Are you proud of your OH?

Pittabre, 25 August, 2010 at 21:08 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 12

Mine can be a prize dick at times and insensitive and unable to communicate with me but I am really proud of his achievements. Everything he has got he has got through his own hard work (and supportive wife?) It is the best thing when he says he is proud of things I haev achieved.

TBH it is the fact that we are proud of each other that probably keeps us together?

    I'm always proud of him, I think it's important to be proud of each other even if it's only a small achievement (even if it's something other people wouldn't even see as an achievement.) I think the most proud moment was when he started standing up to his father. When I first met OH he was extremely dominated by his father and would crumble at his feet but I taught him how to stand up for himself and nowadays he's stubborn as a mule.

    I'm very proud of my H, he too can be a prize dick but he has achieved so much.

    And now he gives so much of his time to others.He;s also a fantastic father and a wonderful stepdad to my boys.

    I am so proud of my OH. He is an electrician and the company he was working for went bust and he built up his own business from there. It took him a long time and loads of money but 3years later he has loads of contacts and is really busy.

    But on a day to day basis I am so proud of him. He just takes everything in his stride which he needs to do living with me as I can be unpredictable and moody ?. And putting up with my family. They just steam roll people sometimes and he takes none of it x

    We balance each other out!

    Most definitely. Don't tell him I said this but the man is amazing. (OK, can you tell I've been on the vino tonight??)

    Anyway it is true. He has single handedly pulled his recruitment business through the recession of the last 18 months. We went 5-6 months without any money being made but still he soldiered on despite everything being against him and last week we finally were out of our business overdraft ? We have made some HUGE sacrifices but it has been worth it. I would do anything for him (well apart from bleach my anus ?)

    Considering he grew up in a house without carpets and bailiffs knocking at his door for rent payments (he used to be told to hide behind the sofa by his mum) and left school with no qualifications he is a prime example of success imo. I love the man!

    I am incredibly proud of my H, he is only 34, but since the age of 18 he has been made redundant 4 times, the last twice since he got with me, it didn't phase him that he had been made redundant, he just started looking for a job straight away and luckily landed a job with the local Council as a joiner, and he loves it. I am also proud of my H because he is finally beginning to stand up to his Dad, this is something that has taken him a while to do, but he is getting there and he isn't frightened to say anything to him now.

    I am also proud of my H because he has been an absolute rock to me since we met, but more so in the last 3 years as we have been trying for a family for the past 6 years and since February 2007, we have suffered the trauma of 3 miscarriages, one early miscarriage at 5 weeks, the other two at 11 weeks - the third miscarriage took place on Christmas Eve 2008 only for us to go on and suffer an ectopic pregnancy in June 2009. Throughout all this, he has been there for me and senses when I am having a down day, which there are still plenty of, and when I am having a good day.

    I am proud to call H my husband, he works hard and takes good care of me and I class myself lucky to have married someone like him.

    I'm very proud of my H, we have been through a lot and he has been an absolute support for me and he had to just 'get on with things' a lot of the time such as going back to work. I know that was really tough on him when we lost our son, he only had 2 weeks off with me and then had to go back. He works hard to give me and our daughter things and provide a home. He's a lovely person too and I'm proud to be his wife.

    All these have made me blub!

    I am very proud of my H, he is such a mans man and always wants to look after me even though I am perfectly ok to look after myself!

    He has made our house a home and continues to work hard on it, he also works and is studying. I want him to be the role model to any future children we may have.

    I am so pround of my OH, he has worked so hard to get to where he is and this has allowed us to step on the property ladder and have our ouw house. He would do anything for me, and is very understanding (especially just now when I have decided that I want to move jobs and it will mean that I take a big drop in wages) he just wants me to be happy.

    i cannot wait unit I can call him my husband and I can honestly say I have never been happier!!

    Now, if only I could get him to do more house work Smiley smile
