1.This couple that loves small treats.

2.This couple that has mandatory hang-out time.
"Making dinner is mandatory hang-out time. She cooks while I’m in charge of music/entertainment. We talk, laugh, cry, dance, taste the food, etc." —u/FruitSnackEater
3.This couple that plays games while cooking.
"My husband and I do something similar. He sits at the bar while we pass the bong back and forth while I cook and jeopardy is playing on the TV. Easily one of my favorite parts of my day." —u/sp000kysoup

5.This adorable long-distance couple who exchange their travel journals.

I always enjoy reading what he has written and I can't wait until we meet again." —u/TheUselessNugget
