What are some of your quirks that your love is patient about? Sometimes, people have quirks that they know are not the best, and they put effort into trying to manage them, but they are essentially a part of who they are. In those moments, one could only hope that his or her love will be compassionate enough to let you love through your quirk and come out on the other end.

My quirk is that I sometimes feel so asocial, I don't want any human interaction. Generally, when I am in such a mood, I choose to be alone together with my BF. He's an introvert like me. Today, my reason for being asocial was because I needed to process some emotions I collected throughout the day. Some of those emotions involved my BF, so I needed to be alone completely. My boyfriend wanted to see me, he called me but I did not answer. I asked that I be allowed to stay in at my house with hopes of maybe seeing him tomorrow. He was understanding and didn't say or do anything to make me feel worse about feelings asocial.

It's strange when I have quirks I am not particularly fond of myself because I can feel myself trying to counter my quirk while also acting on it. My main concern and fear, always, is that my asocial phases will weaken my bond with my BF, and I always strive to do things that will build us up.

My BF ended up coming by my house and handing something to my brother to give to me: A dark chocolate bar with crystallized ginger and a poem on the inside of the wrapper, a chocolate-brownie-fudge cupcake, a cup of hot chocolate with what tasted like Aztec spices, and a postcard with one of his drawings and a note.

Later, I wrote him a text sharing my thought process and also thanking him for his thoughtful gift, now that my head is cleared a bit better.

I feel truly blessed to have someone who is so understanding of me when I feel I don't deserve such patience. I suppose the only way I can make peace with that is to consciously put forth the effort to grant him the same level of courtesy and kindness should be go through a phase where he doesn't feel so lovable.

What do you think about this? When do you not feel so lovable and what does you love do to remind you of the special person you are to him/her?

Awww That's really sooooo sweet and romantic

As far as Quirks are concerned I don't know whether this is called quirk or not but one thing that my boyfriend is very patient about is my fighting and criticizing habit (both with my boyfriend only) lol I hate myself for that but it has been 4 years we are together and he is still tolerating all that butter. I am a big critic when it comes to my boyfriend I pic fights with him if he doesn't text me because he is busy or he doesn't give me time etc but he tolerates all that I know it all doesn't sounds good but I can't control these tantrums my Aries sun and mercury sucks.
Relationship becoming weaker would not be the right sentence to say because we still love each other and are hopeful for our future together but yes these daily fights are adversely effecting our relationship ๐Ÿ˜ข

Thank you for sharing. โค

Communication is helping me because I don't want to harbor emotions when it comes to him, and the only way for me to understand and be understood is to communicate and articulate particular things.

Yeah and I have to learn the opposite of that. I have to learn to shut my mouth when something is bothering me
