all the time so shouldn't they just know what you are thinking and how you don't want to do that or do this or can't we just go to sleep tonight because I am really tired and how I have too much to do to go on a date right now or how about we order pizza because cooking takes too much time.

Yeah, I do it, too.

But you know what? My husband may or may not just be the best communicator in the history of marriage. He is continually making sure our marriage is on the right track and that the two of us are understanding each other and feeling loved.

Before I met T, I was not the most selfless person out there. I thought I knew what charity, love, and compassion were before I met him. Obviously not. I'm learning that what is important to T should be important to me. I've never had better communication with someone else in my entire life (which in itself is a giant feat for me). T has taught me that my thoughts, ideas, needs, are important and that he wants to hear them; just like I want to hear about every little detail he does.

Everyday I ask myself, "What did I do to deserve such an incredible man?" Today I realized that everyday I should be asking myself,

What do I need to keep doing in order to deserve this incredible man?

I love you, my lover.
