In the last few days we have endured attacks from all sides... people saying we're taking advantage of our SOs, or that they're taking advantage of us. I want everyone to post why they love their significant other to remind themselves that other peoples' opinions fade in the face of what we feel for each other.

I love my husband because:

(L) He talks in a stupid made-up language every time I call him just to make me laugh

(L) He comes with me to family functions even though he doesn't understand what's going on half the time

(L) He wanted to stay home today just to take care of me because I have a cold even though it's the world cup

(L) He always knows how I feel about something, sometimes before even I do

(L) He makes family a priority

(L) If I need him he's always there for me

He spends time with my mom and dad because he knows it makes me happy, and he is constantly telling me how much he loves them and how lucky we are to have them.

Whenever I'm stressed, he sits me down and goes through the problem to see how we can fix it.

He takes care of my dog, even though he told me when we met he wasn't fond of dogs. Now she's like his baby.

Even if he just wants to sit down and watch tv and relax, he pays attention to me and makes me sit by him so he can snuggle with me and play with my hair.

He works 10 hours a day at a hard job making only a little money so he can feel like he's taking care of me, and then he apologizes to ME for making me get up earlier than normal so I can drop him off at work.

He left the job he loved in Paris, in a city he adored, where he had friends and family, to be with me in a place where he has nothing.

I love Mohammed for reasons that really defy words, but to list the things that endear him to me so, I'll try.

I love his gentle ways with me.

Whenever we are talking, no matter what he has to say or what frame of mind he is in, when I say "I love you" he just stops mid sentence and in the most loving tone ALWAYS says "I love you too," and then continues his rant.

I adore the way he loves to talk and talk and talk.

He makes up funny little songs that make me laugh.

If he's written a new song he always hurries to share it with me and then we brainstorm on the lyrics.

If something happens in Egypt and he can't get internet or make a call from his city, he always without fail travels to the next to find internet so that I don't worry. He has even done this when he was sick with fever (and yes I chewed him out for not being in bed). I can count the days we have been unable to talk to each other in the last year on one hand. He is commited and loyal.

I love that he comes to me for comfort and advice or to share a deep discussion about just about anything under the sun.

This might be weird, but I also love the flash in his eyes when he gets angry. He has beautiful eyes.

He just TICKLES ME!

He is a creative genius in the kitchen and we adored cooking new dishes together.

And I love the way we are able to talk to eachother without words.

But most of all... he understands me to depths no other person ever has.

He is a very special human being.

He tells me I'm the piece that keeps him together.

He'll eat my crazy Asian foods just so I don't miss home so much.

He calls me 5+ times a day from work just to hear my voice.

When he comes home the first thing he does is cuddle me, and ask me how my day was!

wow not sure if words put it together but ill try

*He is always telling me i am his best friend

*I could cry for no reason (pms) and he still comforts me and pretends to knwo whats going on

*He is not afraid to cry, show me love, or be sensitive in front of other people

*He gives me the best massages even when he is so tired

*He got devastated when he lost his cell phone in jordan, not for the phone, but for the simple fact that i left little notes on it for him

*He is obsessed with country music

*He adores my family, and attends every family function which has been over 15 in 3 months, and never complains

*He hates Days of our Lives and Real world type shows, but never changes the channel on me because he knows i love them

*He brags about things i do, even if i dont do them well

*I can feel the way he loves me in his touch and see the way he loves me in his eyes

*He cannot wait to be a daddy, even though it scares us both to death

*He calls my granny, granny and my dad, dad, and i think its soooo cute

*He needs me

*And last but not least, Sofyan completes me and i complete him, he saved me from the miserable path i was on and im so grateful for that, when he hurts, i hurt, when he laughs i laugh, we fit together more perfect then most people could. I consider myself the luckiest women in the world, and im proud to stand next to him, and say he is mine. I am so grateful for him and the fact that I didnt need rough drafts to find the masterpiece, i found my soul mate at a young age, and thank god, we will have the longest, most blessed life together.

Two Hearts, Two Different Places, Sharing One Dream

We were strangers~ Starting out on a journey~Never dreaming What we'd have to go through ~Now here we are ~ And I'm suddenly standing ~ At the beginning with you ~ No one told me I was going to find you ~ Unexpected ~ What you did to my heart ~ When I lost hope You were there to remind me ~ This is the start ~ Life is a road And I want to keep going ~ Love is a river I wanna keep flowing ~ Life is a road Now and forever ~ Wonderful journey ~ I'll be there When the world stops turning~ I'll be there When the storm is through ~ In the end I wanna be standing At the beginning with you~

He pushes me to be a better person

He can't go to sleep without texting me good night

he would give up the Worldcup for me (not that I would ask him to)

He understands me and never judges me

He has put on such a high Peddistal that It's going to be a hard fall (poor guy)

He is the most amazing person on the planet. At least in my eyes

He's not my husband yet, but I think of him that way...

(L) He's willing to leave all that is familiar to him and move here to have a life together

(L) He makes me laugh when I don't even feel like smiling

(L) He 'gets IT' more than anyone I have ever known

(L) He tells me I'm "The One" and that he hasn't had a life until now

(L) He puts himself in my position all the time and understands me more than anyone has ever tried to

(L) He stops me in the parking lot just to gaze into my eyes

(L) He always puts me first

(L) He knows how to challenge and 're-direct' me if I'm not 'right thinking'

(L) He makes me feel like I'm the only woman on earth

(L) He loves my church, my kids, my friends, my dogs, and my horses... he knows what's important to me

(L) He wants to share things that are special to him, like his music

(L) He's willing to muck horse stalls without complaint

(L) He puts the toilet seat down and I never even had to ask... :thumbs:

(L) Even though he's electronically-phobic, he's mastered the art of emailing and text messaging just to keep in contact with me. Skype was HIS idea....

I love my David.

8-30-05 Met David at a restaurant in Germany

3-28-06 David 'officially' proposed

4-26-06 I-129F mailed

9-25-06 Interview: APPROVED!

A great marriage is not when the "perfect couple" comes together.

It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.
