Things Men Don't Understand

My husband just can't wrap his mind around that sometimes when I say "no", I really do mean no and I'm not just trying to play some sexual torture mind game with him.
When I ask him to do things for me, it is purely because I'm being lazy or I consider whatever "it" is to be a man's job. It's not because 'I can't do it' like he thinks.
It's his job to go downstairs when I hear something fishy because on the off chance there is something or someone down there, he has a better chance of survival. lol0 -
That the world doesn't stop for us when we get sick.
My boyfriend has had a minor cold all week and you would think that he just had surgery to have his spine and good sense removed.
Yes. You have a sore throat and don't feel well.
Yes. I will take care of you and feed you.
No, I will not pick up the remote and change the channel for you every 30 seconds because its 'just too heavy'.0 -
umm crying, i cannot understand random emotional outbursts
cannot understand the need to just hold the phone. say what you gotta say and get off the line
yes. and yes. and also our need for a constant flow of compliments.0 -
My husband does not understand why I felt the urge to buy a pink tool bag. Especially since I am not overly fond of pink. But, now when I need to know where tools are, I don't have to look. They are in my tool bag, which he wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole. :laugh:
He does not understand that I feel there is a right and wrong way to load the dishwasher, or why certain things have to be organized a very specific way- in fact, he thinks it's funny to move things and drive me nuts. :grumble: :bigsmile:
He also can't seem to figure out why saying "good morning boobies" and groping me is NOT the same thing as saying "good morning" or "I love you" And I can't figure out how to explain that to him. I asked him how he would feel if I ignored him and just groped his crotch instead... he seemed to think it would be a good idea. :bigsmile:0 -

I must be a guy or something...
It takes me 5 minutes to get ready to go somewhere (I was often ready before my ex). I don't wear makeup. I sleep with ONE pillow. I take 15 minute showers. I don't own a hair dryer. Oh, and I watch sports. Heh.
Edit: I also dislike both shopping and talking on the phone :laugh:
Maybe this is why I'm always just considered "one of the guys"?0 -

:laugh: My husband thinks boob grabs and a good morning poke is a great way to say "love ya & good morning" too.0 -
how to put dishes in the sink instead of next to the sink or hell in the dishwasher would be amazing
to empty the food off the plate into the garbage instead of on the counter for hours getting hard as heck to get off or the cats jump up to see /eat
if you put yur clothes in a random pile next to the laundry basket mixed with your work and other clean clothes im not going to know whats what and will not clean any of it.
that if its pouring rain / a blizzard / natural disaster outside i dont want to walk 30 min to the grocery store to get you cans of coke... drive me you lazy *kitten*0 -
how to properly grocery shop0

*Waves from the other side of the boat* So irritating when your trying to get stuff done, like cooking, I'm clearly cooking, don't grope the cook!! *Inserts angry face here*0 -

Or the passing *kitten* slap while you're doing the dishes, moving clothes from the washer to the dryer, bending over to pick up a toy, walking by his chair... lol0 -
My man -
He cannot come to terms with why I always need to use 2 towels when I shower. After my shower, I need one for my hair, and one to wrap around my body while I do my make up. Duh.
He also cannot come to terms with the spaceship like attachment at the end of my blow drier.
What else?
I just use one. Dry off then wrap my hair and do my make-up naked, I think my hubby likes that better lol.
My husband doesn't seem to understand the towels need to be folded a certain way or they just don't fit right in the linen closet!
fold in half the long way, fold in half again, then tri-fold it?0 -

Or saying out of the blue, in the middle of the day "are you going to ride me?" ummm yeah... when? Here? Now? LOL... waaaaah!0 -

Beats me...0 -
My man cannot understand that after he takes a shower, he needs to hang up the towel. :mad:
Not leave it on the floor,
or the bed,
or the arm of the couch,
hang. it. up.
PLEASE!!!! I try to get a few uses out of my towel, and I don't want to find a wet towel balled up somewhere...ESPECIALLY since we're both lazy when it comes to doing laundry.
I don't care if it's just "damp", it takes 2 seconds to do.
:explode:
I could come up with a WHOLE list, but I don't want to sound like a control freak. haha!0 -

Mine waits to get ready to go out until I am done. Although it takes him half the time to get ready now I have to wait. Or he will take a shower while I am doing my hair..... hello I dont need the extra humidity in the air.....0
-
Okay I'll go on.
-*kitten* slaps are ok at home most of the time. *kitten* slaps in PUBLIC are not ok. Just don't do it. Annoying :grumble:
-If I tell you I'm horny, make it happen now, I don't want to wait until football is over. The game is over? Hm, ate dinner, don't feel like it, too bad.
-If people are coming over, there is two things I need: to clean, and have snacks.
-If your parents are coming over, I need more than 5 hours in advance, 2 of the hours of which I need to NOT be at work still.
-I don't care if you don't care that I haven't showered in a few hours and you still want to give me oral, you can wait 5 minutes until I'm nice and fresh.
-I want you to WANT to do the dishes. (from the movie "The Break Up") Yeah, that whole scene, all the time.
^^ watch! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15hw8D9w4s8
Now I feel like a control freak...hahaha!

We'd be great friends!!!0 -
I don't think my husband has any question on the things I do, but I don't understand why it takes him the entire day to fold the laundry and by 9pm it's still sitting out in the living room. I also don't understand why he can't just wipe the crumbs off the counter after he is done eating. He drives me nuts! Since he has been deployed I would have to say I miss him, but I don't miss the mess!0

cant beat a drip dry0

is it so hard to finish one bottle of shampoo or conditioner before moving on to the next one?0

I don't understand why women don't clean up the hair in the shower.
Especially when you ask/tell the guys to clean their hair after shaving.
haha I was just about to post this......To me it is just as bad as leaving the toilet seat up after peeing....0 -

LOL This drives my husband insane about me... but I'm working on it!! I can't seem to stop doing it with mascara though, mascara addiction is a helpless case.0 -
Why did God give women ownership of the vagina!
I currently have one on lease. Apparently trying to own one leads to a rather large custodial sentence.
too funny!0 -
I don't think my husband understands that in spite of the fact we're married and share a bedroom - I still like to have the bedroom to myself to get ready when we're going out. I don't want an audience when I have to try on 4 different pair of pants.
Why in spite of the fact that he's not going anywhere... a shower, deodorant and a clean shirt are always appreciated.
Oh... and on the pillow thing... I share my queen sized bed with 6 pillows, 3 60 lb dogs, and a 6'3 250 lb man... I used the pillows to reserve my space... I mean heck, in my house a girl could get up to go pee and end up not having a place in the bed to come back to!0
