Last nice thing your SO did/gave to you

NavyBlue143

I sent him a text letting him know I took care of something, and he responded by telling me he really appreciated me doing it. He's not so good with the words, so it meant a lot. 

ShesSoCold

Last week he brought me a vanilla frosty at work because I was stressed and he was driving by. Then the next day he brought me lunch since I was working later than anticipated and starving.

We are moving (eventually), and DH and I will be working in two cities 80 miles apart, so obviously we're going to need to live somewhere in the middle.  He and I have been bickering about the Where, and I keep saying that HIS commute is going to be far worse than mine, so I want to live closer to where he's going to be working, and he keeps pushing back.

A co-worker today said, "Well, that's how much he loves and cares about you, that's he's so worried about the length of your commute."  Made me feel a little weepy.  Here I am thinking he's just being a knuckle-head.

That is so sweet... but he IS being a knucklehead! Speaking as someone who spent 2.5 years in an awful commute, it steals hours of your week away (n my case more than 7 hours of my week, nearly an entire extra work day) and adds so much unnecessary stress. Depending on why the commute is awful (tunnel, big city, something else) I would try to choose a compromise that at least slightly favors him. He is being gallant right now but your relationship will thank you!

I have to brag. I had a fantastically shitty day today and FI said he was going to cook poppy seed chicken casserole for dinner (we take turns cooking throughout the week). Unfortunately, he got drafted for an overtime detail and won't be home until after his shift tomorrow. He ordered pizza and chocolate lava cakes from Dominos to be delivered and sent a text that said "I know you're having a horrible day, and I'm sorry I won't be home to cook your favorite meal, but hopefully you'll enjoy your pizza and lava cakes."

This trumps him bringing my strawberry ice cream last night

Made me ribbon fries last night :-9

He planted rose bushes for me today while I was at work, after coming home from a 48 hour shift.

I think I'll keep him.

My heart is so full right now, I'm so proud of and in love with DH. This seems an appropriate thread to rant a bit because I need an outlet for it somewhere. 

DH has been working so hard on the job application thing, and it sounds like he may have a decent position teaching at a local high school next year if all works out. One teacher who would sit on the final interview board is on vacation right now, but he has met with the principal and another administrator and it has gone really well. So I've got my fingers crossed and praying hard that this last interview sometime next week makes it official and he's got the position. Please keep us in your well-wishes and prayers!

I'm so proud of DH deciding to go for this job -- if you had asked him if he wanted to teach high school a year ago, he would have laughed and flat out said no. As a grad student he really loved teaching college courses, but he especially loved research and writing, and did not envision himself teaching teens (he's okay with kids, but their not his forte). 

When he finished his PhD by defending his dissertation recently, he met with several of the professors from our department who invited him out for celebratory drinks afterwards. His dissertation was really long (500+ pages) and apparently, also really good. But it hasn't yielded him any job prospects at the college level-- humanities in academia is miserable. 7 people have graduated from our program with their doctorate in the past 3 years, and only one has any type of job teaching at a college (not permanent, nor tenure track). His professors have been trying to encourage DH to "hang in there" and just keep publishing articles over the next few years while applying for jobs, or maybe try for a post-doc in Germany. Basically, after that, if DH is lucky, he might be able to get a 1 or 2 year lectureship position teaching somewhere, which would then hopefully lead to him getting another 1 or 2 year associate professorship position somewhere else, and then ideally he might eventually try to land something where he could be put on a tenure track (which is iffy in and of itself, as it is being phased out of many programs). 

It would be another 5- 10 years probably before DH would have a stable, settled career where we would know we could settle down semi-permanently somewhere, and with me still in law school and hoping to build my own career, it would likely mean at least a few years of us having a long distance marriage. While it wasn't anything I would look forward to, I really wanted DH to be able to shoot for the stars in his career dreams, so I have encouraged him to do whatever he feels best, and said I would support that.

So cut back to DH at the bar with his professor. After this professor evidently urged DH to continue pursuing the quest for a professorship, DH explained that while he loved doing research very much, he loved his wife more, and really didn't want to put a strain on our new marriage by being apart. Professor nodded and ended up relating how he had lost a fiancee over his pursuit of his academic job, and that it can be rough on relationships. DH replied that exactly, it wasn't worth it to him. He wants a family and to be there while we build that family. When they parted the professor ended up telling DH he was a lucky person. 

