One example. When my wife thinks I’m getting a little fat, she has a tell. She’ll stop putting sugar in my coffee.
It’s not intentional, she’s not giving me some subtle hint on purpose. It’s just an idiosyncrasy I’ve noticed. I’m not offended, but just hit cardio a little more and stay away from the cookie jar for a bit.
You folks have anything like that?

My husbad can and does paint my nails sometimes. He paints also our daughter’s nails occasionally (she’s 16) and her friends’ from time to time. The thing is, his hobby is sketching and drawing, so painting nails is aligned with his general artistic inclination. It all began when he picked an interest with manicure, when for fun I took him with me to the salon, because I wanted some nice patterns on my nails. Since then he did the research and learned how to do it the right way. Although, the beginnings were truly terrible, but somehow we got through it and his skills improved to level that puts a shame onto some nail care salons. So yeah, that’s one of the hidden, quirky talents my husband has.
Anything that can be done while sitting on a bed my wife will do sitting on a bed. Got a show to watch and the couch and tv are available in the living room, she’s going to watch it on her phone in bed. I’m kind of expecting to find her trying to get all her soldering stuff setup on the bed one of these days.
He chews his house key. It sounds so weird but I promise it’s the cutest thing ever
