I brought the widower neighbor chicken and dumplings and he offered to be the next Mr. Squirrel if something happens to my husband. So I think you may be on to something.

I'm totally on to something. I just had a HS reunion, and my mind was blown by the sweet sweet things women pulled me aside to say to me. I really felt that tug of the way women used to interact with men. I'm not talking sex; I'm talking about some kind of love and respect from decades ago. Glad the husbands and BFs didn't hear, lol but it really was intimate and sweet. Bringing a man a casserole is sexy AF. Any expression of respect and femininity is sexy and seductive. Maybe because it's such an old school expression of that feminine need to take care of men that men secretly crave but never admit. Especially with the way modern women dump so much on you. It's exhausting.
