    You said all the right things here dude, let’s see if you remember this in the heat of an argument! Better yet, try reciting this list at the beginning of your next argument.
    Heh heh

  2. Awwww! That’s so sweet!

  6. jane said

    I hope you feel this way after 25 years of marriage, a few children, raising the children, surviving teenagers and all of the problems that go with time. Keep this list close to you and add to it over the years and you will be fine. I love it. God Bless,

    Somebody is getting laid! Way to go man!

  8. Nice!

  9. Mercedes H said

    Your post is amazing, very few men still have this sense of gratitude.. It’s so sweet and I’m sure she’s so happy with it..

    On Jane’s:
    I’m sure they’ve already faced some obstacles in their relationship, family life together as life never goes perfect all the time or downs-free, if she’s gone like that 3 or 4 years, she can go 25 years as well.. And awwwwww the woman is smart, she never gets cheated on bills the thing we all slip in..

    You brought a tear in my eye. I am away from family, hit hard by the recession, and miss her. She’s thousand’s of miles away and yet is the source of my strength. God bless.

  11. Edward said

    This is helping me out….when I read the list, there are some of the same reasons I love my wife…I just cant bring them to the forefront of my memory at will. This list will help me…God, you don’t know how much this list will help!!! Thanx again!

  14. Wow, amazing blog layout! How long have you been blogging for? you made blogging look easy. The overall look of your web site is great, let alone the content!

    I will be married 37 years in a few days and I still feel that way. We had a son die in an accident at age 21. We have suffered from great financial reversal. We had a house burn last year. Our oldest son has given us hell with alcohol, drugs, and women since he was 15 and is just now improving at age 35. I am currently out of a job for the first time in my life. I still love her and more importantly she still loves me.

    I have taken the ones from your list that apply and personalized them:

    I love it because you cry during movies.
    (I cry as much as you do now!)

    I print things like this on strips of paper and hide them around the house or put them on the mirror in our bathroom. I don’t know who loves it more when she finds them, me or her.

    Those little strips of paper serve as kindling.

    My soon to be x husband couldn’t think of one reason when asked this by a counselor. We’ve been faithfully married twenty years with three kids, ages 18, 14 and 13. I’m a kind lady, teacher, person, not perfect, but good. :)
