👏Andriy is a giant teddy bear and I want to climb him like a tree!!!👏
When you two first met, Andriy was pretty intimidating. Though as time went on, he warmed up to you and you to him.
It started with little laughs at your jokes; smiling when you’re talking no matter the topic, then accidental brushes of your hands, walking close to you with a hand hovering at the small of your back, and late nights in his office talking about anything.
As he fell deeper in love with you, his intimidating demeanor melted away to reveal a cute and affectionate side. He would blush at your compliments and playfully tease you when you made a silly joke.
You started to notice how his personality had shifted. The thought of him liking you bounced around in your head a few times but you always pushed it away. “He couldn’t possibly be interested in me,” you thought to yourself. “He’s probably just being polite.” Oh how naïve you were.
After spending countless late nights together in his office, one night Andriy finally accepted his feelings for you.
He confessed that he had developed feelings for you, and you were taken aback at first. He explained how much he cared about you and how he couldn't help but fall for your wit, intelligence, and beauty. When he said this, your heart began to swell with joy and love.
From that moment on, your relationship with Andriy blossomed into something beautiful! He showered you with attention, love, and affection, and always made sure you knew how much he cared. He became your biggest cheerleader, supporting you in everything you did and encouraging you to pursue your dreams.
His intimidating exterior turned out to be just a facade. You had discovered that he was actually incredibly kind, generous, and thoughtful. He would surprise you with little gifts and notes of love, always finding ways to make you smile.

As your relationship has grown, he is becoming more comfortable expressing his love in many different ways. He holds your hand while walking, kisses you softly on the forehead, and wraps his arms around you in a warm embrace. You feel safe and loved in his arms. It makes you fall even deeper in love with him.
Over time you learn that Andriy's main love languages are gift-giving, making new memories, and physical affection; a way for him to show you he is thinking of you and that he wants to make you feel special.
Andriy doesn't necessarily need a specific occasion to give you gifts, but the gifts he chooses are often thoughtful and personal, reflecting his knowledge of your interests and tastes. For example, he might surprise you with a new book from your favorite author or a piece of jewelry that matches your style perfectly. He also picks up small trinkets that remind him of you, like a keychain with your favorite animal or a mug with a funny slogan that only you would appreciate.
When he gives you a gift, he puts effort into the presentation; wrapping it in nice paper and adding a note that conveys his feelings. He wants you to know that the gift is more than just an object, but a symbol of his love and commitment to you.
On special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries, he loves to go above and beyond with his gift-giving. He plans a surprise weekend for these important events like a getaway to a cozy cabin in the woods or books a reservation at a fancy restaurant you had been wanting to try. Of course, a nice candlelight meal at home is always a possibility too.
To Andriy, making new memories with you is one of the most important aspects of the relationship. He believes that by creating and sharing new experiences together, you both deepen your bond and strengthen your love in ways that words cannot express.
He’s always on the lookout for new and exciting destinations to visit with you, from charming little towns to exotic and far-off countries. He loves to plan weekend getaways or longer trips, taking the time to research the best local spots for food, drinks, and sightseeing. He enjoys nothing more than exploring new cultures and trying new things with you. Even when you were at home, he was always looking for ways to make new memories together.
He treasures the small, everyday moments that make up your life together. He likes to record your memories by taking pictures or making videos of your adventures so that you can look back on them and reminisce. You frequently talk about favorite memories together and share stories about your travels and experiences.
Andriy’s love language of physical affection is all about showing his love and care through touch and intimacy. He wants to be close to you, physically and emotionally. He usually holds your hand and gives you unexpected kisses, reminding you of how much he loves and admires you. He enjoys cuddling with you, whether it's while sleeping or watching a movie. He wants to make sure that you feel safe and secure in his arms. He enjoys twirling you around in his arms as you cook together, playfully stealing kisses, and flirting with you. Even simply brushing his hand against yours as he passes by communicates his love throughout your body. Very intuitive and attentive, though, he knows when you need space and whatever you need, there is never a moment that you don’t feel loved.
When you've had a long day, down, or upset he is there to help you unwind and relax, going to great lengths to see you smile again. He will draw a bubble bath for you, complete with candles and soft music, and sit by the tub, chatting with you and giving you a shoulder massage. You always feel so loved and appreciated. He's always looking for ways to make you happy. For him, helping you unwind is an essential part of a healthy and happy relationship.
Overall, physical touch is one of his strongest expressions of love. He sees touch as a way to communicate his affection, which makes you feel valued and desired.
Andriy is very protective of your relationship and privacy and he doesn't like it when others try to pry into your personal lives. He is careful about what information he shares with others and always makes sure that you are comfortable with any public displays of affection or sharing information about your relationship.
A few cute photos of dinner dates or traveling here, a few photos of him kissing you there. Answering some interview questions occasionally, but nothing in detail. He won't share much more of the relationship, because he values the intimacy and trust that he shares with you, and he wants to keep your relationship between the two of you. He understands that some things are meant to be kept private and believes that not everything needs to be shared with the public.
Despite his protective nature, he’s not possessive or controlling. He trusts you completely and believes in giving you space and independence. He encourages you to pursue your interests and hobbies and is always there to support you in whatever you choose to do.
His respect for your privacy extends to your personal life outside of the relationship as well. He understands that you have a life beyond your relationship and values your independence and autonomy. Pressuring you into anything is never something he would do, and your decisions are always respected. His protective nature stems from his deep love and commitment to you. He wants to create a safe and secure environment where you can both thrive and grow together as a couple.
Andriy is a space heater when you're cuddling or sleeping together. He sleeps in a plain t-shirt and boxers. He finds it cute when you steal his clothes to sleep in or just wear around home.
At night, he holds you close, whispering sweet nothings in your ear until you drift off to sleep. He tells you how much he loves you and how grateful he is to have you in his life. He'll kiss you softly and revel in the warmth and intimacy of the moment. In the morning, he will wake you up with kisses and breakfast in bed, making sure you start your day feeling loved and cared for.
On warm summer evenings, he likes to take you stargazing. He sets up a cozy blanket in a secluded spot and brings a picnic basket with a few bottles of wine, a big bouquet of roses, and high-end sweets and chocolate. You two lie back and watch the stars, talking, laughing, flirting, and enjoying each other's company as the night lingers on.
All in all, Andriy is a romantic at heart, and he enjoys showing his love for you in many different ways. He is loving, devoted, and passionate toward you and is always looking for ways to make you feel loved and valued. With his thoughtful gestures, affectionate nature, and romantic spirit.
