Ladies, an FYI

And this goes for guys, too, altho they typically don't have this problem.


Ladies, if you want something, ASK FOR IT.

Despite all the romantic stories we've been fed, men are not mind readers, and will not know exactly how to touch you or that you are grumpy because he left his hair shavings in the sink again or whatever. If you want more romance in your life, tell him!

And the next thing we should be working on - I know we all like to be surprised. I know that a lot of you feel like your significant other should know what you like enough to surprise you with something sweet and sappy. I know that we're programmed to think that the romance comes from your significant other doing something unexpected that he/she knows you'll like. But you know, everybody's life would be much happier if we adjusted our brains to think of it this way: it's romantic that your signifcant other is willing to do it for you. Let's not give them too hard a hard time about not coming up with it themselves, and appreciate the fact that your significant other loves you enough to take the time to do something that will make you happy.
