Get a maid for these services, but hang with somebody that lifts your spirit, not your garbage. As long as he does that, too - good!

I had a similar experience with a guy I&#039;m dating.  He was going into work today later than usual, so last night he said, &quot;I&#039;ll drive you to work in the morning.&quot;
I said, &quot;Oh, no, that&#039;s okay.  It&#039;s out of your way.  You can drop me off at the Metro if you want --&quot;
&quot;No,&quot; he said.  &quot;I&#039;m taking you.&quot;
So I shut up and stopped fighting.  :)</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love that scenario with him taking out the garbage &#8212; just basically saying, &#8220;I&#8217;m going to get it.&#8221;</p><p>I had a similar experience with a guy I&#8217;m dating.

He actually does wash dishes, cooks and does laundry. All HUGE pluses for a single mom - believe me.
There&#039;s much more to this story so I guess you&#039;ll all just have to trust me on this one - but I will be clarifying more in the future.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>KE &#8211; actually, this is just the tip of the iceberg, this post is just one example but I think small gestures like these actually stack up to equal a lot.</p><p>He actually does wash dishes, cooks and does laundry.

Just because he takes out the garbage, doesn&#039;t make him &quot;THE MAN&quot;, it only makes him the-garbage-man! Aim for more and do not get swiped off your feet by easy to impress tactics. Does he wash dishes, too? That would fall under the same &quot;look at me&quot; strategy/category!</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am surprised about all this praise.
