Anyone Got a Good Man?

MRSTITTLEMOUSE

I met and married my husband 40 years ago,I was 16 he was 20.
He is the most amazing person I have ever met and I could'nt exist without him.
Everything about him even now after 40 years makes me want him more.
Not only has he been a wonderful husband but he is my best friend and companion,my soul mate.
I can honesty say I can complain about nothing he has ever done and if I did it would have to be something silly and very minor because he's never done anything ever to offend me.
Of course we've had our run ins but never nothing serious.
Our daughters adore him as much as I do as he has been such a good father to them and he now takes his role as a grandfather to five very seriously.
I just love him to bits.

I've got a great husband too. Before I met him I had had two bad relationships, which left me very insecure. Somehow, during the 20 years we've been together he has changed all that. I now feel very secure and cared for.

He cooks, does the washing and empties / fills the dishwasher. He is also a very hands on dad to our 3 children.

I knew he was a good one just 2 weeks after I met him. We'd been watching a film in his room when I started to feel sick and I feel asleep. Suddenly, I woke up, knowing that I was going to throw up. It took me a minute to work out where I was - he had tucked me into the bed and was sleeping on the floor in a sleeping bag. I had to step over him to get out of his bedsit and had just got onto the landing when I threw up everywhere. I was just so embarrassed, but knew that I was going to through up again, so I rushed into the bathroom.

When I came out, DH was just finishing cleaning the hall. He never said anything to make me feel awkward or embarrassed (though I did feel like a complete fool).

He is still as caring now.

My ex was/is not the worst man in the world, but he didn't treat me brilliantly, he is lovely to everyone else tho and lots of women think he is wonderful, so that's one kind of good man.

My OH is the best most perfect man in the world. He is kind, loving, generous and so beautiful he does have health problems so does get frustrated and moody but so what everything else he does far outweighs that

Yay for all the lovely men in the world :T

Lovely thread, OP!
I am happy to say that I have a good man too.....my prince swept me off my feet 23 years ago, and despite many very sad and hard times, we are still in love and happy together!
There is nothing as important as loving someone and being loved in return

I am VERY lucky with my DH - he is my best friend and is a proper "grown up" man, not one who is not interested in going out getting trollied, playing computer games all the time, playing around etc. We have been together 18 years (married for 13) and are still as loved up now as when we first got together (more so in fact). He is a brilliant father to our children and a wonderful husband and best friend to me. I am truly blessed x

My Mum's got a good man, I know this is about hubbys but I think he is worth a mention. He is nearly 93 years old and was carer to my Mum who is nearly 90, until a stroke in March forced them to part, her into a nursing home and my Dad still at their little flat. He spends every afternoon with her, reading the paper to her (she is unfortunately blind), doing crosswords, chatting and snoozing in the chair while she has a nap. He misses her terribly and unfortunately his memory is now getting quite poor. They will have been married for 67 years in April next year. Sorry to hijack the hubby post, but Im sure you'll agree he's worth a mention.

I have a great man too

I have been bed-bound and very ill for most my pregnancy... and he looks after my DS, Cooks, Cleans, Irons and does ALL the housework, and looks after the pets... while i've just been poorly! He looks after me when I am very poorly, making sure I eat and drink. When DS was sick a month ago, he was up at 2am.... When I was REALLY bad he meal planned for me too! He does all the food shopping every week... I really could not have gotten through this without him!

And on top of that he works full time too!

And that's just in the last 9 months...! I would need all day to cover the last 5 and a half years! He really is a saint

What a lovely post this is. I am married to a great man too. He is someone I am lucky to be sharing my life with and I see us gradually growing old together very happily.

We dont always agree on things but that is good I think. He helps me to see situations from all angles and gives me a much fuller perspective on life.

He is fun to be around and has a brilliantly dry sense of humour. He has been my rock and can always be relied upon to be calm if there is a drama or a crisis.

He always has time for people and would do anything for anyone, but is no-ones fool or a mug.

He is intelligient and interesting to talk to. Has many hobbies and interests.

Our twin daughters are due to be born next week. I am so excited to see what kind of father, this man I love so much, will be. He cannot wait for them to be born and I think I will see and get to know even more about him than I do now

We've been married 36yrs next March + he's still my favourite person . He's a great husband ,dad and grandad + family are most important to him . We do get on really well + have wanted the same things from our life together . I'm a fortunate woman . We met and were married within 13 months . I was 23 and he was 24 . It's good to know that there are still some good men out there and I appreciate mine lots .

I am lucky too, and have a completely adorable (and handsome!) husband!! We've been together almost 9 years - got together at 18, and we're now 27 :eek:
In April, we'll have been married for 5 years too - and have a beautiful daughter together!
He's my best friend, makes me laugh with completely random things, the only man in the world I ever want to be with! :heartpuls
