(Two posts in one day... I'm possessed!)
So, I read that one of the first signs to watch out for concerning a cheating partner is the sudden desire to improve their appearance. On one hand, it makes sense, but on the other...
I'm always trying to improve my appearance. My husband HAS asked why I want to lose more weight, get my nails done, etc. Sometimes, I think he thinks I'm doing it for someone else. No. I'm trying to impress my damn self. From a woman's perspective, it really CAN be about wanting to better ourselves...
Anyway, my husband went out last weekend with a friend. I just commented on a thread about clubbing without your spouse and it got me to thinking about my situation. The thing is, I PUSHED him to go out. He hasn't spent time with friends in a long time and the one friend who asked him I like a lot (although he can be a pretty crazy drinker... Serbian, lol) and I just wanted my husband to do SOMETHING with someone other than me. I thought he was going to be out all night, but nope. He came home before midnight. Apparently, him and his friend didn't enjoy the scene. (His friend used to be a CRAZY party guy, but he recently got a Big Boy job and this was his first Saturday off in 6 months.)
So A few days ago my husband says he'd like to try Rogaine. I had to force myself not to laugh because I've been suggesting this for YEARS. My husband has SLIGHTLY thinning hair and I wanted him to tackle it before it became actually thin. I told him it's worth the long term investment and do buy the product monthly. Of course, when I suggested it I was just being a nag, lol.
My guess is he either felt self conscious seeing single men with their luxurious hair on Saturday OR someone (maybe a female he had a thing with in the past, whatever) made a comment. His friend is pretty blunt so he could have said something, too.
In sum, it doesn't bother me that my husband's cameo appearance in the night scene inspired him to take better care of his appearance. (I honestly think this is what sparked his desire to actually do something about his hair.) I'm HAPPY. He's going to be even HOTTER with thicker hair, lol. If it took a night out to make him realize hey, he COULD do something about it then I get to reap the benefits of having a hotter and more confident husband...
That or he's cheating... Do'h!
