sexless marriage :(

Don't buy her clothes, btu get her a gift card to a clothes shop... that way you don't have to worry about getting the wrong size or something she doesn't like

This has to be a wind up....!!

I hope so! The first two posts made me laugh out loud and I'd hate to think that some poor woman was really married to someone so dense!

"it's not as if the house is particularly clean and tidy afterwards either"


lol, fairwell.

Please use the quote button when you want to respond to someone's post, it's much easier to see what's new.
AS for the rest of it, i can't believe the things you're saying are real as they're so stereotypically awful

I have never called troll on any thread but honestly this one is full of it!!

Everyone will get riled up and sucked into the bad husband thread and the poor wife who after doing all the house work and child care (and being criticised about it) is too tired for sex. Maybe she is overweight and never gets presents or romance or flowers from the hay fever suffering husband....

Blah blah troll

You see all that red hearty stuff in the shops right now? Buy some of it, book a restaurant for Feb 14th, get a baby sitter, go out and spend some quality time together.

Don't expect anything afterwards either. Just try to be a better husband

Pro husband tip: NEVER FORGET HER BLOODY BIRTHDAY

Although I agree with the sentiment of this suggestion, I disagree about booking somewhere on Valentine's Day.

Over-priced, very busy places.

I would try to arrange to take her out before VD.

OP - can you please use the 'quote' function as your posts are very confusing as it's hard to work out what other posters have said that you are quoting and what are your words.

If you want to spend an evening together, and she needs to spend the evening doing the housework, spend the evening together... doing the housework. Seriously, there's nothing more loving than when I'm elbow deep in a bowl of washing up, and my husband appears by my side with a dishtowel in hand, and starts to dry up. Really

And yes. She wants something for valentines day. Trust me. Even if it's just a card.

Also, another husband pro-tip... tell her how beautiful she looks, even if it's not true, just walk in the door when you get home from work and say 'Wow, you look really beautiful today'

(all the other commenters... I feel we should write a book on how to be a good husband... that, or get my OH to do it... he's pretty pro, and makes me look like a shabby wife -.- )'

is it really that simple? i tend to just let her get on with it while i catch up on telly.

Also, if she has had a problem with weight gain, that might explain why she hasn't worn her wedding ring, particularly when one is expecting, ones fingers swell, so she might not have been able to wear it then.

Seriously, just some costume jewellery shows you've thought about her. Send her a text right now telling her your thinking about her, and you miss her and you hope she's having a good day...

hope the quoting works. thank you for the suggestion. i'll try that now.

that's a horrible thing to say. i'm not a troll. this is really what's going on in my life. i'm not very good with all the emotional romantic stuff. my wife says she thinks i've got asbergers i'm so bad at it.
