Im just about to get married and was wondering what others thought the answer to the above question is?

Or indeed what makes the perfect wife?

If you're about to get married it's a bit late to be asking :o

Good point. lol

I have definitely found my "perfect" husband and count my lucky stars daily but I was merely wondering what others viewed as "the perfect husband"

The fact that you know that and don't need to ask the question of them indicates a level of trust and dependence that only a perfect partner could bring.

This is in contrast to the couples that draw up agreements to decide who gets what in the divorce before the wedding even occurs.

(I've been married 5 years and one week. It's marvellous.)

Thank you for that message.


Congratulations on your recent five year anniversary.

We are getting married four weeks on Saturday and I cant wait lol


You are right I cant understand people who have pre-nuptials. I hope with all my heart to be with my partner till the day I die

dont think theres a perfect husband or perfect partner, being gullable or naive is what you make of it. get most males out married or single and they are all the same, sorry its how they word there lies ???. ps ilove my wife to bits but in a real world theres to much crap, dont listen ladies.

Im sorry Brooksy, I didnt really understand your post.

my point was that most blokes are basically the same, if you give them a chance theyl take it. come on , christ sakes if kylie was on all fours would your husband turn it down, i think not. so whats a good husband ?, does it include out of marriage relationships and a nice house or what. does being faithfull realy matter to some women as long as the finance is there.

I am sorry that you have had such obvious bad experiences with love and women. I would give up all I had to spend just a day with my man if I had too, and if we were to live poor for the rest of our days Im sure our love would not diminish


I realise that you may feel this makes me naive, but I too used to be a cynic of love until I met Rich.

If someone meets all your criteria then I guess they are perfect - for you.

There's nothing better than seeing two people who are obviously totally in love.

I've only ever been 'totally in love' once. I met my soulmate but after nearly 2 years we split and I was hearbroken. That was about 12 years ago now, I still think of that person almost everyday and on the rare occasion we have met up since, we still get on like best friends.

I wish I could find that sort of love again. But in the meantime, I've got a 'very nice' partner who ticks some of the boxes but certainly not all of them.

Good luck to you, I really hope with all my heart that you are together for a very long time.

Sometimes we settle for 'good-enough' rather than perfect. Shame really!

Before Rich I settled for four years with a nive guy who ticked some boxes. Its almost safer to do that as as you say when you are so totally in love it can leave you devastated.

Thank you for your good wishes and I wish you every happiness too x x

Love, ah, love - glad you're happy and enjoy your big day! :love:

One who Cooks, Cleans, Irons, Makes lovely food, and doesnt talk back ;)

Nah, Umm.. Someone who respects you as much as them, and who can be your best friend as well as your lover.

Thats what i'd want in a Wifey anyway

And does your current partner know they are only running a close second ? I would hate to think my husband found me"good enough". I'm certainly not perfect but I also know in my husbands eyes I'm the best partner in the world to him.

I was the perfect wife (twice) ;)

Congratulations on your forthcoming wedding.

Thanks for your messages. The big day is now only 3 weeks and 5 days.



eeeek

sorry 3 weeks and six days, i was getting ahead of myself :-)
