Has taken up so much more of our homelife management while caring for me during cancer treatments. He's not just doing it, he seems happy and like it's no big deal. His upbeat attitude is a buoy during uncertain times for both me and our children. I married right.

My husband is really lovely. I wish I had some physical attraction for him. I mean, he does such nice things all the time.

My XH paid the bills and met the minimum. Current partner has the little things down and I feel so loved. I forgot some leftovers the other day. He brought them to work all wrapped with sides and in tupperwares. He makes me drip coffee every morning. Small everyday thoughtful things like that melt me.

Thanks for this thread, OP. It's a bright light in a sea of complaints about spouses.

Same. I was trying to think of the loveliest and I couldn't pick just one. My husband is amazing. He's not perfect, but he's amazing. I'm quite certain he'd also have a hard time coming up with something for me because we both try to do things for each other all the time. Even silly little things, like tossing a bath towel in the dryer while someone is showering. The little things add up so much over time. (He has done big things as well, but I also love the little things).

Handled all the details of my mom’s death and funeral while we were all spaced out with grief. He also paid off my student loans once I became a SAHM.

My wife was missing her Mom right around her birthday.
I surprised her by flying her mom down so that my wife walked into a decorated kitchen with a freshly baked birthday cake by her mom.
My wife still talks about it.

love this.
I'm the reeses penaut butter cup poster from above. My umbrella had gotten kind of wonky. Total side note I thought. Then for weeks I was stepping over some weird random umbrella in our foyer.
I finally was like, what the hell is this umbrella i keep stepping over. And dead serious he said, "Oh, I got you a new one and put it where the old one was. I wanted you to think an umbrella fairy came to your rescue." It was a gift for me that I kept stepping over. lol.
