Does your husband cook dinner, clean the house, buy you roses, and cards, sometimes candy ... perfume .. and other things just because.

i only get flowers when we had a fight and he knows it was his fault. he helps around the house because he knows he has to. he'll cook, which is awesome too. but the thing i find the most romantic is the thing he does when he thinks i won't notice. in the morning, when i'm asleep (and look awful), he makes sure nothing wakes me. every so often, he'll touch my cheek lightly or stroke my hair, gently kiss me. i pretend to be sound asleep. it just makes my heart race and makes me realize that all the flowers and perfume in the world could never, ever be the same as those precious moments when he treats me like the most delicate, beautiful woman in the world.

I think men have a different idea of being romantic.
Mine thinks not throwing his nasty socks at me is being romantic, LOL
It's the little things that count - flowers and perfume aren't important to guys so they don't think they'd be important to us.
I find it much more impressive when I come home to see he's vacuumed the floor, knowing he NEVER does any household chores.
Men a lot of times work on the house to show you how much they love you. I don't get it, but I was having an argument with an ex about not being more romantic and the first thing he pointed out was all the stuff he was doing to the house. IDK - maybe a guy can explain it better, but now that I KNOW this is a guy thing, I look for it and respond accordingly.
I get calls every day at work just to tell me he loves me and can't wait to spend time with me. He's also a chef, so I rarely cook too :) Cards though - those usually come on birthdays and other hallmark holidays

My husband is the romantic type even though there are some things that he just won't do. He cooks dinner on occasion, he buys roses for me and chocolates on our own special days, and other things just because. However, when it comes to cleaning the house, he turns into a big child. But he'd go out of his way to please me to any extent.

Yes. But he is not much of a cook and is not a good cleaner and I think flowers and perfume and stuff are a waste of money. Except chocolate. Instead I prefer cuddle time and so does he. He is sweet and funny and keeps me laughing. Sometimes he will "ask me out" and we go to dinner and a movie and he makes it feel like we are dating like way back when.

My husband is great. He cuddles with me, holds my hand, kisses me all the time,cooks and cleans. One of the best suprises he ever gave me was when he created a computer program that gave me clues that related to our relationship such as what was the first movie we ever saw together and I had to find that DVD and then a clue was attached with a code I had to enter and then another clue would pop up. The scavenger hunt eventually led me to a beautiful diamond necklace and earrings. I am very lucky!!!

I cant complain. He doesnt cook and clean, but he is very affectionate--he buys gifts and watches ebay for clothes I might like. He travels, and when he is away, we email A LOT. He also calls me when he travels. He still has had some behaviors that were causing us some troubles, but we have worked on those and our marriage is getting better all the time.

Yes, he cooks dinner or helps me when I cook. We prepare lunch together the night before but when I'm leaving the house in the morning to go to work he has my lunch all packed and ready. He's surprised me with flowers that he's arranged himself. He likes cuddling when we're watching t.v. on the couch or in bed. He's written me letters. He takes me out to dinner. The best thing of all is that he does things without me having to tell him because it comes from his heart. As long as we reciprocate the affection, it works.

LOLOLOLOL
Riiiiight.
Here's what my husband got me for Christmas last year (and I was shocked to receive anything, to tell the truth): a $10 gift card to Starbucks. Lame gift, but it's the thought that counts, right? Ha! Turns out someone gave it to him and he didn't want it! He told me this!
After 9 years of this, I've finally told him we're through. You're right, little things go a long way. Years of neglect and being inconsiderate will ruin a marraige.

Not very often. But the thing that fills my love tank the most are things he says and the time we spend together. Although, a love note or rose would be nice every once in a while.

No he doesn't ! but he does give touches and great kisses . He a sweet guy and treats me so good I won't complain to much. He works hard so I can stay at home with the kids and I rather have that than roses.
