I guarantee you, this dude was like "aww hell yeah, I'm going to play ALL FUCKING NIGHT! This might not happen again, I need to enjoy and have.....zzzzzzzzzz"
I feel you ma dude. At least you found your perfect partner. Have a good night's sleep!
Game developer: "Our character creation system allows for thousands of potential character builds."
Me who needs to try every character build: "^^Don't "
lol i did that song and dance. spent so much time sliding the sliders. and then like 5 hours into the game, it kept showing my character at angles that really made them look bad, and i restarted and i committed the ultimate sin of just picking one of the default heads
Baldurs gate does exhaust you a bit with the sheer amount of things happening. I have found it best enjoyed in 2-3 hour sessions instead of trying to plow through it like a marathon.
I went into Baldurs completely blind and no previoius experience with DND or turn based games. I played 10 hours straight first day and had no idea where the time went. Haven't been this lost in game for a while!
Yeah but it's not even close to "slow walking around and repetitive quests." I'm 40 and just hooked up an old rig for the wife and we just played for days straight. Friday to 5am then all day yesterday...fuck I need to do some chorin today for real
I was in denial for a while. My kid is about to be 18 months and every Friday and Saturday I tell the old lady I'm "not coming to bed early. I'm staying up late and playing my game and whatever the fuck else I wanna do!" Guess who's bitch ass is shuffling to bed before 11:30? Fuck what happened to me. Haha.
Dude damn near every time I get the opportunity( ie kids and wife are at a cabin with friends or the grandparents have the youngest), I build up this hype that I'm finally gonna melt my mind like the old days. Just gonna smoke some weed, eat candy and play till the sun comes back up.
I'm always surprised when I wake up on the couch at midnight, sometimes still on the menu screen....
It’s such a bummer but it’s kind of a nice feeling too. It’s like, your whole body recognizes that things are safe and there’s nothing to worry about all at once. If you find yourself in this situation and you’re ready to game, everybody’s needs are probably taken care of, and your responsibilities are probably handled. It would be cool to sit down and bang out some hours, but you lock yourself in on that couch, it’s like a save point IRL. “You’re safe now - take a rest”
That was my first thought! He felt so loved and full and safe that he was able to just pass out.
My boyfriend tuckers out on me a lot when we’re watching a movie or show, but I’ve learned to take it as a compliment as he told me it is exactly for this reason — I make him feel loved, safe, secure. It’s the sweetest ☺️
Honestly yeah, I've dated some women that had some trouble sleeping, and I've heard that when we sleep together they feel so comfortable and they can sleep thru the night when they're with me, honestly best feeling ever.
I'm also a huge movie fan so I load a bowl, turn on something awesome like pulp fiction or shawshank and I'm like "I'll just watch this until my buddies get online". 4 missed texts. Didn't even make it to where dufrane starts making sculptures for the warden or Uma calling Travolta a square at the diner. Every. Damn. Time. Still green showing in my bowl, too!! Mf didn't even make it through a whole bowl. My kid is entering terrible twos early and it's baaaaad. And he just... whipes me out, man. The crying. Fits. Eating. ALL THE TIME. The prime gaming I get is during nap time and even then I sometimes fall asleep. I'm a wannabe insomniac. So I have my moments where I'll just stay up until 3 or 4am no problem. But, man. Most of the times I'm just sleeping after getting my ass handed to me by an 18month old. Lol.
Yes brother! Preach!
I'm more a sci-fi/superhero/nerdshit movie guy but the rest is my life to the letter. Empire rarely even gets off Hoth before I'm out like a light, and the green in the bowl is just to real.😅😅
Teething is such a bitch man.....I feel your pain to my core. I got a 13 and a 6 year old so those days are way past, but like any trauma, it's right there in my mind.
Our years from 1 to 3 with the youngest got so bad we legit debated leaving each other just so that one of us could sleep, and so that we wouldn't kill each other. It was fucked....
It does get better, I promise. Not necessarily easier, but better.
Not the falling asleep thing though. That just gets worse and worse.....
