| If I want DH’s attention, I fix him a drink wearing just an apron and heels. If he doesn’t notice, I keep doing other housework until he does. Pretty soon he’s following me around the house. |
Are you for real? |
Sweet Jesus ... that's working on me already |
You're so gullible. You're talking to a dude with a lot of wishful thinking because he is watching too much po&&. No woman does that, especially after being married 20 years. |

Enthusiasm (in bed and in general). Not over the top but being present in the moment. Active listening in normal conversations. Asking questions. Genuinely laughing. Touching. Bump into him when you're in the kitchen and linger a little.
If you're into it, try some new stuff in bed or do stuff in other rooms in the house that might surprise him. In the morning, tell him something you want to do to him later and then follow through. Whatever you do in bed, do it like it's the only thing you want to do in that moment and have fun! |
I would make my husband a drink dressed like this. No way am I doing housework to try to get his interest lol. |
Speak for yourself. |
Not true, been together 26 years and my chick knows the power of the stiletto. |
| Wear FMP’s to bed |
Your chick? suuuurreeeeee

Pp here. I’m not mopping or cleaning the toilets! I pull clothes out of the dryer. Make the bed. Lightly dust. Things like that. I don’t know that my house actually gets cleaner. I just like it when he follows me around

I'm not the original PP, but I've done this multiple times. Granted, it was a lot more frequent earlier in our relationship, and we've only been together 15 years, so the version of this I did over the weekend doesn't count, I guess. As for the OP, it sounds like you need to figure out how to enjoy spending time with your husband. He lights up in those other interactions because he's having fun. The conversation is good, zesty, whatever. He enjoys the attention. You just have to figure out how to enjoy being around him for real, so that the laughter and sparkle are spontaneous. There is no study manual for "how to be charming to your husband" here. |
Vacuum under furniture. 😉 |
Yes zesty is the word. He has pretty zesty conversations with other women. We do need to work on that. |
