45 years old, cohabiting couple 🌸 order, not the reverse!? Night maiden heart rustling✨

Daily life and love stories of couples in their 40s

If everyone were married, I would ask...!

How was the proposal? 💍

Actually, he is very shy and bad at talking 💦

So I try not to expect too much.

I'm doing...

You want me to say it, right? 🥹

Just one word.

When I got married for the first time, I didn't even propose.

No ceremony, no photos...

April Fool's Day 🤣

It doesn't have to be grand.

If you get a flash mob, you'll fall down (laughs)

But

Only "words of separation"

I think I want it properly

Am I being selfish?

40's?

i know the reality.

i can't move with just momentum.

I became stronger properly.

But you know what?

There's still a girl in your heart, right? 🫣

i know, but...

Do you have any nights? 🌙

The more moyamoya the night

I can't afford to face my bones (laughs)

I relied on boneless mackerel on this day 🐟

* Steamed mackerel with miso *

[Materials]

・ 2 pieces of deboned mackerel

Miso tablespoon 1.5

Mirin tablespoon 1

・ Mentsuyu tablespoon 1

· Cooking liquor tablespoon 1

・ Sugar tablespoon 1

A little ginger

1 / 2 teaspoon potato starch

· Water tablespoon 1

[How to make]

1. Cut mackerel into bite-sized pieces with a knife or scissors

2. Put the mackerel and all the seasoning on top in the steamer

3. Steam for 10 minutes

I thought, "Maybe a little more after checking if it's fluffy?

Give me a little time 🐟

... Read more40代での恋愛や結婚を考えると、若い頃とは違う感覚や価値観が生まれてきます。特にプロポーズの有無やタイミングは、大人の恋愛において大きなテーマになることが多いです。私自身も同じように、パートナーの口下手さや照れ屋な一面から、はっきりとした言葉をもらえないことにモヤモヤした経験があります。その気持ちは正直なもので、年齢を重ねても心の奥に乙女心が残っている証拠だと思います。 また、40代だからこそ、お互いのペースや現実を尊重しつつ、ふたりの関係性を深めていくことが大切だと感じます。結婚やプロポーズは形にとらわれすぎず、心通わせる区切りの言葉があるかどうかがポイントになるのかもしれません。私の周りでも、結婚式をしないカップルや、ささやかなけれど心のこもった言葉を大事にしている方が多く見受けられます。 そして、そんなモヤモヤがある夜には、手軽でほっとできる料理を作るのもおすすめです。記事で紹介されている骨なしサバの味噌蒸しは、忙しい大人のカップルにもぴったりの一品。簡単な調味料とせいろで蒸すだけの調理法は、料理が苦手な人でもトライしやすく、心も体もあたたまる料理です。みりんや味噌の旨みがサバにしっかり染み込み、ご飯が進む一品として私もよく作ります。 恋愛も料理も、少しの工夫と素直な気持ちが大切です。プロポーズという大きなイベントを待ちながらも、毎日の小さな幸せや相手とのやりとりを楽しむことで、心の中の乙女心を大切にしつつ、落ち着いた大人の恋愛を育んでいけるのだと感じています。皆さんの恋愛にもきっと共感していただける内容だと思いますので、ぜひ参考にしてみてくださいね。
