Boards are often the place to complain and gripe about men, but sometimes we forget they have good qualities, too. If you currently have a guy in your life, tell us some good things about him. Let's see the positive side of our guys today. :-)

My fiance and I have been together almost 4 years. We've had some really ups and downs but we've climbed, crawled and pushed our way through them. We've learned a lot about each other, but we're a lot happier today and I'm glad I stuck it out. Here's a few of the reasons why:

He'll eat anything I cook and tell me how good it is and thank me for it.

He'll rescue daddy long-leg spiders out of the shower because he knows I don't like to see them washed down the drain. LOL

He'll do laundry and hang the clothes outside on the line because he knows I'm trying to save money on electricity.

He takes time for everyone in his life, sometimes to the point of stressing himself out.

He's good at saying please and thank you.

He enjoys doing simple little things with me. We just enjoy each other's company.

So, now it's your turn. What kinds of things does your guy do that makes him special?

I love that he texts me to say that he is thinking about me while he's at work.
I love that he works so hard for everything that he has and he is always trying harder.
I love that goofy smile that he gets because I can't help but smile when he does.
I love the way he lifts me up off the ground because he hugs me so tight.
I love it when he spends an entire evening just giving me massages because I am stressed.
I love that he tries so hard to keep me happy even though I am ridiculous sometimes.
I love that he always tells me exactly how he feels even if he knows I won't like it.
I love the goofy things he does like popping his collar, messing up his hair, and wearing big sunglasses because he thinks it makes him look like he is "in the mofia".
I love how he with the kids that we know like when he spent $10 just putting coins into a basketball machine at the arcade because he was letting two little boys play until they beat his score. He kept cheering them on and telling them how great they were doing and sneaking baskets in for them.
I love watching him hold the little babies that we know. He is a big guy and he gets so quiet and you can tell he is trying to be really careful. When my nephew smiled at him his face lit up and I almost cried.
I love that he is always optimistic.
I love the list he made of all the reasons that I am beautiful.
I love that he makes sure I know he listens to me.
I love that he takes care of me when I am sick.
I love watching him hug my grandmother and seeing her smile.
I even love how sometimes at night he will kiss my stomach and say "one day my baby will be there. just wait." I tell him that he is crazy but the thought of something that is his inside of me and thinking about watching him with his own little one makes me smile.

Wanted to brag on my guy today! He has been on vacation all week, but I had to work and couldn't be with him. Instead of playing golf all week like he could have he helped my son (from my first marriage) get his car running and get his unemployment check started, and helped him to write an awesome resume. Then, I was having awful headaches and the doctor (I swear it is true) prescribed me nausea medicine for a migraine. He went to her office and raised Cain until she prescribed something that would work. He has had dinner on the table every night this week, done laundry, and cleaned house. He even took my car to have the oil changed and the tires rotated. What a guy! I feel very lucky to have someone so special in my life!
