My husband has many fine qualities. He’s smart, he’s sweet, he’s loyal, he’s opinionated, he believes in me, he cares about animals, he’s trustworthy and genuine and sincere, he’s hott (that’s right, he rates two t’s), he's doing the dishes while I write this, and he has the most beautiful blue eyes I’ve ever seen. But what I love best about him is his sense of humor. No one, and I do mean no one, can make me laugh the way that he does.
And so I say to you, Internet, that if you’re looking for dating advice, I firmly believe that finding a man (or a woman) who shares your sense of humor should be very high on your list. Tonight alone John has had me laughing so hard I ended up crying at least twice. No, wait, three times. I’m not sure the jokes would be funny to anyone outside the two of us, but really, that’s the point – they don’t need to be. So if we have a (hypothetical) scenario where I end up frantically quacking at him as a codeword to remind him that he doesn’t want to rise to the bait and quarrel with his sister, or if we construct a storyline for the 4th season of Prison Break where they become the new A Team (because, seriously, that show has gone beyond willful suspension of disbelief for fun’s sake into “let’s see what preposterous direction they take this in next.” And yet I’m still watching) and we’re the only ones laughing, that’s cool. Because we are both laughing, and with every chuckle, giggle and snort, I love him just a little bit more.
Awwww, that's so sweet. I like that he rates two tts - it's an important factor in relationship decisions, that second t!!!
That's awesome. My husband and I have private/inside jokes that make us both laugh and laugh. Actually, my husband has a similar sense of humor as my dad which skews more corny and puny than actually funny. But he does make me laugh every day.
I got the warm fuzzies reading that --- definitely some excellent advice!
