You know what really grinds my gears?

boyfriends...

1) how sometimes they can embarrass you so much when they think they are being funny (but it is normally stupidity and you then feel foolish because you choose to go out with him) and you get the "oh god love her look" from others!

[pintsofguinness]

what did he do

[ziggysego]

I thought theresagreen was your missus pints.

[mournerambler]

Not sure if this has already been mentioned but here goes anyway, when you stand in a queue in a shop & the people in front of you hand over there purchases to the cashier after queing themselves for a while, why then when the cashier tells them the price do they suddenly start going through there pockets looking for money as if its a big shock that they have to pay for the goods.
Do they not realise that the chances are that when you get to the till that you may be asked for money to pay for the goods or am I being a little harsh

Nah, I don't try to be funny.

If she had to start with "he stands there in a sulk..." I'd be worried!

It's probably been already mentioned by me, a dozen times.
Harsh? No, I believe they should be beat about the beat around the head.

you must be feeling real foolish alright.

[leenie]

why are you with him?

if he makes you feel foolish...?

[pintsofguinness]

I am sure he can be changed.

hmmm probably not.


why do women think they can change men?

[ziggysego]

I am sure he can be changed. He does have some great qualities. Very romantic and i get flowers at least once a week from him.

And there in lays the problem with women.

[theresagreen]

for use of a better word "altered"!

why is it a problem if women want the perfect man?

[pintsofguinness]

No one is perfect.

[ziggysego]

Well said Pints. First time I've agreed with you in a loooong time.

[theresagreen]

it is better to strive for Perfection than to settle for Pedestrian

Think of the poor male friend, who's shoulder your crying on!!!
