You're a guy, so I guess I should be asking YOU that question :)\n\nMy boyfriend used to be like that.  He always thought I'd be around and didn't really appreciate me.  One day I got sick of it and said something.  Usually it takes more than saying something one time for it to make a change, but he did.  Now he appreciates me all the time.  He does really cute little things.  For example, he bought me this silly St. Patrick's Day pin at work one day.  I thought it was so sweet!  I love little things like this.  When he has a day off and I have to work, he always cooks me dinner.  I'm really lucky...and I remember to APPRECIATE IT!
