Tertia on Marko

I decided I should return the favour, and sent Marko this email. 

do you want me to do one on you?

This was his reply

No thank you. I know I am perfect.

I decided to do one any way.

1.  what am i like as a father:
you are loving, caring father who provides for his children, when the kids can talk they are going to tell all their friends that their father is like superman, cos he can do any thing

2.  what do you love about me
so many things, its difficult to say just a few.  but here are some that come to mind:  i love that you are so generous, that you are so strong.  that you are so ethical. i love that you love animals so much, even if it drives me crazy sometimes that you are always rescuing creatures all over the place.  i love that you don’t take my shit, i love that you wont allow me to totally dominate every thing. i love how strong you are, inside and out.  i love your laugh and that you laugh at such silly things. i love that you like my parents so much, you know how important that is to me. i love that you sit and talk to my dad for hours.  i love that you tease my mom. i love that you stuck by me, through all the shit we have gone through, that you always supported me, even when i was at my most obsessed, most depressed.  i love that you did the giving sperm in the bottle thing so many times, even though you hated it.  i love that you never once told me we had to stop trying, even though i spent all our money and it took us five years. i love that you never let me carry heavy things, that you always carry the shopping bags, that you do all the outside chores.  i love that you treat me like a lady, even if that is an unpopular way today, i still love it.  i love you just the way you are, you are perfect for me.

3.  what do you not like about me / my flaws (sure this will be a v short answer)
i have to say that i don’t like your pessimistic attitude sometimes, that you believe that bad things will happen. and i don’t like your suspicious nature. yes some people are horrible, but not all people.  i also don’t like the way you take bad luck so personally, bad luck is just that, bad luck.  shit can happen to any one.  and yes, we've had a lot of shit happen to us, but bad things just do happen sometimes, look how blessed we are in other areas.  then, on a lighter note, i don’t like your stubbornness, when you pretend not to hear me calling you, when you don’t talk, when you sulk for no apparent reason, or when you wont tell me why you are cross.  when you watch TV while i am trying to have a serious conversation with you.  oh and when you walk outside barefoot and then want to lie on the bed.  wash those dirty feet of yours first.

4.  which words do you love hearing me say
i love you.  you are gorgeous and divine.  buy that if you want.  lets chat (a woman can dream).  this is what i want for supper .........

5.  which words do you hate hearing me say
i just bought ....(plasma tv, new microwave, new suit etc), don't ask how much it was, 'i don't know, you decide'.

6.  complete the sentence:  marko is g__________ and d___________.
marko is gorgeous and divine

Ah, my man and me - swap a few things between us and we look the same as you two!
Made me giggle and smile. Thanks for that.

I'm loving this manic phase of yours, GO! I love that he treats you so well - exactly as it should be dahling. And vice-versa. This: "even if it drives me crazy sometimes that you are always rescuing creatures all over the place" - well, as it turns out, when we finally get to meet I now know whom I'll be spending most of my time talking to. Marko, my muscled, boerish twin [please note Afrikaans/Engl pun, simply mahvelous].[And thank you. Really.]

[solcito]

It is so wonderful to witness the love that you share and how perfect you are for each other! Thanks!

Awwww.

I love those gentlemanly qualities too, T. I know it's not popular, but it makes ME feel good when E treats me like a princess. If you can't be a princess at home, where can you be one?

[Crystal]

Awww, you two sound very happy together :)
I hate to think about what my DH Mads would say about me in such a questionaire :D

[Orange]

Awww! Maybe he's no Paul, but a Marko is a very fine thing to be indeed.

[Maggaggie]

Tertia, how very romantic! I think maybe my husband and I should try this. Get a few sparks going. Maybe get lucky tonight. : )

I love the things that you love about Marko. And that they are so important to you.
