He loves my children and grandchildren as if they were his own. And they love him back.
He is so reliable, it's wonderful. ( My ex was so unreliable it broke me, so this is something really special for me).

He's kind, honest, funny especially a cheesey way, respectful, helpful and I've never been able to be more myself with anyone.
I'm demanding, hard work & not the easiest to be with but he does it, mostly with a smile on his face & makes me feel so secure.

Lovely thread Grin

ACatsNoHelpWithThat · 05/10/2018 14:48

I'm not grateful to my DH for acting like any good partner should.

I am, however, very grateful that we met and that we are attracted to each other.

EndeavourVoyage · 05/10/2018 14:50

My DH is amazing. He has taught me how to have confidence in myself and how to have self respect after a very troubled childhood. He could see through all of my shit to the person I really was and has encouraged me every day to be that person. I love him more than anything in the world, he is a wonderful Dad and will be an equally wonderful grandfather I just know. We are celebrating 30 years together this week.

He's kind to me even when I'm being a dick. He's never a dick.

NotTheFordType · 05/10/2018 15:41

I've never been able to be more myself with anyone.
@RooDaisy Yes, this was fundamental with me and my H. There were no head games, no passive aggressiveness, no walking on eggshells. Which was a fucking revelation after my previous relationships, which included such unwritten rules as "If you're playing a card game or trivial pursuit, if you win then say "best of 3?" and make sure you lose the next two."

When we went to bed he used to spoon me and stroke my hair until I fell asleep.

BeTrue · 05/10/2018 15:42

@croprotationinthe13thcentury smug or people sharing positive things about their relationships to try and show others that happiness is out there and can be found Smile take your negativity elsewhere we don't need it.

RooDaisy · 05/10/2018 15:54

"Nothtefordtype"
It's so important & really special especially
when you're not sure you is all that!

RavenLG · 05/10/2018 16:05

I fractured my ankle on Thursday, he came straight from work at the hospital. Took me too McDonalds for a Fillet O Fish as I missed lunch, brought be ibuprofen, paracetamol and water this morning, also told me he had made me a flask of coffee and moved my latop into the dining room so I could work from home.
He generally does everything he can to make me happy, and when my anxiety gets bad he knows how to sit with me and bring me out of my panic attacks. He never ever judges me for it.
If singing the praises of someone who makes your life better every day then I'm the biggest smug prick in the world and don't actually give a fuck what some bitter nob thinks
