100 things about my significant other (part I)

I dedicate this post to those who seeked love and found it, to those who seek love, to those who lost hope.
May this restore your faith.

Every time I blog, I share my entries with my s.o.

Every time, he complains that I don't blog enough about him.

This post is dedicated to him, 100%.

I will make a 100 things list, but in 2 parts.

1. My s.o.'s name is Dave. It suits him perfectly.
2. He is my significant other, lover, best friend and confident.
3. He is one head shorter then me.
4. He is the king of procrastination.
5. His heart could hold the world.
6. The first time I told him I loved him, I was a teen-ager. He said I was too tall.
7. Our first conversation was about me talking too much.
   
8. Dave is brilliant, but was never an A student because he couldn't hand in his papers on time.
9. He nevertheless wrote a brilliant comparison paper about Stendahl's Le rouge et le Noir and Tristan et Iseult.
10. Dave could never make a carreer out of it, but he would be a great carpet salesman.
11. As we speak, Dave is doing the dishes. For the first time in 3 days. It's his only shore.
    
12. When I went on a 6 months fellowship in Senegal, he spent all his vacations and lots of money to spend 2 weeks with me.
13. Dave is allergic to vacuum cleaners. I have to vacuum when he's not home.
14. Dave laughs at all my jokes. Even when they're truly awful.
15. I bought my first car because of Dave. He was studying and living 300km away from home.
    
16. Dave is the oldest of 2. He never had a sister.
17. He constantly claims to be asocial. Yet, he is rarely seen alone.
18. He has very strong ties to his family.
19. I once drove 6 hours to and back in one night, just to be with him.
20. Dave lives with me. He still buys me flowers once a month and takes me out all the time.
    
21. He likes to think a lot before deciding things. That drives me insane.
22. When we were in high school, his nickname was ''Lutin des bois" (Wood Sprite). It really sounds much less ridiculous in English.
    
23. He keeps on saying I should teach him to blog. Everytime I remind him, he decides it's not the time for it.
24. One night, we found a woman in crisis in the street. He suggested we try to help her, and actually carried her from the car to the hospital.
25. Though he was raised in a comfortably wealthy family, he feels compation for the world and care little for profit.
26. He has capitalistic tendencies though.
    
27. He has never been physically violent toward anyone that I know.
28. In 12 years that I've known him, I saw him yell twice. I must admit I was pushing my luck both times.
29. If he could, Dave would spend his whole life without doing any chore anywhere.
    
30. Though he was never baptized, he considers Jesus to be a great philosopher and patron.
31. He has the utmost respect for Gandhi and Bouddha.
    
32. His dream job would be to teach philosophy to children.
33. His nightmare position would be housekeeper.
34. Dave's shortest job was as a material handler. He was doing ok but hated the schedule. He stayed there 3 weeks.
35. He has been talking about going to work in Thailand for the last 3 years.
    
36. He is addicted to coffee, chesse and sherbet.
37. In 12 years that I've known him, I saw him drunk twice. He was really sweet and quite funny.
38. Silence with him is never uncomfortable.
39. He hates pop music in general, and heavy metal and rap in particular.
    
40. He is the most forgetful person I know (aside for myself).
41. He keeps on reminding me of stuff.
42. He is always considerate and respectful of me, and my rythm.
43. When we were 20, we dated. He left without saying goddbye because he thought I was miserable with him. I cried for months.
44. If I were to choose one person on which to be alone on an island with, it would be him.
45. I trust Dave with my life, but not with my crystal glasses.
    
46. He loves to play chess.
47. He taught me to love Mozart's requiem.
48. He is the reason I beleive in soul mates and reincarnation.
49. After I'd been gone away for 6 months, he asked me to live with him.
50. He commited to me despite my recent job conditions.

I will sorely miss him when I leave.
