My partner does this, and it never occurred to me that it was how he showed me love, but wow, are you right.” —u/biffjerkyy —u/glirs_rock “The morning after I was almost admitted into the psych ward, my partner said, ‘I failed you. I was supposed to look for the signs. They’ve been there for weeks.’ Now, he checks in with me daily. Since then, he’s taken the time to learn all he can about my mental illness, my childhood, etc. I’m so incredibly proud, and excited to say we’re getting married in August.” —u/gnarlybetty —u/FloofBallsofAnxiety —u/daelite —u/LeilaDFW “I think this one is really important. Many things can make you feel loved, but one thing I’ve noticed that people in love do is, without being requested, break their own usual boundaries for the people they love. I know it’s healthy to put up boundaries, and having your partner respect them is the ideal, but I have always ignored my own boundaries in moments of need for the people I love and find when they do the same for me a very clear sign of this.” —u/Allalilacias —u/MrsAlwaysWrighty