DH has decided to go for the high school job, because at least it is using his degree, and he would be close by. It would greatly minimize my student debts, and it would provide good health insurance for both of us. Once I'm done with law school, DH is thinking he might try to go to the same law school himself since overall he thinks that he'd be more interested in a job that left him to do individual work and apply his research and writing skills a little more. I personally do think he would probably thrive in law school, but I'm really glad that he'll take some time to teach for now, so he can truly discern what is right for him. He tends to get tunnel vision on projects sometimes (which makes him a great worker, but he can miss things on the periphery easily). For example, he's decided he only wants to go back to school if he can get a really good scholarship, so he has been studying the LSAT already over the past month during his free time. He purchased about 80 copies of past exams and has been taking about two a week. He started with a score of 159, and has worked his way up to the 170s now (a perfect score is 180). Yesterday he scored a 177. 

Whatever ends up happening, whether he ends up falling in love with teaching and stays in that (and can maybe even publish some scholarly articles on the side too), or if he does end up going to law school (in which case I think he will get a good score on the LSAT and have a fair chance at a decent scholarship), I'm just really blown away recently not only by how hard this man works, but is doing so for me. I think a lot of people could be really set back and despondent after writing a 500 page book, and then not finding a job in that field. It's certainly not been an easy thing for him, but he's directed his focus and energy to the fact that it's his personal life with me that matters most, not the career itself, and has kept soldiering on with a lot of positivity and love in his heart. I love him so much. 

End rant.

Congratulations to your DH for defending @tigerlily6!  Academic life is terrible on relationships even in the best circumstances. And not pursuing that route after finishing is a really tough decision to make. I'm glad the faculty member he spoke with was supportive because so many would not be. You guys sound lucky to have each other and be supportive of each other's goals.

FI works out of town on a 15 days out, 6 days home shift. Last time he was home happened to be when I had planned a trip back to my home province for a memorial service for my Grandma, so I only got to see him for a few hours before I left. I came home to a spotless house, and he had brought my terrarium to the flower store before he left and had them deliver it to my work my first day back. He's definitely a flower man!

H is not a great gift giver in general but a few months back he bought me VIP concert tickets to an artist I love and he hates. The concert was this past weekend on his actual birthday and he went with me and was a great sport about it.

I am suffering from a very painful toe injury which inhibits my ability to walk normally.. FI offered to take over my usual morning dog walk.

Has hell frozen over?  He never offers to walk the dog. I guess I'll take it as an act of good will!

drglitter

He left this morning before I woke up for his 2nd 48 hour shift this week. I woke up to these:

(Please ignore the fancy drug rep post-its - I promise I don't work for Zetia)

On the back door where I let the dogs out:




On the dog food container:



On my car window:



Apparently my path in the morning is pretty predictable.

P.S. I love this thread!

My sweetie is the king of the small-but-meaningful gesture.  Last night when we were on our way to bed I was upstairs a couple of minutes before he was.  I realized I had a snag in my cuticle so I texted him asking if he would grab the manicure scissors off the hall table as he walked past.  He didn't see the text until he was already upstairs, and I told him to forget about it and I would just wait for the morning.  Or I could have gone myself--I only asked him because he was walking right past where they were.  Well, he insisted on running and getting them for me anyway.  It's a tiny little thing, but he does that kind of stuff all the time and it makes me feel so loved.

My DH just gave me a birthday present.  It's a purple Hydro Flask and insulated sports cap.

Now that is really sweet however, in @kimmiinthemitten 's thread last friday I said we have more water bottles than we know what to do with.  We could give an entire football team (not just starters, like the whole damn team) a water bottle if we wanted.    

I'm feel like such a bitch for being like "umm, thanks?" 

It's even worse because he was so excited he felt the need to give it to me 2+ weeks before my actual birthday.

DrillSergeantCat

My FI cleaned the kitty litter box before he went to work this morning because I'm not supposed to and he got up with the baby 3 of the 4 times he woke up because he said my job now is to rest and cook the new one.

ha that is the story of us too!

We just adopted a new dog and he has been stealth pooping in the house. DH has been cleaning it up without complaint. I actually feel bad about it but has been a good sport.

He has also been doing the dishes as I have some sort of skin infection on my hand and getting them wet makes it worse. (I wear gloves when I wash my hair, it's that bad.)

Then there are the million other little things he does that I won't even begin to bore you with. I got incredibly lucky! (It actually sounds like we all did!)

thefanciestbeckler

I love this thread!

