One evening last week my wife and I were getting into bed. The passion started to heat up and she eventually said, “I don’t feel like it…I just wanted to be held.”
I said “What? What was that?” She said the words that every husband on the planet dreads to hear. She said “you are just not in touch with my emotional needs as a woman enough for me to satisfy your physical needs as a man” She then responded to my puzzled look by saying “can’t you just love me for who I am and not for what I can do in the bedroom?”
Realizing that nothing was going to happen that night, we talked for a few minutes and then I went to sleep.
The very next day I opted to take off from work to spend some time with my wife. We went out for a nice lunch and then went shopping at a big unnamed department store. I walked around with her for a while and she tried on several very expensive outfits. She couldn’t decide on which one to take, so I told her “we’ll just buy all of them.” She wanted new shoes to compliment her new clothes so I said “let’s get a pair for each outfit.”
We went on to the jewelry department where she picked out a pair of diamond earrings. Let me tell you, she was so excited. She must have thought I was one wave short of a shipwreck. I started to think that she was testing me because she asked for a tennis bracelet when she doesn’t even know how to play tennis. I think I threw her for a loop though when I said “that’s fine, honey.” She was almost near sexual satisfaction from all the excitement. Smiling in anticipation, she finally said “I think this is all, dear. Let’s go to the cashier.”
I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out “no honey, I don’t feel like it.” Her face went completely blank as her jaw dropped with a baffled, “what?” I said, “really honey, I just want you to hold this stuff for a while. You’re just not in touch with my financial needs as a man enough for me to satisfy your shopping needs as woman” And just when she looked like she was going to kill me, I added “why can’t you just love me for who I am and not for the things that I buy you?" I guess I’m not having sex tonight either.
