Sciforums Housewifes and Mothers..Advice - SciForums.com

The little woman and I are taking off for a few days.

Nothing extravagant, just a short vacation from the kids with the main intent being of an intimate nature (her idea). Anyway, she's stuck with these kids day in and out and really needs this. I'm looking for suggestions to make her feel less "Mom" and more Hot Mamma from the onset.

She's extremely grounded in that she's not in to clothes, jewelry, hair/make up splurges or expensive accommodations, so it makes it a bit more challenging than just throwing her some money.Nevertheless, I'd like it seem as if I'd put at least some thought into this. We are not newlyweds and I'm known to be less than romantic at times.

Perhaps I'm barking up the wrong tree altogether.

She may not really want anything but a patient ear to vent to (which doesn't put me in "the mood"). But some ideas of fairly inexpensive gestures that would make her feel sexy (before the act) would be great.

Give her a set of cards with a request on them. Examples of requests: 1.

Good for one back massage 2.

Will result in receiving a surprise 3.

One Hug + One Kiss 4.

Will do the dishes for x occasions this week 5.

Good for 10 minutes of listening time You can make as many as you like and give them to her, she can use them as she likes

Let her sleep in. Let her sleep in for as long as she wants to. Give her time (when at home) away from the kids..

Ie. take the kids out for the day and give her a break. While away..

Lovely quiet dinners in a restaurant without children.

Not a mom or a housewife, but here's one thing: Good clothes she looks good in will make her feel better.

Going and picking out something she looks attractive in is fun.

A piece of jewelry that won't tarnish/crack (opals ) that's practical *is* a nice reminder you care.

Look, lots of women, especially smart women, say they don't care about clothes jewelry, etc.

If it looks good or has special meaning, we do.

Awesome.. You guys rule! See, I always forget that women get turned on by things that have nothing to do with sex. SAM, the card thing is great, I would have never thought of it. Bells, you hit it on the head.

One thing she did mention is that she hasn't been able to sleep late or nude in forever.

I fear though, I may have to leave the room for her to sleep in.

I'm restless and hurt all day if I lay in bed too long .

I think our hotel room will have a master bedroom with a door and a full kitchen, I could prepare breakfast if I'm quiet.Great Idea.

Thanks!

I am extremely grounded just like your wife, and I'm not into jewelry, clothes etc.

But nothing makes me feel sexier than a nice tasteful (and silky) boudoir set (robe and nightshirt). You can also make sure the hotel has a nice big bathtub and buy some candles and a nice soft scented bubble bath...

And then draw it for her.

” I think you're right and that's kind of what this is supposed to be about, sort of stepping out of her "dull and practical" everyday life.

Maybe I should insist that she pick out some nice things for herself before we go. Generally I avoid getting involved with that type of thing because I can't be sensitive enough and give my real opinion of clothing at the same time.

I would be inclined to tell her it all looks good at the risk of sounding insincere.

If there's one thing I've learned it's that there is no right answer to "do I look fat in this" ?

“ If there's one thing I've learned it's that there is no right answer to "do I look fat in this" ?

” The right answer is: You always look good to me.

I'm biased.

” Would you to pick it out yourself or would you want help from your partner or perhaps just a surprise gift?

As it stands the reaction would look like this:

M*W: One of the things every woman wants but doesn't get from her man are the "sweet nothings" in her ear.

Tell her how much she means to you.

Tell her she is beautiful and sexy.

Tell her you are going to spend the rest of your life with her, or tell her you can't live without her.

Usually the words are the hardest thing for a man.

It would be so much easier to go out and buy her a gift, but your words to her are worth more to her than anything you could buy.

However, buying her a couple of gifts wouldn't hurt, but it's got to be something that doesn't involve housework--vacuum cleaners, dish towels or blenders are forbidden.

Perfume (the good kind), lingerie (the sexy kind) and jewelry (the kind that don't turn green) are what you should go with.

Good luck and have a great time whatever you all decide to do!

” Oh god yes!!! And he can be Mom for a day.

My daughter goes "mom, mom, mom ,mom, MOM!!!!" He can answer her.