DH does NOT have a way with words, but he is always doing sweet, thoughtful things for me. Last night he changed the battery in my car even though he was completely exhausted.

My favorite thing that he does for me is go downstairs and open my garage door for me when I tell him I'm on my way home from work. I have no idea why he does it or what made him think to do it, but it makes me feel so special.

DH is the opposite. I'm down to like 1 water bottle that has all the parts (meaning lid!) because he keeps losing them. Or more specifically the lids. I get so frustrated because I'll go to fill one in the morning and nada. It wouldn't be so bad except I work in this old worn-down building with questionable pipes so I can't just drink out of the sink here. So I am used to bringing like two bottles to work to have.

Now he's mocking me for asking why we can't have anything nice.

My partner took me out for waffles before work this morning!  A new place opened up by us just a few days ago and he suggested we go give it a try for our anniversary.  Today is 4 years of being a couple and exactly one year until the wedding.  (Don't hate on me for the cutesy date--it's only because it's a Saturday anyway and we figured we might as well go with that instead of some other random date.)

I'd share mine but frankly there are too many to list. My husband is adorable, I'll just leave it at that.  

drunkenwitch

I was having a really bad day and just feeling sad and anxious for various personal reasons. He came home with flowers and a bag full of gluten free treats.

decembergrl2014

My stomach was really bothering me last night. On his way home from work H picked up some Tums. I didn't have to ask! He knows Tums always help me to feel better. 

thestaircase

Love this thread, I love positive thread topics! I read all the replies, hope to see more comments/replies.

My husband do alot of things; he been doing it and still doing it, it nothing new. He still do what he do. He do it before, he still do it now. He hasn't change. I guess he is stubborn guy, lol
He do alot of things; I dunno if count as nice things, or perhaps he just flat out corny, lol

Eversince I married him. All I have to do is cook him dinner (he loves eat Chinese food), and help wash dishes. And be his wife. (All he ask me for is cook him homemade food so he have food to eat when he comes home from work. And ask me to be his wife).
After dinner he the one that clean the kitchen; after done clean the kitchen he help with the dishes too.
He do laundry. He do cleaning around the house, do maintenance. He do all the vacuum, mopping, sweeping, take out the trash, housework things he do.
He the one that scrub and clean the toilet bowl. Never once he let me clean the toielt or clean the bathroom. He specificly said things like clean scrub the toilet, cleaning toilet/bathroom it that is the husband job, he wants to be the one that do it.
Never once I have to clean the toilet/bathroom, he do it all. Heck, even buy toilet paper is he bought.

ugh.. I'm not a neat person, but my husband is. He just very neat. For example: After dinner we eat dinner; my husband clean the kitchen, and I wash dishes.
He very neat. He cleans and wipes all the cooking oil splatters and stains. He make sure the kitchen appliances, stoves ovens are spotless.
When he done clean the kitchen; he join help me with the dishes, he finished it up for me.
..and he neat again; after he done finished the dishes, he wipes dry all the water spots that was left on the kitchen countertop from washing dishes. (he's a clean-freak and a neat-freak, lol).

------ He won't let me do laundry, in our house he is the one that do laundry. He said he wants to be the one that do laundry; do my laundry and his laundry together.  I let him have it 'his' ways, it not like bully me or anything.. And it sure not worth it an arguement over something like this.

Back 2 years ago when we began started live together; sometimes I help do his laundry (I tried to be a good GF cater him, lol). But I have own my habits of doing laundry--the way I do laundry is I just throw everything in the washer/dryer, and throw everything mix together in the baskets when done. That just how I myself do laundry.

But him? He very neat, a neat-freak I guess.. I dunno, but then he started to take over doing laundry (do mine and his laundry together); and he been doing the laundry job eversince.
We got married 18 months ago, and he still the one that do laundry.. He said he 'wants' to do our laundry; not just his only but do mine and his together.

He said he doesn't want to see his 'wife' carry heavy laundry, and said doing laundry is his job--the husband job. He a neat person, so perhaps he wants laundry done 'his' way?
I'm only 4'11" short height, perhaps he thinks I'm too short and not want me to carry heavy laundry? lol.. I dunno
He make the bed, washing bed sheets comforters blankets. He wash our clothes--he do laundry loads, washing and drying. And he sort and fold the clean clothes put it in the baskets, and carry it to the bedroom for me.

