General Relationship DiscussionAlthough anyone can post anywhere on Talk About Marriage, this section is for people interested in general relationship and marriage advice.
what makes you a good spouse?? or what makes your spouse a good spouse?
in a moment of reflection in my marriage... i'd say i tried my hardest to give my husband everything that he needed. he's a good provider financially, and i like to think i'm a good provider for everything else (and also contributing financially). i'm a listener, an encourager, a supporter and considerate to his needs and wants in every way that i could be.
now the real question... was it all in vain? i sure hope not.
What makes me a good spouse is that I never stop trying to be better at it. I believe there is always room for improvement and he feels the same. We inspire each other.
I don't know for sure...I can speculate but I know why I keep him around.
He is my best friend.
He makes me laugh..I have peed myself.
Sex.
We like the same movies.
He listens to me.
He values my opinion.
He knows just how I like my coffee.
He dosent judge me.
He tolerates me talking about shoes, makeup.
I hope I return what he gives me.
He can talk to me about anything.
I'm not a pod person and have my own views.
He will get me any song I want, even if he dosent like it.
Sex.
We like being around each other.
I like reading to him and I like him to read to me.
We are best friends.
Sex as well
We love each other, support each other.
I don't know... just... everything. No matter what all we have been thru, we can turn to each other and know we will be ok.
I've stopped asking in my head why he keeps me around and just accepted that he loves me.
That, and no doubt my ability to hit the comic book store with him for hours without getting bored.
I love going to comic book shops...I have to stay out or I will spend all my money. In one of my shoe pics, I have some of my comic books, I have more in storage.
It's not thousands maybe a couple hundred. Maybe. I like going because the guys in the shops don't care how hot you are, they only care if you know the difference between batman and dark knight series.
If you are a noob you arent worth the time of day. And they smell wonderful.
But that's sweet. I got to game stop with mine and don't bother him to much with what could I get. Its also another place that you better know what you are talking about.
If you like Xbox 360 over the ps3 than you better be able to back it up with good reasons. Other wise you are not even worth waiting breath on.

haha Love it!
I did start collecting for a while (mostly Xmen) but I didn't want to get too hooked. I know how I can get with those types of things! Now if I go to the store it's because I'm getting something for H, or I'm with him while he shops.
