To ask what your DP/DH does that you love the most?

[ethelfleda]

Inspired by another thread
and because there is a lot of negative stuff about people's partners on here

I love that my DH can make me laugh so much and completely turn my mood around when I have had a bad day.

I love that he is so good at DIY - and has spent nearly every weekend for months doing our house up for the arrival of our first child (due in November) while constantly telling me to put my feet up

I love that he is charming, charismatic, straight talking and very talented

Anyone else?

So, in essence, we value kind, considerate men, preferably with a skill like DIY or cooking, that can gently shepherd away our spiders (or equivalent), make us our morning tea and facilitate our lie ins, whilst also being red hot in bed.

With that list impressed we've found so many of them

Good work ladies! A lovely thread.

My DH cleaned some disgusting dog poo off my shoes once; I left them outside, not being able to face it and the next thing I know he's out there cleaning them up for me. I tell my 2 DDs that that is true love

I know he always has my back and was so patient when I went through a horrible time recently. He let me talk it out as many times as I wanted and I healed so much quicker than if I didn't have him.

I trust him implicitly and feel safe.

Plus, he's good with his hands......and I don't mean DIY!!

His cuddles, his emotional intelligence and the way he lights up a room when he smiles. That, and he is GORGEOUS

My husband recently described marriage as:

"doing all the things you hate doing because you know the person you love hates doing them too"

He's an absolute gem and I genuinely can't relate to people who moan incessantly about their partners.

Also, he is absolutely drop dead GORGEOUS and I fancy him more now than when I met him six years ago. He's getting better with age.

I'll add another one. If DH gets a nice piece of cake at work he would bring it home to share with me. I'm a bastard I eat them myself, can't wait until I get home or to share

Mine brings me a cup of tea in bed every morning

What a lovely thread, and some wonderful things people have said about their partners

Mine is gorgeous (I think a mix between prince William and Prince Harry), he’s very tall and has lovely broad shoulders
He’s fantastic at diy, which I really admire (he taught himself to plaster and do basic plumbing on our old house).
He’s incredibly responsible and always puts family first (does a better job at this than me sometimes).
He makes me laugh, every single day.
He’s a wonderful father and I can often here him and my son giggling somewhere in the house because he’s pretended to be a monster

Kind with a nice aurra about him
Makes breakfast most mornings and brings to me in bed
Completely non-sexist
Great stepdad to DCs
Grows fruit & veg
Music lover - I am too & we have a good social life
Cooks (far more than I do - hates washing up so thats my part)
Housework not a discussion at all, whoever's around does it but I don't do heavy work

We can chat and debate about anything - very important to me after spending years with an ex who took any difference of opinion on anything at all as an affront/reason to go to war with me.

Since other posters have mentioned..will also add, biggest cock I've seen & knows very well how to use it..

This is a nice thread made me think about all the things I appreciate about him

AndNoneForGretchenWieners

Genuinely seems to love and respect me as an equal. Never puts me down or criticizes me.

He's kind to me. When I'm having a bad day, or feeling grumpy and know I'm being unreasonable, he still manages to be kind and supportive and make me laugh as well. Takes me by surprise so much it usually cheers me up! He's away at the moment and I'm not very good at cheering myself up when he's not here.

*With that list impressed we've found so many of them wink

Good work ladies! A lovely thread*

Haha! You're right there!

I suspect a great many of us are also considerate wives/partners too. I truly believe you only get out out of a marriage/relationship what you put in to it

He's so chilled out, is kind to everyone, never raises his voice to me, never belittles me. Says lovely things about me to his friends.

Something happened to him a few months ago but his only concern was for the kids and I.

He cooks almost every day as I hate it.

Catches spiders.

He works hard.

His money is our money.

And the best bit is I can trust him 100%

He makes me coffee every morning
He's a great dad. Always doing his share of changing nappies and baths and so on.
Always does his share of cleaning.
Cleans the bathroom for me as the chemicals trigger my asthma.
He's very supportive of me in trying to figure out what I want to do with my life
He's very patient when I have bad moods
He buys me chocolate
He gives great hugs

He’ll give up his food (no matter how nice it is) if I don’t like my food when we order out somewhere. I never ask, he just insists as he says he can’t enjoy the meal if he knows I’m not enjoying it. It’s very sweet and he’s given up some tasty dishes in his time!

He sometimes lets me order his main as well as mine when we eat out - because if I can't decide between two then I can try both

If the kids knock on the door in the middle of the night he always goes and takes them to bed and helps them back to sleep.
He always walks in the door all cheery after work, never moans.
Tells me I’m gorgeous every day.
Tidies up my car
Never gives me the teeniest reason to be jealous or suspicious, he’s devoted.

Oh and he is most definitely a feminist.

One more- he never watched poem and has no interest in it- it’s true.

Porn not poem! He hates poems too though.

He is an amazing dad to our 2 year old daughter, seeing them together makes my heart burst as they adore each other so much and I know he hates working 12-hour-days and misses her a lot.

He is fantastic in bed.

He makes amazing fry-ups and roasts at the weekends, and cooks a lot during the week even though he’s working and knackered - a much better and more-inspired cook than I am.

He always runs to the shop for things I’ve forgotten/beers/takeaways.

He works hard everyday so I can be a SAHM to our daughter.

He always praises me up as a mother and makes me feel good about myself when I’m having one of my down days or suffering anxiety.

He is the resident moth/spider-remover, and always gently puts them outside, even though I’m screaming for them to be smashed

He’s the best thing that ever happened to me ❤️

My DP buys my favourite biscuits on his way home from a 12 shift at work. He walks my dog on his days off, so I can stay in bed longer. He builds me up, believes in me and tells me he loves me and that I'm beautiful everyday. He is happy to chat about anything and is always making me laugh. He seems to think he's the lucky one!!

Understands the quotes I Have picked up from tv/film/over hearing people in the road that make me laugh. One of my faves is from a very angry woman who didn't want to queue for the lift in a large car park complex who strutted past whilst blurting out 'I've got legs!'

Sorry posted too soon.

My ex did not appreciate my humour and dp (I still say new but tbh we have been together 6 years) not only gets it but is also not lacking in the comedy department.

It is honestly the reason I love him so much. We just laugh together every day and it keeps me sane!

My Husband is so kind. he would do anything for me in a heartbeat.
He gives marvellous snuggles, makes a smashing curry and is the most wonderful gentle father to our DC. I wouldn't want to survive in this world without him.
