I am about to generalize a bunch, I'm sorry to anyone who does not fit the stereotypes I am about to apply, but I am frustrated. Why is the majority of men's idea of romance fucking while watching football? Why do they forget important anniversaries, and not give a shit about the apparently "girly" sentiments such as taking the time to write a note to express affection or express appreciation through gestures... I am not looking for gifts, I am not looking for any outstanding amount of effort on his part, but a little bit goes a long way. I am with the most compatible person for me I have ever been with, but I am getting really irritated with his lack of desire? ability? I have no clue? to express his love and appreciation...Maybe I am being high maintenance, but I think everyone deserves and desires a little bit of validation now and again. I mean the guy didn't even remember our anniversary, I am not "that" girl who expects a production every month, but it is nice to celebrate at landmarks like 6 months, and he totally forgot and signed us up to go to his company christmas party. awesome! just what I want to do on our day, sit around with a bunch of greedy right wingers...I dunno..venting is good. It is especially frustrating since I just addressed this very issue with him not even a week ago. poop. The vast differences between the female and male brain chemistry is a cruel joke! We think soooooooo differently. I mean this isn't the most important thing to me, Robb is so supportive, and kind. He and I have so much in common, and have great communication, we are open and honest with eachother, and so far it is the healthiest relationship I have ever been in...So something this insignificant shouldn't get me down this much, but it kind of does. Lame. I need to be more appreciative of the things that he does do, and the person that he is, and stop focusing on the negative qualities that inevidably everyone possesses.
