-hope this isn’t a repost…
One evening last week, my girlfriend and I were getting into bed. Well,
the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says, ‘I don’t feel
like it, I just want you to hold me.’
I said, ‘WHAT??!! What was that?!’
So she says the words that every boyfriend on the planet dreads to
hear…
‘You’re just not in touch with my emotional needs as a woman enough for
me to satisfy your physical needs as a man.’
She responded to my puzzled look by saying, ‘Can’t you just love me for
who I am and not what I do for you in the bedroom?’
Realizing that nothing was going to happen that night, I went to sleep.
The very next day I opted to take t he day off of work to spend time
with her. We went out to a nice lunch and then went shopping at a big,
big unnamed department store. I walked around with her while she tried
on several different very expensive outfits. She couldn’t decide which
one to take, so I told her we’d just buy them all. She wanted new shoes
to compliment her new clothes, so I said, ‘Lets get a pair for each
outfit.’
We went on to the jewelry department where she picked out a pair of
diamond earrings. Let me tell you… She was so excited. She must have
thought I was one wave short of a shipwreck. I started to think she was
testing me because she asked for a tennis bracelet when she doesn’t even
know how to play tennis.
I think I threw her for a loop when I said, ‘That’s fine, honey.’ She
was almost nearing sexual satisfaction from all of the excitement.
Smiling with excited anticipation, she finally said, ‘I think this is
all Dear, let’s go to the cashier.’
I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, ‘No honey, I don’t
feel like it.’
Her face just went completely blank as her jaw dropped with a baffled,
‘WHAT?’
I then said, ‘Honey! I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while.
You’re just not in touch with my financial needs as a man enough for me
to satisfy your shopping needs as a woman.’
And just when she had this look like she was going to kill me, I added,
‘Why can’t you just love me for who I am and not for the things I buy
you?’
Apparently I’m not having sex tonight either…but at least that bitch
knows I’m smarter than her.
