Is It True?!?!?


Yes, ladies, I hate to tell you but this one is kind of a question and answer forum today. Guys, please pay attention if anyone responds. LOL

Okay, normally I don’t talk about this kind of stuff, especially for the whole world to read, but I read an article today that has my mind a running. It was entitled,” 11 "Don't-Tell-the-Husband" Secrets All Women Keep.” So, after reading this article, I am kind of taken aback and would like to know the truth. Are these real truths or are they just a bunch of garbage that wasted about 15 minutes of my day.

The first thing I probably agree with, but they said that women lie about how much they actually spend on items by about 20 percent. Now, to be honest on this one, I don’t always tell my wife the truth either because I know she will flip if she knew some of the things I spent money on and how much. So, is this true?

Now, this is the one that I am a bit shy to mention, but they said that women think about sex as much as men if not more, but are usually too tired to do anything about it. Well, I am truly curious about this one, because it sure doesn’t seem that way. Sometimes I think women could go years without and not care. So, is this true?

The third thing was commitment and fear of it. The article claimed that women are just afraid of it as men. Well, I am not afraid of it. I joke with my wife all the time that I am committed and I have the white jacket to prove it.

The fourth was that women want us to be men. Now, this I would like to know the answer to. Because when I am assertive and try to be an alpha male, then I am wrong. So, is this the truth and if so, when is it the appropriate time?

The fifth talks about how the ex boyfriends were not as bad in bed as women make them out to be. Well, I am sure that is probably true. I know women try to protect our egos because if not, then we surely will not perform to the utmost standard. LOL

The sixth is that you are afraid of turning into your mothers. That I believe as well because I have heard this on several occasions and accounts. See, I would love to turn into my dad. So, I am not sure why you don’t want to, but hey, if I could I would be more like my dad.

The seventh is that you enjoy making us jealous. Hmmmmm. I surely believe this to be true. I think that it may not be subconscious, but I do believe that when you have the opportunity, you flaunt what you have and let us know it.

The eighth was that you fantasize about some of the male actors but don’t really want us to be like them. That I am not sure is true. So, tell me, if we were more like the actors, would that please you more. LOL

The ninth was that you tell your girlfriends more then we think. This I have no doubt. I often wonder what the glances mean when you ladies get together and talk. I am almost to the point of being afraid. LOL When my wife was doing her Creative Memories and had the parties, a household of women and just me. The whispers and glances were almost too much to bear. LOL

The tenth is that you do notice what we do, but still would like us to do more or different things. I believe this because no matter what I do around the house, there is always that one more thing that I didn’t do that she does notice. I could have the house spotless from top to bottom and she will mention the screen needs to be fixed. LOL

The last is that you do love us but miss the feeling of falling in love. Okay, I can honestly admit I understand this. When you are married, I think that you get into that pattern where you take each other for granted. I try not to, but I do know that there are days that I am not as thankful as I should be. Sorry. It isn’t on purpose, it is just we get used to our daily routines that we do forget what falling in love with you is all about.

So, ladies, I look forward to your comments. Gents, pay attention, this maybe a lesson that we all need to take. Best wishes.

LOL I read that article too!!
Seeing as it was catered for couples. I as a single lady will inject myself into it :)

1- I downplay the cost so I dont seem like im showing off (to anyone) I dont like to seem like I am bragging.

2- I think about it often *ahem* and will take a lot to say im too tired. (yes Im single and dont have as much on my plate as other women)

3- Yes, it affects everyone. I mean c'mon! lol Commitment is not gender specific. I cant commmit to either cheesecake or chocolate cake :)

4- For me I like men who can make me feel like a woman, no matter how independant I am, how many bills I take care of, how much money I make, the people I know. Those are all good things. They matter and please acknowledge those. But I want be with someone that makes me feel like a woman. because take those things away.. and I am but a woman.

5- Everyone is different. Some were good and some not so good. I want you to know that its you that I enjoy my sexcapades with now.

6- Lets not go here. I Love my mom, I just want to be different than she is :) We always want to be better(as great as she is at most things) I want to become more. Which I think if you ask our mothers they want the same.

7- I enjoy 'awareness' I dont like to make anyone jealous. Its an awareness that I go for. I dont do anything that crosses lines. I just flirt with it. If there is someone that is appreciative of me for my looks, brains, social skills... I want you to be aware.. that you are the one I am with, be Proud.

8- Hmmm no its a fantasy. If you were more like 'X' then I wouldnt enjoy him like I do... right?

9- Yes, I tell them all the things that will make them look at you twice :) Without revleaing too much about all the talents that you have.

10- I notice what I need to notice. Specially if its something that I had mentioned..and that seemed to have slipped your notice. So now, I just say it out right, I dont bother trying to play 'can you read my mind'. Yes doing something small and thoughtful gets you boys further.

11- For me its not the falling in love part.. its the new and exciting, the cant get enough of.. what is coming next..the.. possibility of..

Enjoy :)

i could answer your questions...but then i would have to kill you. duhh if you knew the truth to those there would be no more mystery.

truth be told, women are not that different from men, we want to be noticed, loved and appreciated. we lie about the same things you do and stretch the truth (or not) when neccesary. and tell our friends no more than you tell yours.

personally i do not want to be my mother, but you know i have reasons for feeling that way. nor do i like to make my hubs jealous. besides after 15 years ...whats the point? :) he knows i'm not going anywhere, and i know the same about him.

sex? i seem to remember that in my past. lol...really that's probably true. because sometimes mid afternoon i'll think "hmm that would be nice tonight" but tonight rolls around and i'm snoring. and lust and excitement CAN still be around. the way i look at it now is it's the quality, not the quantity ...and the quality improves with every year.

and i will be in love with my hubs forever. he bugs the crap outta me ALOT but i will always feel in love with him, i think to say people miss falling in love is crazy. you just need to find (or make) new reasons all the time.

as far as women wanting a manly man...sha whatever. just like men want a doe eyed woman who agrees with everything they say. take charge when neccesary and just be yourself the rest of the time. i mean she loves you for a reason...right?

LOL Ouch, okay, I get the point. Maybe I should just stay ignorant of the whole thing.
