I think it has a lot to do with being in a relationship with a man and having him spend weekends with me. (Besides the obvious that I am perceived in public as a woman thanks to FFS)
Besides him constantly saying how cute I am, just doing the usual stuff, fixing him dinner...even cleaning and doing the dishes, yes I wish he'd help me more even as a guest but..I don't even mind that.
Being a Sicilian man, he is quite macho and it just reminds me consantly that not only is he the opposite sex but amost like another species!
Anyway, he just left, he is going to stay with me next week while I am recovering form surgery. That will be the most time we will have spent together. Should be nice.
