Why do men expect us to...............

[Green Devil]

I don't complain when I have to fix my girlfriends car, nor her computer.

I am obviously more skilled than her when it comes to fixing cars and computers, so I don't complain nor do I start arguing about.
I just fix it because she needs my help.

However...
When I am in the need of a sandwich, and asks her to do one for me - hell breaks loose.

I don't get it..
She is better than me at making sandwiches, so why can't she make me a sandwich (just once) without start arguing and debating that it is degrading to women and what not?

Maybe next time I'll just ignore her and her problems and let her solve them all by herself! =)

My wife does dishes when she comes home from her 3rd job at midnight.

Learned a long time ago I might as well get up and do it myself if I want it done right.

In the end

It will be women who save us from destroying ourselves

Please be patient until then

Sounds like your gf may have entitlement issues. Been there, had enough of that.

I've learned to be more discerning about letting most others know my skill sets.
It helps me avoid attracting problems in the forms of people that don't respect my boundaries.

It also allows me to focus more of my time & energy on things that are important to me.

I used to help nearly anyone asking for help which consistently caused imbalance in my life.

Having reassessed my needs and adjusted my own behavior accordingly, things are going much smoother.

So If u clean up a bit ,she will be happy. 2. they would love to come home, just like u to a nice meal, make it happen they b happy. 3. you gotta hit it hard 3 -4 times a week every 2nd day,will do, like watering a plant ....if u do this she will b happy.

Invitation for dinner. Your house.

I think he meant watch out agreeing or laughing. It might be interpreted by some of the sisterhood as you being a "turn-coat" and result in negative reps. That car and house burning thing was just emphasizing and humor.

It annoys me personally though when someone interprets my words using their own personal mind-set when my original intent had nothing at all to do with how they interpreted it. I also get offended by people who think by default they are smarter than everyone else and make a point every single time to make sure you know that about them. Then again, there are just jokes, and I DO enjoy a laugh.

That said, WOMEN GROWERS ROCK!..."Nevermind" said Gilda on SNL.

Doesnt that happen every single time we communicate? Everybody is subjective and the Internet especially doesnt transport intent very good...

No. Not always. But I do see your point. I think the problem in interpretation over the internet stems from such a wide audience and anyone who can push down a few buttons can also say anything about anything. I do think that bit where starting off a response with, "What I think you said was....", works usually IRL. But I wasn't meaning you specifically there, and I don't get that vibe from you anyway, and no offense intended, so good for you. I was more talking about posts where the author obviously spends a lot of time and goes over his post a number of times before sending it, in an attempt that his idea be better understood. Then when it's not, THAT is a little annoying, but it IS expected. Usually inevitable, but still a little annoying.

My saying that then was just because that thought has been rattling around in my melon and came out when I was typing trying to help her understand, my teacher roots coming out there.

But as with anybody making points, if you just combed your hair just a little different, no one could even see it. Please don't get pissed. That's my feeble attempt at humor.

 

[TLoft13]

Dude to tell the truth i cant be pissed because i dont understand your joke!
The rest of your post makes sense though.

You have a point, like a pointy head? Like a pinhead? But if you comb your hair over it the right way nobody could even see it? Bad joke, but I think I'm funnier than hell sometimes. I just kill myself.
