Does he enjoy sitting in watching a DVD with you? Does he like to watch a chick flick? Or is he the type that likes to go down to the pub at the weekend and chill out with his friends? Does he like to cook? Does he help out with the housework? Does he enjoy watching the football match with a can of beer in his hand?

My partner loves to cook, he likes to watch chick flicks, he doesn't like sport, he doesn't like to drink except on special occasions, he likes to help keep the house clean and he loves to be with me as much as he can. He doesn't like to smother me but enjoys being in my company. We also enjoy similar interests and have the same goals. We rarely argue, except when we are both tired. We both love to go to the cinema, we like to see places of historic interest such as castles and we like to eat out.

One word = CAVE MAN

Yours sounds great!

this is mine; he is loving but not in a mushy way. He likes to spend time with his family, loves a crowd for Sunday lunch. Is not appreciative of my cooking in a vocal way but clears his plate! Doesn't drink much (comes from years of being on call 24hrs a day), enjoys socialising but is equally happy slobbing out in front of the tv with me. Not into chick flicks but will put up with some of them for me. Not a macho man, but a good honest trustworthy man. Is well thought of in our town and has done community work for most of his adult life (10years as a retained firefighter, 14 years as a special constable now a town councillor).

He's a good father and a doting grandfather. Finds it easier to show he cares by doing practical things for people. Is completely supportive of me and helps around the house a lot especially when I'm not able to do things. Loves DIY and is very good at it. More likely to take the mick out of me than tell me he loves me but that's ok 'cos I'm the same.

Far from it, he's bloody annoying when he wants to be, stubborn, a gas bag (in more ways than one sadly) and all other irritating men things but yes I think he's great. (there really is no accounting for taste is there?):sneaky:

My husband and I are complementary in many ways.

I'm outgoing, he's more of an introvert.

I'm a big talker, he is a selective listener

I react, he *thinks* before he reacts

I tell him I love him, he often tells me 'ditto' :rolleyes:

I say what I feel, he feels much but does not say it.

He also shows his love for me by doing practical things for me -- gassing up my car, getting my inspection sticker, etc.

It took me awhile to realize that just because he does not say "I love you" often does not in any way mean that he doesn't feel it often.

I love getting into bed beside him each night just to feel the warmth of his skin next to mine :-4

My husband is loyal, kind, generous, accepting and nonjudgmental.

I love him for bringing these fine character traits into my life.

When I look at my husband and say to him, "I find you very attractive", he looks at the ceiling and says, "May she *never* come out of her fog!"

i dont have one . but when i do, he will be the very loving, kind, compassionate and enjoy sex as much as i do. he must be confident enough to let me follow.

Feels like a Bent song.

'I looove my man... When he's goood on me...'

Well I don't have any man, nor woman in fact.

I'm a poor lonesome cowboy...

well i'll start by saying he will never get to see this thread or he might just fall for you helefra, he's a big stargate fan & doctor who & pretty much all sci - fi, he loves deal or no deal, the grand prix & loads of other tv shows, yup he's the real deal remote control man, is mostly a home biddy but works really hard & doesent mind doing his fair share of housework, he falls asleep in front of the tv a lot but gets an energy rush at bedtime (ideal really)

I had to kiss a lot of frogs before I found my prince.

Let's just say... I won the lottery when I got him.

Hi people

My first hubby put me on a pedestal. Worked hard for a living, loved his two children and no doubt, if he hadn't passed away, would have loved the third. He loved me beyond anything else, did loads of things for me. I guess the only fault he had was that he never knew what depression I was going trhough at the time of my third pregnancy. He needed little sleep but would always sit with me when I was in bed and stroked my head until I got sleepy, then went downstairs. However when I woke in the morning he was always cuddling me. He would do anything for anyone and when he passed away there has never been since then any bad comments about him. He was one in a million!

My second hubby, to whom I'm now married and have been for six years, is a different kettle of fish. He tries so very, very hard to make our relationship work. He tries to love his 3 step-children. But there's something deep down troubling him so he's going to go to counselling to sort himself out. I don't think he knows how to handle women or at least how to handle me! He does try but sometimes we're like ships that pass in the night. He is a lorry driver and there is usually an empty space in the bed but I lay on his side so it feels better. I know when he looks at me he loves me totally & utterly beyond any other woman he has known.

I have been very lucky in my life to know & have known two such men.

Love, light & blessings to all!

Annie