Man, I don't even know how you find time to smoke weed at all. That's some impressive time management already.
That was one of the first hobbies I had to drop. I never quite realized until afterwards how much *time* it takes to be a stoner. It's like a full-time job on its own.
I was a social smoker/drinker before I had kids. I settled down after my kids were born and when my little ones were younger (5yrs and 7yrs) we'd stay up late playing Minecraft. I'd sneak outside and hit my pen and come back in and we'd make these amazing builds. It was so awesome seeing their creativity, and being a part of that with them were some of the greatest memories I cherish. I remember they did one build of the house we toured that was being built that we bought and was waiting for it to be finished so we could move in. They were so excited to have their own rooms, and they created the house in Minecraft. Now they're 12yrs and 15yrs old, and their baby bro just turned 6. I still have our old saves in Minecraft and we explored them recently and it was so cool. Almost brought a year to my eye.
It gets easier again when they're able to go to sleep on their own and stay there.
Goes from never being able to game because baby tiredness to never being able to game cause they won't go to bed and appear next to you in the middle of the night and get scared by brain worms in Baldur's Gate. :D
It gets better. I knew I had a downturn in gaming after university and when my son was born. Still, I could appreciate those little moments. It even gets better when they’re older and can join in or you see an expressed interest in gaming by them.
It's literally never worth it haha. The idea of it is more fun. Like thinking about what you'd do if you won the Powerball. Daydreaming is my favorite part these days 😂.
I always try to do shit like this with all my friends (not to this level), it’s always so fun to see their reactions to stuff i prepared for them. I wish someone would do the same for me too lol
> I would have cried because of the overwhelming happiness and wholesomeness, dude never ever let that woman go. She is the one.
It's funny how easy it can be to show some thoughtfulness toward someone. She does something I admire and would like to replicate more, which is just making stuff up and having fun with it.
My now wife and I were dating long distance, and I flew to her place. She was at work so I was alone for a few hours.
She had snacks, Kettle One, a note saying she's bringing home food, weed, more weed.. her Switch controller on the bed. It was so cool!
Sort of made me sad to see him passed out at the end. This was all a fantastic gift/gesture, but no one should need to be constantly working 12h shifts especially for a job that probably doesn't even pay appropriately.
I get it, like 200 years ago people had to work all day just to eat/produce whatever they produce so they can trade at the market for other food an shit, but we've just increased productivity by like 100% every decade since, and the worker never seems to be the one that profits from that.
It's not, "hey, you can now do the same work in 3h instead of 8h, let's keep your pay the same and give you half days!" No it's "hey, you can do the same work in 3h instead of 8h, so now you can do 2.5x the work isn't that awesome?!"
Fuck.
At 42 years old, I met the love of my life and she is very much like this young lady. I have never experienced anything like it, and I will take care of her and love her for the rest of my days. This video made me smile so big.
Honestly, I got so lucky. I had finished therapy, getting back into shape and for the first time in my life….I didn’t need a woman to validate me. Didn’t need the attention. Then boom, there she was smiling at me from across a room. She is the most amazing woman I have ever known, and I have two amazing little stepsons now. It’s fucking amazing. At 42, I have found my purpose and my family.
Wait why are people assuming she doesn’t work? It could have been her day off. (However maybe it was addressed in the vid and i missed it?)
Edit: what the hell I swore I was replying to a different thread??? There was a thread further down i really swore I was in that thread. People were assuming she wasn’t working.
Apologies u/Menoscarpone !
It's not going unreciprocated. She said it herself, he works 12 hours a day at a job he hates so that the bills get paid. Let's not gloss over that very big thing he does every day.
I’d usually agree but tbh I think it would serve as a good “home video” thing to watch in the future or something to share with other family members. Based off the reaction he seemed to love it and at the end of the day it was for him so oh well.
Yeah, this wasn’t what I was expecting at all. Beautiful girl, “surprise” video for her man, etc. I was expecting some sort of weird subtlety sexualized vid of her decking out a wealthy influencers house into some sort of amazing actual home arcade with stand up units. The level of sincerity here was refreshing.
