All that proves is that women are only in it for shiny things…
Beg to differ, what it proves is
1. relationships take work and you need to put things into them to keep them working
2. that everyone likes to be thought of/loved/cherished- just imagine a minute if you bought a little something for your partner every time you bought something for you/your bike to go biking…not necessarily something big/expensive, but little things, like a favorite bar of chocolate, or a little potted plant, earrings, or you made up a bath for them, or if you did want to go expensive, you bought them new brakes, or fancy decals, or earrings, or a voucher to the spa… your partner would know that you were thinking of them and loving them even while you were away
It could/would change most people's relationships loads…
