What is your other half better at than you?

Directions. Than man cannot get lost. He may get turned around, take a wrong turn etc but he can get us right in a matter of seconds. And he isn't doesn't bother him to stop and ask either.

THIS! I swear DH has a compass built in his head. I, on the other hand, have absolutely no sense of direction. If I tell you to go left, you should probably go right.

Right!! I can almost see the little arm swiveling around to point north :) It's almost freaky!!
 


The technological, the mechanical and anything that requires the ability to spatially conceptualize things.

Happily we are the yin and the yang to balance each other.

I was going to say this too! He can have been somewhere once, 20 years ago and remember perfectly how to get there, it amazes me. I need the GPS for everything! He is also better at time management than I am.
 


I'm the math person in our house, and the cook.

But DH is way better with "tech-y" stuff, and just plain stronger.
 
Math, sports, driving, memory and keeping calm
He is a math genius (an actuary), I am a terrible driver (totaled 2 cars), I freak out easily (he can stay calm and collect), he is a better athlete and he has the memory of an elephant (mine is crap these days- brain fog...peri thread).

<------ Not this DH. My wife will say I can get lost in a phone booth, and she's probably right. :D
 
Mine is better at home repairs and maintenance. He can fix electrical and some plumbing issues. I'm better at cooking and keeping the house in running order
 
Fixing things and putting things together. Give me directions on how to put something together......no just don't.
 
Not drive I can ashore you of that.
My wife just had one of her many fender benders.
I apologize to you all for hijacking this thread but really that helped, and probably helped my marriage so thank you all.

You know what I will go with my wife is better than me at hitting things.
Oh God I feel so much better.
Thanks all
 
Laundry! He's does it all without complaining

Taking care of the dogs, icky stuff, and bugs

Basketball stats
Song lyrics and titles
Grilling
Lawnmowing
Being funny
Blood donations-he's a very regular platelet donor (privately I think he's found the ideal way to volunteer because he can lie down and watch movies and still be a hero lol) I am very proud of him and he's very passionate about it. He's got our kids getting into it too.
 
Nice thread...

DH is better at cleaning and folding laundry. He is more patient about getting our little ones to sleep.
He is a good driver. I dont know how to drive yet.

We are both good at math and science but he generally does the math homework checking because I am too lazy to learn new math - i mean math is math!
