Post the annoying things you've noticed that only appear to be specific just to women.

I have a couple:

Every time the clocks go back or forward, the next day and the days that follow I get;

"What's the time"?

"It's 10 O'clock love", I reply.

"Yeah but what time is it really".


:rolleyes:


And parking. Why do woman have problems parking? Right in the middle of Tesco.. "Can you park it?" and she's jumped out before I re-open my eyes

Coming back for the 6th bump in 5 years - "The beeper on the parking sensor got too loud and put me off"
 
Don't get me started on parking. The GF seems to think parking 1 foot from the curb is acceptable. Luckily she's still learning! :D

The best one is:

Her: "Ricochet, I'm angry"

Me: "Why"

Her: "You should know"

Now I'm assuming all girls automatically say this and think boys can read minds because all my ex's said the same thing! :D
 
Mine wont tell me what's wrong, but her whole body language changes and I know something is wrong but I cannot get it out of her. Makes my blood boil.

Now get back in that kitchen *****! :D

This is normal, I've dated girls from 3 different countries/2 continents and they have all done the same.
 
Yup, we're crackers.

I do get surprised why the bloke doesn't know why I'm upset, but tbh if he knew he was upsetting me (i.e. if I'd let it show while whatever it is was happening) then he would've stopped there and then.

Miscommunication innit. We get thoughts lodged into our heads that can be really hard to shake.

I got upset that he wasn't reaching out for me, smiling or generally giving a toss about me at a gig Sat night. Turns out he was so engrossed that he wasn't noticing anything else, never mind me, and just wondered why I kept coming and going (I run away from the mosh pit when the rawk cranks up, I don't like being pushed around).

I wouldn't normally mind but it wasn't a band I knew, I was there to be with him and generally enjoy some new music but didn't feel like I got his company at all...
 
"what will happen if I touch this ?"

"Just don't please love, I know what I'm doing.."

*something turns off, catches fire, smokes and smells of burning plastic*

"sorry"

Meh its better than mine who thinks its parked once she has felt the car hit the curb. She wonders why I wont let her drive my car..........
 
The way we can be in a room full of people, and while im busy she will start chatting with other people and ill hear "aint that right sam" and i get told off because i wasnt being rude and listening to her conversations (And then if i do i get that look as "do you mind im talking" lol)

And the worst one, if something angers her or upsets her, instead of talking to me about it or letting me know, she blames me and storms off, and if i go to her i get "f off" and if i let her call off ill get a text "Dont worry about me then, ill just stay on my own year"

Gotta love women :D
 
Generally assuming I'm a mind reader. If you want something specific for your birthday, tell me what it is. I'll then happily trot down to the shops, purchase said item, get the nice lady behind the counter to wrap it and then produce it on the day in question along with a big bunch of flowers. Don't drop a subtle hint 11 months beforehand and then get annoyed (see Ricochet's post) and huffy about me not remembering. I'm a bloke, I don't do hints/gentle reminders/subtle suggestions, they just don't register :p

Whilst I'm on the subject, why does she turn her brain off and use mine whenever we are together?

Your girlfriend calling you Ricochet is what I picked up on there :p

It's the double/triple/quadriple meanings that can be picked up on in any comment that baffles me. No sentence is ever safe from being twisted!
 
the gf learned that doing the "what's wrong?" "nothing" line doesn't work a LONG time ago. i just carried on as normal and didn't get the least bit irritated by her when she went on a sulk and she soon got bored. then again now i get long and lengthy discussions about the problem which go around and around in circles, so it was a bit of a lose lose situation really - but at least i know what's actually going on!

Just last night was watching Scarface with the gf, she made me replay the bit at the very start of the film explaining why all the cubans had been sent to america, just so she could fully understand. 10 minutes later "So is this like some sort of refugee camp or something? Why are they there anyway?"
 
The WORST one is:

Me: Are you OK?
Her: *sigh*Yeah*sigh* (without making eye contact)
Me: Come on, what's up?
Her: *silence* *stares at TV*
Me: Well?
Her: *silence*
Me: Come on chubby chops, whats the beef?
Her: NOTHING IM FINE!

Not even an insult can get any kind of decent response. I HATE that. I just tell her shove it now, seems to get her talking at least.
 
like you guys are all soooooooooo perfect -

like you never leave your socks/pants/trousers etc. etc. lying around instead of putting them in the laundry basket?

like you never leave the loo/ bathroom so toxic that it takes industrial strength air freshener and six months to make it fit for human habitation again?

like you always remember your relatives' birthdays and never have to be reminded to send your mum/ dad/ brother a birthday card?

like you never drive too fast?

like you never wee all over the loo seat/floor and always remember to put the seat/lid back down?

like you never sulk?

i could go on, but you're all so perfect it would be a waste of time. :D
