He text back to say he had. I then text him to ask him to send me a nice romantic message. He text back that he was sorry I had had to walk to work. Is that the best he could do? Please tell me there are some romantics out there.

I would have texted you the following message.
While you had a difficult time walking to work, just think of how you made the world more beautiful presenting yourself to the many people who had a wonderful opportunity to see that sweet smile.

Your car wasn't working and he had to call a mechanic the last thing he is thinking about is romance he's wondering how much the car will cost, will he need to get another one, how long will it take to fix it? Why would you expect him to be romantic at that moment and then be disappointed that he didn't live up to your expectations. Give the guy a break if he's a good husband stop looking for problems.

heh heh I think that was a funny text and if my b/f had sent me that it would have made me laugh - c'mon it was funny! And what you deserve for demanding he be romantic - c'mon, men don't do romantic 'on demand'!! When was the last time you did a romantic thing for him? Maybe it would have been nicer if you'd texted instead 'thanks for phoning the mechanic, and for everything else you do for me, I love you'. Maybe next time, if you are about to 'tell' him to be romantic, you just did the romantic thing for him instead and show him how nice it is when someone does that, then he's more likely to do it back and you get a nice surprise - and it will be a surprise because you didn't ask for it!

The trouble is men don't realise that a few well-meant but overslushy words make all the difference to women. And the men who do realise this may not actually be more romantic in thought or more intsense in their feelings. After all I could tell my computer to send an email every day to my girlfriend saying "I love you, you amazing goddess" but she'd probably dump me for spamming her.
Basically, men can never be as romantic as the men in the books written by women.

Yes there are romantics out there. I am one of them. But the reason he didn't text you the romantic message is because you were expecting him to. I understand that you want him to leave you lovey messages, but he has to want to do it himself. He may have been upset about the car not working also and had his mind on other things.

Thats the same sort of thing my husband would have done! Actually my husband is really romantic. I am 23 weeks pregnant and in a couple of weeks he is taking me to a health spa for a weekend away, and in a couple of months he is taking me to see Madam Butterfly in the Royal Albert Hall in London as when we first got together I told him I would love to see it. As for the romantic text, he hasn't a clue!

Is that the best you can do: "Now send me a nice, romantic message, dear...." I think he passed the test. He considered you.
BTW: Learn how to flirt with him and then he won't need to be told. You could have said: "Hey, Babe, since you were a good boy and had me covered....I'll show you how I say Thank You tonite....." and you'd have gotten something romantic back.....

Instead of asking him to send you a romantic message, why didn't you just send him a romantic message?
I certainly don't get it.

It is trivial things such as this that cause major problems in a marriage. Just be glad he was sending the mechanic. My first husband would have left me on my own.
