[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s weird.  Your DH doesn’t freshen up for you.[/quote]

You don't know that.  At all.

I comb my hair, and pop a mint before I get home to see DW.  Make sure my dress shirt is tucked properly, etc.  I want to look good for her.  I want her to stay attracted to me.

And not gonna lie, sometimes, on the weekends, if we're going casual (just in a t-shirt), I'll bang out 100 push-ups to try to get a little pump to look better in the shirt.  [/quote]

+1 from a long-married woman. People like the PP saying "Your DH doesn't freshen up for you" have never actually known a guy who was thoughtful like you and like my DH.

My DH wears suits every single day to work (when he goes to the office) and though he's no clothes horse, he always takes a second to tighten and fix his tie (he loosens it a lot, he doesn't love them), adjust his shirt, button his jacket, run his hand over his hair before he comes in the door. I know he does that before he leaves the office to see other people too! But the fact he still does it reflexively before walking in his own door tells me he wants to present himself a certain way when we first meet each evening. It's his reflex but it's old-fashioned and lovely. It makes me want to remove that tie and jacket very quickly, too. He is aware of this. [/quote]
