Qualities of your spouse/partner

I am the type that let's my wife know how much and why I love her. I've even started some discussions here praising her for many of her great qualities. The first and foremost quality that is her strongest point is she is a very hard working woman. She is strong as well. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

An excellent discussion! You are quite right everyone has got his/her plus and minus points. No one is perfect. Even I would have got many nagative points, which I cannot visualise myself, rather I would not like to see those points from a rational angle or open mind. It is my spouse, who tells me or say point out to me my negative points, and wherever possible, I try to improve upon those points. My spouse is very caring and she is very good cook and she has a very good imagination power. She would serve me sumputuous meal and try to prepare new dishes, whenever possible. She would see to it that I should get some new and tredy clothes and woollens, so I should look smarter. I on my part, always tell her, her positive points and do not miss any opportunity to appreciate her positive gestures. I believe in expressing my appreciation to her, so that she could know that she is 'SPECIAL'to me. Have a great day! Deepak

I feel, manifestation of love is very important in life. Time is short and we should live it to the fullest and what could be more appropriate than giving and showing your feelings for the ppl you care about. Gone are those days when we used to be behind curtains and strived hard between 'dos' and 'donots' in life! Dear, since partner/ spouse is not applicable in my case, I would tell about the ppl I care about. Yes, I do make them feel better by telling them lovewords and doing gestures, even though I am a very shy person. And, ofcourse, like all I justlove the pampering I get from them. Thanks for a nice post.

For the most part, I must admit I just say I love you to my girlfriend, although at times we've discussed why we're perfect for each other. My main gripe is we're living together and she dosn't want to become my spouse. I've never been married,never had a wedding and Iwould like one. But as I just said on a previous discussion about looks, I would not want anyone else. And I have told her that.

I always tell him why! Because he is cute, smart, and MINE! But mostly because he is smart. I also thank him when he washes the floor, vacuums, and does the laundry. He compliments me quite a bit, too. That is yet another nice thing about him.

My boyfriend is a very sweet and generous guy, and that's what I really love about him. He puts me first before himself, and he tells me that what he really wants is for me to be happy. And I do tell him that I appreciate all the things that he does for me. I tell him I love him everyday and let it go at that, but sometimes I let him know why he's so special to me.

I always become very verbal and physical in showing my appreciation.

Oh you bet I say I love you as well as tell how much I appreciate all that he does for not only me but for our boys as well as other friends and family members as well!!! He's the most dedicated employee that I have ever met - he goes way above and beyond his responsibilities at work - including when one of his bosses was diagnosed with cancer - he would leave the office and take whatever this person needed - whether it was work or pick up medication or whatever - he was always there!!! He's the kind of guy that even if you have made him mad as a friend - he won't tell you and when you get stuck and need a hand - he will be there for you always!!! And as for dealing with me - you have to give him props - it's never easy being married to someone with mental illness and all that goes along with that mess!!!

there is only one excellent quality about my spouse and that is , he is currently living with another poor woman, I feel sorry for her but he is now her problem, and no not once in the 27 years we were married did he praise me for anything,I was there for his use and abuse mentality only.

Relationships are to be ENJOYED rather ENDURED.The more we focus on negative qualities of our partners,the more we break the love bond.I believe that no person on the earth is totally perpect,hence if the manneer we nagg over the bad qualities of our partner is done to us definitely we would not like that.why partners make remembering those nasty qualities is simply because in our hearts we find it hard to forgive because those things have taking the place of LOVE.Forgiveness those not change the past but it certainly brightens&expands the future.celebrate your partner and you will discover how relevant& efficient he/she is to you.correct in love.

Hi SViswan, We are always telling one another why we love eachother. Not just that we do. I thank him on a daily basis, he takes really good care of me. He thanks me for many things too, such as doing the laundry or cooking. Things I should be doing anyway, I stay at home. He cooks and cleans and I thank him for that. I thank him for working hard, cos he has a pretty strenuous job. We are pretty affectionate, and I love it! I think its important and its what keeps us so close and in love. Appreciation is better than love to me, or should I say its the bigger part of love. Because Love means many things to me. Bay xx

My husband and I have a wonderful relationship in the way we tell each other we love one another. He tells me he loves me with little things like always bringing me home a mountain dew, and I do the same for him in my own different ways. The qualities that I love about my husband: his intelligence, integrity, humor, long beautiful hair, and the balance he brings me! Thank you for this discussion!

It's a nice discussion u have started.In my case I am never good at communicating my feelings verbally.I do try to show my affection and appreciation through my actions.I am too shy to put them in to words I guess.

I am one that tells my husband that I love him and why. I thank him all the time for everything he does for me. I am a SAHM to 2 young boys and my husband works full-time. When he gets home from work he does the laundry and feeds the dog. He also helps me with dishes and dinner if I need it and also watches the boys for a bit to give me a break. I let him know all the time how much it means to me that he helps me like that. He truly is a wonderful man.

I love my husbands habbit of always calling me and checking what i want and need and if am okay even im really okay and having fun. He also love to have fun jokes with me and play baby between me and him.

Yeah, I see your point there. It's easier to point out the bad in a person than a good thing about him or her. I personally don't say anything if I know it isn't nice about another person. I keep those opinions to myself. However, the best quality my husband posses would be his brain. He is the most brilliant man I know and he does have different ideas that not a lot of people have thought of yet. So, that's something to brag about, I suppose. LOL.

my hubby loves to pamper me, and yes i appreciate him so i pamper him as well. i always say i love him and tell him how important he is to me.

Having had some very bad past experiences makes it very easy to notice and appreciate good qualitys in not only my boyfriend but all people in my life. I try to frequently show and let them all know how much I value them. It is so important lest they feel taken for granted and go away.

My husband is: hard working-he just came off a 12 hour overtime shift tonight-he works for a major airline as a mechanic. He is also romantic-much more so than I am. He remembers specific things I wore years ago to specific events. He is very loving.

If you are really in love, there are no reasons you can give as to why you love your other half. However, I would tell my boyfriend how much he meant to me at times he least expected. Whether it's a kiss on the cheek followed by "I love you" in the morning before he leaves the house or a bouquet of roses on his desk at work, a show of appreciation doesn't hurt. Every little action counts! Communication is important, so it's good to voice out your dislikes or something that he has done to annoy you. I always have a hard time to voice out right then, so I'll keep quiet at that moment (so I won't lash out at him) then tell him what I felt later on.
