Weekly run to VS
112
Fri, 04-07-2006 - 10:40am

Ok so at lunch today I am going on my weekly run to Victoria Secrets to buy DW panties. This morning she said it's friday I get new panties and was a little excited about it. She requested lace g-strings in spring colors.

My question is

1)Guys do you frequenlty buy your SO panties/bras?

2)Ladies do you like it when we do?

I'm not sure the tone of this last message? You know I was joking right? And said "story of my freaking life" not your "freaking wife".

I was trying for totally not serious (taking the joke and running with it), sorry if it came out differently.

LOL, no drama on my account — I should probably just take it as a sign that I shouldn't be posting when I lack the mental capacity to make myself clear. Short night last night, followed by a long day today.

Last night with DW was good, but a little vanilla. I really need to plan out a more elaborate scene and set aside time for it, but that kind of play tends not to coexist very well with her "I'm in the mood now if you're interested" idea of spontaneity.

Well what normally puts her in the mood? Lots of sleep? A clean house? No kids around? Alone time before hand? Us women normally have some sort of pattern to it.

Try as I might, I seem to lack the secret decoder ring to be able to accurately answer that question. If I did, we might be doing it a lot more often.



What do you think my chances are of tracking down a friend at 9:00 on a Saturday night to join me?



LOL, I think that anyone who would like to be in a bar at 9:00 on a Saturday night is probably already in one. I'd love to help, but I'm (a) in Baltimore tonight, which puts me even further from any bars in your area than I normally am, and (b) have DD with me.



Sometimes he remembers I'm here. lol.



Men!! Just when you're ready to give up on us completely, we somehow manage to sneak back into your good graces. ;-)

Nah, around here now, in the past few years, no one shows up at the bar until 11 or so. Used to be 9:00. I still have time to go but most likely won't. I ran it by DH and he reminded me he has to leave early in the morning so I won't get to sleep in.


I know, about the men. I gave up telling him what to do, he just doesn't get it. But there are times he surprises me. A while ago, he told me he just didn't think of this stuff so I started putting post it notes around saying things like "have you kissed your wife today?" or "stop by the store and bring home flowers", it just didn't have the same feeling behind it so I stopped. lol. I may as well do it myself if I have to do that.


Are you romantic? I am a total romantic! The older I get, the more I want it. As a teen I couldn't care less. What's up with that?

I would describe myself as romantic, but my DW would probably not describe me that way. I only do things like buy flowers on occasions when I'm "supposed" to, and I have a thing about holidays that were invented by greeting card companies; but I kiss my wife — and tell her she's beautiful — every day. There was a thread over on SoMS recently about the "little things" that spouses do for each other, and I put some real effort into keeping up on doing those little things.

Yep, I know that thread. Good tips. Does your wife WANT you to be more romantic? I know a ton of wives that aren't looking for that at all. I like to think romance is not just candle light and roses. My DH has done a ton of stuff that isn't traditonally romantic but it still makes me melt.


We're down on the torch thread too now if you want to pop down. I need some more questions.

I'm a total romantic.

I buy flowers at least once a week when I'm shopping - have them sent to her work now about once a month. Never leave the house without a kiss and a hug. Suprise here with new outfits, text her cell phone a couple of times a day just to say "I love you". Send here little erotic emails about once a week, leave gift certs under her pillow, in the seat of her car, in her purse for getting her nails done, hair done, massage. Schedule a weekend get away at least once ever 4 months to a local hotel for a spa weekend for both of us.

LOL, so many of the things she got differ ever so slightly from what she thought she wanted...

She wanted a romantic, and wound up with a perv...
She wanted someone clean cut, and wound up with a man whose chin she's never actually seen...

But she also wanted someone who loves her deeply and truly, and who never forgets that fact, and that she most certainly got.

Heading down to the torch thread to turn up the temperature on your grilling.
