I was driving in the car with a friend when she asked, “What is it you look for in a guy?” … I thought about it for a moment… I always knew what I wanted… For sure… But… I also realised that, in an effort to keep the fire burning in the long run, it’s the little things that count… After all, once you’re able to find joy in the smallest things that may sometimes seem so “everyday”, being in love’s pure joy… =)
So… I started spouting out the nice things I wish the guy of my dreams would do… By the time i dropped her off, we were both smiling to ourselves like doinks… Haha… Love’s a funny thing, ain’t it? =p
It really isn’t about the presents, money or other such material stuff… I don’t need expensive things… They don’t matter to me… Those things are highly overrated! The following are the small things a guy could do that would really mean a lot… (of course, if it’s insincere, it doesn’t count… =p)
————————–
I love it when he…
————————–
Brings me out stargazing…
Absentmindedly plays with my fingers while watcing a movie…
Lets me fall asleep curled up on a couch with my head on his lap…
Gives me hundreds of quick kisses on my forehead…
Hugs me tightly when he notices that I’m feeling chilly…
Pushes my hair out of my eyes when they get in the way…
Calls me “sunshine”…
Sings me to sleep…
Offers to take my handbag when I visit the ladies…
Blows dust out of my eye when it hurts…
Gently wipes away my tears…
Goes to a chick flick with me once in awhile…
Notices when I done anything to change my appearance…
Gives me a goodbye kiss before he leaves for school/work…
Likes the way I smell… (I have my reasons… *wink*)
Absentmindedly twirls my hair around his fingers when I’m lying down with my head on his lap…
Brushes breadcrumbs off my lips…
Kisses the tip of my nose…
Holds my hand when we walk…
Tells me how much he misses me even though we just saw each other minutes ago…
Leaves me sweet notes that I find later in the day…
Hugs me to sleep each night… (Spooning’s fine too… =))
Plays with soap bubbles and playfully blows them at me…
Brings me out for a quiet late night drive…
Plucks a wildflower and tucks it behind my ear…
Cools down the food by blowing on it before he feeds it to me…
Gives me suprise e-mails to greet me when I check my mail…
Gives me a kiss when I least expect it…
Holds me tight and tells me “everything’s gonna be okay” when things get rough…
Holds me at the small of my back when we’re out…
Leaves my favourite song on ‘repeat’ even though he’s not hot on that song…
Plays me my favourite song on the guitar…
Tells me he called just cos he missed the sound of my voice…
Stays up with me (or at least try to) when I’m rushing assignments…
Lets me choose any channel I wanna watch on tevee…
Asks me where I wanna go for dinner, and when I ask back, he says, “Baby, I’ll bring you anywhere you wanna go…”
Tells me I’ll always be his girl… (but mean it!)
Rubs my shoulders when I’m stressed out…
Carries me just for fun… =)
Wishes me “all the best” before I do go through with stuff…
Hearing his sleepy voice first thing in the morning…
Kisses me even if I’ve got morning breath…
Gives me wake up calls even if he doesn’t have to wake up that early…
Tucks me into bed when I slip out of the covers…
Kisses me in the middle of the night just cos he felt like it…
Gives me his favourite sleepy-tee…
Dances with me when “our song” comes up…
Goes dancing with me…
Dances FOR me…
Leaves me lovey-dovey sticky notes…
Cooks me dinner once in awhile…
Brings me out on a “dress-up-night-out-proper-date” even after we’ve been together for ages…
Wishes me, “Happy anniversary, honey…” when the clock strikes 12…
Says a goodnight prayer with me before bed each night…
Whispers sweet nothings into my ear as we lie in the dark…
Tells me how much he loves me each night before we drift off to dreamland…
Do bear in mind, however, that these were jotted down with my very very limited knowledge in love and romance… That together with the help of lots and lots of love stories and romantic movies… =)
*sigh*
Okay okay… Now go away and leave me with my lovey-dovey thoughts while I let “Dreamy-Pammie” take over the show…
