Mz Honey agony auntHey Guy's

Thanks for your responds to my question. But I do buy him gifts all the time.And yes he do love me more then words can say.But he just don't think buying me a gift or two

should show me he loves me or thinking about me.I should know that he loves me because he comes home to me and the

kids every nite and he take care of us and pay all the bills

every month.You I can't work because of my injuries a few

years ago I fell at work and right after that I got hit by

a drunk driver and that left me disable for the rest of my life.So I'm home all day everyday doing nothing but cooking

cleaning and washing clothes while still taking care of our

kids.So when I bring of the fact that he don't buy me roses

or a card to show me he loves me !He think I'm just picking

at him because I'm bored or in pain.And that's what is driving me crazy am I just blind????

Should I be happy with the fact that he is taking care of

all the bills and doing all the major things around the

house but not the little things like also making sure that

I'm happy and I feel loved all the time like I do for him

and my kids everyday.He said he donot know what romance

means anymore since we are older and have kids.He feel like we have been together long enough and we love each other

enough that we don't need all that stuff in his words.

And I think every women want's to be suprise with a dozen

of long stem rose and a box of chocolates every once in a

while and not just on her b-day mothers day or a holiday.

I want it just because you love me and I had a hard day

at home.

Please help me am I wrong for wanting a gift every now and then????

sunrise agony auntHi, why dont you buy him a gift, something small and inexpensive as a kind of hint. He may not be that sentimental or sensitive, some men aren't.

Do you feel he loves you? does he show it in other ways? if not sit down and tel him how hurt you feel and take it from there. Good luck x

A male reader, anonymous, writes (8 July 2007):

Probably, he is a kind of guy who doesn't have experience or knowledge that giving a gift is one of many ways for expressing love or attention to others,'cause of his family background or other circumstances.So, it's ok though, as long as he love you that you can feel. You can buy things he like on certain occasions, eventually, he'll learn from you something new and wonderful to do.
