[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are your friends husbands, sweet, kind, generous and great lovers? Do their husbands adore them? You may be well ahead of the game in terms of being happy.[/quote]

You never truly know someone unless you actually live with them.  I know many people on their second marriages, who are having enormous regrets about leaving their first spouse, because (they had it in their head) that they wanted someone "smart".  Traded one set of problems for another, and would take their old life back in a minute, if only they could.  PP here.  I think other PP makes a great point by saying that OP's husband is not really a "doofus", but instead, lacks certain skills, which can be taught.  Common sense (for example) can *not* be taught.

PP again.  Meant to add, some of the smart men I mentioned are touch averse, meaning they don't like to be touched, behind closed doors (and before you make insinuations, they were like that long before they met their wives).  Of course, the husbands are kind and buggy in person (they re not stupid, they are well aware of having a certain image/front). And no, since you asked, they are none of those things ^^^.  Not saying it is true of all smart men, but some have no emotions, or are emotionally stunted (temper tantrums for something very small and trivial, and the wives and children get household items thrown at them, routinely, because their spouse is smart, but stunted).  If a smart man is depressed or has family of origin issues (abuses during his upbringing, for example), good luck getting him professional help, because he "knows everything."[/quote]
