About Me

Husband, father, grandfather, animal caregiver . . . slave to all. Love to travel, though I do less at this moment. Favorite places have to be Israel and Spain. Italy, France and the Caribbean are on my list of visits. And should there not be a section in the profiles about which medications we are taking?

Interests:
Writing, traveling, baseball, reading, computers, internet, people, photography*, laughing. **Though I like photography, some of the pictures are not by me (though they are legally obtained).

SEX. That’s right, SEX. Well . . . okay, we may not be talking about sex, but I wanted to make sure you guys would at least glance at this post. Men get this first round (with ladies going next) because they were created before women. Thus, having been around longer, we probably need more help.

 

Let me run a risk by summing up this post: Spoil Her.

 

If you are drawing a blank right now, let me toss out some ideas. Remember when you first started dating? You would have done anything for her (except maybe let her have the remote). What are you doing different now?

 

Open the car door for your lovely lady. If this works without her having a heart attack, you might want to try other doors as well.

 

What do you think might happen if you always filled her car with gas so she never had to?

 

Hold hands with her just because. When she questions you tell her, “Because I love you.”

 

Tell her how beautiful she is to you. Let her know (make her feel) she is the one special person in your life.

 

Offer to wash the after dinner dishes or laundry for her (whites in warm water; colors in cold). Let the love of your life sit back and relax.

 

Turn down the bed covers for her every evening.

 

Draw her bath for her.

 

Read to her.

 

Offer to make her something to drink or snack on while you are watching a movie together.

 

Let her have the remote and watch what she wants. (Uh, do I hear the winds of a mutiny?) Oh yeah, and watch it with her . . . without sarcasm.

 

When she has been busy all day (or just because you love her), make her supper . . . even if it is only macaroni and cheese.

 

Guys, make the love of your life feel loved and pampered. Let her feel spoiled. She deserves it. Granted, this could bring you under heavy scrutiny and suspicion, but she is still worth it. It will pay wonderful dividends in the future.

 

*Addendum: If you do this with the hope of getting a loving prize later, go directly to jail. Do not pass go. Do not collect any hope of developing a greater relationship with your spouse. Just do it because you love her. No strings attached.
