Couples Share 40 Things They Do That Aren't Normal But Are Very Wholesome As an interracial couple, the wifey and I like to play a little game called “you people “.

When we’re out in public and engaged in conversation, one of us will spontaneously and loudly ask the other: “WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU PEOPLE?!” To which the other must respond as sincerely as possible, “Well, you know___” and then fill in the blank with a rando factoid about them, like: “people who sleep with socks on.”

This list is for things that aren’t normal so it makes sense. But beyond not being normal, I’m not sure it’s even healthy. A fight should be a fight and it should be allowed and it should be okay to be angry and show it and not want to touch and cuddle. That’s all perfectly fine and healthy.

Couples Share 40 Things They Do That Aren't Normal But Are Very Wholesome What started as a simple whistle to get the others attention has turned into a full blown second language consisting of nothing but whistles. ‘Hello’ is a simple high tone whistle followed by a slightly lower tone whistle. To properly say ‘hello’ back you must respond with an even higher pitched whistle sequence or a slightly lower pitched sequence.

‘Warning:danger or distress’ is three high pitched whistles. A sad whistle is one that starts high then quickly goes to a low tone.

We’ve legit had phone conversations where we whistle at each other and laugh for 10 minutes. We thought we were insane (still are but) until realizing there are cultures out there that whistle poetry to each other and that whistling may have been the first way peeps communicated with each other.

I am a very extroverted woman and need my existence to be acknowledged every once in awhile. My wife is extremely introverted so conversations constantly are a big no no. So we make kissing noises around the house every now and then as a kind of “I love you, everything’s fine over here- you ok?” A kissy back and we both continue doing our own thing in silence. No kissy back means trying a louder kissy noise, waiting 5 seconds, and wandering out to make sure everything is ok.

Everyone gets what they want. I feel like I’m being paid attention to, she’s not overburdened by talking with me or doing something together, but we still are connected.

Couples Share 40 Things They Do That Aren't Normal But Are Very Wholesome We've been married for 32 years. We're both professionals in career with kids no longer at home. Yet for our entire marriage whenever one of us travels we do something special for the one traveling. My wife's method is to sneak into my luggage and leave little love notes and comments and requests for a hot call on colored cards. I'm talking I’ll pull on a dress shirt and discover a little card in the pocket that says, “call me at 11:00 my time hot stuff”. The people at my work where I travel to the same location now laugh when I reach into a coat pocket, pull one out and read it. Or they see the collection in the pocket of my back pack. I travel 8-12 times a year so this is some work.

My approach is a little different. I write one very romantic or passionate letter or story or poem. Or I sketch something I found beautiful and add a small note. She has saved them over the years so not only one per time she travels but Mother’s Day or birthday, or sometimes random desire to let her know I love her. It's now a small book.

Also, we always end the day in a call together. Even if I’m in Mumbai and one of us has to stay up until 1:00am or get up at 4:am, we always tell each other we love them and good night.

She still tells me the most romantic thing ever was one time I typed two pages of reasons why I loved her then cut them up into tiny pink strips (numbered of course) and then went through all of her personal stuff and hide them in places only she would find them. Like one inside a pocket in every jacket. One inside her thick and thin gloves. One per drawer in her dresser. One in her makeup kit suitcase. And so on. It took her more than seven months to find them all. She said it made her day to find one four months on, just stumble across it. I did get this from the author of a book called 101 Passionate Nights. So I can't take credit for the idea. But it was a total surprise to her. Those two pages of taped-together comments are also in her book of love notes.

Yes, she tells me I’m more romantic and mushy than she is.

Couples Share 40 Things They Do That Aren't Normal But Are Very Wholesome We have online dates. Which doesn’t sound to strange but let me explain.

It’s a LDR so it’s hard to go on dates when we are apart. So instead, every now and again, we get pizza, have some wine and will sit and eat and talk all with cameras on and pretend we are in a restaurant (like actually talk about our own rooms like it’s a restaurant).

Then we either watch a movie together and talk about it, or just get caught up with drinking and chatting, or we will play some sort of game together. Occasionally, sex stuff happens too, but usually on the date nights we just like our date time and being together (or as close to that as we can get)

Our friends think it’s weird that we do that, so I guess it’s a good thing to put here? I don’t think it’s weird though, I just wanna spend time with someone I love when he’s in a different country.

Alright this will take some explaining but me and my husband have a game we call business business. I can’t fully remember how it came about but the goal is to fully and completely clasp the other persons right hand in yours and shake it twice while repeating “business business”. If the other person can get their hand free or shout “business business” at the same time it’s a failed attempt. We don’t keep score but the last person who got in a successful handshake is the winner until they are dethroned. So what started as a little inside joke has spiraled into a full competition with such notable wins as... at my uncles funeral. While reaching for an offered water bottle (we live in the desert) And in the middle of any and all arguments. It’s gotten so bad that anytime either of us try to hold hands we both have a momentary standoff to make sure it’s not a ploy.