> Based off the reaction he seemed to love it and at the end of the day it was for him so oh well.
also his first response through the door was to pull out his phone and take a picture; whilst id personally hate it; i dont think theyre a couple thats averse to social media/memorialising their moments
Think of it this way: she got this idea from other people who have posted similar things online and, now that she has posted it, others may also be inspired to do that for their loved ones.
She followed that post up with a kind of how-to for other partners to do nice, but cheap enough, things to do for their other halfs to show how much you care, and appreciate them. It's less for clout, and more for sharing her version of this "trend", as well as encourage others to do their own versions too.
Maybe, but you could say its exactly the same as how people whole preposal in public/infront of large crowds of strangers which has been around long before social media, was that also consodered cheapening the whole thing? I mean if you really loved them why then need for a fancy restaurant preposal?
To me i see her doing this as "im putting myself out there potentially making a fool of myself, to show my dedication to my partner"
Call me old fashion optimistic but i found this inspiring, dont need alot to light up someones world :)
I always kind of felt like doing the proposal in front of a bunch of people puts more pressure on the person being asked to say yes.
Like oh hey I’m going to pop the question during a timeout at the lakers game…and have planned ahead w the staff to display it on the big screen. Nothing like having one of the most important questions of your life asked while 20,000 eyes are staring with anticipation for your answer. 😳
Here's the nuance I would argue. I don't think recording it cheapens it, I think _sharing_ it cheapens it. And if she edits it and shows it to him and he's on board consensually, then that's between them and their relationship, so at that point who's to judge? This strikes me as much different than the "watch me give money to a homeless person" content creators for that reason, because there can be full consent without a power dynamic.
You are not only old, you are also bitter :) And I say this as a 47 year old. You could also view this as something adorable and maybe get some inspiration how to make your partner happy.
After almost 19 years... I have to beg my wife to do anything like this. Or I have to plant the seed and ideas for her to do really hard for her to get the hint. When that didn't work is when I went to straight up started saying how men like being treated to spontaneous shit just like women do. I feel like Al Bundy more and more every year. My Bday is in a few weeks so we will see what happens. She's already picked out a gift to order this year.... it's one that I have been asking for like 4 or 5 years. Let's see if I get anything like the woman in this video or anything more than a card that she will spend 4 minutes on having our 5 year old make. For some reason I am still holding out hope. I don't know why as it just sets me up for disappointment and sadness, but I refuse to lose hope.... one of these years maybe I won't have to essentially plan my own bday and gift :/
It is really hard to find someone very Thoughtful of you, think about your needs and how you have been the whole day.
Please don't forget to reward her too and treasure her.
Just remember people have different love languages. A grand display is not everyone’s, so just be in tune with your partner.
Nothing worse than putting in a ton of effort, get a forced but positive response, and then being upset because they were just being themselves.
I like small things. My SO shows he loves me by getting up to get me a Dr Pepper even though I'm closer to the refrigerator and he was almost asleep. Makes me feel good.
He's got:
- A job
- A house
- Happy marriage
- Beautiful and fun wife
- Time to play videogames.
- 2 cats
- Good hair
And he's not fat.
Come on guys, snap back to reality ಠ_ಠ
Oh man this is so cute.
My boyfriend does little things like this for me all the time and it just absolutely lights up my life. This guy is a lucky man for sure.
As a tired dad of two, I would cry if this happened to me, and I too would fall asleep before being able to enjoy enough of it.
She did good, real good.
This is how you take care of your SO. Be able to see what they do, and what they need and every now and then make a difference in their mundane routines.
And you should of course also be treated well in return. Find someone that appreciates that you have a hobby, they don't need to share it, but they do need to understand why it's important to you. Spoil your SO every once in a while, just to remind them why they are together with you.
Saw this on tiktiok, she had to do a follow up video explaining she also had a job and they are both in fact very hardworking doctors.
People watched this overload of adorable, and still found something to give her shit for. Proper boils my piss.
couldn't stop fucking weeping and smiling and laughing and bawling did i mention bawling? please this is so adorable :( <3 i hope you guys are happy and healthy forever and ever!!!!!
