i koped this from mr ho jin kit shaun's blog. edited it a bit la since i dont think they all speak my mind. but i suppose it says a lot about guys in general? i'm not sure since i'm no newspaper journalist doing a survey on the male population.
Rules that guys wished that girls knew. i shall now post them here.
1. if you think you're fat, you probably are. dont ask us. we refuse to answer.
2. learn to work the toilet seat. you're a big girl. if its up, put it down.
3. do not cut your hair. EVER. long hair is always more attractive than short hair. one of the big reasons guys fear getting married is that married women always cut their hair, and by then, you are stuck with her (i think some girls look good in short hair too though)
4. birthdays, valentines and anniversaries are not quests to see if we can find the perfect present yet again.
5. if you ask a question you dont want an answer to, except an answer you do not wanna hear.
6. sometimes, we are not thinking about you. live with it.
7. do not ask us what we are thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics like sex, sports and other girls
8. sunday = sports. its like the full moon or the changing of the tides. let it be.
9. shopping is not a sport, and no, we are never going to think of it that way.
10. when we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine. really.
11. you have enough clothes. you have too many shoes. (i dont really bother actually)
12. crying is blackmail.
13. your ex-boyfriend is an idiot.
14. ask for what you want. let us be clear on this one: subtle hints do not work.
strong hints do not work.
obvious hints do not work.
not saying it obviously doesnt work.
just say it!!
15. no, we do not know what day it is. we never will. mark anniversaries on a calendar. remind us frequently beforehand.
16. most guys would own three pairs of shoes, tops. what makes you think we'd be good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?
17. yes and no are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
18. come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it.
sympathy is what girlfriends are for.
19. foreign films are best left to foreigners (dont think so...)
20. check your oil, please.
21. anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument.
22. if you wont dress like the victoria's secret girls, dont expect us to act like soap opera guys.
23. if something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other.
24. let us ogle. we are gonna look anyway, its genetic.
25. dont rub the lamp if you dont want the genie to come out
26. you can either ask us to do something OR tell us how you want it done -- not both. if you already know how best to do it, dont bother asking us.
27. whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
28. chris columbus did not need directions, neither do we.
29. women wearing wonderbras and low-cut blouses lose their right to complain about having their boobs stared at. more women should wear wonderbras and low-cut blouses. we like staring at boobs.
30. the relationship is never going to be like it was the first two months we were going out. get over it. and quit whining to your girlfriends -- like their relationship is so much better.
31. all men see in only 16 colours, like a windows default setting. peach is a fruit. so is pumpkin. we dont know what mauve is.
32. if it itches, it will be scratched. we do that.
33. we are not mind readers and we never will be. our lack of mind reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.
34. if we ask what's wrong and you say 'nothing', we will act like nothing's wrong. we know you are lying. its just not worth bothering about.
35. what the hell is a doily!? (???)
some of the points are harsh haha, but that's how this world works. the reality IS cold and harsh. don't expect anyone to be a prince charming (or king or whatever). i'm no expert in this relationship kind of stuff (noob!) but one thing i've learned is that we should not expect too much. to me, expectations only results in disappointment. i know it sounds super negative but ya that's how i think.
与其担心那无法预测的未来，不如把握现在所拥有的一切，享受此刻所带来的欢乐。
我依然相信“船到桥头自然直”
