Email of the Day

Dr. Laura:

Because I've listened to you for decades and read all your books, I thought I knew it all, but I was surprised to find out I don't.  I loved listening to your show when men called in to talk about their wives.  I was left in tears at the love they spoke about in those calls.  One caller mentioned that his wife changed out of her "day" clothes before he got home from work because she dressed for him.  Wow.  That hit me hard.

I am my husband's girlfriend - dinner is always ready for him, I give him kisses at the door, BUT I've always worn my son's hand-me-down sweats and t-shirts all day.  I thought my husband didn't care.  What did clothes matter when he sees me naked a lot?  Well, that caller made me realize my mistake.

I tossed out all the hand-me-down clothes and bought several new, sexy outfits to wear specifically around the house.  My teenage daughter noticed and said, "why are you wearing all those stupid outfits Mom?"  I didn't answer.  My husband didn't mention my change in wardrobe either at first, but a few days later, when we were alone, he grabbed me and got all kinds of frisky.  Later on, he told me "it's those darn shorty shorts and sexy tops you're wearing!  It drives me crazy!"  

Thanks, Dr. Laura, for reminding me to always continue looking for ways to improve myself and my marriage!
