Ladies, have you ever had a person that you care about but he has this annoying habit that grinds your nerves?
Since you're an open and honest human being, you want to talk to him about it, but the one time you alluded to it before, he got all huffy about it. Now, you don't want to bring it up because you're thinking it'll turn into this whole, big thing. So, since he’s a great person, you just ignore it even though you really wish he'd stop doing it. Well, it just may be possible that you're doing something very similar to some of the men in your life. Too harsh? Okay, maybe not YOU, but your loud friend, you know -- the one that doesn't have a lot of tact? She may be doing some of these things and by reading this article, you may be able to help her with things like...

I get the toilet seat thing. For me its the lack of, and avoidance of, accountability.
As for the gaping, yawning unhappiness; the inability to want the things they already have . . .
The hole, I guess, is as figurative as it is literal. It used to bother me. Now I realize I need to find someone who believes that they are already complete and are looking for someone to celebrate that with. I’ll be surprised if I find her.
I don’t mind the venting either. I want to know. I also realize they don’t want me to fix it. In 25 years however I can’t remeber a day that started with, “Today was awesome . . .”
They are close! The Japanese, both genders, have had it with each other. Their men are tinkerers. The rest is a troubling response to an unfilled market need.
Her feet flew in the air,
her face turned crimson red,
She felt at once both cold and wet
and wished that she were dead...
The moral of my story is don't sit down abrupt,
always look behind you girls, the seat may still be up!
“Then go ahead and marry you best male friend. I’m sure that will work out well”
LOL!!!!!
Yep, as different as women are about certain things, I’ll take my dear beautiful wife over ANY of my guy friends!
Great pals and all - wouldn’t wanna live with em!
I must not be a chick. I don’t do any of them.
#3 might have been an issue, but our cats are toilet divers. Hubby was surprised once, and having the seat AND lid down hasn’t been a problem since....
Got a guffaw out of me!
Nope :)
Possibly. You are lucky. I love women. I see what they are capable of. Bitter disappointments. They have all the power and they wield it poorly.
“Am I the only one married to a woman that does stuff FOR me, instead of to me?”
Nope. My wife is not perfect... but she’s DARN NEAR perfect!!
Wouldn’t trade her for the universe.
My first wife, however... just like Kim Jun whatshisname, always looking to start a problem. Always.
LOL! I don’t care about both seats but the curved one that is lifted usually for men. That one needs to stay down!
My husband always wants to be the “good guy” and i think its ok if people don’t always like you. especially people who really do not matter to our scheme of things.
Otherwise he is perfect for me! and i try very hard to be a good wife/partner in all this mess we call life.
I never had a problem with th toilet seat lid.
As a kid we had a cat and a dog. The dog liked to drink out of the toilet and the cat used to drown its toys so I learned early in life to keep the lid down..
Wait just a minute.
Can’t we, as a equal society, demand that when a woman is done in the bathroom, she could leave the seat up!
I mean, aren’t we all equal?
The problem with most feminists is that they are breathing.
“I get the toilet seat thing. For me its the lack of, and avoidance of, accountability.”
I totally understand this sentiment. For me I had to shift because after having children my wife has less bladder control so I always try to leave it down. At work, in the men’s toilet, I always try and leave it up because some guys think their aim is as good as Dirty Harry.
There was a thread here a while back that had a very short, one line command to type in to keep everything on one page. Does anyone still have that?
I sent the info to a couple of friends. All of them said it took too much time to type in. Sheesh - 10 characters!
Guys are so negative!! ;-)
Yeah, but you know what? It’s the time at 2 in the morning when you are less than half awake and annoyed at your bladder for getting you up that you forget to look, or can’t see in the dark bathroom, and the seat is up and you sit on the disgusting, pee drip coated rim.
Even men use the toilet with the seat down for some things.
If it’s so easy to flip the lid down that women shouldn’t complain about having to do it, then why do men complain about having to do it as a courtesy for their wives (who use the bathroom far more than they do in the first place).
Does it ever occur to men that doing something they consider that small when your wife asks is just a little way to show her that you think she’s important enough to accommodate in that way.
Y’all tell us to tell you when we don’t like something instead of beating around the bush, and then when we do we get grief about it.
Make up your minds.
I had the pastor add “and laugh at all his jokes no matter how many times you hear them” to the “love, honor” line. She still said “I do.”
She’s under contract.....