He so neat.. He sort our laundry. White color, dark color. Light-weight clothes like my blouse, my shirt. Heavy-weight clothes like jeans jacket. Basically he do my laundry for me. He do both my laundry and his laundry together.
When done washing drying. He still sort them when he fold the clean clothes into the baskets. Shirt, jeans, pants, sweaters, jackets, my blouse, my bra, my underwear, my bra, my underwear, etc.. He sort all our clothes and fold neatly into the baskets. Heck, my bra and underwear he still sort and fold.
When laundry all done, he carry the baskets to the bedroom for me.. He said he just wants his 'wife' to help put clothes in the drawers, hang it up in the closet, and help iron some clothes if needed.

When it laundry days, he always make sure he have laundry done for me before he go to work.. Laundry is all he do--from do to finish. He won't let me carry heavy laundry, he always carry the clean laundry baskets to the bedroom for me.

Yup, he do laundry, and that just how he prefers to do it.. I let him have it 'his' ways so he can be happy. It sure not worth it an argument over who do laundry.

I do ask him how can I help? He said if I want to help--cook him something do eat, so when laundry done we eat together. So he do laundry and I cook, lol

I do cook for him everyday though.. He work long hours, so I said let me take over the cooking job.
We always make the effort to eat together. We go to sleep and wake up at the same time. We boring and very routine. We like an old couple, lol

------ He always carry everything for me. He doesn't let me carried a bag of grocery, or carried laundry. He just won't let me carried anything heavy, at all.
Everything on the kitchen shelves, he purposely put it all within my petite height reach.
He doesn't want to see me climb on a tall chair to change the dead lightbulb on top of the ceiling, he thinks I'm gonna fall.. He said If the ceiling lightbulb dead when he not home, use the table Lamp instead; and wait he get home from work, and he'll change it for me.
He make it clear he doesn't want to see his 'wife' climb on tall chair--to change the light bulb on top of the ceiling, or for whatever reason.

He always been protective like this, from acquaintance to friends to dating to married; he always help me carried my supermarket bags, carried my laundry, help fix my car, help me change the lightbulb, etc..
He said he wants to be the one that carry my grocery bags, be the one that change the lightbulb for me.
He corny; he put a table lamp in the living room, and put a table lamp in each of the bedroom in our apartment.. We live in a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom apartment; we sleep in the master bedroom, the other bedroom it just an extra bedroom--there no need for him to put a table lamp in there too, Lol

I'm 4'11" petite short height girl, curvy body type. I'm not tall, not thin at all. I'm chubby; I always have been the plump and rounded body type girl.
But I'm 4 feet 11 inches (I'm not even 5 feet), perhaps he thinks I'm too petite height? I dunno why he always over-protective of me, it must be my short height right? right? lol

------ I love love the Denim jeans at Express in the mall. But the price is pricey it $85 a pair, (it probably not alot to others; but to a girl like me who work minimum wage jobs all my life, $85 for a pair of jeans is pricey).
Last time we went to the mall, he generously bought me five pairs of Demin jeans at Express, (I only want one pair but he bought me five). I guess he knows how much I love those jeans, so he bought me 5 pairs.

Everytime whenever we go shopping. He said buy clothes buy shoe, buy whatever I like; and he just pay.. He said he wants 'me' to chose. He thinks it best that I chose. Because if he chose, he doesn't know if I like the style or if I like the color. So he said I grab whatever I want, and he pays.
He knows I'm frugal, I guess he knows if he doesn't buy it for me I won't buy it for myself.. I'm grateful that he is generous, but I don't want to go to the mall with him anymore. I know he generous with his money but still, I don't like to see him spend money like that. He work hard for his paychecks, it doesn't fall down from the sky.

Well, three weeks ago I agree to let him tak me to the mall; he was able to get me to go to the mall, lol
I saw a pair of shoe I really like but it pricey. I said when it go 'On sale' price I will buy it. He said No, he said he buy it for me regular price.
He end up bought me 5 pairs of shoes. Well, to be exact: it was 2 pairs of shoes, 1 pair of ankle boots, 1 pair of high heels and 1 pair of sandals.
It me that choose all the 5 pairs, he let me freely chose it because he doesn't know what style I like, or whether if the shoe is comfy when I wear it or not. So he lets me chose, and he just pays.
He really generous.

