If you wife rejects the date, dont be surprised or hurt. Just say ok. Do not try to talk her into it.
IMO, I say no to the flowers, and no to the short notes. Your W doenst need words or tokens, she needs a man of action.
Dont TRY to kiss her. JUST KISS HER. If she says dont do that, you have lots of options.
say OK. say, damn woman first you complain I dont kiss you and now you complain when I kiss you. Make up your mind. smile at her. kiss her again. say, well you better leave then or I am going to kiss you again. If she gets mad, do NOT react. do not speak. just look at her. Do not be confused. You kissed her because YOU wanted to. Thats IT. She is your W.
