What would you change about your husband or partner if you could "turn back time"?

I should never have married my husband, so I would change everything about him.
I should have left him , but didn't., and vice versa. Neither of us has been happy.

Into a Chimera !

He's a good kind man, but he is too modest and puts himself down in front of other people. He has been seriously ill but when asked about it he will say 'oh it's fine, it's not as bad as what you've been through' or some other such stuff. He once donated his bone marrow to try to save the life of a complete stranger. He has never told a soul and if I try to 'big him up' he says 'stop showing off' Bless him.

the need to be right all the time, which includes snatching a knife out of my hand if I'm not chopping veg right.

durhamjen, same here!

Not a sausage.

He's not perfect but that's good because neither am I.

He's even a twit sometimes...but he's MY twit !

That he wasn't so slap happy,

With you there Teetime. I look on it as a lifelong project . I'm trying very hard to get him to do life management in case something happens to me. Life runs smoothly because I know where everything is and what happens when. I did everything because his work was all consuming. Sorry to be serious.

Same wish here, morethan2. Mine once carried on looking for the brown sauce for his bacon sandwich at the airport even though they'd given out the last call for our flight. Mind you, he'd complain that he was faint from hunger because I insist we get there 2 hours earlier than we need to

He's Ok now because I have been training him for the last 38 years!

I wish he had a bit more of a 'hurry' gene I said to him recently "as far back as you can remember have people been saying hurry up, HURRY UP" it does drive me crazy even after 41 years. I'm sure he'd change a damm sight more of me. I'm not asking him though!

Wish he didn't have to get to every appointment about an hour too soon!

Giving his point of view before I have finished giving mine has always been a problem,I now stop talking as soon as he opens his mouth and end the conversation,apart from that all good after 40+ yrs.

There have been lots of small things over the past 46 years but I've coped! I'm sure there will be lots more in the years to come (I hope many years) but basically he's fine as he is.

That he hadn't been abusive and then perhaps we could have stayed married! I envy those of you who have lovely partners

That he was alive.
Sorry if I've spoilt it for you.

Mine doesn't appear to have a tidy gene, but apart from that I wouldn't swap him

Nothing comes to mind.

I wish he'd stop telling me I mumble and do something about his hearing; I wish he had a few hobbies - he seems to have lost interest in all the ones he had. He doesn't have a lot of imagination, but he's cheerful, supportive and affectionate, so there's not a lot I would change about him.

I wish he'd learnt to drive and he does have a couple of annoying little habits

Otherwise he's pretty darn perfect

I would change his flying phobia so we could explore the World together.
