How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

I‘m Neurotic & He Still Loves Me

in Everyday on 07/12/10

I worry that because my Wedding rings feel tight  my finger might be broken?  Did I sprain it?  This could be the on set of arthritis!  He reminds me it is 40 flippin degrees Celsius out. Hot and sticky plus popcorn equals rings not fitty.  He calms me down. 

He reminds me that a headache can be just that.  A headache.  Google and symptom checker, not always my friend.

I’m sure that this outfit, the seventh I have tried on, is just as bad as the first six.  He truly cares, and helps me find something I feel good in.  He loves me enough to help me find a pair of “you don’t look fat in those pants”.  He makes me feel “hawt”.

He gets that chocolate chip cookies are the perfect breakfast food. He doesn’t judge, as a matter of fact, sometimes he even bakes! 

He finds it endearing…ok he tolerates it, when he finds croutons in the bed.  Who eats salad in bed?  Um Me.

He knows if I’m in a bad mood..like almost never, cause I’m perfect……that it is best to never ever ask if I have PMS, or acknowledge that mood!  Actually it might be best not to make eye contact, just bring chocolate. 

He lets me have the aisle seat on the plane, even though he is the one way over 6 feet…cause I need it….I just do!  It feels less confined, there is more power in that seat, he rolls with it.

I always get the side of the bed that is closer to the bathroom too.  I don’t know why, but I need that side, it’s better.

He shakes his head and plays along when I ask him for the third time “Are you sure this chicken isn’t pink?”.

He will even taste the milk to assure me it isn’t sour.

He gets my particular kind of crazy.  He is the calm to my spaz, and the quiet to my chat. 

Sometimes I can’t believe how lucky I am that he loves me….cause I’m all neurotic like that.

      Too funny! You’re lucky to have someone like him but I suspect he’s lucky to have you as well. 🙂

      This was too funny! I am finally in a position to start catching up with all my blogging divas — boy am I so out of the loop. I can relate to so many of your quirks, you have a keeper there darling.

      all the best, Coryanne

      You have a great hubby. My hubby puts up with my craziness, too. Also? You and I are like kindred spirits! We could be BFF’s, I swear. I worry all the time over EVERYTHING. Everything. And I’m neurotic, totally and 100%.

      WORD! I totally woke the hubs up at 2 am last night because I couldn’t find the cat’s medicine. He was all… did you look in the cabinet? I was all… OF COURSE! Yeah, it was right where we always keep it. He handed it to me, gave me a kiss and went back to bed. Aren’t we lucky to have snagged a couple o’ good ones?

      I love that even with the neurosis, you can see all his good points!

      Okay, the milk thing does equal true love.

      When I get all hypochondriac on my wife, she just tells me to shut up and that I am an idiot.

      She keeps me grounded.

      He sounds like a keeper for sure!

      I’m jealous…no really, I’m jealous! I don’t think, no I know mine wouldn’t give all that up for me. I love him, but he’s stingy.

      Awww this is such a romantic post, this is what it’s all about, accepting. Just lovely.
