How often do you wear cologne?

I've been married for a couple of decades and my wife keeps buying me new bottles of cologne at most gift giving occasions. I've still got the bottles of cologne she gave me when we were dating. And I hardly ever wear cologne.

So, a few questions:

- Who among you wear cologne to work on a regular basis?

- Should I interpret these gifts as a not so subtle hint that I stink?

- Or is it that she has some fantasy notion of what her husband should be like, and in her fantasy, her husband is a gorgeous model who wears cologne and sails a yacht every day?

It's either one of two things:

1. She thinks you smell like arse.

2. She's fricking someone else.











Now that I think about it, it might be both.

And one spray guys. One spray

Or she doesn't care enough to buy you a gift you actually like or use.

What's it like to be in a loveless marriage?

I'll put some on maybe 5 or 6 times a year.

It sounds like your wife just isnt very creative at giving gifts.

She just seems like a lazy, uncreative, unthoughtful gift giver. Cologne/perfume is the classic, "shite I can't think of anything to get... Ahh frickit gift". Although I can only imagine after 20 years of marriage, it's probably hard as hell to come up with something inspired to give.

How do I know this? I bought tons of perfume for various girlfriends over the years.

This. Especially in the summer in the south - doesn't take long to break a sweat when wearing a suit in 90+ degree heat.

And no, I'm not fat.