I use this Foam cleanser face wash, it cost $55 a tube--it a Japan brand and it come in a small size tube, (I thought it pricey consider the tube size; but it a must buy item, no way I'm using a different brand).
Everytime my husband see my facewash almost run out, he always bought 2 new tubes for me. I get endless facewash supply from him, lol
A month ago, he saw I only have 1/3 of the tube left, so he bought 2 new ones for me.

I am very frugal, I always buy things on sale price and on Clearance price. But he said No. He said he make enough money to buy me things regular price. So let him buy it for me.
I told him it waste of money, but he said it not because he bought it for me--his 'wife'. He doesn't think it waste of money when what he bought is bought for his 'wife'.

------ He make the best potato salad, and stuffing. It something in the taste of his food that it taste sooo good, (I ate countless of potato salad and stuffing. And none can match up to the taste of his).
He very nice to me. Last time while eating dinner, I told him suddenly I have craving for his potato salad--it was just a random sentence I said while eating on the dinner table.. Because of this one sentence I said; after he finished his plate of dinner, he went straight to the kitchen and make the potato salad for me.
He didn't even hesitate for a second, after he finished is plate of Chinese food, he went straight to the kitchen and make the potato salad I said I was craving for.

He said he make it anytime for me. He said if I like to eat the food he make, he will make it everyday for me.

He make the best BBQ Beef Brisket (southern style), he make it the best!
There times when I have craving for his BBQ Beef Brisket, lol.. But I know Beef brisket it not the same as potato salad, it take hours and hours to cook for the beef to tender. So if I can't shut down my craving and 'must' eat it, I wait till the weekend when he have half a day off from work then ask if he can make it for me, he never say No.

He work 12 hours a day just so I can live a comfy life without have to worried about money.
I can't be unreasonable. So when I want to eat his Beef brisket, I wait till the weekend when he work less hours, and he will make it for me. He never hesitate. He said he very happy that his wife likes to eat the food he make.

------ Well, this is an embarrassing one, lol
My husband he likes to kiss my butt cheek whenever we in bed together. He kiss it everyday.. Naked or clothed, underwear or short on, he still likes to kiss it. He do it every chance he gets, lol
I have the bad habit of sleeping on my stomach. And I lay in bed on my stomach sometimes playing on my laptop/phone. Or just lay in bed on my stomach.. Whenever he see me lay on my stomach, he would kiss my butt cheek. Or simply as when he walk in the bedroom and see me laying flat on my stomach.
To me it just sooo awkward! I told him it embarrassing. But he said he have nothing to be embarrassed about that he kiss his "wife" butt cheek, that his reasoning.

We got married 18 months ago, and he still do what he do.
He still give me the reasoning that he have nothing to be embarrassed about that he kiss his 'wife' butt cheek.. I just dunno how to response back to him when he give a reasoning like that.

He very respectful. He doesn't bite, doesn't slap, doesn't gropes, doesn't spank my butt, not even a light spank.
He just simply put his lips on my butt cheek and kiss it, a gentle slow kiss type.
...when I get dress, sometimes I look at my butt in the mirror and I keep wondering why he likes to kiss it? Is there something wrong with my butt? lol

It random kisses, he do it randomly. When he around don't let him see my butt, or else I know exactly what he gonna do, lol
ugh.. at our age we not young anymore; I'm 31 and he 30, it kindda embarrassing.
But I know this is his way of show affection. So I do try to adapt to "his" way of affection, I let him do it.. I giggles. I giggles and sometimes give him a hug. He was sooo happy that I enjoy it and that I appreciate his kiss.

------ In the cold winter time; my hands and feet get freezing, like very very cold.. He know this, so he rubs my feet and hands; when we in bed-he always rubs my hands and rubs my feet.
We did tried to turn on heater; but when the heater stays on, after a while I get bleeding nose.. He knows this so he doesn't want to leave the heater on, I guess because he doesn't want to see my nose bleeds. He keeps rubs my hands and rubs my feet to helps keep it stay warm.

When my hands and feet get cold again, he rubs my hands and feet again. He said he doesn't want to leave the heater on long, because he knows the heater gives me nosebleed.
ugh.. he kiss the top of my foot too, my foot dorsal. And last winter he bought me those really soft fluffy slippers so I can wear walking around on the carpet at home, in the winter time my feet get cold even walking on the carpet.. And he bought me those thick warm socks to wear in bed when sleep.

