Point of Over Perfection: Is there a point where you have become so good at something that if you fail to do that thing exactly like you do everyday that the people around you will become violently angry? I am not talking abuse here. But I am saying Joe Average say he finds himself the perfect woman. She does everything the way he likes it. This goes on for years. He's happy, he's the envy of all his friends. But for some reason his girlfriend does something a little different one day. Or gets busy and neglects to do somthing he has come to expect as a matter of course. Is there a point that everyone human will become angry at the change? A point where you have trained someone to expect perfection so long that anything less is just in insult?

Why doesn't common sense kick in and that persons brain think hmmmm maybe she just forgot. Maybe she had a bad day. Its no big deal. So I have to cook my own dinner tonight. Or so I have to wear some clothes I don't like because my dovies are not clean yet. Or Its getting late and everything is not back in its proper place maybe just for tonight I will help her out by picking up with out being a jerk about having to do it.

I see quite a few guys who have the world at their feet, wonderful wives and girlfriends and they just don't apreciate them. Sure they love them when they are doing everything the way they like it. But should they slip even for a moment and all bets are off. What in a man makes them believe that they are so special that they deserve perfect obediance 24/7 365 or they feel cheated? Who is that perfect? Who deserves that kind of devotion? Why is it that the more you do for the ones you love the less they do for you?

Here is my issue with this. I like to do things for people. I enjoy making the world around someone I care about as comfortable for them as possible. In the past this has come back to bite me in the ass because they have decided that someone they abosoulutly had to have it that way all the time and if I made a mess or didn't feel like cooking that night, and it didnt matter the reason they would get mad at me or feel cheated or not cared for in some way. Sometimes I just have had too much for that day. Give me some attention give me some love and the desire to do the things you are missing will come back to me. For me I love the satisfaction of knowing I am doing a good job for someone I care about. When they start taking it for granted or worse ignoring me completly for extended periods of time I get upset. The worst way to hurt me is to ignore me. My mind will punish me far worse then anything that you could ever do to me. I have batteries to spare as long as I have someone who remembers to recharge them on regular basis.

CHuckles proper care and handling of your toys is essential for their long useful life.
