It's so lovely to read how many people still fancy their husbands - particularly with the divorce rate rocketing. Teafortwo that's very cute.

Maisiethemorningsidecat · 17/12/2010 19:52

It ebbs and flows iykwim, but I feel the same way about him as Teaforwo's friend does about her dh

Yes teafortwo, I would not change him for a rock god ,I love him with my all my heart, he has given me two beautiful dc's, and he is my rock.

I may moan but its only in jest, he is always there for me and our dc's,he has never let us down thats why I love him.

Adore him,cant keep my hands off him even at 33wks pg although im not sure he's too keen at the mo haha.in contrast i was with ex dh for 18 yrs and certainly didnt fancy him in the lst few yrs,but then again he was a twat so may have been that.He seeemed skinny,dirty,unkempt and made little effort,he actually went off with a younger ow so he cant have been that bad haha

izzybiz · 17/12/2010 19:55

15 years and yes!
Not all the time, but I look at him sometimes, like the other evening he was getting dressed to go out and he just had his jeans on, no top, that was a phwoar moment! Grin He is gorgeous!

OmniaParatus · 17/12/2010 19:58

Yep, DH had an interview today and came in wearing his suit- all I could think was that I wished we were alone Grin!

We have been together 12 years, married 4 and have 2 DC and another on the way. I don't fancy him all the time- I don't think that is possible after so long together- but he can still make my heart flutter!

AnyFuckerForAMincePie · 17/12/2010 19:59

TheFallenMadonna...you like forearms too ??

I thought it was just me

Whenever I talk with mates about what do you like in a bloke...they say "eyes", "mouth", "arse" or whatever

I say "forearms and wrists" and they go wtf Xmas Hmm

A nicely-turned wrist and forearm....

oh

my

God

stinkypants · 17/12/2010 20:00

yes - defintely!! been together 8 years and still cant believe my luck that i got him! he is totally gorgeous and has an amazibg body, i too love it when he uses tools and does manly stuff! phwoarrrr!
sanay, can you not try to improve his clothes, hair etc to ignite nore of a spark?

cupcakebakerer · 17/12/2010 20:01

I shouldn't be reading this whilst preggers, it's making me misty eyed. I thought my comment about fancying the hubby would be slated but it's lovely to read others feel the same way.

JiltedJohnsJulie · 17/12/2010 20:03

11 years and still fancy him. Although sometimes I could just as easily bash him over the head with something blunt and heavy.

Love eh, go figure.

openerofjars · 17/12/2010 20:06

Not tonight: we are having a grump at each other.Sad

Bit more at other times, bit I would probably be more filled with undying lust if he pulled his weight re housework and put the playstation in a cupboard for a week.

And lost three stone in weight.

I am a bitch.Blush

JarethTheGoblinKing · 17/12/2010 20:07

Jilted - I'm SO glad you posted that, I was beginning to think there's something wrong with me Grin

I still fancy DP, yes... but things are bloody hard at the moment and tbh nobody pisses me off more (disclaimer: I am vvvvvvv tired)

Mumcentreplus · 17/12/2010 20:09

hahaha@ Jilted

Yes I still fancy him I like when he looks all rugged 2 day growthy...

I agree with said above..buy him some nice clothes..give him a facial..go out the dinner and boogie or just a walk in the park, whatever you want to do together...remember each other and why you are still together after 18yrs Wink (mainly because no one else would put up with you both Grin)

There's nothing wrong with you Jareth - your relationship sounds perfectly normal!!

Mumcentreplus · 17/12/2010 20:11

and he still surprises me every now and again Smile

ISNT · 17/12/2010 20:12

Oh yes indeedy Grin

We've only been together 5 years though... Can't imagine it changing though Smile

boogiewoogie · 17/12/2010 20:13

Absolutely love him. 11 years on.

Fancy him? Most of the time. As dh describes it. My whole face lights up and breaks into a smile when I see him unexpectedly.

Can't think of anybody else I'd fancy in RL.

JarethTheGoblinKing · 17/12/2010 20:13

Maisie - that subject is currently up for debate in our house Confused

reassuring to hear though :) We are both grumpy miserable anti-social bastards (him more so though) and we probably deserve each other Wink

Mumcentreplus · 17/12/2010 20:13

ha!...if we didn't get pissed off at each other every now and again ..I would think we lived in stepford or sumfinGrin

maighdlin · 17/12/2010 20:14

we have been together five years. sometimes i still fancy him and then other times i am horrified to look at what i married.

Maisiethemorningsidecat · 17/12/2010 20:16

Sorry to hear that Jareth - hope it's just a phase Smile

feralgirl · 17/12/2010 20:18

Nope, I don't fancy DH in the slightest Sad Just as well I love him lots and quite like him as a person I suppose.
