Do you feel lucky to have your S/O?

Asked by Headhurts (4505points) August 16th, 2013

I’m just sat here waiting for him to come home from work, and I was just thinking how very lucky I am to have him. I am not very attractive and he incredibly handsome. I value every minute I have with him.

Do you feel lucky to have yours, or are they lucky to have you?

MIlo here: Not particularly. Any obedient drone could perform the same services and be less annoying and needy.

Very. She pretty much radically changed my life and direction for the better.

anniereborn's avatar

extremely! we have been together for 8 years. I can see us living out the rest of our days together.

cookieman's avatar

Absolutely. She could have done much better than me.

zenvelo's avatar

Even though we parted because of her moving for work, my ex and I are extremely close still, and I often tell her how lucky I am to have her in my life.

rojo's avatar

Very, very lucky indeed.

I need to tell her so.

KNOWITALL's avatar

Absolutely! He just has a beautiful heart, I’m truly blessed.

Some people think I could have done better than a hometown boy doing manual labor, but they have no idea of the person he really is, and how much his love and positive outlook brighten each and every day of my life. :)

JLeslie's avatar

Yes I do. I love spending time with him.

I feel lucky to be RID of my ex SO. 10 years and no regrets….divorce was the best thing I ever did!
Now he has a new wife to torture with his obnoxious, OCD, anal, asshole personality and I’m a free woman. lol

ucme's avatar

No, luck doesn’t come into it, I deserve a fantastic wife & that’s what i’ve got.
The same applies with her in respect of me, we’re an awesome couple & were just meant to be.

ZEPHYRA's avatar

Yes, luck was on my side in this field of life. Could not have been luckier even if all the luck in the world had been given to me only!

LornaLove's avatar

Yes! He is my peace in a storm, the voice of reason in my most mental moments. He is kind, loving, caring, giving, funny, sweet, cute and we just ‘get’ one another.

Kairi's avatar

Yes. I’m not sure what we would do without one another

KaY_Jelly's avatar

I was very lucky to have a chance to find my person. My one true love. He loved, honored and cherished me and I did him. Best relationship/friendship I had with anyone other than God.
Hold on and cherish every moment and step of the way of what you hold dear because time usually runs out and not so nicely at the same time like we, well at least I wish it would. And what ends up happening is you must just move forward even though you do not want to and it hurts like hell to do it, or you can watch life go by.
It really depends on the persons ability to cope in a stressful situation.

This question was designed to make me face the fact I have no SO wasn’t it? You madame play dirty, and this is the start of a life long feud. Good day.

hearkat's avatar

I consider myself lucky to have met him, and fortunate that he thinks I’m special and treats me like royalty.

Blondesjon's avatar

Yep. I would be jail or dead if it wasn’t for her.

Judi's avatar

I’m not the only one who has said I’m a real live Cinderella story. I know it’s not very “liberated” of me but in all ways I hit the jackpot when I married my hubby.
Yes he’s a good provider, but he’s also my best friend, one of the smartest people I know and after 23 years of marriage he still adores me…even more than then. He also continues to amaze me. Sometimes I have to pinch myself.

spiritual's avatar

Yes I feel extremely lucky that the most incredible girl I’ve ever met shares her life with me. I appreciate and adore such true love, as I appreciate and adore her. I know not everyone is as lucky to have what I have, so I am VERY grateful!!

Simone_De_Beauvoir's avatar

I am sorry you do not feel very attractive and think your partner is more so
Yes, I feel very lucky for my partner. I left my ex husband to be with him, he allowed me to grow and to succeed in so many ways, I am constantly learning about life and its angles from him and from our relationship. He is infinitely capable of evolution, something I found incredibly attractive and I find him, as a specimen of humanity, incredibly attractive and intriguing. I find that what we have is rare and feel blessed for it. He is also just really good at many practical things that I am not good at and is an incredible parent. I really can’t say enough about him, I think.

Who would answer “no” to this?

jonsblond's avatar

I’ve spent my entire adult life with my best friend. I feel very lucky and I’m happy to share my life with him.

Blackberry's avatar

Yep, it’s hard to find a butt like that.

augustlan's avatar

My husband and I talk about how lucky we are to have found each other fairly regularly. It still kind of stuns us, honestly!

Dr_Lawrence's avatar

Like @augustlan said, my wife and I are amazed and delighted that we found each other. It will be 10 years in December that we are married. I wish we could live together on the same side of the Canada/US border. Don’t ask! It is a long sad story. We still love each other so much.

What does luck have to do with it?

We worked damn hard at our relationship from start to now. Yep, we get along great, have a fantastic relationship and an awesome little guy together. But luck? no. This wasn’t handed to me by Providence.

Katniss's avatar

@Dr_Lawrence Enquiring minds want to know! You can’t just say “don’t ask” and expect people not to ask. Sheesh!!

Simone_De_Beauvoir's avatar

@Seek_Kolinahr I guess by luck, I mean to have met him in the first place. The rest, I agree with you.

downtide's avatar

Incredibly, unbelievably lucky. It’s extremely rare for a spouse to stay when their partner has a sex-change.

ucme's avatar

@Seek_Kolinahr More or less mirrors my answer, I guess we answered @livelaughlove21‘s strange secondary question then.

hearkat's avatar

@Seek_Kolinahr and @Simone_De_Beauvoir that’s why I worded my response the way I did. Luck was needed for our paths to cross when we lived 90 miles apart. Good fortune happened that through our friendship we discovered that we had the potential for so much more. Everything else since them, we get full credit for.

ademinue's avatar

I have my SO and he’s a huge dbag and he is a total pain in soft parts of my body so I enjoy his presence 50% of time and the other 50% of time I suffer

Judi's avatar

@ademiune, sounds miserable
