Love, bobbles, and stuff
       I am writing this blog because of my reaction to someone else's blog. Ok Love, Valentines Day, gifts, all that. Fresh cut flowers and diamonds what every girl wants? Or thinks she wants? Cause that is what he momma wanted, and what her grandma wanted, and that is what the TV add says means love. Now before I go on I am not writing this because I am cheep, money has little to do with love and little more to do with why I am writing this.
     
       Love… you want it to grow and flourish… why buy something that will die in 3 days? Why buy a diamond that will never change? Do you want your love to never change and grow? Flowers and jewelry are no brainers to me, ok hunny I got you this cause the store said you would like it and cause I am suppose to buy you this Kinda stuff **insert big cheesy grin** and the girl takes it and is happy she got something and she shows a few friends and after some time it dies and or sit in the bottom of a box waiting to be replaced by the next pretty bobble.
So physically do something for the one you love, Make her a dinner, her favorite food, if you have to and you cant cook so much the better. Get a friend to help you and teach you a few weeks ahead of time, at dinner let her know that you wanted to make her happy and feed her the first few bites. Do you know how much every man in her office will hate you? You wont get that response from a necklace. Plan a whole day together, a walk in the park with a pick nick lunch followed up by a evening of dinner and walks along the water… but before you go out for dinner hand her a simple bag with a perfume you go out and pick out your self, something you like. When she opens it tell her that you happened across it and when you smelled it you thought of her, and how sexy she is, and you know you had to get it for her. Tell her you had two things go through your mind, tell her you pictured her in a elegant evening gown, then oddly her in just one of your old T-shirts… chuckle to your self and just tell her it made you think of her. She will go in the other room and put It on, and every time after that she sees that bottle and smells what you picked out she will have that warm memory. That is love, warm feelings, emotions, not sparkly things and expensive flowers that will die.

       Ok I guess I am done, I will get a lot of crap over this I am sure… a lot of girls will say forget the touchy feely stuff I want the diamond, and to you well I will say good luck to you…

yes you can... going out to a local field and picking wild flowers is nice. I just think men and women both have stopped doing things for people and are now buying stuff!! and that is said... instead of going over to see if your friend is ok we text them... instead of writing you loved one a heart felt letter, we send an e card or buy some flowers. I got a guy at work who sends his wife flowers every b-day, and never even see them, he calls the florist tells her his limit and just tells her to pick it out. Now granted it is nice he is doing something, but I would love to see people put the Personal back into personal relation ships. I mean think about, would you rather have a relationship with your loved one, or a personal relationship? there is a slight difference but it is the small things that move mountians. Like do you love him or are you in love lol its a fine line, but man o man does it make a difference.

I don't even know where all this is comming from, I go from no blog in months to not shutting up lol.

I really can't believe a guy would write/ know all tihs. Although i have to say women still like pretty things like flowers and diamonds, they would in fact choose what you describe x100!

It's true....I wouldn't mind getting pretty things, but i never ask for them. I wouldn't know what to do if I came home and dinner was actually cooked and waiting on me. You know the clothes had been washed, house cleaned, and all I had to do was sit around and eat...that would be nice...

See to many times people think its how much you spend that proves your love... or how rare an item is.... at the end of the day it is still just a thing you can hold in your hand. You cant hold love in your hand, it's a feeling that over takes your mind, body, and soul completely, even when you don't want it to at times.... so the simple things like cleaning the house for your wife having her put her feet and giving her a foot massage would go so much farther that flowers, or a 60.00 bracelet. In my opinion... granted I am a guy lol so most of this is guess work for me... but this is how I roll lol j/k I had to throw a little something stupid in there.

I would love nothing more than to come home and eat then get to put my feet up and get a massage...that IS alot nicer than material things...but like I said I won't lie...I like getting things as much as the next person..but I DO agree with you.

wow doug, you got a pretty nice responce out of this. well...it's not EXACTLY what i had in mind. i guess i was expecting something a LITTLE more creative. i know you have it in you. i mean, i can go to plenty of guys' sites and read this. show emotion, show you mean it, give examples by what you're actually doing in real life. THAT will definately impress me.
