Well, most women like jewelry, fwiw. That's never been a big factor for me. And most women I know wouldn't be so thrilled either - of course, my friends are very practical. But anyway, it's just a commercial that bears as little resemblance to real life as all of the other things you see.

Yeah. Call me old fashioned, but I want to know someone's mind, heart and soul (and for them to know me the same) before we share our bodies. Unfortunately, not very many men respect that anymore. Well, the ones that do are already taken. :) You seem to have all the loose ends tied up rather nicely. How's that workin' for you?

Your post is dead on. I started a calender this year to document how many times my wife will initiate sex. She initiaited only one time last year. BTW, no amount of catering will increase my odds. I help with the kids homework, bath them, clean up the house, and put the kids to bed. She is still "tired." After 10 years of marriage, I have learned not to humiliate myself and beg.

"Interesting reading" ping...
To: Tall_Texan
As a cinima example with a bit of humor, look at the Mother and Father of the Bride in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding". Nothing works without respect for your role in amarriage and respect for the other person's role in the marrage.
I think the word manipulation is too strong. By that logic, giving a woman gold jewelry is manipulation.
To: JohnHuang2; All
Back to the original title...ahem.
From the day we were married, up and until now, there hasn't ever been one time, or one meal that I have served my husband that he hasn't said "Thank you, honey"..
It's the little things that count.

Amen. It is very tough.

It's not a perfect analogy, but I've always said a woman discussing with a man is like a man arm-wrestling with a woman. A "win" in either case is of questionable value.

FOLLOWING ae some books I'd recommend in the middles of these issues or at least related significantly to these issues.
I like James Dobson because I've met him and find him to be authentic if a bit . . . perfectionistic in some contexts. I think he's mellowed over time and I believe his writings are among the best on the subjects of family and marriage as well as male/female relationships.
He's at least real and candid. But, he speaks from a lot of personal experience and tons of counseling experience.
Blessings,

To: JohnHuang2
Loved the post. I printed it off and then tried to read it to the wife. She heard about the book and took off with her fingers in her ears saying "NAAAANAAAANAAA I can't hear you. NAAANAAAANAAA" With me chasing behind reading the excerpts. The kids just looked us like we were nuts.
I am so lucky I married my best friend.

It isn't about winning, really. It's about finding someone who shares the same values, morals and ideals.

Haven't read them but know many people have been helped by them.
Thanks.
