'Tis a women thing really..

[Bennie-Mac]

I've never understood this "seat down" malarky? Why does it alllllways have to be down?! Can't it just stay up some of the time to make it easier for guys?

mavity is on the girls side too! We have the extra effort of lifting, plus having to bend down to reach it. And lets face it, if you are stupid enough to not notice the seat is down and you "fall in" then you deserve it!

like you never drive too fast?

The powers that be are yet to grace me with a car which I can drive too fast. Just because you think its too fast doesnt make you any more right than I am .

But on topic the whole mind reading thing is soooo annoying to me. Thankfully mf gf has chilled out and learned to communicate so this is now quite rare.

Haha I get the whole 'nothing's wrong' thing all the time, then after a few weeks I get slaughtered because I still don't know, even though I've been asking for weeks with no answer, yet it escalates and I don't know how I'm supposed to know what the problem is, but it's terrible that I don't know.

Also yesterday was full of 'so what time was it really?' and several other questions relating to the the clocks going forward, each one becoming more confusing ..

My wife never, ever knows where her keys are. Or anything else for that matter.

I always get a huge eye-roll from the bf when rummaging for something (usually keys) in my handbag.

They're always there, somewhere. But there're so many other 'useful' things in there too it just takes a little while to find them...

 

[eXor]

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?

Never.

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?

Nope. I don't read in there, either. In and out as quickly as possible.

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

Always remember. Mom's birthday is on Wednesday, Dad's is a week later. No, I didn't look it up.

like you never drive too fast?

No comment.

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

Eww on the first, your man sounds very charming. I have to put the seat up when I go in. Why, why, why must the man perform two actions?!! You wanted equality... One action per person.

like you never sulk?

Guilty.

Hehe. "Useful" things.

My wife has one of those ab crunch things in our attic which she will not let me throw out even though we need the space. I've known her for 7 1/2 years and it's been with us through 3 house moves and I've never seen it used.

 

[NiCkNaMe]

I don't really get any of these problems with my girlfriend... she's pretty too the point so I get to bypass all these stupid problems If she's got a problem with me, she lets me know.

The only one that springs to mind is;

Her:- Lets go out

Me:- Cool... Where dya fancy?

Her:- .. I don't know, you decide!?

Me:- Oh Yeah. I forgot I was the local expert in places to go, see and do that's why I work in a tourist kiosk on the weekends

Id just like to point out that when i was looking for something in my gfs handbag the other day, i had to tip the contents out to locate said item. Among the make up was 23 metal Spiderman pin badges at least a million cinema ticket stubs and a rather large shiny pebble.

Handbags are just an excuse to hoarde crap when you arent at home

 

[rsatd]

Its not exactly challenging to put the seat up or down really... I leave it down all the time after the jobs's done. There is a lid, well on my one there so it makes sense to use the lid as well, the lid.

like you guys are all soooooooooo perfect -

Not Guilty. Had that beaten out of me over the years. Not worth the aggro I get. I refuse to hang washing up now though, everytime I do it's not hung in the right way.

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?

Guilty as charged. Then again so is my missus.

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

Guilty again. Who needs a calendar when I have Mrs Gog. I only need to remember her birthday She also finds things for me (generally because she's moved them though).

like you never drive too fast?

I don't drive Have Mrs Gog as a chauffer When she can find her keys that is...

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

Something I never understood. If you want it down and its up, put it down. If I want it up and its down, I put it up. Simple really.
I do admit that aim can be off sometimes, but that's generally because I'm wee-ing in time to a tune.

like you never sulk?

Rarely. And if I do, I can guarantee you would know why and wouldn't have to rely on mind-reading.

Good point well made, I manage to keep everything useful in my pockets, that consists of wallet, phone, keys and sometimes sunglasses. How you call anything extra (other than certain sanitary items) useful is beyond me.

If you are being chaised(sp?) in a dark alley, you can always empty your handbag on the...er chaiser(sp?). Well that is the only reason I can think of for it .

Funny how ive never had a woman maon when the lid is down too, even tho they have to do the exact same thing by lifting it up. Im so confused

 

[A.N.Other]

My wife does that. Always when I'm in the shower, or next to a noisy microwave, or with the kettle boiling, or the washing machine going full tilt. Then gets cross when I can't hear her...

That's the one that gets me! It's when she's talking to me at a normal volume (that I can hear fine) and then turns around and walks into another room but still talking at the same volume. Surprisingly, I can't hear a word ...

 

[SlyReaper]

like you guys are all soooooooooo perfect -

I don't own a laundry basket. I leave them under the bed until laundry day, so at least they're out of sight.

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?

Can't really help that one.

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

None of my relatives care that I forget their birthdays.

like you never drive too fast?

I don't own a car. The car I'm buying next month goes from 0 to 60 in 3.6 years.

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

I sit down to pee (because I know my aim is terrible). Doesn't apply.

like you never sulk?

I haven't sulked since I turned 10.

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

 

[Knubje]

I always get asked things like:

- Where are my hairbands? (because I use them all the ****ing time don't I?!)
- Have you seen my hairbrush (See above)
- Where is the remote? (Because I get a say in what's on the TV often yeah?)
- Have you seen my X,y,z item of female orientation?

The annoying thing is, she never actually looks for the item(s) before asking me first. Assuming I have some sort of photographic memory/encyclopedic knowledge of where she dumps all her carp!

Then I often turn around, give her the "How the hell should I know?!?" approach to the situation, only to see the remote sat under her arm or by her leg!!!!

Other than that, she does pretty well

Get all that atleast on a weekly basis, lol

 

[semi-pro waster]

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?"

Just watching a film with almost any girl seems to mean they must ask me exactly what is going on - I wouldn't mind quite so much except that they do it even when it is the first time I've watched the film too so I've got precisely no more information about it than they do (there are a couple of girls who are notable exceptions to that rule but mainly because I've pointed out that they either watch and pay attention or I can turn it off and we'll do something else).

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

I can remember three birthdays apart from my own, if anyone else wants their birthday noted then they can tell me a suitable period in advance or on the day and I'll buy them a drink.
