Thirteen Thursday

13 reasons why I don't hate my boyfriend Capt:

1. He loves his children more than anything.

2. I like the way I feel like I am with him. I don't have to walk on eggshells or pretend I like something when I don't. He likes me the way I am. I can be myself, tell him anything, do anything, be all emotional and he still supports me and shows me that he's there for me.

3. He doesn't make me go to Chuck E. Cheese with him and his children because he knows that I'd rather stab my eyeballs with an ice pick than go in there with that large rodent (an ugly rat, no less), blinky lights, loud noises.....(I'm getting cold sweats just writing this).

4. He listens to me and my suggestions and, if appropriate, he makes positive changes.

5. He's so hot. Really.

6. He has goals and I've seen him reach many of them, to me that is successful man.

7. He's not a nerd or a geek, even though he knows everything about electronic stuff. And he can carry an intelligent conversation with me.....imagine that!

8. I miss him when we are not together. It's been a long time since I experienced that. But I don't feel like I have to be near him all the time. Although he lives 2.5 miles away, we have a close relationship.

9. He is very kind to his former wife and her boyfriend. That's a lot better than dating someone who has an acrimonious relationship with their co-parenting partner.

10. He doesn't make me go to Chuck E. Cheese with him and his children because he knows that I'd rather stab my eyeballs with an ice pick than go in there with that large rodent (an ugly rat, no less), blinky lights, loud noises.....(I'm getting cold sweats just writing this).

11. He drops everything to help a friend or family.

12. Even though he constantly worries about his son's ADHD, he only rarely shows it. He just trudges on with life and makes his children's lives as normal as possible.

13. And......He reads my blog and teases me about it being the only way he gets to know what's going on in my life.

I'm not a Chuck E. Cheese fan either, but have to go at least twice a year for the grandkids' birthday parties - and another one is coming of age to want to do it!

He is such a stud, isn't he?

Pos7ed: My opinion of him being a stud drastically changed yesterday when he went walking down his street shirtless, wearing only shorts and no shoes with his butt crack showing (on purpose) just to prove to me that he is a "true 100% redneck" who loves to see me cringe because I'm so "prissy" (you know what he really calls me). Then he actually held conversations with his neighbors like that (well, he did pull up his shorts first).
