he asked and probed which is a drag....Then he told her she looks beautiful which was both pursuit AND a way to invalidate her choices for spending AND it revealed snooping.
the "she looks beautiful TO ME " is a thinly veiled way to control what she spends her money on and suggests that HER view of her appearance isn't worthy of expenditures, only HIS views.
Come to think of it, Except for implants, I rarely hear of h's who overtly support their w's spending money on their looks...but it's how WE see ourselves that matters.
I live in Southern California so suffice to say, aging is not allowed.
Every woman over 40 who can afford it, has gotten Botox-IF they wait that long.
Many also get radiesse or juvaderm (but if you think her wrinkles disappeared the same day she got Botox, I think you're mistaken. It takes a few days to a week to take effect).
Forget Southern California, my family is on the east coast, which is where I grew up. There, More than half my friends back home have gotten Botox, and a third have had more "work" done. It's money that stops the ones who have not had work done.
So, using that east coast area as more "mainstream", I hope you see that it's very common for women to get this. Far more often than men.
Of ALL the women who can afford it, whom I know, only one refuses to get Botox...she's rare.
BTW I've had Botox and have never told my h about it, unless he asks. I guess I just feel it's a woman's right to not give away her secrets.
Yes if he asked, I'm vague at first, but if pressed, I fess up. But come to think of it, he's never asked me what it costs.
Hmm, I'll have to give him a high five for that...
