Do men feel the same about women? Just want to be alone?

i am a domestic disaster ha ha ha .....

our first date i decided to make a picnic lunch for us .

but being a guy i never individually wrap stuff , i take a plastic shopping bag and toss everything in .

well my wife goes to eat her sandwich and something is hanging out the back . she takes a look and it is a piece of a she lace ....omg , i must have used that bag to transport my running shoes to the gym and a piece of the lace broke in the bag ...

i was never allowed to make another meal ha ha ha ....

Not to generalizing abou men. But my husband’s always a better wrapper of gifts then I do. I’m always needy in that department. But he is not a cook, he just makes food edible.

i grew up on chef boyardi beefaroni and pasta and meatballs . so that says it all . 95% of what i used to eat came through my drivers side window

the funniest scene was the waiter in a restaurant asked if i wanted bread . i said to my wife " do i want bread ? " . she said no , you don't eat bread .

i said did i ever have bread ? she said no , you never ate bread . i looked at the waiter and said , NO BREAD .

he could not believe what he just saw ha ha ha

I think that's pretty cute if you and your wife are happy with this arrangement. I hope to get married again some day but I'd like a man who I feel takes care of me and has my back (as I will his). I have to feel like he's competent in some way over me and handles things for us, not a bumbling idiot all around. I will do the same for him in other ways.

we are actually perfect for each other . we each balance out the strengths and weakness's we have .

if anything i think we are to a like in certain things .

we both love photography and we have no adult supervision when it comes to gear . it is not like i would look at a 3000 buck lens and the wife would go buy it and i will beat you with it .

with us we would end up getting 2 . so in that respect we have no one saying no ..

we could actually do a comedy show i think and we don't even try to be funny . we can fill episodes with the stuff that happens to me .

I have noticed the first time I bring a woman home, she notices that I have two cars in my two-car garage, there is furniture in all the rooms and clothing in all the closets, everything is clean and tidy, my laundry room is organized, I iron my own clothes, I'm a great cook, I do all my own yard work and pool maintenance, and am an overall handyman, etc. etc.

Some have actually asked me: "You do everything so well - what can I possibly add to your life?"

"Great that you asked... well there is one thing you can help me with."
