Haha...yes I did smile Violet...its cute! I like the 25 relatives in 25 minutes shopping! Haha sooo cute... :)
The only problem that I have seen with that is most of them wait until the last minute to do the shopping, but that is what I find kind of adorable about men, to be honest I find many things adorable about them.

#4. If someone forgets to invite them, they can still be friends.

That is so true. Women could probably learn from this in not taking everything so personal. I often find that if you don't make a really great impression on someone (mostly female, but not always) when first meeting them, it sets the tune for the entire time you're involved. They tend to hold grudges, if you step on their toes. Oops, no deleting or rewinding in real life. There's like this silent punishment of avoidance. It doesn't go unnoticed but then that is the point.

So very sad in so many ways. :(

number 3 is just disgusting....wear the same clothing for 5 days straight?!
number 6 is insane......
I am glad that I am not a normal guy.... I would panic if I only spent 25 minutes to shop for relatives and waiting until the last minute would put me in a straightjacket.....I love watching the guys at the store the night before Christmas....:p

Agreed. BUT there is some solid logic to be sifted from that post image.

I find this when deleting text messages or phone calls. I feel so bad when I have to delete the messages because I feel as though I am hurting the other person's feelings, but I kind of have to. If I don't it will drain my battery faster so its a no win for anybody. Granted, I don't like being on the phone but I find ways to make it work. It does make it much easier to know that the other person is enjoyable to talk to.

LOL! LOL! If he was REALLY clever, he would've put jewelry IN it at the time of giving the box. Like a bracelet, pin, or a watch which are fairly noncommittal.

You're probably a normal guy but not a typical guy. I see how you think things through on posts with good if not pleasant reasoning. So my guess is that you're pretty much that way in RL (real life). That's an excellent normal, Brother.

I am not so sure about this one.....One guy was mad at me for not going to his house on his birthday......he didn't invite me and claimed he did......he figured out that he forgot to invite me...but still refuses to forgive me lol.....It is sad that we can't be friends, but apparently he is still mad at me for not even knowing about it.....

Exactly! Or giving a proclaimed Atheist a bible. Pages could very well end up lining the bottom of a bird cage. Probably not what we had in mind. :rolleyes:

it happened in highschool....maybe around 16 or 17
I think a lot of that has to do with immaturity. Most of the men I know are mature enough not to get annoyed with petty things like that and from what it sounds like you fit into that category of maturity.

Always exceptions for everything but that is often understood and rarely mentioned.

Somethings wrong there, if he can't forgive you for the error he made. :mad: A perfect example for expectations. My guess is there's a lot of pride going on. Probably best to know that upfront and not waste anymore time.

For me - Life is too short to try and win some people over after some ill will has gone on and they can't be reasoned with or if they won't even talk about things. Putting distance of time between people often brings them around when emotions have died down. True humility is hard to come by these days.