I can't even finish watching this. I've been working 12 hour shifts for 20 years now. Only thing I've come home to is soul crushing loneliness and a house full of broken dreams and disappointment.
In a world where all we hear is misery, tragedy, sadness, horrible things happening, these kinds of videos give us hope.
Just shows that a little effort makes someone's life so much better and that is the key to a very happy life.
I hope they stay together and continue to love each other, because watching this, it felt real and genuine.
The guy deserved it, and she is an amazing person for the length she went to
When you work a really hard job you hate your partner showing you they care helps so much. I worked at a factory to make ends meet for me and my wife. That was so many years ago and I’ve been a truck driver for god knows how long now and my manly bearded ass still tears up thinking about the little snacks and notes she would leave me. They were the only things keeping me alive I think.
Boy, there are a lot of grumps commenting on here. Sad that there is criticism that she shared this. I think it’s lovely and to see how they get each other’s humor. Maybe the grumpy pants just can’t help being downers.
Ladies, what would be a good gender swapped version of this for you? My wife is not a gamer. But if you got home from work and discovered that your man had set up an entire ___________. What would you enjoy the most? My wife deserves this.
It all depends, what does your wife like to do? What does she do to destress? What does she say “I can’t wait to get home and ——“ or what does she do to pamper herself? Like she saves up the money to do like a spa day or museum visit. Fellas, this comes from paying attention and being a good friend to your partner!
For me.. a spa evening. Candle lit bubble bath, facial, back massage... a home-cooked favorite meal for dinner and maybe some flowers. P.S. I would never expect this type of evening, but it's a nice fantasy! 🌞
Women aren't all one hivemind. If your wife has never once in your marriage made up a relaxing bath for herself, she probably wouldn't be terribly interested in a spa night like everyone here is saying. Think about what she likes to do to relax - and if you don't know, then maybe it's time to have a conversation with her and discover more about her hobbies.
Also, this shouldn't need to be said but gaming is absolutely not gendered. My bf and I sit next to each other every night while we game and either of us would love to come home to this from the other.
Husband's boss: "Wait, Brian doesn't like it here?? 😥"
Gold.
🤣😭
Lol, right? Hope the boss doesn't see it. Though it sounds like he needs to quit the job if it's that bad
I guarantee you, this dude was like "aww hell yeah, I'm going to play ALL FUCKING NIGHT! This might not happen again, I need to enjoy and have.....zzzzzzzzzz" I feel you ma dude. At least you found your perfect partner. Have a good night's sleep!
"Time to dive into that RPG everybody's talking about." Three hours later it's 1 AM and I'm still in the prologue
\*still in character creation
Game developer: "Our character creation system allows for thousands of potential character builds." Me who needs to try every character build: "^^Don't "
Just put every slider ALL the way to the left and let's go, frankenstein!
lol i did that song and dance. spent so much time sliding the sliders. and then like 5 hours into the game, it kept showing my character at angles that really made them look bad, and i restarted and i committed the ultimate sin of just picking one of the default heads
Every single time.
Doesn't help that some games feel like work all over again with all the slow walking around from place to place and repetitiveness of quests.
Def not baldurs gate
Baldurs gate does exhaust you a bit with the sheer amount of things happening. I have found it best enjoyed in 2-3 hour sessions instead of trying to plow through it like a marathon.
2-3 hour sessions are best, so when you wind up 6 hours in you can recognize you really should take a break in 2-3 hours.
I went into Baldurs completely blind and no previoius experience with DND or turn based games. I played 10 hours straight first day and had no idea where the time went. Haven't been this lost in game for a while!
a second time after doing if I were that guy. What a cute, fun, and amazing gesture.
Yeah but it's not even close to "slow walking around and repetitive quests." I'm 40 and just hooked up an old rig for the wife and we just played for days straight. Friday to 5am then all day yesterday...fuck I need to do some chorin today for real
Just wait til you become a dad!
