I Am A Neanderthal
Ladies, yes we love you for your mind, but let’s face it, we’re visual creatures as well. Take care of yourself. Ditch the sweatpants and paint-spattered t-shirt unless you’re actually painting. We think you’re beautiful… remind us why.
You know that first 10 minutes after we get home when you want to share the details of your day? Well we want to hear them, just not immediately. Give us a few minutes. Trust me. It’s worth it.
Remember that really great lingerie you bought and wore for our anniversary? So do we. Every day can be a special occasion.
God made men and women different for a reason. Embrace those differences. Showing your feminine side is not showing weakness. In fact, the smartest women I know understand that it’s quite the opposite.
Men are really simple creatures, so don’t over-complicate it. When you ask “What are you thinking,” we lie. We were really thinking about football, that really cute woman from up the street who wears tennis skirts, or something equally important in Man-World. Sorry, but it’s true.
When we ask where you want to go for dinner, tell us. We hate playing, “I don’t know, where do you want to go?” If you really don’t care, then change the words… “I honestly have no preference tonight, but will go anywhere you want to go.” When we pull into the Hooters parking lot, deal with it. ; )
We know we’re like babies when we’re sick. Sorry. Just can’t help it, as much as we’d like to.
This is probably enough to get me stoned to death in front of the cave, so I’ll stop for a bit. But you know I’ll be back.

Ladies, we are not subtle. We don't understand subtle. We loathe subtle. If there is something you need to tell us... then tell us. Hints, veiled references, and innuendo will fall on deaf ears. We hear, but we are incapable of understanding. I know that in your heart-of-hearts, you want us to want what you what, when you want it. Ain't gonna happen, and if it does, it was blind luck. Tell us... Please. We do want to make you happy, but we often don't have a clue how to.
