Would you notice if your spouse or SO suddenly had new piercings?
It's cracking me up - I returned from California last Wednesday sporting a new pair of CZ earrings in the two new holes I had put in my earlobes. Mr. DTBK has yet to notice them, or if he's noticed, he hasn't said anything. I know he looks at me - I can't believe he hasn't noticed! I'm sure he's seen me busily applying hydrogen peroxide!

1. MrG would not have noticed a second set of holes in my ears.
He rarely noticed the first.

2. When you really have to wonder how attentive they are...
is when you have hair down to your waist, cut it to shoulder length, and they don't notice for a month.

13. That DID take the cake. That's when my mom decided to divorce him.
Married the guy before my dad when she was still in college, fairly quickly realized it was a mistake. :P

12. And it's not like he doesn't notice jewelry
His brothers and nephew are jewelers in Pakistan, and I have a number of beautiful sets he's brought home for me.

6. Yes...and I'd wonder if I was suddenly in some alternate universe.
Because it would never happen to either one of us in THIS one. :-)

7. Uh, yeah, since the only ones she has are in her earlobes. I wouldn't mind if she
wanted to have a few others (don't EVEN ask), but yeah, I'd notice. I do look at her body with some frequency.

17. You're a newlywed, right?
I guess that's it - after 13 years the thrill is gone. NOOOOOOOO!!!

20. Eighteen years for us. And we still go at one another like a pair of
hormone-soaked teenagers.

(And no, I do NOT know what the "secret" to that might be. I think it's just chemistry of some sort.)

24. Maybe because I frequently mention the fact that I frequently have the hots for
Mrs R, and I do understand that most people don't sustain that kind of foolishness like we have, well into our mid-fifties.

14. Probably not
That girl has got so many I don't think I would notice another one. Unless it was in an unusual place.

18. My nose is pierced
And I had the standard earlobe piercings until I decided a couple of weeks ago to get them repierced.

16. If he got his ears pierced i would notice because he has really short hair.
if he had other places pierced i would notice. Now if i got another few ear piercings he would never notice, i don't he knows how many i have in each ear now.

19. Okay - maybe Mr. DTBK isn't that unusual, then
I really thought he'd notice.

25. Men ALWAYS notice these little things.
If he hasn't mentioned it, it is because he is mad at you or it looks bad.

27. Do you think this looks bad?
He's not mad at me. I only took a picture of one earlobe because I look like death warmed over right now and didn't want to scare everyone...

29. i have double-pierced ears but never wear earrings
so if i got another piercing in my ears (or even wore earrings), i think he would notice. if i got pierced anywhere else...i'm pretty sure he'd notice that, too

30. We'd notice...
I think Mr. DTBK is being intentionally 'oblivious', and just not saying anything.

I mean, how do you NOT notice CZ's, anyway?

31. Salt water is better than peroxide. Peroxide kills the new cells and slows healing.
And hell yes I'd notice. I have every inch of that man memorized. :evilgrin:
