I don't think I say that much about him - other than his inability to re-direct a toddler and the fact that he probably (aka: definitely) doesn't get as much sexy time as he'd like...
Fairly equal parent (with zero interest in researching parenting strategy/theory), provider of genderless single-stall bathrooms, generally a good guy who occasionally drives me insane.
I suppose I also let out of the bag that he would have sex EVERY SINGLE DAY, while I could probably give it up for months.
From recent memory, I think I portray him as a paper-hoarding engineer with very little concept of all that it takes to make our life run smoothly (ie, I bitch about making ALL of the dr's appointments, etc.). He's also strongly change-resistant. But he does make wonderful dinners!
So.. Probably unfairly. There have been things that I haven't posted because the Internet never forgets.
If anyone has any opinions about my H from FB or what I post here, I'm absolutely dying inside to know what they are.
Just so you know. lol
My idea of your husband is that he generally goes along with your whims & schemes. I think you are the boss. He also seems very scheduled & open to routines as it seems like you guys have lots of "systems" for things (like trading off nights or wake ups or whatever).
I don't think I say much about him. I do mention that I solo parent a lot in the evenings since he's working FT and going to school PT. So he's busy and I do a lot of the "heavy lifting" when it comes to parenting. But he makes 75% of our income, so I'm totally okay with it for now.
SuperGreening, adjective: disbelief that someone's DH can be so deliberately obtuse. (Obtuse, adjective: stupid or unintelligent : not able to think clearly or to understand what is obvious or simple).
I think @this came up with it? It's like catfishing, but for my DH. So I obviously don't paint him in a flattering light.
Honestly, this is my outlet for a lot of complaints about my husband, so probably not the greatest. He has done some terrible stuff during my tenure here that I haven't told anyone in my "real" life about. I needed support and to get some feelings out. I appreciate the support I've gotten here and would rather you guys think poorly of my husband than people who interact with him on a regular basis.
Exactly. I don't tell anyone IRL about my DH frustrations for the same reasons. I appreciate that y'all listen to me.

Hmm, I don't bring him up at much. I would guess he is portrayed as a works too much, gives poor gifts husband, but in reality he is awesome. He is a loving husband and father who is funny, generous, loyal and kind. He comes right right home after a long day and immediately becomes an equal parent.
I almost posted last night how he was snoring so loudly, I thought Mr. @supergreen snuck into my bed.
I am afraid of people thinking he is like mr.@supergreen, so I have been holding in my snoring complaints. Although Mr.SJH is calling his doctor to set up a sleep study (whoo-hoo! he is very MM, and realizing that we'd hit our OOP having a baby in 2015 spurred him to get it taken care of) and very willingly moves to the couch if I ask him to.
I feel like when I mention DH, it's not necessarily about him but about his work schedule (leaving me solo parenting for randomly) or his overbearing family (who can be caring but WAY over involved for my taste).

I don't think I talked about him much when he was still my h ... as an xh .. well, i'll stop right there.
he wasn't helpful when we were married or once dd came along. he was very my way or the highway and never a true partner. he worked long hrs (12-14 hr days 5 days a week were the norm) and didn't make good money (and least that he didn't share w/ me). y'all would have told me to kick him to the curb lol

You have a husband? I kid. Actually I think he probably grew up with annoying parents and is overjoyed with you and your family. And you wear the pants, lol.
