Sometimes, the simplest most chivalrous notions of being cared for and romance have there appeal when faced with just getting through emotionally draining situations like we are right now.
I prefer men and boys who just get on with being a rock, caring for you, meeting your needs rather than the sort who'd spend ages deliberating over to asking if it's okay to care.
Heck IF you're in a relationship it just should be a given so be a man and just show your care.
Let romance be a warm gooey feeling.
Last week I talked about our emergency and this week it's been in the news so I'll talk a bit about it.
Sometimes it strikes me we've been going through a kind of update anxiety with this Coronavirus emergency like this week there was much speculation concerning what the four weekly review of the regulations would bring.
It's not that many of us wouldn't want an end to this thing - believe you me I do- but there does seem to be a rush across the world to lift all the regulations and it was said on Wednesday that ours would stay in place for the next three weeks or so.
It's worth reminding ourselves as to why we have them as that underscores when they can go.
Take shops and other recreational places for instance, the concern was as we all go in, mingling with others we'd spread the virus to ourselves and staff so only the most Essential shops and that were allowed to open such as food stores and chemists.
It may be possible to reopen a few but in order for that at happen social distancing -maintaining a two metre gaps between you and others - needs to be possible so layouts would need to change and maybe a restricted entry so stores would not be packed.
This might work for garden centres if they shut down cafes, places that serve food if the tables were wider apart with drinks being ordered at tables not by a bar for instance which potentially allows gastropubs to open for food.
Where this wouldn't work is barbers and hairdressers where people are closer and staff are very close to customers and pubs because we line up at bars next to each other being served face to face.
Transport was restricted because if we travel beyond our local areas, we do risk transmitting the virus in areas where it be less prevalent, places we visit encourage people to be very close to each other and public transportation with people sat next to each other in large numbers spreads it too.
Also bear in mind because of infection, there would be less drivers so journeys would need to be limited only to those who needed them like Key Workers and not tourists and sightseers.
That's one reason I personally feel it may take a while before that restriction is removed and testing measures are in place so we can better weed out those who have COVID-19 from those who might have a lesser infection, enabling more to return to work.
The two metre restriction may well stay a good while as it that of not being in the same space as people not in your household so gatherings of friends may well be off until Summer's End.
Large scale events are likely to remain restricted particularly if they are international in nature and that would apply to international travel until we have effective vaccines to minimize the risk of a second or third wave of infection.
That's why I wouldn't get your hopes up for a quick ending of all the restrictions because they're necessary for now.
Living through this Coronavirus (COVID-19) emergency is throwing up fresh questions and challenges, one being when is the earliest we can consider a alteration in the current locked down state which the Government is looking at as I type this from my room as we're still off school.
The other came very much into focus last weekend where a combination of it being both sunny and warm lead to situations where some parks and beauty spots were so full that the two metre distancing rule couldn't be met.
That meant they were closed or that people were ordered to disperse.
It had to be said this was mainly in the larger cities and that it was a huge issue in London where a good number of people do not have gardens and many be in tower blocks with little more than a small balcony.
This means that for those especially with children there isn't anywhere for them to have a runaround and exercise because communal facilities are so small you couldn't keep kids apart.
The other thing is that period of exercise is up to an hour and as one distraught London parent put it by the time I've walked to the park with my son arriving by the gate, we have to turn back to go home cos it's taken half an hour.
It's also the case some come early and claim spots for picnics which are discouraged as it leads to more people being sat right next to others.
I don't think not manning the parks, leavng unsatisfactory situations to develop to the point the local police have to step in really is the answer for places like London.
Children above all need fresh air and open spaces and as Margaret Hodge, a London MP said maybe we need to look at some sort of limiting to ensure most children do get a fair chance for say an hour at the park.
It may mean something liked timed ticketed entry with staff who might be volunteers to see to it people keep with in that as well as taking into account how long it takes to get to the nearest park before counting the hour of exercise.
The same people can deal with hogging spots and hours of picnicking which take away much needed space to play safely.
Simply threatening to shut down parks altogether as the Health Secretary appeared to suggest last Sunday doesn't seem to be an intelligent response to a very real concern.
Apart from watching Malory Towers, this week I've been experimenting with the new Sony (Minolta really) compact camera with an an example here of "against the light" photography braking most of the safe laws of photography to capture the backlit leaves.
Here are a few blooms taken from a tree that was fully out at the time while I was taking a unit of exercise staying within the limits, enjoying the sight and smell.
If they look a little sharper it's in part because the sensor resolution is just over twice as much as the Canon had, capturing more of it's wide ranging zoom lens.
