    Some people just express love that way. There's nothing wrong with it IMO.

    My partner does it. He's forever buying me things, even if sex is out of the question that week.

    I'm not really sure what MY way of expressing love is yet. I think it might be burping.

    In functional relationships, I think a man wants to give to a woman because it makes him feel good to provide for her or just to make her happy. The woman above who said her husband doesn't have to work for sex because she never turns him down ... that's a prime example. He is fulfilled in the relationship, so his natural inclination is to do things that make her happy. I think the reverse happens a lot, too. When a woman is happy in her relationship with a man, she's going to work harder to keep him happy. And I don't think it's about self-interest. I just think when you are truly content, you have a more giving spirit.

    This x1000. Could not have put it any better.

    idk about others but I grew up in a culture where men are the "provider". While I don't strictly believe in that gender role, the thought that I should do something nice for the people I adore is still there.

    And I don't necessarily think its only men who do it. Women constantly do nice things for us. Even my female friends (no sex or even thought about it. She is my best friends wife) would do things that're just nice. No reason needed for it. Just a way to show affection.

    Another thing is that for many folks, men and women alike, food is a huge display of affection. I guess its grinded into us from our ancestors. A typical male would bring in junk food or chocolates etc for you. Or cook you something decadent which is bound to be loaded with fatty, buttery goodness.

    Just my thoughts.

    Hmm.. I'm probably not the best to answer this, neither is my boyfriend.. We're both givers and like to keep each other happy, so my answer would be biased lol.

    Therefore, I will be reading this thread to see what others have to say, as I've wondered the same myself :)

    Agree with this completely, I was going to type out something similar but this says it.

    it's a 2 way street. when there is real, mutual love and respect, i think it's natural to want to see that person in your life happy. and to be the cause of that happiness is a wonderful feeling - male or female.

    They are storing up giggity points to use later.

    I don't spoil. If I'm taking a woman on a date, I pay. But I don't shower a woman with gifts or anything. If someone wants to be with me, it will be because she wants me. Not because I buy her a bunch of chit.

    Probably because it is their love language.

    My husband likes to spoil me because he loves me :love:

    Sometimes you just do really nice things for the one you love, just because :flowerforyou:

    my thoughts exactly.

    I've never been "spoiled" by a man. Pretty sure I wouldn't like it.
