"Do you lay out his clothes for him?
Do you get up and make him breakfast?
Do you pack him a lunch?
Do you clip his nails?"
I answered a big fat NO to all of these, her eyes were big as she looked at me in disbelief.
Sorry Babe. found here
No,I don't lay out my husbands clothes. He is a grown up and has opinions about what he wants to wear. I don't iron either. I will buy him Costco wrinkle free shirts, but if he wants them crisper than that he does it himself. And he does. He dreams of the day we have enough in the budget to take his shirts to the cleaners and when that happens, I will most certainly go pick up his clean crispy shirts on hangars in plastic once a week.
No, I don't wake up at 4 a.m to make him breakfast. I wake up at 4 a.m to feed a baby. He grabs a breakfast shake, yogurt and a piece of fruit and eats on the way to work. I do however buy all those things for him and makes sure the fridge is stocked.
No, I don't pack his lunch. I do try to make sure there are leftovers in the fridge so he can grab a tupperware and a fork.
And, NO, I most certainly do not clip his nails. Seriously? I did get him to start using nail clippers instead of his teeth. It only took 5 years.
So judge me if you'd like.
I love to support my husband as he supports our family, but if he is having to clip his own nails, he may have settled for the wrong girl.

Thanks for the good laugh. And I'm glad I'm not alone in this!
I think it is a strange thing to do most of those things for anyone under the age of 18.
Ask those question in reverse:
Does your husband lay out your clothes for you?
Does your husband wake up with you and make your breakfast?
Does your husband make you a lunch?
Does your husband clip your finger nails for you?
If you choose to do one or more of those things out of love, I can understand that.
Really, it just sounds like mothering your spouse.
It sounds creepy to me.
HAHAHA, I am cracking up. Thanks for the good laugh. I don't do any of those either, but I don't think Damon's too upset about it. The only one I know for sure he'd love for me to do is make his lunch. And someday down the road I will, when I'm not wiping poopy butts and washing loads of peed on bedding. But for now, he can manage :)
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! i'm not sure which question makes me laugh the most! i'm with you, all the leftovers are tupperwared up and ready for a lunch and sometimes i'll put one on the counter for him.
clip his nails? i want you to take a covert picture of this new friend and put it on this blog. i need a face. you could label it, "husband's keeper". i just can't fathom this person being real.