------ I have a habit of leave random things all over the bedroom carpet, usually like 5-6 things laying on the bedroom carpet.
My husband knows this, so when he walk in the bedroom, he walk in carefully. (I guess she doesn't want to accidently step on it). And he always pick the stuff up and put it back into place for me.. Never once he criticize me, he just quietly pick it all up and put it back in place for me.
I have try to not leave stuff all over the carpet anymore. It getting better, but habits died hard. ugh.. like right now I have a box of tissue on the carpet floor, and my phone charger.

Never once he said anything about my habits. But I know he is a neat-freak and a clean-freak.. I told him I'm going to try to not leave things on the carpet anymore. He said I'm silly, he said don't sweat about it, he doesn't mind pick it all up for me. He said I leave things on the carpet, he will pick it up. He doesn't see what is the problem?

------He very protective of me.
I can be quite clumsy, not all the time but sometimes.
Last time I accidently dropped soda cans, and it exploded all over the kitchen.. Being multi-tasking that I am, I try carried
4 Coca-Cola cans in one hand. I dropped all 4 cans, it exploded. It spills, fizz and splashed all over the kitchen floor.
He didn't get mad, he said let him clean it up. He doesn't want me to slip and fall, so he said I go watch TV in the living room, and he clean up the kitchen.

Another example of my clumsy habit.
Last time I dropped a big glass cup in the kitchen. The glass break into many pieces big and small, and the tiny pieces glass shattered all over the kitchen floor.
He didn't get mad, he said he does Not want me to touch the broken glass pieces. Because he worried that the broken glass pieces might cut my finger if I pick it up; so I let him pick it up and clean it all up.
ugh.. the broken glass pieces sure does look sharp, but he use his fingers to pick it up. Since the broken glass pieces shattered all over the kitchen floor, it was a mess. But he won't let me help him, he wants to be the one that pick it up and clean it up.

------ He worries and secure everything from emotionally to financially; everything I have right now is he gives me. Because of him I get to live stable steady and comfy life.
He work 12 hours a day, just so I can have a comfy life, so I can live a comfy life without have to worried about money.
We in in the High cost of living state California; everything here is freaking expensive.
Here every household there got to be one person who work their butt off just so their wife and kids can have a comfy life.. But I miss my husband, I wish he didn't have to work that longgg hours, but in order to live a comfy life, work longgg hours is just how it is in California.

Eventhough he secure everything already, from emotionally to financially. He pays Rent, he pays All the bills. Everything I have right now is he gives me.
But he still want to see me well taken care of. He gives me money everytime he gets pay.. Everytime he gets pay, he give me money. He put cash money in my hand, he said it mine, my 'spending money'. Spend it on whatever I want, buy whatever I want/need.
But I don't need anything, because he already give me everything. Everything I have right now is he gives me. Pretty clothes and shoe I wear is he bought for me. The fridge is full of meat, too much food in our house, it all he bought. All the things in our house, to all the bills he pays. Everything is he pays.
I don't see why he needs to give me money, but he still do.
I told him I put all the cash money he give me into a saving account, I open a saving account just to put in the cash money he gives me in there only. When we have a baby, we use it for baby expense, or save it for baby-college.

Welp, it getting super long; but yeah that is some examples of the things my corny husband do, lol
He might be a bit corny, lol.. but he is an awesome awesome husband! He loves me in every possible way that he can. I feel blessed to have him as my husband. I have no regrets this lifetime.

I have no regrets. Despite my Chinese parents--especially my mother disown me/completely cut me off after I got married. (My mother pretty much force me to chose between her and my dad, or him. And when I chose him, she disown me).
He come straight from Sierra Leone, West Africa. It a small country in West Africa. His ethnicity is irrelevant, what matter is he treats me really well.. I just don't get it, I don't get why it so hard for my mother to accept him; she disapproved him SOLELY because of his ethnicity. It just so Unfair to him, seeing how unreasonably my mother is to him.
My mother unreasonably disapproved him since day one, she totally rejected him since the beginning.
She said alot of hurtful words, and she disrespect him.. NEVER once my mother care enough to meet him.  She very very unreasonable. She doesn't even care to know his name, let alone his jobs or who he is as a person. NEVER once she care enough to met him. It just so Unfair to him!
(My older brother is the only person in my family that accept my husband). Even till this day my mother still haven't accept my husband nor accept my marriage.

I think we should declare this thread dead. No one will beat 5 paragraphs about kissing butts.

But at least she's being positive (I assume, I didn't read it).

Kissing butts? I didn't read it, so I'm confused and/or concerned.
