21 Creepy Things That Are Totally Normal in a Relationship

When you're in a serious relationship, you tend to get pretty close and personal with your partner. From inside your cozy little relationship bubble, all the things you do with each other probably feel normal and cute. But if you guys were just regular people, not dating each other, all these very mundane couple behaviors would be creepy AF.

​1. Knowing exactly where your partner is at all times, like he's on house arrest and you're his parole officer or something. ​​Bonus points if you guys added each other on Find My Friends, so you can literally just open your phone and see that he's at the gym after work, like he always is.

​2. Watching your boyfriend sleep peacefully next to you because you like early mornings and he doesn't. ​Sure, you could go in the other room and work in there, but why do that when he looks so cute and nice when he's sleeping?

3. Realizing your partner knows when you are and aren't on your period. ​Get you a man who both gets your love for period sex and remembers to grab tampons at the store when you run out and it's ~your time~. 

4. Calling your S.O. literally everything but his actual name. ​If anyone else called you "honey bug," you would freak TF out, but when he says it, it's sooooo cute.

5. Buying him an incredibly thoughtful gift, because six months ago he mentioned, in passing, that he's always wanted to learn to make homemade sushi. ​So you get him a DIY sushi kit and he obviously loves it, because it's not only something he wants, but he probably forgot he ever even mentioned it. 

6. Saying things like, "OMG, your face is SO CUTE, I could eat it!" ​Creepy when Hannibal says it, cute when you say it.

7. Picking random pieces of lint or stray eyelashes off your boyfriend in public. ​They say monkeys groom each other to show affection, so why can't people do this also?

8. Pointing out when he has a booger in his nose and then helping him make sure he got it out. ​What's the saying about "you can pick your friends, you can pick your nose..."?

9. Calling him, like, 12 times in a row because you know he's not ignoring you; he just has a tendency to take hourlong showers.​ Having a million missed calls from anyone other than your partner would make you think there's a national crisis happening. But from him, it feels attentive and sorta sweet. Just as long as there aren't any voicemails.

10. Reaching over to his plate and eating whatever he ordered, because he always gets the thing you secretly want.You definitely shouldn't eat off other people's plates, unless that other person is someone you regularly make out with. Then it's fine.

11. Texting or calling his parents (or other relatives) on the phone just to have a casual conversation about him. ​Not even my best friends do this, but a boyfriend? Sure, whatever. Normal.

12. Knowing that he always poops in the morning right after his morning coffee. ​Even better if you know what his farts smell like and can spot them in a crowd and call him out on them.

13. Posting TBT photos of him as a little kid, instead of pictures of yourself. ​Not that you weren't cute, but OMG, that pic of him in the striped overalls with a bowl cut is the literal cutest thing and everyone needs to know about it.

14. Walking up to him and fixing his hair in public, like you're his personal glam squad. ​His hair just ​looks better​ when it's a little tousled, and you can help him achieve this ~look.

15. Knowing all his measurements for every clothing item. ​So that when you see a pair of pants he just has to have, you don't even have to text and be like, "Hey, what size pants do you wear at J. Crew again?"

16. Helping him tweeze his eyebrows. ​Because you know so much more about how to pluck and unlock your boldest brow potential than he does.

17. Knowing all the passwords to all of his accounts. ​And even if you don't know the password, you can probably figure it out because you know the names of every pet he's ever had and all those other secret password options he might use.

18. Being able to perfectly duplicate his signature, you know, just in case. ​Because he sends you out to pick things up with his credit card all the time, and vice versa, it was just easier for you to figure out his signature. 

19. Helping pop each other's bacne. ​A couple that pops together stays together.

20. Tracking his flight anytime he goes somewhere, just so you can make sure he landed safe and sound. ​And having the tracking map open on the side of your computer screen, so you can literally watch him fly across the country for that work trip while you're at work.

21. Knowing what his order is at all your favorite restaurants. ​It's fine because he also knows yours. It makes those impromptu lazy nights in with takeout so much easier.
