What have you done romantically for your man lately? Special gifts, dates, etc? Does Valentine's Day, anniversary, sweetest day have to be a day when we shower you with gifts, flowers & praise? If you believe the ads, those, (plus Christmas, Easter, Mother's day), are days when we should be buying you diamonds and other expensive gifts. I'm just wondering, how do you reciprocate for that?

I bought my husband a dozen roses, nice vase and took him out to dinner on Valentine's Day (also our 5th anniversary).
More importantly (probably to him) I let him store car parts in my kitchen and dining room. Turbos are beautiful decorating pieces you know.
Just last night I cleaned our bedroom, went and bought some candles.. and waited for him to come home.
Tonight I bought some new sheets (something he's wanted) and pillows to surprise him. Also some new boxers and t-shirts (something he would NEVER buy himself). Don't know how romantic those things are.. but hell. It's something.
BTW- I don't like expensive gifts and diamonds and all that other crap. I get car parts for Christmas!! (shocks this year!) lol

Now this is definitely above & beyond the call of booty. OOPS! I meant duty.
You get a gold medal girl!

Men don't buy underwear cause as far as we're concerned those holes in the ass and crotch are just better ventilation. I've got boxers from at least 4 years ago if not more.
Well, I've given up really because I've been told the following: "Flowers are a waste of money"
I buy him chocolate and make nice meals from time to time, but in the past when I've done anything romantic there's been no response, no notice.
I still have things I'm doing that are in process, but he won't notice those as romantic either.

This would have been wasted on Dan.
Can you guess what I get as "romantic gifts"? Car parts (Christmas, B-day, Any holiday). Not that I don't appreciate them, but y'know I still am a woman even though I am one of the "guys"

I've gotten him watches, a tattoo that I designed , yup, I'm proud of that one, um, well I just get whatever he asks for, like for one BDay he got a car, the Explorer.Like currently, the poor thing was not able to get his Glock 45(the damn CRX , it needs repairs again!!), so for his BDay , I have been saving up $$ on the side and I'm gonna go buy it for him and surprise him.
I only ask to get car parts as gifts, like he got me the clear turn signal grille , that I wanted soooooo bad for V-Day. So , I'm pretty easy, I hate jewelry, I think you can spend whatever jewelry costs, like what $200 or more?? You can use that to buy something for the car and wrap that up. I don't even wear the jewelry he got me in the past, only my wedding ring. But anywho, and I hate spas, tanning and massages, I always tell him, you buy that crap like the certificates and you go yourself. I don't like that stuff.
I'm weird, I'm almost a man sometimes, LOL
^^^Ooops, that before said I was a man, my bad. Typing error.
Well CKA - I love cars and getting goodies for my car, but I also like jewelry, massages and tanning too.
The only time I've had any of that has been when I've bought it myself...every single time...not once has any of my relationships offered me a piece of jewelry (not counting my joke of a marriage). Each one of my relationships has been for at least 4 years each (Dan so far 2.5) (Marriage 1), but hey...I've not hit that 4 year mark with Dan yet. Who Knows?

I try to be romantic for him, but yeah, we have come to agreement that he is indeed the chick of the relationship and there really isnt much to change it.
I do little things here and there... nothing too much. He always beats me to it. Ill have an idea for something and then before i spring it on him, he does it first. I just cant beat him i guess.
Maybe ill just try harder.
