GW, when I met the man who would later become my H, I felt so special when I was with him. I always (I think) acted my best b/c I felt my best. He brought that out in me. I felt pretty and probably was at my prettiest stage b/c that all works from the heart outward. He made me feel pretty! I'm sure I looked at him with stars in my eyes and I can assure you that he had my respect and I never took him for granted. I saw him as being a treasure, and he also made me feel valuable. So, it was all about how he made me feel the very best that I could possibly be. And, of course, my admiration toward him. It works both ways.
If you've paid much attention to how women talk about fashion, you've noticed that they usually compare it to their feelings and how that piece of fashion makes them look & feel. If she feels that the dress or shoes makes her look thinner, taller, younger, prettier, etc., then there is a good chance she is going to get it. She may clean the house in a worn out pair of jeans and a sloppy shirt and tennis shoes.......but they don't make her feel fantastic. They are just practical for the job at hand.
Don't get confused more with some of these silly little things I write. Don't misunderstand what I am saying about being practical and comfortable. I am not suggesting that a H not be responsible and dependable, nor am I saying that he is not one to feel comfortable around. I was just trying to get you to see something else. I know we females can be very complex creatures to you men.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
