So, what do YOU think a good (relationship) partner does to show you they're still interested? (... outside the bedroom, that is. (... outside the sexual realm, entirely. Gods, you people...))

I would think this would vary wildly from person to person. I like getting little pointless gifts. Some people hate having to figure out what to do with the useless clutter their partner "thoughtlessly" keeps bringing in. I like having my partner's attention while we eat dinner. Other people really hate not being "allowed" to watch TV. I like having my laundry folded and put away. Some people might be really annoyed by not having it done right. When I ask my partner to do something and he agrees, I take it as a direct slight when it's not done. Other people are more tolerant of "forgetting." I like it when he leaves the last glass of wine or the last piece of fruit or whatever for me... unless of course I'm on a diet.

I don't think there's a correct answer to this. In fact, some things others have suggested here, like hiding things you need in a hurry, like the toothpaste, would make me murderous.
