Although a man may appreciate<br />
caring and assistance<br />
sometimes, too much of it will<br />
lessen his confidence or turn<br />
him off.<br />
You likely have a honey-do list.<br />
If you don?t have one, go ahead<br />
and start!<br />
went ahead and used my<br />
lightning fast reflexes and killed<br />
that bug DEAD!<br />
Bethany reaches over to me and<br />
hugs me tight and says?<br />
~From John Gray?s Wonderful<br />
Book, Men Are From Mars,<br />
Women Are From Venus.<br />
Now let?s jump in and<br />
diagnose that story, pull it<br />
apart a bit and see what we<br />
got . See if you understand the<br />
big takeaways.<br />
The #1 t hing:<br />
Your man NEEDS to save the<br />
day! He NEEDS to save his<br />
princess. He NEEDS missions<br />
to do in your honor!<br />
(ESPECIALLY if his love<br />
language is ?acts of service!?)<br />
He wants to slay dragons in<br />
your honor, my dear. Problem<br />
is, there are no dragons to<br />
slay. So what can you do<br />
instead?<br />
Then make a big deal about that<br />
when he ?conquers and slays?<br />
things on that list.<br />
Just like the Knight did when they<br />
threw a huge banquet in his<br />
honor.<br />
I shared this story on my wedding<br />
night in sharing the story about<br />
the MOMENT I knew I wanted to<br />
spend forever with my Bethany.<br />
The MOMENT I knew that I fell in<br />
love with her. I?ll tell it to you again,<br />
here, if you want?<br />
It was on our second date and<br />
after going to the drive-in theatre,<br />
got together after the movie and<br />
cuddled at her place. On her couch<br />
we watched The Best Of Chris<br />
Farley On Saturday Night Live.<br />
?Oh my HERO!?<br />
Holy cow, did that feel<br />
awesome! I remember feeling<br />
that and having her hold me<br />
tight and thinking, ?Uh-oh, I'm<br />
done for!<br />
I really love this girl. I don?t ever<br />
want her to let go!?<br />
And it happened because I was<br />
able to be her Knight there!<br />
So make a big deal about them<br />
?slaying? that changed lightbulb!<br />
Don?t just do a boring<br />
?Thank-you, here?s another ?job?<br />
for you to do? ?<br />
Instead throw a FEAST in their<br />
honor! Make him feel special<br />
and powerful!<br />
When you do that stuff for him,<br />
he will naturally want to loosen<br />
up and do stuff for you!<br />
An annoying fly comes buzzing<br />
around, ruining our romance. It<br />
landed near us on the couch and I<br />
7<br />
29<br />
That?s when the Law of<br />
Reciprocity kicks in, Mom. But it<br />
works from you showing it first.<br />
It?s in our Man Code DNA to
