To start a husband appreciation thread?

[LunasOrchid]

I don't know about you but I feel like there's a lot of negative threads about men/husbands generally on MN and it's made me realise just how lucky I am to have my wonderful DH

Not all men are arseholes and I think a thread praising the good men (husbands, fathers, brothers etc.) in our lives is in order.

My husband is a truly nice person. He is incredibly friendly and everyone who meets him would agree. He puts me first and would do anything for me. He does more than his fair share of housework and cooks more than what I do. He's a fantastic father to our DD and actually parents and plays with her. Whenever I need him, he's there and he is truly loyal. He's a kind, genuine, selfless person and I'm truly blessed to call him my husband. ❤

He's not my husband but he's the best man I've ever known

Just very cynical about these posts as two local Mumsnetters who post similar on here about their ‘wonderful ‘ husbands ars completely unaware that one is shagging his PA and the other her best friend.

so ALL husbands are lying cheating bastards then?

funny that we never read that all PA or all women are lying cheating ass...

Threads like this give me pause. On the one hand, it does seem prideful to brag about how great our DH's are, when so many of us on MN are here because of the exact opposite. However, if I was in the latter camp, I would want something to give me hope - and this thread does that.

I am so very grateful for my DH. I struck gold, in every way. I can't quite imagine how I got so lucky. However, he says the same - and means it. We both have, right from the start, a very long time ago. 39 years marries in a few months. Still adore, fancy and feel such pride in each other. Yes, we have our arguments, mostly silly ones, but they are rare, and usually because of something external, ie over-tired, coming down with something, work stress, the like. Almost never about anything about us.

I have quite often looked at a future without him, heaven forfend, but if it happens and I go first, I shall be okay. Very, very sad. But OK. For him, I'm not so sure. I have told him he has to promise to find someone else to be with - he's too good a human (and a catch) to be alone :( Oh. That was morbid. Sorry!

My husband is wonderful. We just celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary yesterday. We married young (20) and he has always supported me. He does all the cooking, a lot of cleaning, but the thing I love most is he helps me manage my mental illness and chronic health conditions. He goes above and beyond for me and never complains. I'm living 4.5 hours away from him this year finishing my uni degree, but he calls me and texts me every day and showers me in love and attention when I'm home. I honestly couldn't do life without him. I'm so lucky.

Ha, a typical convoluted MN dig at men, even on this thread! Surely if you want to make a point then we should all be loyal and kind

Of course Tilly hence I wrote it is how HUMANITY is supposed to be.
