I am the one, the first, the Original Blog-Surfer. I roam around Blogdom and leave comments on whatever Blogs I want. If I happen to comment on your Blog, don't get bent out of shape...be honored.

Quiet until I know you. Polite even if I don't like you. Cynical all the time. HATE gossip with a passion. Firmly believe that there are always two sides of a story and anyone who makes a decision based solely on one side is acting like a fool. I love to read, so if you have read a good book, let me know.

Men's Rules (that women should know)

Ok this is just generalizing...not all guys are like this. But so many are so true...


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Women, 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.

Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not considered by us to be opportunities to see if we can find the perfect present ... again!

Sometimes we are not thinking about you. Live with it.

If you ask us what we are thinking, and we say nothing...it is probably true.

Sunday = sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.

Don't 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're stuck with her.

Ask for what you want. Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!

We don't remember dates...Period!!

Most guys own three pairs of shoes - tops. What makes you think we'd be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?

Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.

Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.

If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.

If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us. We've been tricked before!!

If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.

Let us ogle. We are going to look anyway; it's genetic.

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.

Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.

Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and neither do we.

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.

ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.

If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

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.

If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.

Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as navel lint, the shotgun formation, or monster trucks.

Foreign films are best left to foreigners. (Unless it's Bruce Lee or some war flick where it doesn't really matter what they're saying anyway.)

BEER is as exciting for us as handbags are for you.

Thank you for reading this; Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight, but did you know, it's like camping.

My boyfriend, has over 3 pairs of shoes. I only have 3 pairs, he has about 7.. And beer is not only exciting for men, and what the hell is exciting about handbags????
I know you said that not all guys are like this. But I can resemblance with many guys I know.. So you must be right! A girl/woman should do the same (of course from our point of view..)

You know what the sad thing is? That we can read this over and over again because you see the same post in different e-mails...but we never seem to remember.
My husband will ask "what's wrong" and I say nothing when surely it's something then I get mad because he didn't ask. He is not into sports though. More like architecture, cars, guns, knives...collectibles, etc.
Even though we know you guys must be guys, be gentlemen from time to time and trust me, I'll be worth it. Women respond to a romantic man.

Thanks Kirsti... you would make a great husband! I couldn't live in England for a few years though... I would need to hear American English.
Dary...you are right, men should be romantic at times... Not all men are all of these, it is a pretty cynical look of guys.
Schattig Duiveltje...You should come up with a "girls rules". I know that there is one out there, but since I am a guy...I am not interested in looking for it...

Romance smomance...
A guy who tries to be romantic all the time is not a real man.
I agree that there should be romance but there are also times when a man needs to be a man and that aint romantic!
