cos DP always puts myself & the kids first.
will never moan if he's coming home to a tip (and i mean tip) of a house
doesn't moan about clearing the dog poop every day
would rather go without any tea if it meant the kids/I had a bit more and it was needed.
will stand in front of me and give me a huge hug cos he can see at that moment I need it.
Plays silly with the kids at least one afternoon a week (ok not always good as the youngest gets idle)
actually enjoys spending time with the kids and investing in them (ie educating them etc with reading/stories/little posters up all over the place)
is really hot
is a good cook
gets up every Saturday without fail (unless he's seriously ill) to let out the dogs/get the kids sorted out
carrys the bags when shopping
is the most kind & generous person I know.

bad bits thou is he can be a moody git sometimes, oh and leaves his washing on the floor - big big isshooooos!

but a refreshing change after an abusive marriage/several abusive/dependent relationships. any other good men out there who deserve the mention?

(oh yes and he puts up with my irrational hysterical emotional pregnancy states atm by handing chocolate a cup of tea and plonking in front of the tv (bridget jones no less! :o)

thats soo sweet,bless him

orangeeyebrows · 26/03/2011 19:16

yours sounds like mine

(except the preggers stuff lol)

we've been married 30 years this year :)

perfumedlife · 26/03/2011 19:17

He sounds wonderful Smile

lilacisinlove · 26/03/2011 19:17

I've got one of those too...he's fab :)

We don't live together, but when he's here he will do anything that's needed willingly and often just gets on with it, doesn't wait to be asked.
He knows I'm a neat freak and that's ok.
He tells me he loves me every day, several times a day.
He's taking me to Dubai for ten nights...can't wait!
He's really excited about meeting my DDs for the first time and wants to get to know them and spend time with them.
He's good company and good to look at and makes me feel special and adored.
He's generous, considerate and loving.

He's so many things that my ex was not, and I'm happier than I've ever been.

ShortArseFuck · 26/03/2011 19:17

He is just the best.

davidtennantsmistress · 26/03/2011 19:18

short - have lurked on your thread, he sounds very similar to DP.

lilac - should point out DP is neither of the kid's dad's (one's mine the other a dss) and he's fantastic with both, so just goes to show what some real men are like. :)

My dp is a goodun too. We've been together just shy of 6 months, and in that time he's shown himself to be honest, trustworthy and a real rock. I find it incredibly hard to trust people, but I trust him completely. He helped me through my grandad's funeral and has seen me be sick more times than I care to mention (bugs, not alcohol Wink) and doesn't bat an eyelid. And I love that he is fallible too, I would hate to be with someone too perfect for fear of not living up to them.

ShortArseFuck · 26/03/2011 19:22

My DP is fab with my two kids. Honestly fab.

After being with a fuckwit bit of a knob I am allowed to say that Grin

Boozilla · 26/03/2011 19:29

My DH runs me a bath when he can see I have PMT am knackered, he does it secretly and when I go in there is a glass of wine on the side and candles lit!

He brings home flowers for no reason at all

Takes our DD swimming when he really doesn't feel like it

Tells me how beautiful he thinks I am all the time, even when I'm in my pyjamas making eggs for the kids at 7am!

Treats my family with love and respect

Hands me the remote control as soon as I sit down

Gives me a massage when my back is sore (although this usually means he tries for a fondle at some point Grin)

I am very lucky!!

davidtennantsmistress · 26/03/2011 19:33

erm... booze.... how did you manage the remote one? this is one thing he always has - not that i'm overly bothered as i'm not really interested in the telly mostly. (never done 'soaps' and such.)

lazarusb · 26/03/2011 19:50

My dh is great too. I've threatened him with sex tonight! Grin

ShortArseFuck · 26/03/2011 19:54

If I don't get sex tonight I will be seriously disappointed!!

Grin

Tis only in the last couple of weeks that DP has started to stay over when the girls are here and the being quiet is a challenge Blush

as is the fact that the dog scrapes at the door

davidtennantsmistress · 26/03/2011 22:27

:o love it - wish I would however he's currently out & about working and not home tonight, will have to make do with tomorrow night instead. lol.

OP posts:
ShortArseFuck · 26/03/2011 22:30

OKaaaaay

Have persuaded allowed DD2 as a treat to take the dog into her bedroom for the night.

Hopefully this means scrapeing will be minimised as it does tend to rather spoil the moment

Grin

Just waiting for him to get back from dropping half the country home from youth club and then I shall "accost" him.

happiestblonde · 27/03/2011 13:58

Love DP. Lived together nearly a year now, together a few, he's the most beautiful creature I have ever seen and my best friend. He looks after me in every possible way and because it is my birthday tomorrow he's made sure I'm having a 4 day (from Friday) 'birthyay' celebration including a night out with my friends, theatre and dinner last night, picnic on the common, champagne breakfast, gifts etc. He's just wonderful, his family are wonderful, I was utterly in love with him before we got together (he was my dissertation supervisor at university) but he is a thousand times more perfect than imagined. He makes me happier than I thought possible, supports my ridiculous life decisions and we can communicate through growls.

madonnawhore · 27/03/2011 14:03

I admire my DP so much and I feel so safe with him. Being with him has been very healing for me. He's just a lovely person with a very kind heart.

davidtennantsmistress · 30/03/2011 08:11

:) so lovely, get the feeling i'm going to be needing to remind myself I said this about DP in the next few months. lol.

FreakoidOrganisoid · 30/03/2011 17:48

I believe they are out there...I just haven't met one yet and am starting to doubt my chances!

Showmeheaven · 30/03/2011 18:09

Yep, I've a good 'un too. Kind, thoughtful, hard working, helps around the house, great with the kids etc.

There are loads of good, decent men out there. Don't forget we tend only to hear about the bad ones on here ...

Frizzbonce · 30/03/2011 18:20

davidtennantsmistress what a lovely life affirming post!

I don't live with my DP but he says it's a privilege for him to be in mine and my DD's life.

He puts his hand on the back of my neck like a friendly bear, he cooks like he was born to do it and he makes me come like a train.
