First of all, never let your husband watch morning talk shows with you, unless you are prepared to deal with him when he hears them announce that a recent research study showed that women are most likely to give their man some lovin\u2019 on Thursday nights.\u00a0 All day today I have had to listen to Rollin yelling \u201cHey Baby, guess what night it is?!?!\u00a0 It\u2019s Thursday Night!\u201d<\/p>\n
This same study (conducted by St Tropez) also cites that:<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0*Women have their worst night\u2019s sleep on Monday nights<\/p>\n
*Women look their oldest each week at exactly 3:30pm every Wednesday<\/p>\n
*Women are the happiest on Friday\u2019s, which the study states may be attributed to the youthful, rosy glow they have after getting a little romance on Thursday evening.<\/p>\n
\u00a0The recommendations the study gives are for women to get 7 to 8 hours of sleep each night and plenty of good lovin\u2019 to keep them young and help prevent aging.<\/p>\n
Apparently there is some merit to their claim on how to stay young. \u00a0Dr. David Weeks, a neuro-psychologist (who published his results in a book called Superyoung: the proven way to stay young forever), did a ten year study that showed that married couples who are amorous three times a week look more than ten years younger than those couples who are only amorous twice a week.\u00a0\u00a0 Dr. Weeks study showed that not only do these couples look younger, but they also kept themselves in better physical shape for their partners.\u00a0\u00a0 His study concluded that because these couples looked younger they were more altruistic, confident, and had more intellectual activity.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I suppose the bottom line is this \u2013 the results of these studies were probably all written up by married men who were trying to get some attention from their wives \u2013 just teasing – the truth is that in researching it a little more I found that there were tons of studies that seemed to have been done which validate the fact that it\u2019s important for married couples to make plenty of time for romance in their relationship if they want to stay looking and feeling young.\u00a0 And since we are now officially in the month of February and its Valentine\u2019s this month, this is the perfect month to start making time for more romance in your marriage.<\/p>\n
But men this takes more than just avoiding eye contact with your wife all day as to avoid getting in any trouble with her, thus risking any romance that night.\u00a0 This takes doing plenty of small things all day long to let her know that you love her \u2013 like those sweet little text messages you USED to send her when you dated, or those little post-it notes on the mirror saying how beautiful she is (unless it\u2019s Wednesday and its 3:30pm in which case she will know you are lying), or doing the dishes and cleaning up for her \u2013 those little things will get you a lot more romance from your wife.<\/p>\n
And women, we need to do our part here too \u2013 show up, turn off the television (or at least pause the tivo), and wear something besides flannel pajamas or your jumpin jammerz zipper blanket with the feet built into them.\u00a0 Oh, the sacrifices we women make\u2026tee hee\u2026.<\/p>\n
Well, gotta run, after all, it is Thursday night \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Have a great weekend everyone!
