From Flying Stiletto....
Boyfriend,
I am writing this to save us a fight. This is my instruction manual. If you send me you instruction manual, I will be very very grateful. I will follow it.
I am a typical woman, I need flowers/jewelry/cards. It reminds me that you care about me and that you took the time to think about me and do something. I look at the flowers, or wear the gift, or read the card over and over again and remember how amazing you are. I brag to my friends about what a great boyfriend you are. I feel loved and warm and fuzzy. I know these things are not important to you (at all) but they are very important to me! You can think I am selfish, or materialistic, or think I worry about stupid things that don't matter, but the fact of the matter is, these things are important to me. Please keep that in mind for the rest of our relationship! I will be very happy, appreciative, and give you lots of love in return.
These are important dates:
Valentines Day: February 14th
My Birthday: October 11th
Christmas
Promotions/Accomplishments
(Flowers/cards just because are nice too)
On these days I will be very depressed if there is no sign of your love. It could be taking me out on a date or dinner with reservation (meaning you planned in advance). If there is nothing, I will be very very depressed. Believe me, we have been through this.
I will start off my grieving period by eating everything chocolate in the house. Then I will eat everything I can find with refined carbohydrates until I make myself sick. Then I will feel absolutely disgusting and I'll lie in bed feeling like I'm going to throw up for a few hours. Then I will turn angry and not want to talk to you. When you finally call (clueless) I will be short with you on the phone and start a big fight. There will probably be tears.
I don't want any of this to happen. I know, even though it's a stupid woman thing and it doesn't make sense to you, it will still happen.
Like I said, I am open to any instruction manuals you may have. In fact, it would be so much easier, if you had some instructions for me so I don't screw up and hurt your feelings! I care about you and I want to make you happy everyday, just like I'm sure you do for me. Ok, that all. Save this. Refer to it as needed. Mwah!!!
Your Girlfriend