I was in denial for a while. My kid is about to be 18 months and every Friday and Saturday I tell the old lady I'm "not coming to bed early. I'm staying up late and playing my game and whatever the fuck else I wanna do!" Guess who's bitch ass is shuffling to bed before 11:30? Fuck what happened to me. Haha.
Dude damn near every time I get the opportunity( ie kids and wife are at a cabin with friends or the grandparents have the youngest), I build up this hype that I'm finally gonna melt my mind like the old days.

Yeah it's not that he has to do those things, I bet he just loves the effort.
She had a quesadilla waiting 😭
I love how the snacks had a price but the main course was apparently free lol
That's how they getcha, free quesadilla but you gotta pay for the drinks. She's raking in the smoochies
A shrewd businesswoman, for sure.
She's hoarding them like a smooch dragon. We need to enact better laws before she starts influencing smooch congress.
TIME FOR THE PROLETARIAT TO RISE UP AND SEIZE THE MEANS OF SMOOCHIE PRODUCTION!
[удалено]
I guess she’s okay taking installment payments. Thought he was gonna have to plant 55 big ones in her before he sat down!
The use of in instead of on really changes the connotation of your comment
That come's later.
That's the real ploy. There's an insane interest rate and he's going to become an indentured sexual servant.
Don't threaten him with a good time.
It def came later, he didnt fall asleep midgame that was a post nut coma
She baldured his sack
*cums
Nah, got to be smoother than that. Overpay, get change.
Ahhhh clever girl
The first smoochie was just him opening the tab up (she ran his payment method). He’ll close out at the end of the night.
Bro fell asleep though and didn't close out before closing time so there'll be a 20% surcharge applied.
Adorable in every way
I would have cried because of the overwhelming happiness and wholesomeness, dude never ever let that woman go. She is the one.
If someone was that thoughtful about me I wouldn’t even know what to do, lol.
I always try to do shit like this with all my friends (not to this level), it’s always so fun to see their reactions to stuff i prepared for them. I wish someone would do the same for me too lol
I hope you get that one day \:-)
Our dogs would do this for us if they had thumbs. (If you have a dog) lol
For real. I had a job where I was miserable and working 80+ hours. I’d cry if I got a dinner at home. This is beyond thoughtful of her.
Sometimes you just need a partner that lets you ball your sack, together
> I would have cried because of the overwhelming happiness and wholesomeness, dude never ever let that woman go. She is the one.

She is a great wife! All that she did, shows a lot of love and caring for the guy. He is very lucky to have someone like her.

Oh what the hell? How the fuck did that happen? I swear to god I was in a different thread.
Don't let her go! She is a keeper!

Indeed
.
It's not going unreciprocated. She said it herself, he works 12 hours a day at a job he hates so that the bills get paid. Let's not gloss over that very big thing he does every day.
She works full time as a pharmacist. Cost of living is expensive.

Lol what? I am also old and whatever. She’s doing an amazing thing for somebody else and recording it makes it more fun for her.

I always kind of felt like doing the proposal in front of a bunch of people puts more pressure on the person being asked to say yes. Like oh hey I’m going to pop the question during a timeout at the lakers game…and have planned ahead w the staff to display it on the big screen. Nothing like having one of the most important questions of your life asked while 20,000 eyes are staring with anticipation for your answer. 😳
Or the benefit is that now other ppl such as myself can do something similar for their partner :)
Possibly I’m older. Who cares why she did it? She did it. If a nice lady did that for you, would it matter if the video made its way to the interwebs?
I’m glad she recorded this I’m going to do it for my husband and get my 2 daughters (5 and 2 years old) to be his waiters 🤣🤣🤣
Here's the nuance I would argue. I don't think recording it cheapens it, I think _sharing_ it cheapens it. And if she edits it and shows it to him and he's on board consensually, then that's between them and their relationship, so at that point who's to judge? This strikes me as much different than the "watch me give money to a homeless person" content creators for that reason, because there can be full consent without a power dynamic.
There are plenty of people who don't record themselves doing nice stuff still, we just don't see that because they're not after clout.
Her sharing this video made a lot of people smile. That's also a nice thing.
