Default Re: is your husband your best friend...

He definitely is. I feel sorry for anyone who doesn't feel that way. We both just finished school in the spring and I have a school-based job now and he will be starting law school next week, so while we're more up and running now, we had all summer to just hang out together. We did a lot of traveling and seeing family and friends, but the majority of our time has just been us and the dogs, especially this past month when we moved across the country to a city where we knew no one. I never get bored of being around him, even if we're just chilling. He might be playing a video game and I'm reading, but it's so nice being there. We do things together too, watch movies or shows, play games, exercise, discuss anything and everything. He is the person I tell everything to, great or small, happy or sad, and he empathizes and sympathizes with me about all of it.

Sometimes I will talk to one friend about our deeper problems (no sex, his sexual problems mostly) but it is not a complaining talk, it is a "we're stuck and maybe if I had another perspective I could understand him better or maybe it can spark us in another direction". I only talk to her because I know she has the utmost respect and love for me and a profound respect for my choices, including my choice of spouse (others would most likely think I'm crazy for marrying someone who I knew I'd have sexual problems with, but she respects me and talks to me in a productive manner, not a destructive "just get divorced" way).
