We work the same hours at the same place and still get excto.see each other throughout the day and after work. When every day/night feels like a sleepover! We're in our late thirties and have been together for years! :)

He (28M) just gets me (27F). I struggle sometimes with finding my words especially when i get flustered which results in sentences like "hey, do you want the... the... thing with the... thing from the place with the stuff" and i get really really frustrated because I'm used to being quite eloquent but it's a side effect from my ptsd and it gets worse-- he has gotten used to my leaps in logic so manages to fill in the blanks 80% of the time. He's patient with me, doesn't get frustrated and makes light of it. When I'm down, he drops everything to cheer me up, even when money is tight, something small like getting me a little sundae to make me smile. When he's down I am just there for him and do whatever I can to cheer him up. We listen to each other but can sit in silence for hours. Usually silence is weird but with him-- it's like we recharge by being near each other. As an introvert, recharging with someone is weird but nice. We got each other into different show types so we watch tv and movies together. He is very into his bro-time, likes hanging with his friends and I'm good with that. They are into league but, even though I never suggest it, he decides to hang with me all day, like today-- Even though i kept to myself, just playing minecraft on my own, he thought that i may be a little bleh so opted not to play with his friends and instead, just sat next to me and watched me play-- I think that's what I like. Some people are oblivious or overbearing or they encourage you to change what you're doing so they can interact-- with him everything is easy-- he just wants to be there in case i need him and vice versa. We get excited for each other, sympathise with each other, we accept each other for who we are, our strengths and our weaknesses. We share everything. He's the first person I want to tell about every insignificant thing and vice versa. Hell, he calls me on lunch to make sure I saw a gif he thought was funny in discord-- that's our love language I guess. Married almost 3yrs, known him for almost 5yrs.
That's very sweet. My husband and I are both introverted. Feels nice to be alone together.
I don't have a significant other but I'd say if something good happens, or something funny and the first person you think..."I gotta tell them about this"...then yep, that's your best friend.
