Thinking about my Husband makes me smile. He is a great father and husband, is funny, and would give the shirt off his back for anyone in need. I am lucky to have met him and tricked him into marrying me.
Sometimes, when I am bored, I think about what he wants out of our life, our marriage, what our future holds. I was making his sandwich for the next day's lunch, something I do every night, and paused to reflect on him, as a man. And the answer to one of the biggest questions, what does he really want, hit me like a ton of pastrami on rye:
Sex and sandwiches!!
This man, who is somewhat complicated at times, really only requires two things from me to make him happy!! My god, all this time I thought I had to be knowledgeable about certain topics, share his views on world politics, hold his same view about Jennifer Aniston being a bore. Not the case! All I have to do to keep my man happy is make his sandwiches and throw in a side of sex.
My good friend also confirmed my revelation the other night. She was frustrated with her husband because she felt all he did was sleep, eat, and want sex. YES!! I exclaimed, it is the Sex and sandwich theory! I shared my story, we got a good laugh at how simple our men really are, and got on with our lives.
Years ago, I would have been annoyed at the thought of my husband only wanting me for the aforementioned things. What about my mind? I went to college, I am smart, I can talk about all kinds of things. But, the whole revelation is kind of a relief. Most of my mind, as well as my ass, has turned to mush, so it is good to know I don't have to be up on all the current events.
All I need to know is how to make a good sandwich and leave a trail of crumbs to the bedroom.
