Dating and Manipulation

Jason always says I didn’t tell the whole truth when we were dating. He says that I told him I loved camping and riding bikes but left out the part about only wanting to do those things when the temp outside is between 65 & 70 degrees and there are no bugs in sight and no good options of movies to go see. So basically he thinks I manipulated my way into marrying him (I’m saying all of this in jest, of course…we couldn’t be happier). The flip side is this…when we were dating we went shopping together quite a bit. One of the first times we went shopping, I took him to my very favorite store – Banana Republic. I picked out A LOT of things I thought might look good on him, and I wanted him to try it all on. Now, he’s the guy who looks good in anything he tries on…tall, trim & slim…so it all looked good! Considering the fact that virtually all of his wardrobe was from 1987 (yes, I came across TWO V-neck sweaters), I thought it would be good if he bought pretty much all of what he tried on. Well, he ended up spending about $300 that night on clothes. He would never do that now!!! Thus, he manipulated me, too. :)
