    Speaking as a wife and mother, it’s likely the only time in her adult life that somebody focused on her wants and needs instead of expecting her to cater to theirs.

      Following that thought through fully: and her wants for those two days happened to be dick from a homeless man.

      Lol. I get what you’re saying though.

          The way that person is speaking I don’t think it’s only from the point of view of the fictional character.

          Yes - my point is I do most (almost all) of the cooking and cleaning because I love my partner. In fact I just washed her underwear by hand in the sink. Her needs are meticulously attended to, it’s not the default in heterosexual relationships that a woman be emotionally neglected.
