My sister's husband was the guy who gassed up the cars and cleaned them every weekend. He checked her gas gauge all the time, as he hated the idea of her having to pump her own gas. I think that is very sweet. It'd be sweeter if they were still together, but the idea of it... I like. Some really do have their ways of letting us know they care...sometimes it's a matter of us just getting out of their way, being a 'bit' dependent on them to appreciate it I would be very bothered by a man I had to pretend to be dependent on. If you have to feign weakness in order for him to feel like a man, what's the point? Not sure if you're missing the point or whether there's some other underlying thing here. It's not that you have to pretend to be dependent or feign weakness. It's simply the message that he wants to do these things for you. Not to control you. Not because you can't do them yourself. But because he wants you to appreciate him and this is one of the ways he does it. A man will move a mountain if he thinks his woman will appreciate it. underlying things. Ok now you guys know I have issues! All this time you thought I was normal.

Hiker, it's not feigning weakness, it's allowing them to do to help. They know you're capable. I'm just not there, yet lilith. Sometimes there are good reasons for being single. I understand. It's not easy for me either. I'm pretty independent. Plus I own a drill, and tools.... Lilith, I have a chain saw..and I can operate a gas-powered log splitter. I would just hate to give all that up to bake cookies.... and if you did...you'd prolly need those tools just to cut the coookies Hey Beach ..screw you! Heya Hiker....you mean you have a strap-on in that arsonal?

Everyone needs to feel needed. I am very independent, spent more of my life single than as a couple, but I still recognize there are things I cannot do that a man can, things I might be able to get accomplished on my own, but I'd rather have man's assistance with. If you do not allow them to show you they care, they love you, allow them to feel needed......then what's the point?

Can I order one of those, who does all that? I did all that and more!! When I was married I did the laundry, took out the garbage, house cleaned, grocery shopped and even ironed my ex's clothes while she was taking a shower! What did it get me? Divorced! But I would do it all again because that is just how I am.
