    He must have talked to my husband, I get presents like that all the time. Pink flannel pajamas (12th anniversary) clip-on earrings (clip-on? I have pierced ears) red and black striped sleeveless turtleneck (was this just inside the store door?) sponges from Big Lots, etc. Now I give him a picture of what I want. Took me 20 years to do this. (I kept hoping) lol

    Women who expect their men to pay careful attention to everything they say are always disappointed. It seem that they consider this a sign of love, when actually just putting up with them for any number of years is proof of our love…

    A cracker? I thought it looked like the cover to the now defunct since 2007 Cracked Magazine (The longtime famous Mad Magazine rival).

    It took several years but I finally learned a way to solve some of the problem. When shopping with her I watched what she would show strong interest in. When she stepped away I would slip the Visa card to the salesperson saying what I wanted, come back a few minutes later to sign for it. It always worked when I would surprise her with it. Took a long time to catch me at it and then she got more selective with her “I like that’s”.

    My wife is not beyond telling me flat-out what she wants. I’m the one with the problem. I don’t really want anything unless I actually need it. So when she asks me what I want for whatever occasion, my answer is usually something like, “socks.”

    Maybe she should have said, “saltine” instead.
