Ah a cup of tea in bed every morning sounds like the best way to start the day. Although – reading that back it sounds like a euphamism…!

You’re very right – the ordinary gestures are the ones that count. Flowers are nice too though, obvs (if you’re reading this NLM!).

There definitely is someone for you Alice. And whoever he is will be a very lucky man. x

A sense of humour is a deal breaker as far as I’m concerned!

love this. i have no plans on getting married (he agrees, not just me being stubborn ha) but am in a long term relationship so obviously i can identify with this on some level. he is the least romantic person ever, i’ve never had breakfast in bed or random gestures of love (unless you count buying me chocolate bars from time to time) and sometimes when i’m ill he tells me to ‘stop being lazy’ – but i know that when it comes down to it, he loves me and cares for me and whenever i’ve really needed him he’s been there (or at least via text if he’s at work) for me. he’s so supportive and kind and just an all round wonderful person…unless he’s in a strop 😉

also totally agreed about a sense of humour! couldn’t be without that.

Love love love grandma from the north’s comment! This was such a great post to read Molly – I’d love to get married again one day and things like this make me believe there is someone out there for me. It’s nice to hear your take on it and is fairly parallel with my beliefs on marriage… it’s tough, nobody’s perfect and it takes a lot of hard work and perseverance but the payoffs (and lie-ins) are more than worth it xx

Beautiful post Molly, really resonated with me. Thanks for this ‘window into life’ how true it is – how many times I have stupidly wished for a bunch of flowers when the most wonderful ordinary gestures are happening right under my nose xx

My OH makes me a cup of tea in bed every single morning. It’s one tiny thing but it means so much to me
