Because I love you


To me, love is a contract of marriage between two people.

Because I love you should love me in bed. Love is only one way and

how it benefits me only. You should stay home, cook, and

take care of the children because that is your job. I'll

bring home the paycheck while you try to do math

even though it is okay if you can't do math. I'll be the 

bad cop while you'll be the good cop. When I bring home

gifts for when we agrue to give you to make it up

to you, you will accept them and forgive me always. 

 

What do you think love is? To me, love is a relationship

between two people who love each and get married.

We both take care of the children. There is no such

thing as bad cop or good cop. I'll work part-time

while you work full-time. Gifts can't buy forgiveness 

or affection. Love is both ways and tries to 

put each other's interests ahead of each

others.
