6. He keeps the romance alive.

This can be with date nights, flowers, a special trip, your favorite meal or treat, or even a long back rub or running you a bath when he knows you are tired and sore. He goes out of his way to make you feel special and loved.

7. He is your inspiration, motivation, and support system all in one.

When you have someone who supports you, and who encourages and inspires you to be the best that you can be and to follow your dreams, then you will accomplish so much more. He is always in your corner with words of encouragement, or even a shoulder if you need it, and he will always want what is best for you.

8. He makes each day fun and exciting.

Let's face it, adult life can be boring and mundane. If he is a keeper then he will make an effort to make each day special and fun. Maybe it is singing to you while you both wash dishes, or making you laugh with a funny dance while you are cleaning house together.

9. He is your anchor in the storm of life.

When life gets hectic or you suffer disappointment is he the first one you want to contact? If he calms and soothes you, restoring your inner peace and holding you down then he really is your husband and best friend both.

10. He is quick to praise you.

Everyone needs validation at times, and it is nice when the person whose opinion matters most in the world gives you positive feedback.
