“My boyfriend loves surprises (even though he'd never admit that), so I always come prepared. If I want him to go out with me and my girlfriends one night, or if I want him to help me clean the apartment, I make sure to stop and pick up something that he'll really love — or something that he's been hinting that he wants. There's no arguments, no huffing and puffing — just a little surprise and then he's in my pocket.”
