Re: POLL: My DH is amazing because _______
My Blog Picture A Day Blog
This, pretty much. Also, he is an amazing co-parent. He is really an equal and does it all.
He really took care of me last week. He attemped dinners or ordered in, brought me milkshakes, took care of all of the housework, went to pick up my prescriptions, etc.. He went out at an ungodly hour to buy me a humidifier and makes sure that it's filled up every night and that I have all my pills, tissues, etc. before I go to bed.
I could brag on so much. He'll run any errand I ask. He always picks up carry out, gets the groceries every week, splits all the chores with me and doesn't complain. He watched our 11 month old nephew on Monday b/c my sister needed help and I was still worried about picking the baby up w/ my germs. He's good with our niece and nephew and loves them so much. He's going to be a great dad one day. He's good natured and doesn't have a temper and has a huge heart. He loves our dog and probably deals with a majority of his care.
I don't complain about him much on here, honestly. We fight, he has flaws, but I just try to remind myself of all of the things he does do.
Sorry I went on a tangent. This kind of makes me teary eyed lol, but he is a good person and I'm probably still a little emotional from last week. That's all the sappiness you'll get from me for awhile.

Ditto.
As ugly, bloated and fat as I feel some days, for some reason the man can't keep his hands off of me and thinks that I am "sexy", "beautiful", etc.
He's the kind of person you can't help but like. He makes everyone feel important, valued, etc. And he can always make me laugh. Honestly, seeing how much other people love him reminds me of how wonderful he is (for example, I stopped by his new workplace before the holidays and just about every person in the building made a point to tell me how much they like and enjoy working with him).
He supported me leaving work full time to do what I love (=several part time jobs for less $$) and didn't blink an eye. He wants me to pursue my dreams.
He loves my family. And our dog. He's so amazing with the dog that I am that much more excited to see him with a baby.
He doesn't seem to see how much weight I've gained with pregnancy. He still wants me.
He gives me freedom. Last year I went on a Mexican Cruise with my girlfriends. This month I am going to NYC for a week. I love that he doesn't hold me back from doing things I want to do when he isn't interested in doing them. Even when they are pricey.
Several other reasons as well
This, exactly, 100% all of it... except replace dog with cats and we have an outside baby.
Nobody can dislike my DH, it's like impossible or something. He's really fun, he laughs a lot, he doesn't take himself too seriously. He can find something to talk about with anyone. We joke that he could walk into a room full of CEOs or a room full of hobo's and make friends/ strike up a great conversation. He just has a way about him that makes others feel at ease. A few of the girls here have met him and it reminded me how open he is... about the boards/ meeting new friends unconventionally, etc. Seeing him in a group setting is the surefire way for me to remind myself why I fell in love with him and how great he really is... and suddenly the fact that he's messy seems so insignificant.
I agree. It does it for me every time. I know he's funny and likable but to see him interacting with a group of people reminds me that everybody else sees the same things that I do.
Ditto this!!!
Cut the Crap - Weight loss journey of a Few Fat Chicks
Absolutely this, even more so lately now that I've gotten bigger & am nearing the end of this pregnancy.... I swear, some days he literally carries this entire household. I would be lost without him.
And I have to echo Amy & Amanda's comment about always thinking I'm beautiful/attractive & telling me so, even on the days where I just can't see it.
He is willing to do anything to provide for his family. You would never hear of him quitting a job because it is boring or he just didn't like it.
He is the perfect compliment to me. I am not a worrier, but he is. I don't think about our future in a financial sense, but he is always making plans for it...things like that.
Those are just a few of the many reasons!
Besides being a true friend who listens when I ramble on about nothing..
He makes me dinner every night during the week because he is home first and I have a crap commute. He even does the dishes. I take weekend duty and he is happy with that.
