Even with the anonymity of the internet, I think many will vote but not express their feeling.

I am completely happy with my dh. I always knew how amazing he is but these last few months have really proven it beyond a doubt. I wish I could be as great a wife to him as he is a dh to me but it gives me something to aspire to.

He is not perfect (though pretty darn close IMO) but he is perfect for me. So I give him a 10. Not sure what he would give me these days but let's say it has been a challenging year to date and I can only hope life gets a bit less challenging as the year continues and hoping for a smooth and easy 2015!

Mr Kroshka I would give my Shipping Order via USPS a 0! Not at all happy with them. :nono:

I'd vote 100% except he has no interest in diamonds :-o ;(
He's really the best and most delightful surprise in my life.

In terms of support, trust, love and care I give him a 10. There's no one else in this world I would turn to or want having my back besides him :angel:

Love and support, 10!

Is it awful that I tell DH, that it's impossible for him to be perfect because if he was perfect, he'd be a WOMAN! :dance:

Very happy. That's why I took the ring.

It's different than any other relationship. I don't mean that in a glassy eyed love-groupie sort of way. This is the first relationship of my life where we both work hard to meet the needs of the other. He is 100% "there". He listens intently and communicates well. He will do anything humanly possible to care for me and my children, his friends or his parents. He's great at hugs and listening when I'm having a bad day. We have the same general life goals and the same way of trouble solving. He's a nerd, I'm a nerd. He's good at things I am not (and vice-versa) and we know this makes us strong. We're friends and can speak our minds without reserve. We fight well together, too.

The supported, fair and present person he is helps me be my most even keeled me.

As a domestic abuse survivor, I had to learn that healthy relationships were not full of chaos and drama. It's taken a while to chose a man like my fiance. There is no drama or movie plot. Just he and I plugging along and realizing we make such a good team we should get married and keep being a team. It's not a fairytale, it's even better.

I voted 100%. He is pretty darn close to perfect. He loves me with his whole heart. He is giving, kind and considerate. I have no idea how I got so lucky.

Moneymeiser, I'm very happy you found this wonderful man. I wish you a lifetime of happiness as you two begin your new life together.
You sound so happy when you speak of your fiancé.

I gave my husband a 7. He's pretty good, but there's always room for improvement ;))

Someone asked that question on another board, and the discussion continued merrily until some buzzkiller said "I just had him deported." End of discussion. :lol:

Can I vote 1000000% happy? My husband reminds me that prince charming totally exists :)

And I was actually thinking stock options for some reason! So glad Mr. K got their first!

I'd say 8? He snores like a bandsaw so I've slept in a different room for going on 18 months. And he's not one for picking up after himself..at all. Or doing things around the house in a timely manner so that it either languishes for months/years, I do it myself, or he finally does it after listening to me ask, then strongly suggest, then threaten.

See if he's amenable to going for a sleep study. Rather than snoring, he might have sleep apnea. If so, he can get a device (CPAP machine) that will improve his health and the quality of both of your sleep.

Agreed. Obstructive Sleep Apnea is actually pretty bad for you.

Is sleep apnea where you quit breathing and then you like gasp for air again? He doesn't do that. I do check to make sure-not as often anymore since we don't sleep together. He's like the loudest breather on the planet too, so it's easy enough to tell. For a while I thought extra weight might play a part in it, but he snores just as much as he did when we first got married and we were both a lot thinner. He had his septum worked on about 6 years ago and that helped for a little bit. I'll sure check into it tho and see what I can find out-it's worth a shot!

Don't be so sure that you can tell he doesn't have sleep apnea. He needs to have a sleep study done. My DH snored but I never felt he was not breathing,etc. But, the sleep study showed he has moderate apnea. He uses a dental device (molded mouthpiece that keeps his lower jaw and upper jaw set to keep his throat from closing basically and it works) and he no longer snores.

As for me, DH and I have been married 33 years and I'm just about as happy as I can be. He's a wonderful loving supportive, faithful man who loves me unconditionally. I couldn't ask for more, but I would never give anyone a perfect score as no human is perfect. We are extremely content with our lives and each other.

Signs of sleep apnea are loud frequent snoring; gasping, choking or snorting sounds; wheezing; or not breathing and then resuming.

DH and FIL each have a CPAP machine for sleep apnea, but their symptoms sound different.

A sleep study is definitely worth checking into. Even if it turns out your husband is just snoring with no apnea, there are remedies for that, too.

I gave Mr St. Clare an 8.

H's pretty darn perfect except for two major issues:

He's a hoarder and the house can get out of control quickly if I don't catch it.

He snores so badly we've had to d the separate room solution. And he won't go for a study.

Other than that he's close to perfect for me.

I deducted a point for his snoring and his inability to wrap food items properly or to close the lid fully before putting them in the fridge. Drives. Me. Batty.
