There was a book out about 25 years ago (I'm aging myself) that told you how to get your husband to do everything for you. The person who gave me the book got divorced after being married for a year. I guess that book didn't work. I thought the book was silly.
Do you remember the old Sandra Dee/Bobby Darrin movie? This was before my time. She wanted money for her winter coat. Bobby wouldn't give it to her. So Sandra used some of the winter coat money to buy herself flowers from an anonymous person. She got the coat. But then a friend of hers asked her how she had trained her husband. Sandra brought out a dog training book. Of course, the plot thickened when the "friend" told Bobby.
Me, if I want something, I just come out and say it.
Me too!!!!!!!!
And because I do it so rarely - I usually get what I want.
Last week we were talking yet again about getting a new digital camera. I reminded him that my birthday is next month. last night he brought me his latest computer catalog and showed me the one he had picked out. I told him it wasn't what I wanted and proceeded to find the one I wanted - and it was $10 cheaper than the one he picked!!!!
