What type of relationship do you have with your husband?

I love spending time and just being with my hubby. He is honestly my best friend. I miss him when he is gone and I cannot wait for him to get home.

I have talked to some ladies that just can't wait until their husbands go to work so they can do whatever they want to do.

Slow on the go; he hates that I am more spiritual than worldly, the romance is a tealight flame....we act like we have been married for 40 years...and I'm only 37.:(
I like the leaving for work, vacations, anything.

Jason & I were engaged within six weeks, and married at four months. We met and became best friends instantly and lived together for a year. Fast forward six years, it still feels fresh & new, can't understand how some say marriage takes work. We are opposite as night & day - food likes & dislikes, hobbies, etc., but it works for us!!

We were married eight weeks from the day we met and still have that love at first sight dippy-ness when we're together even though we've been married fourteen years.

I hate that he has to go to work everyday. I miss him something awful and he feels the same. He's my best friend, soul-mate all the cheezy stuff.

My husband is also my best friend. I don't get to see him much since he works 3rd shift and is asleep when I'm wake and vice versa. It's driving us both nuts.

My husband and I have been together 10 years, after being friends for about 2 years (and before that, we hated each other!) We have a lot of common interests, and generally share the same opinion about things like movies and music (altho at present, politics is a forbidden topic in the house, in the efforts of not screaming at each other.)

We're both pretty high spirited, and this is a good thing. My previous boyfriend and I weren't *capable* of arguing, even when we needed to, and it created a lot of problems.

He understands me and I understand him. We're pretty dippy "in love" most of the time, and most of my friends have commented from time to time about how we seem to have the perfect relationship (without being all stepfordish...)

I couldn't get along without him. And after 10 years, I'm still interested in sleeping with him, which astonishes me, because I never could keep interested in that in other relationships.

Hubby and are the best friends! Before we fall in love we fall in friendship and that's the base to our relationship. We decided early in our marriage that we would not bring friends or strangers into our house or our marriage and that I think, has helped keep our relationship strong. We love outdoors and though hubby is in the military he pretends that I'm better than him at hicking :-/ My life is divided in two parts, before and after I met him, we complement each other in all possible ways, he is water and I'm fire so we have the perfect balance!

We met in September 1996 and our relationship got serious in November 1996. We got married in November 7, 1997 and a week after that (11-12-97) we became the proud parents of a baby boy!! Two years and 3 months after in February 21, 2000 we became the proud parents of a baby girl and six months after that we closed the baby factory for good :-D

I agree with both. When my husband is gone I get more housework done and do things around the house. When he is home, I'm more tempted to sit on the couch with him and watch TV or talk to him. . . kinda clingy i suppose, but I always look forward to him coming home and seeing him. I miss him when we are apart and sometimes I just want him to go away!

I am a mix of both. He is my best friend, but I look forward to his 24 hour shifts sometimes so I can have my time on the computer with no guilt. Best of both worlds. Now that said, I don't sleep hardly at all when he is at work anymore. I was fine for the first 6-8 months, but ever since then I just can't sleep. No idea why, I'm not conscientiously worried about him.

Anyway, we can hang out together for days on end. I work from home and have my own fitness training biz, I have many times ditched work to hang out with him. Not good for biz, but worth it. lol

We have a blast with friends or just off by ourselves. Half the time we can't figure out which we'd like to do on days off cause it really doesn't matter.

After 18 years of being together I'm thankful that we are more in love now than ever before.

My husband and I are the perfect example of opposites attract. After almost 9 years together, 7 married, I still have the hots for him and love him very much, but we are very different. We don't like hardly any of the same tv shows, movies, music, etc. We do enjoy sports and spending time with our kids, so that balances out. It gives us a chance to spend time together, but then have our alone time. :)

I can't wait to see my husband every day after work. I miss him when he's not here. After TJ goes to bed, I don't like when he goes to run errands, even if it's to get me something I need, like cold medicine or (eek!) tampons. I wish neither of us had to work elsewhere, so we could spend more time together, but that just isn't how life works.

Sigh. We'll probably want to strangle each other once we retire and DO get to spend all day long together!

My husband and I are good friends as well. We dated/lived together for 4 years before we married, then we were married for 4 years before having kids, so we were able to really establish a strong relationship. In a way, we grew up together. I think that our relationship has changed a bit since having a baby, but I'm sure that is normal. We like to go out and have fun together, and we like to travel together. I would say that the thing that has changed the most is the sex life....hard to find time, lol, and a crying or screaming kid is not the best aphrodisiac. Aside from that, we get along well and enjoy each others' company. I think we both wish we had more time for just the two of us.

I used to hate it when he had to travel for work or had to be away from me, but I am slowly more accepting of his travel for work. It is a little easier now that I have a toddler to keep me company. I always hate being alone and his job has moved us far away from friends and family.

I met my hubby at church. He was my daughter's Sunday school teacher. The first time I laid eyes on him I thought to myself that he was the most beautiful man I had ever seen. He asked me on a date a year later and we married in a month and a half and we have been married 2 yeas now and I am very much in love with him.

I think for the most part my husband and I have a good relationship but there are times. I feel very stupid around my husband. I am not as smart as he is and I think my blindness gets in the way.
