Quiztime

We had an early dinner and we're spending the evening in bed. It's funny watching him work on his laptop in bed. He sits with his knees up and his laptop balanced on his legs but it slides down and rests against his... package. I pointed that out to him "You use your junk to hold your laptop." 

He laughed and said, "It is strong enough to hold you so a laptop is easy." Fair point. 

I like to go through relationship quizzes with him. He thinks its a waste of time, but I found this one interesting: 7 Habits that lead to Divorce. 

He says these are just ways for them to sell ads and not actual scientific articles or quizzes. He still suffers through them when I bug him with them. 

1. Being Overly Affectionate During The Newlywed Phase Of Your Marriage
-Ok so we have always been overly affectionate since even before I really knew he was into guys. It's been almost 4 years and we're still like that. 

2. Avoiding Confrontation
-This one is entirely my fault. I hate confrontation and he knows this so most of our important conversations are at night in bed with the lights off when he's less intimidating. He draws it out of me and never makes me feel bad for the way I feel or the things I ask for. 

3. Letting Debt Pile Up
- He handles all the money. I don't even pull out my wallet when we buy things. He would think that is ridiculous. I know he has savings for all kinds of things plus we don't really pay for thing. His car and our apartment are through his company and he owns the townhouse we lived in and rents that out so I assume we are good. 

4. Arguing over Chores
-We never do that. When we first lived together I would complain about him leaving his clothes wherever he took them off when coming home from work, but chores are my duty since he works. He does take out the trash and he does carry all the groceries and heavy things. 

5. Addiction to games and smartphones 
-This one is more bothersome to him. When we go to dinner or spend time on the couch, we never take out our phones and he will ignore his emails and things until we have had our time together or finished our conversation. He does work a lot so I don't complain. When he does play video games (which is rare these days) I will watch or go do my writing. He deserves time to blow off steam. 

6. Venting about the relationship to others. 
-Do I do that on here? I hope not. When I get mad at him and tell my dad, he always says the same thing, "HE is your husband, Em. You chose him so go and work it out with him." 

7. Being jealous of your partner's success. 
-I love his success. He is the alpha daddy who takes care of business and provides for his family. I would never want to do what he does. He loves his job and making big deals. I would hate that life and I would hate the pressure of keeping everything going like he does. He is a hard worker and I love the look he gets when I tell him how proud I am of him. He beams.
