Have you got a good one. (Husband)

[Gouldengirl9]

After reading lots of threads that husbands are in the wrong in lots of ways eg affairs, spending money on himself not family, selfish in outlook. I would like to say I have a good DH, he's not perfect he has a few faults as we all do he wouldn't know a romantic jesture if it stared him in the face. But I trust him with my life, he has to be forced to spend money on himself. He tries to make sure I'm happy with every outing or holiday we have.
So come on everyone is your DH or DP a good one.

He is by and katge very good expect when he is very stressed (he has a spending habit and a taste for very expensive cars). He is also shit at managing cash. If it weren't for his finacial ineptitude he would be perfect.

Yes he's a bloody good egg. I feel very much that we are equal partners in the marriage and as parents. He's kind, lots of fun and I fancy the pants off him. Can have it's downsides though as he's obviously not perfect and if I do want whinge (rare as it is), friends and family are often like "oh but you're so lucky, he's so good". Yes he is, but it doesn't mean I don't need a sounding board every now and then, we're only human. Also, I'm a most excellent wife so he too is very lucky

We never know what the future holds but DH has never given me the slightest reason to doubt his love and loyalty. We've been through some terrible times. Two years ago I had a major operation which went very wrong. I have since had several ops, twice ending up on life support in icu for weeks. He never missed a visit and I wouldn't have coped at home without him. I'll never go back to work but he never treats me as anything other than his equal. We've been married 23 years.

Yep he's great, 10 years in and he's still my best friend. I read about shitty men on here and I can't relate at all.

He's watched me put 8 stone on and is still all over me with love and affection. He helps so much with the kids without me asking. He always tells me what a great mum I am. Always had equal access to money, it would be unthinkable to do anything else. Did nightshifts with baby every other night while working fulltime from home. We laugh all the time.

Mine is great. Definitely not perfect but more perfect than I am!

He does a fair share of the housework without being asked. Was very happy with me being a SAHM for fifteen years and never minded what I spent our money on. He is a good Dad (though sometimes a bit soft). He is very affectionate.

BUT he snores, he can sometimes be a bit indecisive, he would rather stay home, just us, than go to a party. He can be a bit moody but I can normally pull him out of it....

We’ve been together over 30 years and I can’t imagine life without him.

Yes. 33 years, 25 married. Really outing but we lost a child to cancer and have a severely disabled adult child too.

I think the only person in the world who knows how I feel, is him.

I've had anxiety/depression since we lost our precious child and, if I'm struggling, he genuinely picks up the slack and drags me along, till I'm on my feet again. Nobody knows how dark a place I've been in, but him. He is the strongest person I know.

The loss of a child isn't like the soaps, it's a long, hard slog. Life will never be the same again for either of us.

I have the best of oh's. At my worst, when health and sudden depression kicked in, he stepped up and was more amazing than anyone I've ever experienced. It cemented things for me and it makes me want to be the best I can be. We have so much fun together, life is easy and enjoyable always, and when things are difficult we look out for each other.

I've enjoyed reading this thread too. Nearly 20 years with my hubster, nearly 10 married. Like pps say, nobody's perfect but he's my absolute best mate, I find new reasons why regularly. We laugh every day, talk about stuff, he's an ace dad, the best cook, supportive, sooo hot, feminist and puts up with/diffuses my grumpy moments. A few years ago I would have said I don't deserve him or how lucky I am, but I do deserve him and he is lucky too 😀
I don't read this thread as smug, we've all had different experiences - gives me opportunity to appreciate my good 'un and reassuring to know they are out there.

I do!
He's kind, loyal. Fantastic dad.
He would go to the end of the earth for our child and me

He's stood by me through all of my mental health problems and even paid private so I could get my problems sorted sooner. I love him more than he will ever know.

70% no 30% yes. Mine works far more hours than me but does no housework to speak of. I could probably overlook this if he was at least considerate in (a) not immediately messing up what I have just tidied/cleaned and (b) putting things away after use. He creates far more work than the DCs!

He does do an occasional bit of DIY. He is also very good as organising holidays. He pays all the bills too. He doesn't drink or watch football.

Refreshing thread! I'm single but I want a DP one day who is selfless and kind like I am...

Love this thread. I never feel comfortable telling people how happy we are as it sounds like bragging, but I do love to express it when I can. Together 22years, 2 boys. He is my equal, my partner, my best friend. He takes responsibility for home life, child care as much as me. He builds me up and encourages me. We always put the other first. We laugh every day. We are very, very lucky I know x

Yeah I met one of the good ones too. He's utterly amazing. So glad to see he's not alone :)