When we eat delicious food together we will make yummy food noises or do a little wiggle dance. Sometimes we forget that this isnt a normal thing and will catch ourselves enjoying food to the fullest in public.

We try to scare one another by hiding behind doors and jumping out. The other day I parked down the street, sprinted home and hid in the closet. She thoroughly enjoys a good startle. Usually 5 seconds of freak out followed by 5 mins of us laughing. I’m much better at the game than her. She doesn’t know this, but I walk around the house in full stealth mode even when I’m confident she’s out.

We make [baby] sloth noises at each other [less of the squeaky and more of the ehh! ones lol] as a kinda sorta 'check in' with each other like 'hey, you okay? All good? Good.'

We can be in different rooms around our place and as long as the other makes a sloth noise back, you know they're good. We've also occasionally used it to find each other when we've lost each in other a store/etc.

Over time I've forgotten it's not exactly normal and one time we 'slothed' at each other when in company of other friends at a gathering and everyone was just like 'wtf was that?!'

My husband is a geologist. I'm a biologist. So nerdy is our love language. We love learning and challenging each other, and how complementary our fields of interests are. Our honeymoon (as yound college students, so veeery low budget)? Visiting the largest astronomical observatory in North East America, and a 100 year old copper mine the next day, obviously! And what do we do when an earthquake shakes us out of bed at 5 AM? Hop on the dial-up Internet (was early 2000s), get the closest sismograph readings, estimate the speed of P and S waves through the different types of rock formation, triangulate the epicenter, and sit in front of TV with a bowl of fereal until the news come on to check if we were right. We were. Never a dull moment, 24 years down, looking forward to every one left to go! 😁

I started off as an Army Wife. There were times my husband would have to do 24 hour CQ duty. We lived an hour away from the base, so when his shift was near ending, I'd rent a hotel room and grab some food so he could eat and sleep right away. Funny thing was, he would fall asleep eating a chicken nugget and when I'd say "Chuck!" His eyes would snap open and he'd rapidly start chewing again. After a few attempts at eating, he'd sleep until late afternoon while I went and did errands on the base. Then we'd head home.

At night, I won't turn on a light when we go into another room, when my wife follows me and turns on the light I yell 'SURPRISE!' and pucker my lips, I won't move until I get a kiss. sometimes she makes me wait for my kiss. And yes, this includes when I go to the bathroom.

I feel less weird about my own marriage now. We've been married since we were 16. We used to hold hands while sleeping but people found out and gave us sh*t so we quit. We speak in references tho. Family Guy, American Dad, Futurama, and Bob's Burgers. Etc. Lol. It's so crazy now we can say one word to each other and understand exactly what the other person is referring to and why it relates to the situation. Useful around family and friends to have a secret convo. We've never had anyone crack our code and that makes it more special and fun for us! We also kiss 3X every time and always sleep in the same positions every night. Oh and when we feed our pup every day at 4pm, we yell "Dog Fooood" like an air raid siren repeatedly cuz she loves it. :D We get called weird for fake bickering in the grocery store. But we get laughs for sure and we have a blast. Makes it less stressful bc I get anxiety around people.

My boyfriend and I have the “kissy rule”. No matter what we are doing or if we are in the middle of a fight or mad at each other, whenever one of makes a kiss/smooch noise twice in a row the other has to drop everything and kiss the other person. You cannot wait more than 3 seconds to do it which sometimes means sprinting across the room to your partner. It’s great to diffuse tension during arguments and makes for a good trick when out with people. One of us will inevitably say “hey, watch this” make the kissy noises and then comment “I have trained him/her well”. Together for 6 years and have never ever broken the rule.

One of the biggest things in our relationship is "Always Kiss Me Goodnight". He gets up at 0:00 dark thirty & I - don't. That kiss goodnight could easily be the last kiss we ever have, so it's important to make sure we do it. Even if we're arguing or not having the best of days, we make sure to kiss each other goodnight.

Our thing is our chihuahuas are trained to know mom and dad. One will come up to me and "ask" for a treat to which I say go ask your dad and they will go and sit in his lap until he gets up and get them a treat...he can do the same thing and say go ask mom if they approach him first...the catch is the second one asked must get the treat or they get confused lol

My spouse and i have 2: a) we have a small competition on who can lick the others' nose first in the day. there's an accompanying "First Lick of the Day~" dance. b) when we were dating, we would alternate who paid for the date. it sorta continued after we got married, but when I got them a wallet with an easy access pocket for their debit card, they'd be able to get their card out first before me. i recently got a wallet with an easy access pocket, so now it's a race >:3
