That love thing

Love can't really be described in words without using a metaphor, simile, or action. Here's a list of stuff that is love, to me.

• helping me wash the dishes, without me having to ask (why? because then I know my partner cares enough about me to get off his ass and help me)
  
• that goofy feeling I get right about where my ribs come together (fuck the heart)
• thinking your love's "flaws" are adorable
• when in a conversation, you listen, instead of just waiting to talk
• ability to compromise
• being able to "get down" with your partner despite mutual morning breath
  
• silence is not uncomfortable