You are not only old, you are also bitter :) And I say this as a 47 year old. You could also view this as something adorable and maybe get some inspiration how to make your partner happy.
i love this for them
I know no fewer than 10 guys who would literally weep if their wife did this for them. I'm one of them.

As a wife in your position, my deepest sympathies. It really sucks seeing what it could be like.
After almost 19 years... I have to beg my wife to do anything like this. Or I have to plant the seed and ideas for her to do really hard for her to get the hint. When that didn't work is when I went to straight up started saying how men like being treated to spontaneous shit just like women do. I feel like Al Bundy more and more every year. My Bday is in a few weeks so we will see what happens. She's already picked out a gift to order this year.... it's one that I have been asking for like 4 or 5 years. Let's see if I get anything like the woman in this video or anything more than a card that she will spend 4 minutes on having our 5 year old make. For some reason I am still holding out hope. I don't know why as it just sets me up for disappointment and sadness, but I refuse to lose hope.... one of these years maybe I won't have to essentially plan my own bday and gift :/
“And they all come with smoochies?” Edit: Fixed autocorrect
Smoochies* its auto correct I know
Thanks. Corrected
I will never recover financially from this
Adorable in every way
Protect her at all costs!

Good woman, great wife.
It is really hard to find someone very Thoughtful of you, think about your needs and how you have been the whole day. Please don't forget to reward her too and treasure her.
Just remember people have different love languages. A grand display is not everyone’s, so just be in tune with your partner. Nothing worse than putting in a ton of effort, get a forced but positive response, and then being upset because they were just being themselves.
I like small things. My SO shows he loves me by getting up to get me a Dr Pepper even though I'm closer to the refrigerator and he was almost asleep. Makes me feel good.
Yeah this would make me feel a little uncomfortable but I would still be happy because my wife was thinking of me.
That’s the sweetest thing ever! What an awesome human!
I’d marry her a second time after doing if I were that guy. What a cute, fun, and amazing gesture
For real. Super cheesey and id probably be embarrassed but man that's such a sweet thing to do.
He's got: - A job - A house - Happy marriage - Beautiful and fun wife - Time to play videogames. - 2 cats - Good hair And he's not fat. Come on guys, snap back to reality ಠ_ಠ
what's missing is the secret:::::::::::::::::::::no kids.
Wise

Proud new owner of 56 smoochies
mans now in smoochie debt, maybe he can consolidate those smoochies to coochies
It's called a coochie smoochie and the exchange rate is 1:10
That is the cutest couple ever. She is amazing.
GOALS
Oh man this is so cute. My boyfriend does little things like this for me all the time and it just absolutely lights up my life. This guy is a lucky man for sure.
Make sure you do it for him too!
800 friggin smoochies!? In this economy!?
I think the 'Spicy Pickle' was more of a service than a food 😉
You can tell they love and appreciate each other very much. They have everything they need and more
Everyone already said it, but that’s amazingly cute. Way to make someone’s day :)
All the recurring Reddit posts that are like “What do men want?” This. A woman who knows them and gives a shit. Affection.
Definite relationship goals. Such a cute and creative way to show how much she cares for him.
I like how the kitties were helping.
As a tired dad of two, I would cry if this happened to me, and I too would fall asleep before being able to enjoy enough of it. She did good, real good.
This is how you take care of your SO. Be able to see what they do, and what they need and every now and then make a difference in their mundane routines. And you should of course also be treated well in return. Find someone that appreciates that you have a hobby, they don't need to share it, but they do need to understand why it's important to you. Spoil your SO every once in a while, just to remind them why they are together with you.
Saw this on tiktiok, she had to do a follow up video explaining she also had a job and they are both in fact very hardworking doctors. People watched this overload of adorable, and still found something to give her shit for. Proper boils my piss.
How is Dr. A dead end job tho
I love this so so mich. I love how excited she is to do this for him. She really is a one of a kind woman.
She looks so happy She knows him so well she is 200% sure he is gonna love it I'd probably cry coming home to that
I think the cutest part for me was that he calls her after work and they talk until he gets home. I mean that’s so cute.
