Who Could Resist: “To My Wife”
If you’re ever feeling like romance is dead, take a minute and indulge yourself in To My Wife. Girls, this may be your new guilty pleasure.
Similar to 1001 Rules for My Unborn Son (and who didn’t love that one??), Jannuzzi offers up charmingly sincere tidbits to his as-of-yet unmet future wife about what his end of the bargain will be and how he imagines small details of their relationship, including just enough things he can’t or won’t do to keep it from feeling overly sentimental or idealized.
Glamour UK interviewed Jannuzzi, offering more insight into who this guy is…
GLAMOUR.COM: How did you come up with the idea for To My Wife? Have you been keeping the list private before now?
John Jannuzzi: I saw a commercial for a jewellery store on television, a jewellery store I don’t particularly enjoy and wouldn’t want to buy my engagement ring at. So I just sort of thought to myself, “my wife should know I won’t be going there” and the idea really came out of that. So for a month I was thinking and gathering notes and I just publicised it this week. It’s not like I keep a leather notebook in my sock drawer with rhinestones and bows on it or anything, but I (and I think many other people) think about the future often. For me, I hope my future includes marriage and a family and all that stuff.
