As there have been some amazing examples of advanced asshattery and DP with aspirations of adequacy as functional adults I thought it would be nice to have a thread showing some sweet little things dh/ do have done as a look the next guy may not be such an as that one.

My dh has just taken all 3 did out for the next four hours to let me sleep. They're all preschool and have been I'll all week. He's also exhausted but he thinks I need it more.

aww Pebbles, mine is deploying later this year. Yours sound's like a star! So lovely of him to call you. Do you send mail? The little height chart one always makes me smile when friends are doing theirs.

Pebbles69 · 23/03/2013 21:44

Yes we send package a couple of times a week, just kids drawings, photos and little luxuries to let him know we love and are thinking of him. Is this your first experience of a tour ownedby? Feel free to pm me with any questions etc x

BangOffTrend · 23/03/2013 21:45

Yup, mine lovely too. Irritates me daily, and vice versa, but we are truly perfect for each other. Could be the excellent wine he served with the outstanding dinner he just cooked talking...

No this will be number 3! Can't wait for the front line pull out, I am sure this will be his last though (not in that way though!! ohh god no!!) all mine ever wants is cans of redbull, cofee and marshmallows or haribo the odd letter. He can spend a lot of time out of contact on the ground :( hoping he has more time at a established base this time though!

Pebbles69 · 23/03/2013 21:52

Lol! sounds like mine , redbull and harribo are always his staple diet luxuries whilst on tour! Yes we are very much celebrating this being his last tour there but sadly there will always be somewhere else. Hoping for a speedy safe return for them both x

DH and I have been married 13 years this year. We've had some horrendous ups and downs which could have absolutely broken us as a couple and as individuals. But we've come through it all and marvel at how lucky we are. We have a wonderful DS (5) who's an absolute joy. He works incredibly hard and he is passionate about his beliefs. He makes me laugh, tries hard at everything, makes a mean omelette and roast dinner and is a rock.

I look forward to spending the rest of my days with him

Lovely thread - you lucky, lucky things.

Gives me hope I'll find a good'un one day Grin

um, he took the children to a camp...not the chickens, obv.Blush

Lovely DH always let's me have a lie in (both days) when I asked him recently asked him if he wanted to to have a lie in each his answer made me Blush like a schoolgirl

"If letting you lie in every weekend to catch up on your beauty sleep makes you look as beautiful as you do both inside and out il get up at 6am forever"

I actually nearly cried, he's such a sweetie.

I have had my fair share of awful relationships but DH is wonderful. I could write a novel about his many lovely ways but one thing will always stick in my mind:
Picture the scene:
Lovely summers day a few years ago. I wander off to work at lunchtime in flip flops and t shirt, no jacket needed. Later that evening a torrential downpour of biblical proportions starts and lasts for hours. I leave work about 8pm, it is still chucking it down. I had resigned myself to getting soaked to the bones, no money for a taxi.
I get to the front doors of my work and who is waiting for me but DH with a jacket, an umbrella and shoes! He came home at 6, got soaked himself, noticed that I had left my jacket, shoes and umbrella. He then went out and walked 30 min to my workplace(we don't have a car and not on bus route, I always walk) to collect me and bring me my stuff.
My jaw dropped when I saw him, I really could not have found a nicer husband.
It makes me sad to think that 15 years ago I was convinced I could not do any better than the abusive twunt I was with then. I really thought that was all I deserved. There is hope and there are nice men out there!
