Re: Understanding Women
Hand on heart or Quran either way never flirt with any of my female friends. And all the girls on my private e-mail are real life friends. Some are married to friends, some are dating them, others are my friends. Never flirted with any one of them never will. That is just asking for soap opera drama.
Glad to hear that. I also talk to men and I dont tell my hubby but like you, they are old friends who all know I am married with kids and are usually in the same boat (i.e. married with kids). Both men and women are equally jealous when it comes to the opposite sex. And my reason for talking to men..yes..they do fulfill a part that hubby doesnt..conversation. I married the silent type who only wants to talk about Pakistan or cricket. I love cricket but currently cricket is not talkworthy and I really dont know enough about Pakistan. My male friends usually want a womens perspective on their situations.
As for dropping anybody at home, innocent again. I have had dinners with female friends one on one. I always pay. Standard for me. All innocent. Which usually gets me weird glances and looks from other people. But I am never going ask a lady to pay for something. Grabbing a coffee to discuss whats happening in life is normal as well. I know most of their personal lives and stuff. I know their parents half the time. Like the idea that you pay..now where did you say you live again?;)
P2 With all that extra plumbing and those leaks women should definitely come with manuals and preferably an off switch! And I don't trust anything that bleeds for 7 days and does not die. God Bless Southpark. Thats why women are called the 8th wonder of the world. You are always wondering..WTH??
Reading in the bathroom. It kills time. It is efficient. What else are you gonna do? The process is natural. As for lenght, if it needs to be done it can not hurried. Do it once do it right. One hour?? Reading I can understand..but the other stuff..whatcha taking..viagra?
Wet towel. Well its better than the floor. The chair will not do and frankly we know you will pick it up. I get grief from my mother about this all the time whenever I am home.
Children. Because you have the motherly instincts we don't. We will tell the kid to walk it off. You will kiss it and make it better. And frankly kids are more attached to their mothers. I think the male species deleted the term fatherly instincts from the dictionary so they wouldnt have to be called up on it! Kids are only attached to the parent that gives them the most attention. My brothers kids are more attached to him because even though he goes to work etc..he spends as much time as he can with them when he is home.
Farts. It is as long as you are 18. After that its only funny in movies. Thank God for that! But it still doesnt explain why men will be laying in front of the TV and then suddenly blow a loud one and just continue watching TV like nothing happened. Something did happen..and it was gross..do ya really have to do that in front of me???
News. Information is important. Analysis even more so. Every news channel has a different angle and a different set of views. A wide range of information with varying view points provide a solid basis for information and thus we can sound smart infront of other people. I have seen that in action..repeating the same news story over and over again to every friend that will listen. You may sound smart to your friends..but your woman will just think you dont have the brains to think for yourself!
Accountability. I believe you mean no accountability. You are the wife. Not the mother. Our mother can grab our ear and beat us senseless. She has the authority to do so. We don't give it - it is hers by the natural order of things.
You do not have that right. Questioning where we were or what we were doing leads to the following. We feel you think you have dominion over us. Not true. We have dominion over you. Secondly you are not our mother. That is usually why we don't sleep in the same bed as you after that accountability session. You freak us out.

I meant where a hubby thinks he can go and do anything he wants to without discussing with his wife. You dont have to ask permission or tell us every time you want to have a pee, but if your action effects us, we have a right to have an opinion on it. And you having dominion on us..LOL..thats the best way to lose a woman..try to be dominant..didnt your million news channels tell you about the article on a study that says that men who listen to their wives had the happy and content marriages?
