How many of you have husbands who love to lie around on the couch whining about how lousy they feel, but absolutely refuse to go to the doctor?

Mine won't consider going to the bedroom; he has to camp out in the living room so everyone in the house can suffer with him!

Mine would get boothed to the bedroom and I will sleep in my sewing studio. I have a house full with kids and I will not accept it if he is inconsiderate and gives it to everyone. I tread him good. Make him a nice little nest to sleep and bring him tea etc.

Sounds like mine! I love him dearly, but when he gets sick everyone suffers. Fortunately he is very rarely sick.

Sounds like a normal man to me. I have never figured out why when they are sick we are suppose to wait on them hand and foot plus feel sorry for them but when we are sick it's like yeah so what. We are suppose to keep right on going. When mine gets that way I tell him either go to the doctor or quit your whining I've got things to do. They are such babies. LOL.

Mine, you would never know he is sick. Heck, he was going to go to work when he thought he hurt his back, I insisted he get it checked out by the doctor and good thing I did. Turned out he had a collapsed lung, had to have surgery and was in the hospital for 2 weeks. Still, when he came home, no complaining.

Are they like that because they remember their mommies taking care of them? And of course, no one can replace their mommy. They say men look for their mothers in their future wives. I think the first thought that comes to their minds when choosing a future partner is, will she take care of me when I am sick? Sure we will. Get your jammies on, get in bed, here is a bell if you need anything. I will be in my sewing studio. Sorry if I don't always hear the bell.

Huh? Double clicked that one in error before the 'send' went through. Hmmm

Mine hardly ever gets sick, but whem he does, he hibernates like a good boy.
