Following a few horror posts on here that I've seen recently...

... AIBU to ask if anyone has any nice DH stories to tell?

I love mine, he's bloody lovely

I only got married on Monday but the first few days have been great! We’ve been together 6.5yrs and he just makes me so happy.

lovely thread!

My DH is my best pal. Has been for 39 years (!)

He is the best cook (and I am the best eater), smart as a whip, plays guitar beautifully, is a great dad and grandfather, is even lovely to our cat. He treats me like I'm the best thing since sliced bread, which still amazes me. We tell each other every day how lucky we are. Oh, and very sexy. He still gives me the fanny gallops after all this time.

I could live without him. Life would be very much less, but I could do it. I so hope that I don't have to.

Your post is really unfair. No one here is writing how wonderful their partner is on a thread where a woman is discussing an unsupportive or abusive partner. If they were then that would be horrible but they're not. It's a thread of its own.

There are so many threads discussing bad partners I actually think some women might be tempted to put up with their partners shitty behaviour because it seems so common reading mumsnet. This thread is a nice change.

Aw your all so lucky to have such good men.
I had an abusive childhood and 2 abusive partners.
It’s saddens me I may never meet a man who loves me.
I’ve missed out on a lot.
I’m am genuinely happy for you all. It’s lovely to hear.
I just want to be loved.

Mine just took 10 minutes to text me just to talk about shite to take my mind off the panic attack i was having. Despite it being the time he was trying to leave work and is now later home because of it.

I have a fantastic DH. I'm 34 weeks pregnant and have had a really rough pregnancy (my morning sickness never went away and I got prenatal anxiety) and he has been my absolute rock. He's gone out of his way to look after me, and do everything he can to make my life easier without being asked or pestered.

He's got a demanding job working for a big brokerage firm, but he always pulls his weight around the house, or, if he can't is happy to outsource/throw money at the problem. he'll be taking his full whack of paternity leave, and will be doing a few weeks by himself when I go back to work. He's so excited it makes my heart melt.

We've been together 10 years, married and 5 and we still have so much fun together - our marriage has never been hard work, even though we're polar opposites we just work together.

Congratulations Dame Burley

Also, I know Sheryl Sandberg and "Lean In" have their problems, but I think of this quote often when I think of DH:

“When looking for a life partner, my advice to women is date all of them: the bad boys, the cool boys, the commitment-phobic boys, the crazy boys. But do not marry them. The things that make the bad boys sexy do not make them good husbands. When it comes time to settle down, find someone who wants an equal partner. Someone who thinks women should be smart, opinionated and ambitious. Someone who values fairness and expects or, even better, wants to do his share in the home. These men exist and, trust me, over time, nothing is sexier.”

Lovely thread

@MagicKingdomDizzy that cake is fabulous! My husband isn't the best of cooks and he can't bake but he's the best thing that ever happened to me. I still haven't trained him to put the toilet seat down though! His only bad point.

Mine is a rock. Solid and dependable and fundamentally good. He’s an amazing father, very funny, a great cook, and has my back at all times.
He’s also a raging pain in the arse at times, of course

When I first laid eyes on my DH, I thought "Crap! He's so hot. Will probably just want a bit of fun, not to take on a single mum of four..."

Well I was wrong. 2.5 years later we're married, have a house together and are expecting a baby together in July.

We've been through horrendous sickness, a miscarriage, major issues with my ex husband and all the day to day shit too, but he's been amazing. He works ridiculously long hours to support us all but still pulls his weight in the house and with the kids.

And he's still gorgeous

Aww this thread is making me all tear-y it's so lovely!

My DH is lush - he makes me happy!

(... well, apart from last night, when we decide to go for a 'short' run together and he insisted he didn't need a map... 13.7 miles later...)

My husband is wonderful. He is caring and so thoughtful. I'm disabled and struggle terribly in the mornings. He brings me breakfast in bed every day before he goes to work. It's one of his many acts and gestures that make him so special to me. He is my world.

Mines a dp not a fb, but he’s amazing. Funny, sexy, handsome, kind, intelligent, hardworking, generous and most of all puts up with me and my kids! I love him to bits.

But I also have to give a shout out to my 2 exdp (ds1 & ds2’s Dad’s) because they are amazing too. Will do anything and everything for their boys and I want for nothing. If they need something they are the 1st to give it. Everyone seem to have nightmare ex’s on here so I sometimes feel the odd one out! But there are amazing ones out there. I’m very lucky and I know it!

Been with mine for 11 years and the best thing about him is he is so supportive. When I was pregnant with our 5 year old and was swollen and miserable, I finished work months early and he took all the pressure and got all the money together for everything the baby needed.
When I went back to work after maternity and found 5 days hard, he supported me when I said I wanted to leave the job with no plan of where to go next.
He's so supportive of our son who has autism and all his needs, like when I started him at gymnastics to try and help muscle strengthening. Our ds was the only boy in a large class of girls while all the other boys in his class went to football instead.
And now baby no. 2 is weeks away and he's travelling to and from work every day with a 2 and a half hour commute each way to be home and help in the evenings. He usually stays away 3 nights a week and I didn't ask him to start coming home daily but I'm so glad he did.

I could tell some nice exH stories, even though I divorced him for DV.
Nobody is always nasty and most abusers tend to be nice some of the time at least.

Current boyfriend seems to be nice pretty much all the time, though. Fingers crossed.

I love my DH. Together for 10 years married for 6 with 2 DC. He works hard in and out of the home, he's a wonderful husband and father and my best friend.

Mine is amazing. He is a great husband and fantastic father to our girls. He is very laid back and just deals with whatever happens.

I nearly lost him last year and am so grateful he survived.

My DH is a wonderful, brilliant, kind man, who would do absolutely anything for me (and I for him). Together for 27 years and married for 22. 💕

@TheSerenDipitY 😂😂. Yes!! Mine has bought those for me on many many occasions over the years! Doesn't phase him one bit. He draws the line at tights though!

I just want to add that I love this post and posts like it. I've read some really horrible, vile things on MN; it's refreshing to read a non-cynical, kind and encouraging thread.🙏

Mine is a wonderful husband, father and stepfather. He provides a level of love and support which has made the last 31 years the best of my life.

My DH is amazing, he's so much fun and kind, loving, affectionate,great (and generous!) in bed. An excellent Dad. We argue sometimes over stupid things but I wouldn't be without him, he's an amazing partner. He's definitely one of the good guys! Great thread!

My husband is bloody amazing!!

He does all the food shopping and he cooks every night! Yummy!

He takes our sons on holidays without me to give me a break, he always makes sure I find time to see my friends and he always lets me have the lie-ins at the weekends

Every spare bit of money he has is spent on treats for me or the children, or generally just spending it to make our life better in some way.

He is the most selfless man I have ever met and I’m extremely lucky.
