It seems like most of the Posts that have to do with our hubbies or boyfriends are full of negativity. How they are not supportive and so on. Or whether or not we should leave them.
How about those of us who's hubbies are supportive and we want to stay. I just wanted to hear something positive. I have a great husband ( of course he's had some bumps in the road) but he loves us and takes care of us.
So, ladies, tell let's talk about the great daddies and husbands we have.
Yes there are good men out there, the only problem is that it takes time to get to know a person before jumping into bed with them and making babies. Although me and my ex are no longer together we knew each other as friends for three months before we actually "dated" on and off as friends and then it took another four months before we became exclusive and another two months before we had sex, Albeit our marriage ended but after 20 years and after 25 years of being together as a couple. And even though our marriage ended we have always been able to communicate, we are cordial, no jealousies, we have both moved on and he has even remarried, I have no problems with his new wife, she has no problems with me. He didn't complain about having to pay child support and I wasn't gripping constantly about the amount of child support I was getting, I knew it was enough to support our daughter and that is what it was for, not to support me I was working and didn't need to be supported financially.
In short we were grown ups about our dating/relationship/marriage and divorce and didn't act like hihg schoolers. See if you're going to choose to play grown up games, you'd better be a grown up.

In my opinion, no on else will ever compare to my wonderful husband. My provider, protector and best friend.
I married my high school sweetheart, so there's been a lot of growing pains. We've been through a lot together but I wouldn't take any of it back, because I'm right where I want to be. Every time I see him with our dd, I realize I made the right choice. He's not perfect but most days he comes pretty close. He's always been supportive of me and my dreams. I started my own business and it's taken a while to take off (between getting pregnant and graduate school) and he's always been supportive. He's my marketing department (for free lol, there's no way we'd be able to afford him) and he's been my biggest cheerleader since we got back together almost 11 years ago.
Coey G, I would like to ask you something. What is it about that 20-25 yr mark that so many couples split. My parents divorced around there 25th yr. and my sister had serious issues when she was married 20 yrs. I wonder what it is? Maybe we get so wrapped up in our children that we don't put enough into our relationships? IDK, but I do know I've been with my husband 14 yrs and it scares me sometimes that something will go wrong. We try to have date night once a week, and we still laugh together and enjoy eachother, but I've always noticed that pattern around the 20 yr mark. Maybe I'm just sensitve to that because my parents split up at that time. What do you think?
