As you leave the house, Edward Cullen would say, “Come back to me, love.”
As Maeve leaves the house, Robert would remind her to pick up some more cuffs-they broke the last pair.
As you come back to the house, a Normal Guy would be watching TV and not even notice.

As Maeve comes back to the house, Robert would drag her into their bedroom. Or possibly be asleep.

Ha! I enjoy these kinds of deconstructions because it shows that, hey, taste is subjective! What a radical notion! It's almost like "women" (quotes because...let's be honest, these things are aimed at Cosmo's/some dudebro's notion of those crazy womenfolk) are not a monolithic hivemind! What one person likes is not necessarily what another person finds attractive! News at 11!
And hey, maybe I prefer the person driving to have both hands on the wheel, list writer. DID YOU EVER THINK OF THAT OF COURSE NOT.
