Fawriel: Venus and Mars →
A while ago, my mother asked me to get on her computer and help a guy I didn’t know deal with a clingy girl on Facebook. I did the best I could, trying with what little information I had to get a rough psychological profile of the woman so I could know what causes her obsessive behavior and come…
Interesting. I’ve had a similar discussion just a week ago with two girls who kept insisting that there’s some things about girls that guys just can’t understand. The main focus was on the whole “girls like bad guys” problem and that this apparently was true for all girls because “being told what to do” and “being lead by the guy” is easier and also more pleasurable for girls apparently?
And I was all like “What the fuck, don’ you realize this just makes you weak individuals that follow guys’ every whim?”
And then the discussion went on to how, if a guy breaks up with a girl, the girl can’t see how her ex could possibly have done anything wrong in the relationship and goes to blame everything on herself. I tried to tell them what a bunch of bullshit that was by providing the example of a 18 y.o. girl I know who’s been in 5 relationships so far and hadn’t emotionally suffered after the first breakup at all.
Then they went ahead and claimed that “girls always blame the guy on the outside (when talking to others), but inside, they blame themselves”, and I responded that this girl I know is my longest childhood friend and she has always been honest to me about these things, which apparently they just ignored-
BASICALLY
Those two girls honestly seemed to believe that there’s some sort of common ground between all girls concerning relationships, especially on the two topics I’ve mentioned up there. And yes, OF COURSE they went ahead and claimed that I couldn’t understand it since I’m a guy.
And no, this wasn’t really supposed to go anywhere, I just wanted to share my story because you reminded me of it and I’ve been wanting to post this on tumblr for a while now.
