Comments on: Writer’s Workshop: My Man Is Not Roses http://www.mamakatslosinit.com/2010/02/writers-workshop-my-man-is-not-roses/ This is me exploiting my children for millions of dollars...minus the millions of dollars. What the hell am I doing?

Are usually sickenly sweet,(yuck) so I went in another direction with this prompt.

Please don’t get me wrong.).  Sometimes I think we’re polar opposites; he’s not big on socializing, he’s fiscally conservative and he holds his peace until he really has something to say (most the time I say too much).  He also has a very dry, but wicked sense of humor that I love.  Unlike Archie, he’s a fantastic dad and I feel that overall we share equally in the raising of the kids and housework/management.  He’s hard working, stable, and great athlete and has a sharp mind.  Alas, he’s also a Guy.  One who is not high on the emotional depth perception, feeling contentiousness, or relationship care charts (if ever there is such a thing).  I could relate to Mama Kat’s post, My Man Is Not Roses.

I am your husband, my husband is the romance addict. This year I was thrilled to bits with his gift-- I think I finally have him trained. He got me new number plates for my car :-) Fun post, congrats on your nomination over at Hilary's POTW!

This Valentine's Day is my first one in a relationship, and my guy is trying to figure out what I want. I told him all I want is to spend the weekend with him, but he feels obligated to buy me stuff. Silly commercialism. I really enjoyed this story. This Valentine’s Day is my first one in a relationship, and my guy is trying to figure out what I want.
