1. Telling each other "I love you" by farting in front of each other, because they are the only person you are comfortable enough with to do that.

4. Secretly using each other’s beauty products.

5. Putting on matching clothes by mistake and deciding to change because, guess what? You’re not fucking 80 years old. (Yet.)

6. Returning home minutes after you've already left the house because you forgot to give your S.O. a goodbye kiss.
