What has happened to men?

[Pooh]

See Pooh...you are a very luchy woman.  I found one more or less like yours....but he does not like to go shopping,  he likes me to spoil him, but I feel so safe and protected with him.  He does his manly things like solving car problems, maintenance etc.  He was very helful with me when I was raising my children.  He car-pooled for many years and even prepared my kids lunch bags. 
Very lucky too.  He is not much of I love you person....but I am already used to it....he shows his love with actions eventhough we all women like to be told we are loved.  He does tell me that he loves me when I ask him.   Well.... its ok

Nana, I am so glad we found guys like that.  They are not perfect, as we are not, but they are good people.  I also think that many men just can't do the "I love you" all the time because of exactly what you said.  They think we should know that because of their actions.  It is nice to hear and mine does tell me every day, but it is actually his actions that makes me truly know it.  My TH told me he loved me to, but never showed it, so I didn't feel it.  They are just words and we are very lucky to have found them. 

You too Laurie!!!!
