Valentines Day will be here in a few weeks and our hearts should be on fire when we think of that special person in our life.
What are some of the things that you admire the most about that special person?
What are some of the things that attracted you to them in the beginning?
Are they someone that you feel you will be able to spend your whole life with happily?
What are some of their best qualities and strengths?
:val:
Well... what do I admire most about my boyfriend? His intelligence, curiosity & knowledge of things that I wish I had an interest in, as such knowledge is rather useful. He went through EMT training, and eventually wants to become a firefighter. I think it's a very noble thing to truly want to help people, especially in life or death situations. I think it takes a strong person to want to do that every day. What I admire most about him though is his innocent, caring, goofy, patient & open-minded nature. He accepts me for me and makes me laugh all the time, another thing I love about him. Oh and he's athletic - well, way more than me! lol And lastly, his quiet determination to win me over, even though I was a bit unsure of whether to date him at first. I love that he truly wanted to be my boyfriend, unlike some guys I had met who just wanted 'other things.'
I was initially attracted to his kindheartedness, because the first few times we met I was freaking out or worried during those times at some point. The first time he wanted to meet me alone, I was so freaked that I think I had a panic attack. Yes, we initially met online of all places. He was so sweet about it, too. He understood, and we arranged to meet at a better time and it all worked out. So far, he is one of the kindest men I have ever dated. He is very supportive of me going back to school for my art degree as well (!)
I was also attracted to his sense of humor and how I could totally relate to it because we can both be so random. I didn't have to try to understand his jokes most of the time either! x-) lol That and his online picture was kinda cute, even if he is a little dorky.
As to whether or not I feel like I could happily spend the rest of my life with him, it's kind of early to tell. We've only been seeing each other for 3 months. I think things would be different once he finds another job but so far, so good. We get along just fine. Even though I have gotten irritated with him a couple times, we've had no fights so far. Just open discussions
I have never seen him seriously mad at anyone, not even me when I've made him wait a half hour or more just so we could hang out & watch TV or play Rock Band. x-)
I think I've just described some of his best traits in my ramblings above. I hope I didn't write too much!
