Whatever You Say, Dear

She probably wishes she had trained me better. I still don't do the laundry or the dishes. But I do cook, and I do take the trash out. Well, the trash mostly. I am not nearly as helpful around the house as she'd prefer, that's for sure.

@porwest Cooking every once in awhile should earn your brownie points, surely?

@ScribbledAdNauseum I am THE cook. If I don't cook she does not eat. But she watches football and I can't stand it. Go figure.

My wife may debate that. But I can go along with that.

@porwest

@porwest At least you are aware of that! You don't like what she buys for you?

I mostly buy them. But she does come home with something for me every once in a while. Some of the things she buys me do tend to collect dust in my closet though. She DEFINITELY cares for me, and I am DEFINITELY a lucky man.

@mysdianait It depends. Our tastes are a little different. I always thank her though. But obviously she knows when I don't like something when it never gets worn.

I TRY my best to be. She has something I want, you know. And she may not give it to me if I don't behave.

Glad you had a little bit of fun with it. The party turned out awesome.

@porwest I don''t know why it just hit me a funny lol

@Courage7 lol. Anything I can do to help provide a little levity.

What are YOU laughing at?

My grandpa sweaters are never stained or holey.

Most men, I think, do the same. "Yes dear." You women have a LOT of power you know. No matter how much a man thinks he is king of the house, the queen has something those kings want very badly, and the women get to decide when we can have it or not.

Just because a man believes it is schnazzy to wear a suit and tie with a ball cap and sneakers does NOT mean we don't have an appropriate attire gene. But I think you are right. My wife does most of the cleaning, the laundry, the dishes...as far as romancing it's true I just want to hop in the bed and get right down to business while she wants a little more than that. I do the cooking though. I at least do that.

@porwest Unfortunately, THAT should never be used as a punishment or reward for good or bad behavior, but sadly that is the reality of the world we live in. And they say men run this planet. I beg to differ.

@moffittjc You KNOW it. They hold that little thing between their legs ransom, let me tell you.

Oh, you are sooo right. AND she has something I want, and I ain't gonna get it if I don't behave.

@porwest I haven't known a man yet who didn't have selective hearing.

@just4him Something in our DNA for sure.

@just4him I will admit my hearing is sometimes a bit selective, though.

And so the story goes.

What???? Are you kidding me???? Do you want me KILLED?????
