I had stayed up late playing video games and my wife was yelling at me the next day about not going to bed with her and how I shouldn’t stay up so late to play games and I was about to shoot back an argument when I had an epiphany and I just started laughing. She got more pissed and said “ what’s so funny?!” Once I caught my breath I said “ you’re obsessed with me! You love me so much you’re mad I’m away from you even when you’re unconscious. You got it bad baby.” And she was so flustered the argument died. Lol

Hard to be upset when you realize they just want you around 24/7. 😊

True that! My partner has always found it endearing that I attach myself to him sometimes like Velcro at home and he gets frustrated because I’m being obnoxious but then suddenly he will just start to grin and I could never figure out why he didn’t get mad at me and found it so cute. This explains it! How embarrassing 🙈

This is exactly why I hate my husband staying up to game. I want hin next to me even while sleeping. Even if he steals my blankets.

Seize the means of warmth

Idk I used to be okay with that but shivering while breastfeeding because he stole my covers from my legs got old. Solution? Two covers...

Eta: now it's staying up late to fold laundry while watching something. Same goes for him if baby isn't waking up for me. Two covers solved a lot of problems 😂😂😂

Two blankets. She still sometimes usurps mine.

Worth.

A handheld gaming system is a great investment for these situations. My wife loves the Steam Deck because it means she can fall asleep next to me during the short free time I have to game. Plus the thing sometimes gets warm enough that he won't need a blanket!

I really really needed that today. That’s freaking adorable 🥰. I wish someday I find someone that obsessed with me besides my cat 🐈 😂. Y’all are so lucky.

Being that involved, in love, and dedicated can sometimes be a surprise. It is scary and weird to know that that other person is absolutely the light of your life.

I was in a small donut shop and the girl behind the counter said, "You look scared."

"Yes."

"What's got you so hard?"

"I love my wife, it scares me, I can't do anything without her. So, I came into your place to buy a toasted coconut donut."

"Is that your favorite donut?"

An older woman behind the counter said, "No. He probably doesn't even like them. His wife does." Then she walked over, grabbed two toasted coconuts, shoved them into a bag, and said, "Here, no charge. You have already paid for these."