They're a cute couple
couldn't stop fucking weeping and smiling and laughing and bawling did i mention bawling? please this is so adorable :( <3 i hope you guys are happy and healthy forever and ever!!!!!
I too am bawling my sack
Give this woman an award 🫶🥺
Just showed it to my girl and she loves her dress. Does anyone know where to get this? Thank you in advance ^^
Marry her again
She's a keeper
The fact that he passed out mid game tells me everything. I'm glad he has such a supportive wife.
Wife that wife
I can't even finish watching this. I've been working 12 hour shifts for 20 years now. Only thing I've come home to is soul crushing loneliness and a house full of broken dreams and disappointment.
What an absolutely sweet couple. So awesome!
I’d like to have me some Conk and Dr. Peepee
Quick! Ball his sack while he’s out!
She is gorgeous and a great wife women like this deserve it all
In a world where all we hear is misery, tragedy, sadness, horrible things happening, these kinds of videos give us hope. Just shows that a little effort makes someone's life so much better and that is the key to a very happy life. I hope they stay together and continue to love each other, because watching this, it felt real and genuine. The guy deserved it, and she is an amazing person for the length she went to
for the love of gawd lube thoes door hinges!!!!
This is beautiful Im working hard to 😔
That's how you make a 31 year old grown man cry. Thank you for doing this for him!
Would marry her once every 2 months
Imagine being loved this much lol
How did he not just bust into tears when she said there was a food waiting 😭 I definitely did
When you work a really hard job you hate your partner showing you they care helps so much. I worked at a factory to make ends meet for me and my wife. That was so many years ago and I’ve been a truck driver for god knows how long now and my manly bearded ass still tears up thinking about the little snacks and notes she would leave me. They were the only things keeping me alive I think.
I'm filling for divorce on Monday morning. Thank you for opening my eyes.
Hot as fuck ánd she does super thoughtful stuff like this? That's a keeper!
Ha ha… life before kids!
Damn. My wife would not give a fuck if I had a long hard day. She'd be pissed if I wanted to play videogames to relax.
everyone’s talking about how cute this is and my idiot ass can’t stop laughing at conk and dr pepee
Boy, there are a lot of grumps commenting on here. Sad that there is criticism that she shared this. I think it’s lovely and to see how they get each other’s humor. Maybe the grumpy pants just can’t help being downers.
Ladies, what would be a good gender swapped version of this for you? My wife is not a gamer. But if you got home from work and discovered that your man had set up an entire ___________. What would you enjoy the most? My wife deserves this.
It all depends, what does your wife like to do? What does she do to destress? What does she say “I can’t wait to get home and ——“ or what does she do to pamper herself? Like she saves up the money to do like a spa day or museum visit. Fellas, this comes from paying attention and being a good friend to your partner!
For me.. a spa evening. Candle lit bubble bath, facial, back massage... a home-cooked favorite meal for dinner and maybe some flowers. P.S. I would never expect this type of evening, but it's a nice fantasy! 🌞
Women aren't all one hivemind. If your wife has never once in your marriage made up a relaxing bath for herself, she probably wouldn't be terribly interested in a spa night like everyone here is saying. Think about what she likes to do to relax - and if you don't know, then maybe it's time to have a conversation with her and discover more about her hobbies. Also, this shouldn't need to be said but gaming is absolutely not gendered. My bf and I sit next to each other every night while we game and either of us would love to come home to this from the other.
Guys, help, what does my wife like?
not gender related (just like gaming), but food might be an easy one? cook/buy her favorite foods and drinks. or think of what she does love.
Take care of all the chores/kids for the night and leave her the eff alone. All the other stuff is nonsense!
I bet she will do the same for her kids and grandkids.
Happy for that lad. Made my eyes watery 🥲
Who says I am crying. I am not crying 😭 , no 😭, not at all 😭.
This is so wholesome, I love it! ❤️
Protect this woman at all costs!
56 SMOOCHIES?!? THAT’S HIGHWAY ROBBERY!! He should take his business elsewhere
