“She’s quite unlike any I’ve ever met before.”
What’s wrong with you dude? Isn’t your ManDar working? It’s a TRAP!!!!! Run!!!! :)
Sounds pretty darned sweet though.
Isn't the short black gal the same one from The View?
:-)
Pay attention to your wife/girlfriends emotional needs. They are as real to her as your physical needs are to you. You ignore them/belittle them at your peril.
...zackly.
Here’s what I found in my 30+ years marriage to the same man: When we are “physically” close, he is more attentive to my emotional needs and when we are “emotionally” close, I am more in tune with his physical needs. It’s a vicious cycle.
A father and son are out fishing one day and the son posed this question to his dad: "Dad, is it true in some cultures a man doesn't know his wife until after the wedding?"
The father replied: "That's true in all cultures, son..."
Hehehe...that's all fine and dandy, but what if you have a woman who doesn't want to follow?
Exactly....and the cycle is self-perpetuating in EITHER DIRECTION. When a man ignores her emotional needs, she is likely to ignore his physical needs.
Pay attention Bear. You might just learn something.
Or, what do you do if the roles are reversed and your husband picks and picks at you like a zit until you can’t take it any more?
Btw, I'm sorry you couldn't sleep, but glad you decided to write this piece and post the thread! I laughed out loud, but there's a lot of truth there, and that's what makes it so good.
Gonna share it with my husband and best-friend when he gets home. :-)
Let go with love and find another.
Big butt ping!
However, I'm thinking of writing a follow-up for men.
Ha! Good luck with that one.
7. Iron my shirt???
Four over-rated women sit around drinking lattes discussing their unexamined feelings about important issues.
It's good for a laugh, if you can numb your mind from remembering that most people feel as they do and that is why the US is in its sad State.
Wow, now that I read that list I realized (again) how blessed I am!!! Bearslayer sounds grouchy this morning LOL
After 15 years together, hubby and I don’t pick at each other, I value hubby’s advice more than any girlfriend’s, neither one of us says “that’s now how my mom/dad did things”, and hubby actually thinks I don’t talk enough!!!
Hubby says this to others (& I say something similar): “I have a wonderful wife. If she ever leaves me, I’ll have to go with her.” LOL
I'd never understood the concept of a nagging woman getting on your nerves until my current girlfriend: it's not so much that she nags but that she just won't shut the hell up about how she feels. Everything....and I mean everything....has has to be run through this bizarre emotional prism she has inside and she has to sit and talk through every single color it casts on the wall.
Usually I'll listen to an hour or two of it.....and I do mean hour or two a day....and end up saying "Look, you need to stop talking because I can't handle it any more." Which, of course, starts the crying.
The crying. Oh my God, the crying and histrionics. I don't consider myself such a catch that I can afford to caste off women like yesterday's socks but, this girl's going to the curb.
Ladies, take your comments “men are hard to understand” and “all you want is ___” and do the math.
that should be rule #1
Do that, and he'll move Heaven and Earth to serve you.
