Guys, what did your wife/fiance do as a girlfriend that made you say "I want to marry her"?

My wife and I were having a heart-to-heart last night and she asked what made me decide to propose after we had been living together already and being together for three years.

I told her it was a combination of a few things, like seeing her not showing interest in other guys, her wanted to do most of the traditional female role stuff, her being a good dog-mom to our pups and her wanting to have kids. I kept to myself the whole "you're sexually open with me despite having almost zero experience before me" part but I personally know that was a big factor too. Just gross to say out loud.

But with saying that, it made me wonder what other guys are motivated by and if my motivations are typical or unusual, in modern times. I'd love to hear some other perspectives.

When I was in the hospital, she visited every day even when I was in a coma or hallucinating when I came out of it.

Bro, this is beautiful. Any sane man would have done the same.

Ah, the sweet mysteries of love! Us relationship coaches say every love story is as unique as a fingerprint. It’s your wife’s blend of loyalty, nurturing spirit, and being open to personal growth with you that seals the deal. Magic happens when the heart and mind align. It’s beautiful to celebrate love in all its quirky glory. No need to compare, just cherish what makes your relationship wonderfully yours.💕

You should have made this a guy only post.

Why do you believe that? Personally, I like girls being able to engage on the comments. It's creates a more open dialog on the topics. And if any girls come to make abusive comments, they can just be removed by me or the commenter, so there's not much risk of bad people causing conflict.

Just to know

What's the relevance of the knowledge though? There has to be a theory you're trying to work through.
