If I remember correctly, it was probably only 2-3 days before she sent "the email" for me to read. This is what she wrote:
"John, you've been doing such a great job at home. You've been keeping the entire condo very clean each week, hand washing my gym underwear and gym shorts, and doing all of the cooking. Since you stopped working, however, I do think you need a few more things on your task list.
I want more personal attention. I want you to learn and practice the following two things for now:
1) shaving my entire body once a week. But not only shaving, I want you to learn also how to use wax so I can just get Brazilians right at home. This will take awhile, so I want you to practice shaving on yourself. Starting this week I want you to begin shaving your entire body: your legs, your chest, all around your ass and genitals. I like smooth boy anyway, and I've been meaning for you to do this. But more importantly, once you've practiced on yourself for a month or so you can begin with me once a week.
2) I want you to learn how to give manicures and pedicures, including nail panting. I have ordered all the tools you need and they be arriving in a few days. Again, I want you to practice on yourself. I bought nail polish that is easily removable so don't be frightened.
I've provided resources below for you to study and learn. These are tutorials and articles and other videos that I think will help get you started.
That is all. I love you and will see you later tonight.
Love,
Rebecca"
Well, that was a lot. I sat reading the email for at least an hour, over and over again. I didn't mind the shaving part because I didn't like being hairy anyway and I knew she hated it, too. Still, kind of a big change. What guy shaves his whole body? Well, it's just practice so it'll only be for a month probably.
I had more of an issue with the pedicures. I had zero idea how to do them.
I didn't feel good about any of this, and when Rebecca got home I expressed my concerns as I was starting to do the laundry. I was done with the regular load but now was starting on handwashing her gym clothes as we talked.
"John, I know it's weird but pedicures are expensive to get all the time, and I also think it would be a very intimate connection we'd have together. I wouldn't tell anyone."
