My Husband Rocks Friday

April writing...

There are many ways my Hubby rocks, but today I want to talk about how he loves me for who I am, specifically personality wise. You see...I am a very goofy, silly, glass-half-full and trusting kind of person...my DH is more serious, not so silly, cynical and glass-half-empty kind of person.

There come many times where I try to push him to think my way...it makes life easier to deal with in my thinking. I know I frustrate him at times when I am always so 'look at the bright side' or 'think about what they are going through,' but he loves me anyways. And I think there are many times where my 'bright sided' thinking has opened up new ways of thinking about life for him.

I am glad he isn't the type of husband that silences my personality just because it is different from his. It seems that there are alot of relationships that work like that...and I am awfully glad ours doesn't.

Thanks for letting me be ME baby...I love you for you too!!!

This may seem like a weird MHR post...but it's just been something I have been thinking about lately.

How does your Hubby, Significant Other, what have you ROCK?!?!

My husband and I are much the same. He was VERY pessimistic when we first met, but he's become much more optimistic since then. Just like you, I always appreciated that he didn't try to squelch my personality and just loved me for me. That really does rock!

Great post about your hubby! It's great that he accepts you just as you are and doesn't try to change you. It's nice just to sit back and be the person you're meant to be, right?! :)

That is so wonderful!

My husband and I are both kind of goofy. But we of course have many differences as well.

I love seeing couples who accept the other as they are and doesn't try to change them into some perfect idea that they have. That is truly love!

Thanks for sharing!

This week, he rocks because he has looked out for my well-being by taking care of my car and a few others things. I love it when we think about each other the way we do without words ever being needed to express our needs.

Hi April, this is my first visit to your blog. It sounds like you and Cory are well-balanced personality-wise, and can play off each others' strengths. It's good to have more than one perspective available in a marriage :o)

The Indigo Girls have a song with a couple of great lines for those who lean toward the "glass half empty" philosophy:

"Is the glass half full or empty?"
I ask her as I fill it.
She says "It really doesn't matter,
pretty soon you're bound to spill it."

How's that for an ultra-downer point of view? It makes me laugh every time I hear it.

Hope you'll stop by to find out why MHR ... this week's is a doozy!
