At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down. Finally the guys side of the story. (I must admit it's pretty good).Here are the rules from the males point of view.
Please note these are all numbered "1" on pupose.
1. Men ARE NOT mind readers.
1. Learn to work the toilet seat. you're a big girl. If it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down, you
don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
1. Sunday sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.
1. Shopping is not a sport. And no,we are never going to think of it that way.
1. Crying is blackmail.
1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do no work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious
hints do not work! Just say it!
1. Yes and no are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. Thays what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends
are for.
1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.
1. Anything we said in an argument 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null
and void after 7 days.
1. If you wont dress like the victorian secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.
1. If you think you're fat, you probably are, don't ask us.
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other
one.
1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to
do it, just do it yourself.
1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
1. ALL men see only 16 colours, like windows default settings. Peach, for example is a fruit, not a colour. Pumpkin
is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing", we will act like nothings wrong. We know you are lying, but it is
just not worth the hassle.
1. If you ask a question you don't want to hear the answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine...really.
1. Don't ask us what we are thinking unless you are prepared to discuss topics such as baseball, the shotgun
formation, or golf.
1. You have enough clothes.
1. You have to many shoes.
1. I am in shape, round is a shape.
1. Yes i know i'll probably have to sleep on the couch tonight; but you know men really don't mind that? It's like
camping.
