pubwrite08: My future husband is one of those men that women dream about. He finds humor in everything I do and thinks that I am just the sweetest, most precious thing in the world. ( I know that is funny right?)
One thing he finds funny and actually teases me about is me losing my "warrior" status. I have never had any man do just about everything for me. So when we get to dividing up the task of me relocating. I noticed that my list is very short, and his is super long.
He laughs at me when I say... I can do this, this, or this. "Baby" he says with his deep voice "that is my job." I'll sigh, and say okay. Then he chuckles. And says "Baby I got this, relax."
And actually, he has done a spectacular job of making room for me, he even found me a diabetic center, and we both have been in touch with those folks. So why do I feel the urge to always jump in and help? He does laugh, and says he understands.
MMM....its strange you post this, because I'm in that situation with my partner right now. She's in China and I'm in Australia and its difficult for her to organise how we will live life after she finishes her studies, so she says to me....please will you do it. I was uncomfortable with this at first, being a sharing sort of person, but realised that she really meant it. She's not passive, but she trusts me and I think that is the essence of a good relationship, which the OP illustrates. Also, I'm in a better position to do this than she is and she understands that.
Good luck in your relationship.
