When a Man Loves a Woman (3)

It is early Saturday morning and I don't feel very well. Probably something I ate. I am trying to be quiet so I go into the living room and turn on the TV low as not to disturb MG. He comes into the room a couple of hours later to check on me. He gets me a cup of coffee and asks what he can do for me. I seem okay for now, but in about an hour my bad feeling returns. I request a med from the drugstore and off MG goes to find it. He goes to 3 drugstores and returns with the med. He is so great, he will do anything to help me feel better. I am so blessed. 

I don't want to look back, but I need to give you a comparison. My ex-husband was not nurturing or seemed to care much about my comfort and well being. When I was ill or had morning sickness from pregnancies, he was not supportive. I would struggle through on my own. Especially when he would be out of town for weeks or months. 

So to be with a man who truly cares for me, thinks about me, loves me through and through is a new experience for me. Actually I have to be careful for what I ask or he will immediately take care of me and the situation. I don't have to be control all the time and it is a nice relief. When we were first together, I got a stomach virus and he held my head when I was over the toilet and brought me anything to help me feel better. Recently I had minor surgery and he was there by my side for the several days of recovery. I just can't say it enough how much this means to me. He always says I need to let him know when I don't feel well or need his help, he is always reassuring me that he is here for me and ready to do anything for me anytime. I love that. I am slowly letting him do for me. There is a small bag left from my previous life and it is getting smaller every day.

We have been together almost a year and as you can see on my home page, we are planning our wedding for later this year. I am very blessed and grateful to God for bringing me to this man. 

Trouble is part of your life, and if you don't share it, you don't give the person who loves you enough chance to love you enough.  ~Dinah Shore
