We make dinosaur sounds when we’re trying to find each other. Sometimes in public. Works well, would recommend.

We laugh about the faces our cat makes when we scratch under her chin, so sometimes I’ll scratch under my husband’s chin and he’ll make the same exaggerated face she does, or vice versa.

“love you” became “wuvs” became, via autocorrect, “wolves”, became the wolf emoji

When my ex and i would watch Star Trek Enterprise, I would start screaming like Homer Simpson having night terrors whenever the theme song would start.

He’d be laughing so hard, he could barely get to the remote to skip the intro, all the while I was fake screaming basically in his face.

This thread is so wholesome ❤️ It made me smille to know how many people are loved and cherished by a significant other.

I wait in line with the regular customers and then at the end of my transaction I use the worst possible pickup lines imaginable, and it always lands a perfect ten.

You look like you come from excellent chewing stock my dear.

Oh? How do you know? A man like you probably works with cattle with those big guns.

How do you like to mooove on over to my place after work?

Oh gosh! Tucks chin. I-I don’t know…

We talk about getting things for the cats that they wouldn’t actually like, as if they would love them. Or we talk about bringing the cats along on trips they would hate, saying they’d like it.

If we’re in the middle of sexy time and he asks me to pause for a moment because he’s worried he’s gonna finish too soon, I ask him ridiculous questions about Lord of the Rings.

“Why didn’t they just fly to Mordor on the eagles?”

“Legolas is neither a Lego nor a lass. Discuss.”

Works every time.

I think other people who are more touchy would not appreciate ours but when one of us goes away and we are greeting each other, instead of hugging or kissing like normal humans we thumbs up.

My partner’s a little awkward and neither of us like public displays of affection, so he just thumbsed up me once when I was going in for a hug and I still think it’s the funniest thing.

When we were dating, my wife and I would poke our fingers in each other’s mouths when the other person started yawning. It was funny, but we got tired of it really fast and made a pact not to do it anymore.

We’ve been together for 8 years and we still nervously side-eye each other when we yawn. If we’re feeling mischievous, we will flinch towards the one yawning to scare them.

• “I’m going in the shower, do you want me to get anything while I’m there?”
• see you later, crocodile
• in a while, alligator

Instead of “love you” she says “bluv blu” so we now use two rhyming words. “Glove zoo” “dove stew”

Sometimes sent as emojis to confuse the other person

We’ll play random little “games” while trying to get to sleep, usually without actually saying anything. Thumb wars, call-and-response tapping, spelling things out by touch, and most often, doing that stupid circle game thing while the other one is trying to hold hands.

I’ll also sometimes hold my phone up to my dog’s ear and he’ll say “Moshi moshi, Puppy desu!” Very stupid but it cracks me up every time.

We pull stupid faces at each other in public because when we were dating long distance in our mutual chat group that is how we would flirt and signify something was sent via phone.
