Love is....

* Eating the burnt piece of toast and giving them the good one.
* Not wanting to speak to them but finding yourself dialing their number anyway.
* Going out on double dates with their lame/rude/stupid/boring friends.
* Getting so close to them that the only way you can be closer is to be in them.
* Apologizing first, even when it WAS their fault.
* Telling them that they have that morning crust in their eyes and offer to get it out.
* Wanting the best for them…even if it’s not you.
* Making them chicken soup though you’re sick too.
* Telling them you love them regardless of how they feel towards you.
* Comfortable
* Not caring if the toilet seat was up or down.
* Praying together
* Putting their name in every song about love
* Getting up a 3 in the morning to turn on the air/heater for them.
* Seeing the best looking woman/man on earth and not even wondering “what if”
* Accepting that they have crusty feet and chapped lips in the winter.
* Secure
* Hurting because they are hurt
* Forgetting what the word “I” even sound like when making plans.
* Not thinking about the crazy phone bill you’ll have when they’re out of town and ya’ll are on the phone all night.
* Putting your hand on their leg/hair,etc…just so ya’ll can be touching at all times.
* Picking up their snot rag
* Driving 45 minutes upstate just to get a hug and see their smile.
* Thinking about what they would think.
* Eating their “favorite dish” even though it makes you have the “runs”.
* Seeing your future in their eyes
* Listening to their point of view even you KNOW you’re right.
* Calling and spending 10 minutes in their voicemail box erasing and re-recording yourmessage in order to say all the right things.
* Not bringing up their short comings during every argument.
* Humble
* Comparing every other potential love to them
* Not being able to get work done because you’re too busy thinking about how you can make them smile
* Patient
* Holding them tighter when your ex flirts with you in the mall.
* Telling them the truth, even when you know they’ll flip out.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not selfseeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
