I Love Him But....
----
Whenever he really wants something, he looks at me with his puppy dog
eyes. I give in whenever I don't leave the room... I usually don't.
Shinobu - Land Reclamation Area, Tokyo
----
He has no sex drive. I've laid out on the bed completely naked in a
sensuous pose and he asked me to move over.
Nodoka - Nerima, Tokyo
----
He can never state what he wants. If he wants me to attend a social
function, it's a long discussion about the need for his queen to be
there with him. If he's going on about the weight of his crown and how
some quiet time would soothe his nerves, he wants me to take him to
visit my family. If he starts talking about how his kingdom needs an
heir, he wants to have sex.
Hitomi - Kamakura / Farnelia
----
He turns the heads of more guys than I do.
Ukyou - Kansai
----
He won't tell me anything. He's even disappeared for a few days and
returns without letting anyone know what happened beyond that he 'won a
fight.' I found out months later he had fought a horse kami, and that
was when the kami had come back for revenge.
Akane - Nerima, Tokyo
----
He's too insecure and cautions. It was almost a year after we had our
daughter that we finally had sex again because he was afraid I wasn't
ready.
Kyoko - Tokyo
----
For an older man, he acts so immature sometimes.
Kasumi - Nerima, Tokyo
********************
I Love Her But....
----
She never has any perverted thoughts. Whenever she thinks about anything
related to sex, I'm the one who had thought of it.
Ranma - Nerima, Tokyo
----
Her family makes it really hard for us to be together. I can deal with
her younger sister, even if she is a bit violent and angry at times.
However, her older sister is a nymphomaniac that is constantly trying to
bed me. Can't forget that whenever they or any of her other relatives
show up at my house, they come literally out of no where without any
warning. They've even appeared in the bathing room while I was taking a
bath. I won't even go into anything about her Father. He scares me.
Keichi - Tokyo
----
She can spend over a hundred thousand yen to dine with her clients, but
I would need to explain spending even a mere thousand yen on my own
meager meal. She even hired her own sister to be our housekeeper since
she would not abide to spend the 'excessive' price that she would have
to pay any other honest worker. The only reason we even have her
sister's flawless help is that my wife might detonate if she did even
the simplest household chore.
Tatewaki - Nerima, Tokyo
----
For a princess, she is the most inelegant, clumsy and gullible person I
know. If it wasn't for her luck, she would've been killed by a monster a
long time ago.
Mamuro - Minato, Tokyo
------
Author's notes:
This was a fun thing I've been working every once in a while ever since
I read 'I Love Her But....' Unfortunately I don't own the book, and the
guy who does moved away so I can't give the proper credit for the book.
If you want to make a submission, please do. However, I ask you don't
send short and obvious ones like, 'She zaps me too often, Ataru.' It
should be entertaining and preferably focused on one of the character's
less pronounced traits that is shown to annoy their love. Also, try to
make it entertaining so that if someone doesn't know the series--
they'll still laugh at the joke.
I will accept submissions that might replace the above entries. Mamuro's
comment on Usagi is an example of what I don't want submitted, but I
don't know the series enough to make a better example.
Ranma is a good example of what I want. I honestly feel that Ranma
doesn't care if Akane is violent and there are ways to deal with her
cooking and she's learning (too damned slowly). So, that would not be
his biggest complaint. However, her perverted thoughts are not something
he has shown any sign of getting used to, and can remain a problem for
him.
If you have to know which series these come from:
Shinobu - Patlabor
Nodoka - Ranma 1/2
Hitomi - Vision of Escaflowne
Ukyou - Ranma 1/2
Akane - Ranma 1/2
Kyoko - Maison Ikkoku
Kasumi - Ranma 1/2
Ranma - Ranma 1/2
Keichi - Oh My Goddess!
Tatewaki - Ranma 1/2
Mamuro - Sailor Moon (Juuban district is part of Minato ward)
