What would you change about hubby??
This thread isn't to beat our hubby's down, it's just if you could change a few things about him, what would it be??
1. Make him think some appearance are important. Such as...mowing the lawn when it needs it so you don't have to rake or sweep. Help plant flowers, shrubs so it looks nice. 2. Don't leave things in the back room. He just drops anything back there. When people come to the back door it sometimes looks horrible. Bad first impression of our home. 3. Dress better 4. Have cleaner hands. (Works on cars and his nails/hands always looks dirty. 5. He is very selfish with money. When we go out as a family, we split it most of the time. 6. Do things because they need done, not because I tell him... I guess that's enough for awhile....I could probably think of a lot if I took more time!! LOL

Hmmm, this might be easier to ask when I am mad at him. LMAO! But, Id have to say I wish he'd listen better.
(as i was typing this he walked up behind me and gave me a kiss on the neck. Geez, now I feel guilty. LOL)

See that's exactly what I mean....stuff like that never happens here. Maybe if it did, my feelings toward him would change..I doubt it, but anything's possible.

i wish my hubby would clean up after himself, wash his own clothes, put the lid down, mow the yard, cut the firewood and kindling, etc. etc. but mostly pick up after himself.....sometimes i think if i would have known that being married to him meant that i would have to be his maid 24/7 i would have bolted!!! i don't mind picking up after myself and the children because that is what mothers do but i HATE having to pick up after him. i have been trying not to let it get to me but uuuggghhhhh!!! do you know it is 3:15 in the afternoon and his ass is still in bed snoring!!! after paying some bills today i don't know how i'm going to get thru the next two weeks while he is offshore. plus i bitch about him being so lazy when he is home when i know how hard he works offshore. his daddy is 64 years old-semi-retired from Schlumberger(oil company) and he does more in one dang day than my hubby does in a year!!! he doesn't take after his mom(she's a clean freak) or his daddy (workaholic to the bone) i am starting to wonder if he was switched at birth!!!

ice queen: I know how you feel...mine will do stuff if I tell or ask him too, but for crying out loud, why should I have to. If he sees something that's not where it belongs (like on the floor) why can't he just pick it up. Drives me nuts. He's the type also that if he did pick it up he would just throw it in his closet. It's not really fixing the problem, just moving it.
I've always heard that people who are not alike have good marriages, but that is definitely not what is happening here.

As I've said before, I'm a germaphobe. So, the only thing I'd change about my hubby is that I would want him to be more sanitary...i.e. wash his hands more, brush his teeth twice a day instead of one, ect. I would also want him to be more romantic. He is very thoughtful, but not really too "romantic." He would never think to surprise me with things or anything like that. It's not because he doesn't care, he just shows his love in a different way, which is fine too.

I like Rebecca wish my husband was more romantic, but after 24 yrs . it ain't happening lol, he is thoughtful in his own way, cooks for me or takes me out to dinner on weekends when I am working, does make me breakfasts on weekends. He is a big worrier always worrying about money.. why I don't know I am not rich but we do ok. He needs to relax and enjoy life. He doesn't know how to have fun. |

1) That he would help out more around the house. It's not like I'm a stay at home mom.
2) That he was more romantic.

The only thing I can't stand about my hubby is the fact that he has this bad haabit of cutting me off while I am speaking! GRRRRRR. I have gotten to the point that if he does it and we are at home, I just walk away from him and go into the bedroom and shut the door! LOL!!!! If it happens when we are public in front of people, I shoot him the LOOK, and he gets it......
He is getting better at not cutting me off, and he knows it pisses me off, but he has been better, but every so often he relapses and has a few bad days! But I tell him all the time, he gets that from his mother, she does it all the time. GRRRR. I hate that! So now I just walk away from her too when she does that!
