How this was posted and didn't get a single response is rather, um, curious? Of course, this may already have become a separate thread because it, too, begs the question. Isn't someone going to ask?

I find it interesting that in all of the posts, not one mentioned love. So, how 'bout this for an answer to the question of what makes a good husband/wife: Someone who loves you, regardless of your faults.

What about a horrible illness that would keep that husband/wife from "great sex" would they stop being a great husband/wife?

I think great sex makes a great relationship but it doesn't necessarily make a great spouse.

And love is the obvious. I also would add that they genuinely like you.

Well, that wasn't exactly the question I had in mind. The question was: What is great sex? Just because one of the spouses is ill doesn't mean that - at least, to them - their sex can't be great. But great sex does not a good husband/wife make.
Great sex makes a great sexual relationship...not necessarily a great relationship.
And why, if love is so obvious, was it not mentioned...not even once?

ya know what? put your stupid ego aside, permanently, and you'll make a great husband.

and that great sex thing, how over-rated is that? i mean, great sex is what it is....great sex. kinda like a great creme brule, it's fine while it's going down but wth do you have to show for it afterwards? how's the creme brule helping me out in the day to day scheme of things? i mean, when the chips are down, when the going gets rough, when i've had quite enough of life in general, i don't want no effing creme brule.....

and you both better damn well have the same idea of what "GREAT SEX" is or you're a trainwreck waiting to happen...so that requires a little communication. so get communicating, put your ego aside, and there ya have it, you're the man of my dreams.

Oh, I wouldn't accuse anyone here of being jaded, let alone callous!

Mr. Green

I had to mention it. It's the law. (Isn't it?) But I was the only one to mention it...until you mentioned it. And none since.

Okay, I'll try again.

What makes a great husband/wife? Immense wealth.

Once again, sex rears its ugly head.
It's interesting that the two responses which named sex as a factor, were both made by women. Cool

Of course, no man mentioned it because, well, because it's so obvious...for men, right?

Hey! (yellow flag) Personal foul...15 yards...unsportsmanlike behavior. Smile
I'm not making an accusation but...can't women have stupid egos, too?

I'm so there. I have no ego. I can communicate. Quite simply, I am that man! I hope you can whip up a mean creme brule.

Here's the thing about sex.

My pastor once told me that whomever I marry should damn well be my best friend. Because when the baby's sick, the dryer's broken, and one of you just got laid off, you're going to need your best friend more than anything else in the world.

I agree with the best friend part 100%. I still believe that there has to be a strong spiritual/physical connection as well.

It appears that we're getting there but....

...then the "spiritual/physical connection" thing came up and all I could think of was, "Oh, god! Oh, god! Yes! Oh, god!"
