Wife says so, but it may be a trap. She’s been talking about a couple weeks in Paris for our 20th...I think nothing for this one pretty much sets that in stone.

IDK though, still feels like I know I’m fricking up. Dinner date enough?

Of course. The only ones that matter are divisible by 5.

Report back with how it goes.

If she wants a couple of weeks in fricking Paris, she better be cool with mediocre for the 17th 18th and 19th.

may be? baw, after 17 years you haven't broken that code? of course it's a trap, you'll have hell to pay if you don't do something for her, pro tip: I keep a stash of "emergency" special occasion gifts, pre-wrapped, in a gun safe in my closet just for such set ups

If there's one thing I know, it's that when women say they don't care, they truly mean they don't care.

You will be tired of Paris after 5 days.

You seem to need a lot of help making it through everyday life

Our 17th is tomorrow. Congrats. The wife and I don’t buy gifts for each other for bday and anniversaries. We decide on a budget and buy our own gifts. We both end up getting what we want. The wife is low maintenance and doesn’t do flowers, so she doesn’t expect anything.

Did 3 weeks in France for our 10th and I’ve gotten off pretty easy since. Just take her to dinner tonight and keep bringing up our 20th trip may just work...
