The great sci-fi author Robert Heinlein wrote many outstanding books about spaceships, aliens and robots, but in addition to all of the above, I also remembered his art for one incredibly beautiful and damn correct quote. "Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own."
Just agree, this really reflects the essence of true love! And this recent collection of memories from men in relationships from the r/Ask community is dedicated to such situations: various small considerate things done by our sweethearts which we’ll remember till the end of our days. And even beyond, who knows?

When my wife and I first started dating, we were asking all of the get to know you questions. Favorite movies, favorite foods, Yada Yada. I had mentioned that one of my favorite foods was the pineapple upside down cake my grandmother made. But it was a little different from the standard recipe. My granny was the pastry chef for a resort in Virginia Beach in the 50s and 60s, and she created this recipe herself for the resort (and I guess the resort became known for it for a while). For my first birthday with her, my wife kept researching and digging until she found someone with a copy of that recipe and took it to a local baker and had my granny's pineapple upside down cake made for me. This was in 2018. My granny passed away in 2000. And she hadn't been able to cook for many years before that. Before that birthday in 2018, I hadn't had that cake since my HS graduation in 1995. Yeah, I cried with the first bite.
