Quick grammar question

[turtledove]

Since my brain doesn't seem to be operating at full capacity...which sentence is the most grammatically correct...

I think it might be a good fit for me and my husband.
I think it might be a good fit for my husband and me.
I think it might be a good fit for my husband and myself.

I used to think that I was pretty good with grammar :(

TIA!

:yeahthat:

ETA: General rule for figuring out noun phrases that have two people/things with a pronoun: to figure out the right pronoun, try the sentence w/out the other noun (so just, "a good fit for me/myself"), then the pronoun always comes second and the full noun/name goes first. So if you went to the store w/John, to be technically correct you'd say "John & I went to the store".

Thanks! I will file the rule away so I don't feel like an idiot asking basic grammar questions, lol!

Cut out "my husband and" and the answer will be clear. ;-)

1 and 2 are both grammatically correct, but it is conventional to put the "self" at the end. So number 2 is the more accepted version of the two "correct" versions.

Number 1 might be used if your situation is the more pertinent and your husband's is ancillary or convenient. In other words, "I think it might be a good fit for me. And (conveniently) it also is a good fit for my husband."

Such nuances are rare, however, so number 2 is the most common form.

You did pretty well when you didn't use "a good fit for my husband and I" like some recent song lyric.

This is not how I learned it, (eta:but admittedly it's been eons since my h.s. English)... You wouldn't say "It would be a good fit for myself." You might say "it would be a good fit for me, myself" for emphasis, but that's different than leaving the me out entirely.see grammar girl...

the misuse of myself is one of my biggest grammar pet peeves.

ETA2: i'm an idiot and clearly did not read Siriana's post clearly, she's right!

I think I made it confusing by using the word self in the quotation marks. I meant something different, but it was unclear. Sorry.

Here's a good cheat sheet on when to use I or me or myself.
