Hi all,in our culture,when we think of a good man/husband,he is always like this :no smoking,no drinking,have a good job,love family ,love his wife and child,willing to help household chores in family,honest,treat people well. I'm just wondering,is this man to you (i mean in different culture)is too traditional and not romantic ? In my own case,yes,my husband just like this.what's yours ?

I think every girl wants to have this kind of man in her life. Some may say that they prefer their man with a bad boy image, but in reality they want a good one. I, myself, set high standards but most often I ended up with the wrong guys. I first thought they were really nice but after months of being together they just change. Are most guys always like this?

that's true. many guys like that but not all. Before got married,I also had relationship with some wrong guys and they totally ruin my life,they pretend they are nice when we first meet,but after we set our relationship,everything is changed.So we better not to fall in relationship with guys quickly,let's slow down ,give him some tests (lol..)know better about his personality ,then we can go further.

well, yes I think for many of us, good husband is something like that... what else...? that is meaning of good human, but my husband is not what I wanted. I mean he was like that showing me that he is good before marriage but after marriage I came to know he is habitual in smoking and drinking and renting.... some girls and have just that kind of family and friends.. I suffer a lot with him and even what is worse is that he is not divorcing me or harresing me to leave my kid for him and to go like this... so I have force of being with him just because of my kid till she grow up and I will be able to go for myself... but what I see is just my all happiness and chances of my life has gone... and I can not forgive him or love him anymore.. he has behaved with me like , that I can not imagine or believe if we have any good man still in this world .. when I read this comments I feel sigh inside that others have ideal and good husband but for me life is like this... why he did like that to me? when even I make question of that he shout at me with bad words and behave so guilty.. for me, my husband is the most wild and cruel one in the world , the one that I think is not perfect for any love, just for hate and feeling disgusting about... sometimes I am so shy while I take my kid to the park and he comes with that behave all ladies look at me when he shout and behave wild in front of all ....

hi,you changed your avatar ,lol,it's beautiful. I feel sad when i read your story,since it's miserable in your marriage,have you ever considered divorce ? leave your husband's home and go back to your country ? you are still young. you still have chance to have a happy life with someone else.

My husband is the ideal man, I think. He handsome, healthy, strong, no smoking, no drinking, have a good job, love family, love me and our child, he also help me to do housekeeping job when I am sick or too tired, he has a good respect to others and family, honest and also treat people well. I am very blessed have him. I love him so much.

For now, my boyfriend and I haven't got married yet but then I am still happy with him. He is not really my dream guy but I love who he really is. And we are planning to get married soon :)

I do have this standard for a man I want to marry. But then I end up OPPOSITE of what my dream guy is. Your Mr. Right would not be always your Dream Guy. And that's what happened to me.

For me,my future husband should be faithful to me,and he can tolerate allt the shortcomings of me.He also shuold have a optimistic attitude as the spirit of AhQ.Last but not least,he can tell many jokes to me.That's all.

My husband does not smoke or drink. He is a freelancer who earns big sometimes, sometimes not. He is very loving and sweet but will not help in doing household chores. He is very good in dealing with people but will not spend money to treat a friend What I like about him is he can do many things. He can do programs. He can be plumber and electrician if needed. He can repair many things. He makes me feel I am the prettiest woman alive haha and would dance with unexpectedly. He makes me laugh. But what I really love about him is that he is very patient, and for that, I am very thankful.

It depends on one's own definition of a good man and as well as the standards. I did not marry a saint for sure. And I love him just the way he is. He is not perfect the same way I am. So we embrace those imperfections together.

I do have lots of standard too. but, as I grown up I learn that standard is just standard cause when you love someone you also love everything about him even his negative side.
