Do men get bored easily?
My friend Paul used to warn me about keeping things spicy in my relationship: “You don’t want to ever let things get stagnant. Men get bored easily.” That’s great advice, now who is telling my man the same thing, because women get bored too, right?
There is some work involved in keeping your man’s attention. It is easy to get too comfortable and complacent. That’s when things start getting less sexy. However, should women really worry about men getting bored too easily? Why is it always on the woman to keep things hot?
Men, do you agree that some men get bored easily? What happens when he does get bored? Does that lead to wandering eye and seeking attention from other people?

I don’t even put the candy in a bowl anymore…I grab it from the bag and hand it out. I hope I have a good amount of kids come by so I don’t have leftover candy. Last year, I only got maybe 10-15 kids. Hoping it’s better this year.

Jake – Our little ole cafeteria lady was giving out candy today during lunch. I saw her reaching to give me candy and I was mentally screaming, “Please not the candy corn, please not the candy corns”…guess what? She passed over the Kit-Kats, Twix and Snickers to give me CANDY CORNS!

@Bluz: Are the Reese’s pumpkins like the Reese’s eggs they do at Easter? Those things are addictive!!!
@Sassy: I mean, really…who BUYS that stuff? Somebody must, because they keep making it.
Oh, and those strawberry things, where the wrapper looks like a strawberry? And those wax things shaped like bottles with liquid inside? Hmmmm, what else?

Man I gave up sweets back in March. Splurged once on my birthday a couple weeks ago. The first two weeks after I gave up sweets, this conversation would have been killing me. I’m all for the “other” chocolate though. Can’t give up all my vices. lol

@Jake: Unless you also answer to Paw Paw, do not buy those strawberries. Those things are gross, and should only be found in candy jars at old folks’ houses.
@Sassy: I used to wonder who bought them. They just look so gross. And some of them are root beer flavored. Which reminds me….how come the “Mystery” flavor in the bag of dum dums is always dern root beer? I hate root beer.

It would be funny if I gave out moth balls instead of candy. Don’t you know one moth ball can ruin a whole bag of candy? It’ll have everything smelling and tasting exactly like moth balls.

But there is one thing I can say about Jody
Jody knows how to make a woman feel good.
Aint’ that right, ladies? I said ain’t that right?

LOL@Sassy. It’s a song by Marcy Playground. Check it out….
Hangin’ round downtown by myself
And I had so much time
To sit and think about myself
And then there she was
Like double cherry pie
Yeah there she was
Like disco superfly
I smell sex and candy here
Who’s that lounging in my chair
Who’s that casting devious stares
In my direction
Mama this surely is a dream

The best way to build a relationship is to do something together. The best way is to learn something new as a couple. What keeps couples together is mental, not sexual.
And those who cannot entertain themselves cannot entertain others.
