Answer :

I purposely bother my husband all the time. I cuddle next to him when I know he’d probably prefer his own space. I call his name to get his attention when I don’t necessarily have much to say. I keep the above up, because I believe they are what I call “cariño” things. Cariño means with caring/love/heart. If I died tomorrow (God forbid) I’ve convinced myself he would miss those thing. Ha! Both things I do for connection. He does like to cuddle, it’s not like he hates it altogether, I just sometimes have bad timing. Then there are things I do that I don’t want to purposely bother him, but I know what I’m doing will bother him. I watch the TV in the living, or even just have the light on in the living room, when he’s trying to go to sleep in the bedroom. The rooms are close together, and if just knows I’m in there doing something he has trouble sleeping. It’s ridiculous. He says he’s worried I’ll fall asleep with the light or TV left on. So what?! I fall asleep out on the sofa maybe twice a month, and usually wake up a couple of hours later, and then go to the bedroom. I do stay up later than him most nights, but not all nights. Anyway, I don’t care that he’s neurotic about worrying that the light might stay on all night. It’s an LED lightbulb, it doesn’t waste much electricity, don’t worry.
