This isn’t a big deal, but it was small and cute so I thought I’d share.

I started seeing a new guy and he asked me to come to his house for a dinner date. The plan was for him to cook steaks and I would make the sides. He was a little nervous and trying very hard to do well as a pretty inexperienced cook. He even used a marinade for the first time ever. It was really cute! Turns out he had been practicing for a couple of days to prepare for this date.

I thought in my head that perhaps he was cooking them too long on one side, but I trusted him and said nothing. Turns out when he flipped it over that it was completely charcoal black. He was disappointed, so I just hugged him and told him that it was totally okay.

He instantly went to solving the problem and said he’d just take me out to dinner instead. He figured out what kind of food and made the quick decision.

The rest of the night, he made me feel so completely adored and cherished. It’s like he couldn’t get enough of me. He was even more confident in acting like a leader after this. I don’t think I can even put into words how much of a princess he made and has continued to make me feel. It’s lovely💕

It really affirmed to me that men just need us to trust them. I could’ve been critiquing his cooking or trying to boss him around like a mother, but instead I shutup and trusted him.
