You'd been trying your hardest to accomplish what felt like a simple task for a week now. No matter what you did, it just wasn't getting done. It was fighting you at every turn. You were almost about to give up.

But then, you hit a breakthrough. And you let out a scream of joy. But your boyfriend didn't know this was joy.

"Mein Schatz? What is wrong?" he called, hurrying into your office.

"I just ... I did it!" you said, pointing to your work, and he grinned.

"I'm so proud of you," he said.
