Everything. He says he loves me at least 3 times a day.

We shoot together, play fish together, woodworking (I love power tools)

Yep. He wants them, I buy and take care of them. He feeds them.

7. how do you make tough descicions together
I tell him how it's gonna be.

8. who spends more money, why?
Well I spend more, cause I pay the bills. Do you mean for fun? That would be the hubby. He likes pricey guns.

9. who pays the bills, and why(math part)
I pay the bills. He would let the phone and power get shut off if it meant he could by another big gun.

10. if your spouse decided to make a large change to your family would you support him or her? why?
Absolutely. Like the puppy that turned into 5 puppies? The motorhome that magically appeared? The 2 cute birds at the flea market that turned into 50? Or do you mean when I said I bought a new house, better pack?
 
I amin the 3-5 year range

1. how did you and your spouse meet, what was going through your head.
Were at the same night club..(she dances i drink) I was a nervous wreck becuase a friend of hers asked me to go dance with her (she dances i drink) haha but i did and it sparked a great relationship.

Many things...but most favorite thing is the great mother she is to our 2 kids!

Likes to re-arrange the house on a monthly basis, i can never find stuff.

the money got tight at first but over the years we have gotten used to it. and there is a certain ammount of stress that comes with kids but it is worth it.

camp/concerts/busch gardens/out of town trips on the weekend/we live about 15 mins from the beach too

she is close...i like to go bigger all the time and she likes to keep it simple but 3 of the fish in our tank now are hers

sit down and go over all possibilites long and short term. we learned from out mistakes

8. who spends more money, why?
that is a close call. i would say that i do a bit more cause i do the grocery shopping and get carried away

all bills come from my check and her check is for spending/saving/fun

some of these answers made me LMAO!!

I'm guessing, you are not married?
 
We've been married just over 11 years.

1. how did you and your spouse meet, what was going through your head

Met on a blind date, through my married neighbors in the apartment building where I lived. The wife of my neighbor worked for my future wife at the time. When we first met, she was thinking "I'm glad he isn't like the neighbors". I was thinking "I'm glad she isn't like the neighbors".

2. what is your favirote thing about this person

She takes good care of me, is caring, and has lots of love.

3. least favirote thing?

She is a bit hard-headed and has a short fuse at times. We are opposites.

4.if you have kids have they made things harder?

No kids yet.

5. what do you guys do for fun just you two(school safe answer)

Play with the dogs, go to the movies, bike ride, snowshoe.

6. does you spouse feel the same way about fish as you do?

Ah, no.

7. how do you make tough descicions together

Sit down and talk through it. List the good things and bad things. Make a rational decision before jumping in.

8. who spends more money, why?

Neither of us really spends much. Sometimes my aquarium or fishing expenses out weigh the things she buys.


9. who pays the bills, and why(math part)

I pay the mortgage, heating oil, vehicle repairs, and usually groceries. She pays utilities, her car payment, cable, and cell phone. In the end, it works out to be about 50/50.

10. if your spouse decided to make a large change to your family would you support him or her? why?

Most likely it would be a joint decision. We know each other well enough.


any help at all would be really appreciated thanks alot guys...if its too private you can just pm me
