Comments about ‘Guys: Gesture does matter for Valentine's’

But what do you do if your wife wants you to intuit what she wants, but you never were good at reading minds, and the clues she gives are so subtle Sherlock Holmes would deny their existence, and when you ask her what she wants she is upset that you have to be told? Most men are like dogs. They can be trained, but your instructions must be clear, positive, frequent, patient, and followed immediately with reward for good behavior.

My husband and I joke about the movie, "Phenomenon" with John Travolta before the bald head and shoe polish gotee.

Johnny boy tries to win over that lady that I can't remember her name. And what does he do? Buys her chairs. HER CHAIRS! (Warning: This is one of those subtle hints.) The thing that she loves. The thing that she's passionate about.

Does she like books? Buy Ann's for her. J/K, not really. Don't know what book to buy her? Get her a gift card and take her on a date to the bookstore. Devote hours to perusing. Because then, "You get her." and what she really wants, is you. A piece of you.

The end.

Most local barbershop groups send out quartets to sing sweet songs to your someone special for $40.oo and will do it on friday,saturday or sunday. You can send them to an office, a house, church for this special valentine. It's fabulous and unforgetable.
