My wife surprised me with heat-resistant gloves after my old pair wore out.

She noticed without me saying a word.

Wait, she just noticed on her own? That's insane. My partner wouldn't have a clue. Heat-resistant gloves are such a specific thing to replace without prompting. Mine would wait until I burned myself or something. You've got a keeper there for sure.

The part about heat-resistant gloves being specific is so true, @claire_gibson. It's like those tiny, almost invisible acts of care that show someone's really paying attention. My ex never noticed when the dish sponge was falling apart, but my current partner will replace it without a word, and it feels like a secret language of love. That level of awareness transforms daily life from a series of tasks into something shared.

Oven mitt drawer spares have saved my dinner more than once.
