Except nurses I don’t think anyone is a big fan of taking care of a sick person. They say women are very nurturing but we can agree that not all men have that nurturing spirit. Being a caring boyfriend will definitely score you some brown points in your relationship.
1. DONT BECOME FRUSTRATED: This will only cause the both of you to fight. If you feel like you’re going to lose it, take some down time or try to have some fun together to let the steam out. Nothing will make her feel even worse than seeing your frustration while she herself is dealing with her sickness.
2. DROP THE PITY: Yes, you’ve been taking care of her and yes, you’re probably not getting the appreciation you deserve for all the ways you’ve put yourself out for your woman. But relationships require a couple of sacrifices along the way.
3. DONT COMPLAIN TO YOUR FRIENDS: Yes, taking care of a sick spouse can be frustrating, but complaining to your friends about your new caretaker role may just get back to your girlfriend. Odds are, in her sickened state, she isn’t going to appreciate your gossiping about her. If you’re tempted to complain, just remember: She hates being sick more than you hate taking care of her.
4. DON’T INSINUATE S£x: If she’s feeling violently ill, odds are, S£x and blowjobs are probably off the table for a while. After all, stuffy noses and queasy stomachs don’t make for good head-bobbing. Do her a favor and don’t push for any hand action either. If you have to have S£xual contact while you’re playing nanny, do your woman a favor and be the giver instead of the receiver. She’ll love all the efforts you’re making to make her feel better, in every way.
5. TRY MAKING IT FUN FOR HER: Catching a cold certainly isn’t a life sentence when it comes to living together. If you’re trapped under the same roof with a sick lover, then why not try to make it fun. Yes, you’re probably not having much S£x while she’s knocked down, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make the most of her down time. Use your imagination and head back to being 11. What was fun to do before there was the promise of S£x at the end of the day? Games! Try having a game night with your girlfriend. Grab all the snacks you can and bust out the old board-games. Play in bed to make this a sick-girl friendly experience. If games aren’t your style, try watching a movie that both of you will enjoy. Really, anything that will take her mind off her sorry situation would be considered a blessing!
