Thats love.


I think so, too. When we were talking about unconditional love earlier that is part of it, to me. You are happy even doing things you don't enjoy because you know it pleases your partner.

Or..you do the begrudginly because you know it makes the other person happy but you bite your lip and say nothing about it. smile I'll even take that. I'm just happy to be able to go spend a couple of hours in a dark theater snuggled up to him. smile

You didn't say that he begrudgingly agreed. I think he is going so he can be with you and he knows it will make you happy. Love, baby!

I don't know how he meant it. It was all via a text exchange since we were both at work. I can just bet he's not thrilled about the movie, but I'll accept that he might just want to be with me. Progress.

Right!

He is offering to go with you, regardless of whether he really wants to see the movie. So take him up on it, and make sure he knows how much you appreciate him spending the time with you!

If he's doing it begrudgingly, that's his problem for not speaking up or saying no.

Mish, Mish, Mish! When the man doesn't do anything you bitch about his motives and now when he does something you bitch about his motives...take some deep breaths, accept that he asked and have a good time! I used to send my wife flowers and one time she said to me "you just send me flowers because you know I like them, it's not the real you!" Don't be like her!!!! She had predetermined who I was and whenever I didn't do anything that didn't fit her picture she just disallowed it. It couldn't be genuine because I did it.
Btw, get popcorn too...go big! grin

So how was the movie?? I want to go, but I need to wait maybe a week or so because all the screaming girls make me want to throttle each and every one of them!! lol Too bad this is what they are soaking up as real love.
