In wanting to show my dh a bit of appreciation

Yes this is a thread about a thread. A poster wishes that her dd becomes a lesbian because all men are bastards, basically.

Well they're not. My Dh is kind, loving, responsible, hard working and I think that we're lucky to have each other.

I bet there are loads of lovely dp/dh out there who are obviously being tarred with the same brush as the cock lodging, womanizing, lazy, brigade.

My dh is wonderful to me and is a doting father to boot. I still fancy him like mad when I see him walking towards me if we're out and about somewhere and he is still the kindest, most honest and loving person I have ever met. It is a pleasure to be in our marriage and completely worthwhile working for it! And I'm not embarrassed to say so either!

This is brilliant.. good for all of you ladies

DH is wonderful truly wonderful. He did most of the night feeds when DD was born as I had PND and he suffers from insomnia. He's my rock there for me every time I need him.

MarthaLovesMatthew · 09/06/2010 18:07

Can I join?

I'm also lucky to have a wonderful DH who never fails to tell me every day that he thinks I'm wonderful, kind and s*xy (even when covered in baby sick and the such).

I love him more than I can express, for more reasons than I can say.

Am v. much liking this thread btw. Makes for really nice reading.

AlCrowley · 09/06/2010 18:09

My DH is handsome, kind, thoughtful, generous, calm and loving and the most wonderful father I could ever have asked for for my children.

I love him very, very much.

GinSlinger · 09/06/2010 18:10

and me - 32 years with DH and he's great. I love him more every year I think.

AgentZigzag · 09/06/2010 18:11

'he remembers things I like for months and then buys them for birthdays/christmas.'

Very hatingmyjob

bunnymother · 09/06/2010 18:15

My DH is wonderful - I am v fortunate.

MrsC2010 · 09/06/2010 18:24

Oh, and what MrsGangly said! I feel like a beached whale, am very uncomfortable and moany and hormonal...and he is amazing. I can't wait to see him with our daughter, just seeing how excited and 'in love' with her he is already (only 33 wks pregnant at the moment, so their conversations take place purely through my belly!) tells me he will be a great father.

AliGrylls · 09/06/2010 18:29

Mine is also a blessing. He is so good with DS and now I am pregnant again he has let me stay in bed until 8 am every morning. Cooks most evenings and bathes DS. I love threads like this.

FellatioNelson · 09/06/2010 21:51

My DH is a truly decent man who is very genererous, kind to people, always encourages my dreams, always boosts my confidence, never puts me down, and treats me better than I deserve (sometimes). He is also is the best father I could have ever hoped for. I picked good! He couldn't bear to be parted from his kids, and I know that whatever happens to us as a couple, he would never put his own interests before his children's. I luff him.

FellatioNelson · 09/06/2010 21:57

Have just read all this thread and it's making my eyes go wet and funny.

annielouisa · 09/06/2010 22:01

I would like to sing the praises of my DH he is a lovely person. I had a terrible first marriage and he helped rebuild my life and he is my best friend.

bronze · 09/06/2010 22:02

my dh is alright I guess

my df, dfil and db are all fab blokes too

kickassangel · 09/06/2010 22:05

yep, another one with a good man here. we've had some ups & downs, but just celebrated 18 years of marriage. we've also coped with some real crap in our lives & come through it together. sometimes how level headed & reasonable he is drives me demented, but i need that in my life, and it gets us through problems.

i honestly believe that being with the right person brings out the best in you.

sadly, being with the wrong person does the reverse.

whatname · 09/06/2010 22:05

I like these threads, will save for later.

JaxTellersOldLady · 09/06/2010 22:10

my DH is fantastic, he encourages me, tells me he loves me and doesnt have a fit when I am a grumpy, pre menstrual cow. He is also hard working, kind, generous, makes me laugh and is a great father. He still finds me attractive even though I have put on weight and I love him to bits.

Im glad you started this I read that thread and just felt really sad.

My DH is amazing, together we have produced 3 Amazing dc with no 4 on the way, he makes a lovely spag bol, does all the gardening, cleans up. I still fancy him like mad after 12 years and he saves lives for a living (he's a firefighter.)

Dont tell him I said so though

MunchkinsMumof2 · 09/06/2010 22:59

I love my husband very much too and can honestly say that I have never met a kinder, funnier or better husband or Dad in my life. He works really hard for us and always puts us first. He is genuinely lovely to everyone he meets and has as many female friends as male. I'm glad the imbalance is being addressed with this thread as my dh,db,df and dfil are all proof that not all men are idiots.
Thanks for starting this thread. it makes a welcome change!

AnyFucker · 09/06/2010 23:04

My bloke is a good 'un too

I give credit to my MIL, and just to the fact he is a genuinely kind and decent person

LimaCharlie · 09/06/2010 23:06

Thanks for this thread - DH and I have had a tricky few weeks - just not getting on in general but this reminded me that he may be a grumpy fecker sometimes but he's fundamentally a decent bloke.

MisSalLaneous · 09/06/2010 23:14

I don't often praise or talk about dh on here because it feels somewhat insensitive if people are going through horrid experiences with their dh / dp / ex etc.

However, if this is a free card to swoon: I love my husband. He's funny, intelligent, hard working, sensitive and, above all, he always thinks of ds and me first.

Sometimes he drives me insane with his silly little habits. Yet, when he holds me tight or makes me laugh, the world is good.

And for some really odd reason, he seems to think I'm gorgeous. I'm not. Honestly. Love, blind and all that.

Alouiseg · 09/06/2010 23:20

anyfucker. Good point, well made wrt mil.

This is a great thread, in as much as it treats hetrosexuality as being the norm. Women and men are a natural relationship.
