He would do anything for his children, though.</p> <p>My husband is more sensitive but he still would do anything for either me or our son. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18237 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 23:58:03 +0000 Rosie Girl 18237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. My DH and dad are VERY much alike. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18177 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 21:56:56 +0000 eeh 18177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, absolutely. My husband and dad are so alike it's scary. I notice more of the similarities now that we're married more than I did when we were dating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18151 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 20:56:48 +0000 tessabella76 18151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband is more like my brothers than my dad. He has a lot of the same interests and hobbies as my brothers and a lot of the same personality traits. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18117 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 19:54:31 +0000 Mrs. D 18117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes I think so, and that scares me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18073 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 18:13:48 +0000 jrenee 18073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I married my brother. He's 15 years older than me and we are super close. My husband is just like him, loud, funny, and can talk your head off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18070 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 18:08:01 +0000 VanessaC15 18070@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely not! My dad is very quiet, shy and keeps mostly to himself. My husband is the complete opposite - he is so loud and outgoing, I can barely get him to shut up! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18065 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 18:03:37 +0000 musicbox611 18065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HA!! @SorryCharlie- same! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18047 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 17:33:41 +0000 Rescuemom10 18047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In some ways yes. My Dad and DH get along so great I love it, because they are alike in many ways. Ok, ok...I guess... yes I did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18046 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 17:32:29 +0000 LatteLove 18046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>generally, yes. both very strong, but moderately introverted people who are very hard workers.<br /> But they are also different in a lot of ways (interests, hobbies, etc) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18044 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 17:31:13 +0000 FancyGem 18044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! They are very selfless, hardworking, God-fearing, motivated men. They are all about family and very protective of me (in a healthy way). They are the type of men that you can depend on and will do anything to see their family happy. Plus, they both eat a ton. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18043 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 17:30:13 +0000 AmeliaBedelia 18043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not at all! But I am marrying my Papa (grandpa), which is good. :) They have many of the same interests even, so it's not anything my family is unfamiliar with. My Papa was a stand-up guy, one of those very respectable, solid men. I've always been drawn to that in people, and am glad I found it in FI. They aren't carbon copies of eachother (my Papa was MUCH better financially, I think because he grew up in a very frugal time.) We are striving to adopt his philsophies though. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-18039 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 17:25:20 +0000 cyneswith 18039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband is more interested in finances than my dad (which is good, because I share my dad's position of "I don't care, so long as we can still eat when the bills are paid.") Otherwise, they are very similar. My husband has my parents' best traits, and I love it. He's so silly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-17972 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 16:06:13 +0000 mrsjyw 17972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most definitely. While DH is a "newer/modern" version, he is very much similar to my dad. They're both driven and love sports. They are very family-oriented and are both tough guys who wear their heart on their sleeve. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-17966 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 15:54:51 +0000 cyndistar3 17966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really, they are pretty different </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-17946 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 15:21:04 +0000 heffalump 17946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My hubby does some little things that are like my dad. It creeps me out. Like he does this really huge sigh. He's like him in the fact that they're both very nice guys, and very family oriented.</p> <p>But for the most part no, they're not alike. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-17940 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 15:18:00 +0000 sorrycharlie 17940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no - I am my dad, but I married my mom. LOL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-17929 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 15:10:22 +0000 junebugmama 17929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. They are almost exactly the same, except my husband is a little more chatty. They are both metro-sexual, but are men's men. They build things, fix things, and unfortunately like to kill things. They are also both very goofy and super sensitive. They both cry openly and can easily well up over a sentimental birthday card. They're both also amazingly dedicated partners and parents. I couldn't have asked for anything more in either of them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-17926 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 15:07:01 +0000 totheislands 17926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can see definitely see similarities between my dad and my husband but more than anything I love the relationship they have - they are both extremely smart and opinionated, they never have a shortage of conversation, they even exchange books they read that they think the other would like. It makes me really happy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-17924 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 15:05:53 +0000 MH.Abroad 17924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Again, not even remotely. Thank goodness. They do have one thing in common though-they are both very outgoing and make friends easily. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-17919 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 15:02:10 +0000 Adira 17919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! My dad is a very mellow, chill guy. He generally goes with the flow and lets my mom do whatever she wants and be the one in charge. And my husband is the exact same way! I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-did-you-marry-your-dad-metaphorically-speaking#post-17913 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 14:56:48 +0000 chopsuey 17913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad has a very strong personality. He's passionate, driven, opinionated, a man of character, a visionary.. who loves and fears the Lord. Growing up I looked up to him and he was (is) my hero. I wanted to marry someone just like him. </p> <p>And I DID!<br /> Did you marry someone like your dad? </p>
