Have you ever, or are you now, in a relationship with someone who doesn't speak your first language?

I have just started seeing a german guy. He speaks excellent English but is still perfecting things, I speak next to no German… He says he doesn’t mind my lack of German knowledge, but surely it must be annoying for him to never be able to speak to me in his native language?
I am trying to learn however, languages are not my forte – I so far can count to 10 and say who I am and my age!
Do you find it annoying to have to talk to a loved one in a language that you may not be able to express what you mean as easily as would be in your native language? Or do you find that communicating to a loved one in a different language is the best way to learn it and can increase your ability to understand people better through body language and the way things are said rather than what is being said?
