I am a girl.
A romantic, spoiled, sometimes whiny girl. I can own that. Hangry happens.
I am also strong-willed, independent, courageous and decisive.
What, I can’t be both?
Here’s the kicker…
When I hit my PMS, having a bad day, the world has me down, I feel lonely in a house full of people, and ugly despite new hair, new clothes, and new mani-pedi…. (even though LOGICALLY everything is just fine)
It’s time for you to step up, take the bull by the horns, bite the bullet. Be my man because you have a superpower you may not be aware of….it’s a power to HELP!!
Here it is. Your actions can make or break my day.
Don’t ask me what’s wrong because I don’t freaking know.
Don’t ask if I’m PMSing. That will just make it uglier.
Don’t laugh when I cry my eyes out at the latest American Express Commercial. Hand me a Kleenex.
Just hold me.
Hug me.
Bring me chocolate or flowers for no reason.
Rub my back as you walk by.
Tell me a dumb joke.
Empty the dishwasher or vacuum the floor, without me nagging for help, I hate those jobs.
Pick up dinner on the way home from work.
Tell me you love me, love our life, our kids, our world. I know you do, just tell me again.
Tell me everything is going to be all right.
Send me a sweet text or e-mail! You won’t belive the power of that text.
Tap into your “superpower”…figure out what I need, because honest to God I don’t and insider tip, I’m one burnt casserole away from a nuclear meltdown.
I just need you to look into my soul and become…..Senor Mind Reader.
Sigh.
Thanks, Hun.
What a lovely post and it holds so much truth. Every husband should have to read this.
It’s like every woman is married to the same man, just in a different costume
My hubby must have a superpower because it always seems to know what and what not to say!
This need to go on my fridge 🙂 It is like your in my head hehe
Haha i love this and the honesty!
Having 4 grown daughters along with myself, hubby instinctively knew when to grab us chocolate BEFORE all the dang meltdowns!! Praise be 🙂
This is so on point!
“Don’t ask me what’s wrong because I don’t freaking know”
Yup. 🙂
Yes to all of this, but especially the chocolate (or sour candy) either one is good to me! And a back-rub too! Or watch the kids while I soak in a hot bath with a good book.
Tell me you love me, love our life, our kids, our world…..I’m not crying, you’re crying. #goals ❤️
