My husband is soooo wonderful, he makes all normal husband look bad! (hee hee hee hee hee)
First off, he is a wonderful provider. He works hard -- long hours, some time away from home, and he never complains. (He is active duty military.) He wanted me to take a break from the stress of working and stay home and "just be his wife" ... and it is wonderful! We are absolutely debt-free (including our home), and we regularly give to charity. He is just so wise and reasonable and sensible when it comes to money-matters.
Secondly, he is the nicest, kindest, sweetest, most considerate person I have ever met. He has never raised his voice to me, called me a name, or said anything unkind or rude to me. He listens to me, appreciates my input and advice, and loves to make decisions together. He never goes to bed without kissing me goodnight (if we are together), and he never ends a telephone call without telling me he loves me.
He is also quite romantic ... often surprising me with cards, presents, footrubs, romantic weekends away... you name it. He would rather spend time with me ... just doing chores ... than doing anything else. He loves to hold my hand, and he is a wonderful kisser, too!
He lets me be me... and, as a result, I am free to volunteer at a number of wonderful non-profit organizations ... and we are also a rescue-dog foster family! He has cheerfully allowed me to accumulate an impressive number of rescue kitties, and he uncomplainingly scoops litter boxes twice a day. And he has been so supportive as we are now on our 5th foster dog! (The first 4 have new parents and homes...yay!) He attends fundraisers and events with me, and encourages me in all that I do.
Best of all, he prays for me. And with me. And we study the bible together. We worship together, and we praise God together. He is a wonderful, godly man and is the spiritual leader of our household. His faith is strong, and his commitment to Christ and our marriage is solid.
He is truly a gift from God!
This past summer, we had 6 days in a row of temperatures over 112 degrees. I was miserable. So, he emptied out our hot tub, filled it with cold water, added 80 pounds of ice ... and surprised me with my own personal "cold tub!" (Complete with an icy cold glass of lemonade! Is he totally sweet, or what?
Happy sigh.....

I personally have a wonderful spouse. She is my life. She works very hard to keep our home comfortable, to raise my children, take care of our finances, and then works on the side as well. She does all this for love i'm sure because I have no unearned wealth, and am not that great of a catch. She suffers from a chronic ailment which prevents us from being intimate a lot but that is okay for both of us because although we can't we still know that the love and want is still there. I'll cherish her for the rest of my life.

Yes...I do. I have never had a man treat me as well as he does. He has built me a brand new wonderful home, given me 2 wonderful kids, bought me a car I could drive in the snow, bought me silly things that I really wanted..but didn't need.. like; a water purification system and a built in closet from closet world, tells me he loves me every day, and works 70 or so hours a week so that I can stay home and take care of the kids. But it's more than just that. He is everything to me...a friend, a husband, a lover...and he tells me he would die for me. He puts up with the quirky things that I do, and just laughs!! Before we were married...he took a demotion from work because we were seeing each other..and we weren't supposed to. There's much more, but I don't want to bore you. He is very special to me!!

Ahhh.... let me count the ways:
1) He cares about the things I feel: even the smallest little problem is important to him.
2) He is very attractive, has not gained weight or let himself go.
3) He is faithful and trusting; and he sees our fidelity as a positive thing, not a sacrifice.
4) He works hard, and doesn't mind doing so to keep the bills paid, and we share everything equally.
5) He's not above helping out with household chores, since we both work fulltime.
6) He has a fun sense of humor, and tries to stay cheerful no matter how stressful times may be.
7) He has faith in God, and practices religion with a respect and awe that inspires our children.
8) His family-- brothers, sisters, parents, aunts, uncles, etc... are very important to him; and he encourages my family to be important to us as well.
9) He doesn't squander a lot of money on things that do not contribute to the benefit of our family.
10) He is looking forward to our retirement; enjoys the time we spend alone together; yet he is looking forward to the years when we will be grandparents.

I have a great husband. He not only listens but works with me to solve problems that arise in our marriage. He is very loving and affectionate, not to mention sexy. He is a friend as well as a lover. He is a trustworthy, godly man. We have been married 21 years and love each other more every day.

Yes, this December will be 2 yrs that we know each other, we got married in June. What I mean by great is someone who thinks about me all the time, who cares how I feel, someone who communicates with me all the time. A man who respects me and my decisions...... A man who is there for me all the time and accepts me for better or worse, this is a great man.
