things i want to do with him as a non-affectionate / romantic girl
* sleeping next to him and feeling his body heat
* doing the dishes together in silence
* reading a book while sitting next to him before bed
* doing puzzles together listening to mozart
* talking to him all night in bed
* painting the side of a house together while our baby sleeps in the nursery
* him telling me about a weird dream he had
* us waking up together and feeling his body get behind mine but doesn’t touch me while i’m half asleep
* getting mad at me and me having to formally communicate because he holds his ground n calls my bluffs
* his arm brushing against mine when we walk
* us sharing a pint of ice cream in the car
* he rubs my back, and when squirm out of sensitivity he doesn’t make it sexual
* he gives me a kiss on the cheek before leaving for work and doesn’t object when i pull him back in for five minutes
* looks behind me often to make sure i’m safe
* holding my things gently for me as i fix my hair
* him feeding me french fries while i drive
* sitting behind me in bed as i lay on him and write a report
* walking around in my underwear and him treating it as nothing
* laying on top of him to sleep and having my body fully relax n sleep
* him taking off my shirt gently after a long night out and holding eye contact while doing so
* him chasing me up the stairs until he collapses on me
* us tracing one another’s hand and teasing them rather than keeping them held
* him arguing w me and putting me in my place
* when they carry me places bridal style or like a baby as i lay my cheek on their shoulder— i’m light, i don’t feel too heavy or insecure about my weight, they keep a good grip, i fully relax
* them being away for awhile and the second the door closes i jump into his arms
