You probably say it a lot, I know I do. ..”It’s the little things.” I say it at least once a week at work when someone goes out of
their way to make my life easier, I think it as soon I as I sit down at a restaurant and right before I leave the tip, and I expect it when I am in a romantic relationship.
This past weekend I took a mini-ski vacation with a couple of friends. The first night there we partied pretty hard. One of the girls had a little too much of…well, everything and when we returned home after the evening of dancing she headed straight for the restroom. She was in there for about 30 minutes, silent, praying to the porcelain god. Soon after, one of our guy friends got concerned, so he went in to check on her. He knew she wanted to be sick (but couldn’t) so he forced it for her. Yes, he forced it for her…with two of his fingers…down her throat.
Obviously I didn’t get these details until the next day, and I’m sure most of you reading this find the whole things disgusting (I do too) but for her, it was one of those ’little things.’
Ladies, men, what are some of the little things that go a long way for you?
Some of mine –
- When he sends me an early morning text
- When he offers a backrub
- When he holds my purse
- When he shops with me
- When he drives so I can drink
- When he joins me on a long run

When he sends (or brings) flowers just because.
When he joins me at an office event, even though he knows he’ll be bored out of his mind.
When he goes with me to get a late night snack, even though he doesn’t plan to eat anything.

You win brownie points when you:
1. Rub my head (rated G) while laying together.
2. Tries to “stand up for me” or jumps in on random disputes. For example, if I call the waiter/waitress over bc of an issue with my meal, and right when I start talking she jumps in and starts explaining how “we are” dissatisfied. Now I see how this could become annoying if it happens too often, as if I can’t speak for myself, but to me it shows that my “girl” is gonna back me up no matter how big or small the problem. It’s kinda sexy.
3. Being health and weight conscious. A woman who cares about what she eats and her weight without my passive aggressive comments is wonderful in my eyes. It doesn’t mean it will last forever, but for now dammit it makes me smile.
3. Fellatio
