Re: Let's see where this goes...
Love: Smart as hell, funny, considerate & very warm personality
Dislike (I don't hate-- strong word-- anything about my H): Sometimes while grocery shopping he doesn't pay attention to detail (doesn't buy HE detergent for our front loader for example, but regular) and we have to return some items. Its a PITA, but not a deal breaker. He likes to do a lot around the house himself and rig things. It works, but sometimes I think he makes it way more complicated than it has to be lol. More intricate/cool does not always equal better lol.
Oh dear. Things are gonna get heavy over there.
One woman hates that her H can't stay off drugs*, and another hates that her H is letting his mother interfere with their marriage. Eeeks.
*Apparently they're divorcing. He is in rehab right now.
I love DH's sense of humor.
I dislike that he leaves dishes in the bedroom over night. The only thing that should be in a bedroom is a cup of water.
Love: He's supportive and patient. He's funny and loving.
"Hate" : He's shy. When I introduced him to my friends...they thought he was stuck up...but he's just shy. The total opposite of me. But I like to say we arent opposites..we compliment each other. lol
Love: He's a lot of fun
Hate: He eats in bed. UGH!! crumbs in the sheets!
Betty this is my H too and it drives me insane. He's constantly bringing home the wrong thing because he didn't pay close attention to the list. It's also my dislike.
My love is that H is one of the sweetest, kindest, most compassionate people I've ever met. He's a wonderful father too and very good with DD.

We miss you and love you always, little firecrackers!
I love how good he is at taking care of me, and how patient he is at what I sometimes feel like is just me being lazy (even though it's really about me being sick and unable to do things).
I hate how he grinds his teeth in his sleep. If I fall asleep before him, no big deal. But if I am still up reading or something, I want to punch him in the jaw.
Love: how he is so willing to compromise with me, how great a listener and encourager he is, that he makes sure I don't need/want anything before he relaxes, that he's great with our finances, how he's always complimenting me and telling me how happy he is to be married to me.
Dislike: how he can't seem to put things in the dishwasher. The sink, yes. The counter above the dishwasher, yes. Why not the actual dishwasher?! That he accumulates dishes by his computer.
I love how honest and strong DH is and how really will do the right thing, no matter what. He never takes the easy road, he takes the right one. I admire his unwavering moral compass, his energy, and his ability take charge. (I also like watching him do 500 pushups each and every morning.)
I strongly dislike his OCD and the fact he is a slob at home, but a neat freak at work. Although, I wonder if I should be thankful that he can leave work at work. I'd still like for him to find some middle ground and stay there. .
My FI does this exact same thing as well. He once came home with tofu "cream cheese" not even thinking twice because the container was labeled like tofu CREAM CHEESE, so he only read the bigger print and didn't think twice.
Check us out
This is one of by biggest dislikes also! The dishwasher is RIGHT THERE! It's really not hard. He also will say he'll clear the dishes and will take them into the kitchen and leave them sitting on the counter, without even scraping them off or rinsing them off. *sigh* I also dislike how easily he loses track of time (well, pretty much everything) when playing video games. I've told him I'm going to install a giant clock that makes noise every 15 or 30 minutes to remind him.
I love how caring and supportive he is of me, and what a great "pet father" he is to our cats. I love that he recognizes when I've had a rough day and makes dinner and gives me a neck, shoulder, or foot massage. I also love that when he makes dinner he doesn't get *every* dish in the kitchen dirty.
There's more I love, but I don't want to be too sappy.
