How has your partner changed you?

My husband hasn't changed me for the better trying hard for me to go to boating whenever I can.

However, its seems he just aggravates me more than ever because he feel his wants and needs come first when I take care of the family and kids (dogs) to see their taken care of and financially stable.

He doesn't take directions or suggestions too great and feels I yell at him for no reason knowing he did go against me.

Got to say though that he's got a potty mouth for sure and will never change. Still, its how we go about things and how we handle situations our best way.

I have definitely made a lot of positive changes, he encouraged me to get more hobby's so I started volunteering as a girl guide leader. I also eat a lot more foods then I used to, when we started dating I didn't eat mushrooms or onions now I regularly cook them even when he isn't home. I moved to another province with him, so we do a lot of exploring together. We have also gotten a second dog.

I'm late more often after moving in with my FH LOL and a bit messier

But other than that it's great, it's like having a sleep over with your best friend every night. I was always scared of "what are we going to talk about every night" because I thought after a while then topics would run out. Boy was I wrong - sometimes all we do is talk and other time we sit in complete silence just being together.

We became pet parents and being in our little family is the best time of my day.

For the better I've become a lot more independent and confident doing everyday things. Do childhood I always had to make sure what I was doing was right and got approval from my father....which at the start of the relationship I was doing that a lot. But my FH very quickly changed that in me, if I did something and he wasn't a fan he would tell me and that was that.

Not gonna I've gotten a little messier haha

View quoted message My fiance has always been that for me since College: a calming influence. even when we cook together during the holidays, i panic many times during the process (taste, timing, etc) and he'll calmly address the situation. he's also helped me trust my vision and to not doubt myself so much.

He's made me more confident in myself. I used to second-guess my ideas a lot, to the point of cancelling major plans at the last minute.

He has just helped me see the calmer side of things, i am emotional so tend to take things to heart especially negative comments so his presence is just soothing.

I feel I am more comfortable with forming and stating my own opinion. My mother is the type of person that if you do not have the same or similar opinion as her it turns into a fight. Being around that environment I learned to nod and agree. My fiancee has helped me find my voice; do not care what others think. He also has helped me feel confident in myself. When I first dated my fiancee my mom did not approve of him she would say " he only wants you because you are virgin "... my birthday gift i got from him she asked "wow what did you do to deserve that, you must be giving him "somethig" ... He helped me to learn to stop thinking of the hurtful words my mom was saying by showing me that he would never judge me on my choices , he is here to give some advice but I need to learn to mke own choices. For a long time i would ask him what i should do and he would say do what feels right. I am way more outgoing and found own hobbies learned that i enjoy and am very good at golf..I am better at golf than him and I have been only been playing it for 2 years

I'm absolutely more adventurous with my eating, especially seasoning and spice wise. I got super lucky having a guy who knows his way around the kitchen. He's helped to calm me and see that some of the things i stress about dont matter and I feel like i enjoy the small things so much more. He is so supportive and no matter how worried or overwhelmed i get with school or my career he reassures me that I'm not alone. I love him for that. He also has helped me identify those who are good in my life and the friend who was no good for me and treated me like garbage. This has helped me grow tremendously.

He has helped me come out of my shell. I'm a pretty quiet, serious person until you get to know me. Some people didn't realize how goofy I can be until they saw me with my fiance. And, I think I've improved on the comebacks! He is sarcastic and always seems to have a zinger ready. It took me awhile, but I've been able to burn him right back! haha

He has mellowed me out quite a bit, softened the sharper edges of my personality, gotten me to be more communicative and expanded my musical interests to name a few things.

I'm definitely more adventurous all around...food, travel, there are countless ways. He's helped me ditch my safety net. I'm also a better cook now since he's been teaching me a few things.
