Hi what are the two things that you love the most about your mate? Mine is that I loved his sense of humor and also I loved that he accepted me withput any qualifying at all. He took me as I was faults and all. He did this much better than my own parents did. and I really really loved this about him What are the two things about your mate that really irks you Mine is that he always took his worries inward and ducked off to hide and mope over them while I wanted him to confide in me and we could share the problem. Also he could never remember to subtract his withdrawls from our joint checking account which led to several overdrafts.

I am glad you got what I wanted to say, Hatley!:-) I have loveliest wife, one that any husband could dream of, honestly; but it disturbs me how she starts caring less for her own health and well being when taking care of others. I do adore her social work, her kind and caring heart, her feelings for under privileged, her sense of responsibility towards others etc. but sometime she gets over-involved and risks her own health and well being! And that bothers and irks me seriously! Maybe I am just being selfish.

My husband has a great sense of humor... he's also VERY charismatic. He gets along with everyone!!!!!! Also, he will not lie to me. We set the rule early on in our relationship- we don't want to make the same mistakes we did in the past... so we tell each other everything, nothing is too bad/good(lol). He has a bad temper though and it ticks me off because he'll be over it in like 10 minutes while I'm still fuming!!! Which starts it all over again!! hehe

Isn't that the truth most couples one is the quick tempered one and the other the slow fumer. My husband would lose his temper quick andbe over it while I was still ready to kick something. Also I think a lot of people who get cold easily unfortunately marry someone who can sit in shirtsleeves in a room that is at least only sixty degrees.

The two things I love most about my husband would have to be his caring/sincere way he is, and his sense of humor. No matter what happens he can always make me feel better. By his simple ways in which him who he is.

Doesn't it always help when one's mate has a sense of humor and is caring and sincere with it. My husband was also like that and was so easy to live with.

What I love the most about my husband is he is caring and can always pick me up when I am down. What irks me about him is he is always overdrawing the bank act. and he doesn't know how to judge time.

What I love about my mate? 1. He's corny to a point he's actually funny. 2. He's a mirror image of who I am--he's happy when I'm happy, and when we screw up things are bound to get whacked. 3. His no-nonsense way of telling me stuff like I eat too much or I'm too mean to other people. Nowadays people are just so scared to tell how they feel, it's a bit good to hear some truth sometimes. What I hate about my mate? 1. Sometimes he talks too much. And on some occassions, he talks more than I do. 2. He's a morrir image of who I am--when we fight, we both burn up until we explode. We totally clash on some days. 3. He's a bit good on the physical side. So, there are always girls who want to get his attention. Sheesh.

you know people are always saying that opposites attract well I think its more that like people attract like people. My husband and I had a lot of things in common and both had a screwy sense of humor andwe often goofed at the same time but we had fun and we argued and it was alovely marriage. Now I am a widow I really appreciate what times we had.

Very patient and caring! I can't imagine my life would be if he is not the one, you know, maybe it will end up to divorce right away since I have this attitude that is very moody especially this time that I al entirely adjusting to almost everything in this place. He remain very loving and understand which I truly appreciate above all!

I love that he puts my son and I above everything else. He often goes without to provide for us. Even if I insist that he gets things that he needs, he will deny himself to make sure we have what we need. He is a caretaker, both personally and professionally and I admire that. He also is a very intelligent person and has alot to share with me and others. The things that irk me is that sometimes he can be a little too opinionated and at times a little insecure. Overall, though he is a generous, loving and caring individual and I'm lucky to have him.

you are so lucky in a lot of ways since I can see he really reallyloves you and your son. I think so many guys can get a little insecure and I think it sort of embarrasses them a bit since they are brought up to think guys should always be really strong when they are just humans like us women.
