I'm feeling bold today. Don't hate me. 
I'm 21 years old, and throughout many of my years, I've witnessed various relationships between men and women. It seems that in *every* relationship I've watched, a few things show themselves.
First, the men are whipped. Badly.
Him: "Let's go meet Bob from work at the pool hall"
Her: "No"
*later*
Her: "Let's go meet my sister at her house"
Him: "I don't really want to..."
Her: "You don't ever want to do anything I want to do, you don't love me anymore, why don't you....."
And so on for a good four hours before the guy gives a generic appology, seemingly not sure of what he did wrong.
Second, the women demand unlimited bitching access to the guy.
Her, just getting home from work: "You've been on that computer for at *least* an hour, come talk to me"
Him: "Ok"
Her: "My day was just so hard, first I was drinking coffee and putting on my makeup, when some asshole started flashing his blue lights at me..."
And so on, about how the world owes her something, life isn't fair, people aren't nice anymore, no one at work knows how to do anything, etc
Third, the women spend money like it's going out of style.
Her: "Oh, I got a present for Bobby, that's our neighbor's godson. He got an A on his report card, I also saw these cute marble figurines for $140 each..."
And so on.
Him: "We need a new CD-ROM Drive"
Her: "Why do you *always* have to spend money? Can't we go anywhere without you buying anything?"
Fourth, the women hate computers, golf, poker, and TV.
Her: "Why are you always playing videogames/golf/poker/ watching sports/news/etc? You should spend time with me and my friends and family"
Fifth, the guy can never go anywhere.
Him: "I'm going to play GTA3 at Jake's house"
Her: "You allllways want to go out with Jake. Are you having an affair? I'm moving back in with my mother. I should have been a lesbian"
So I ask you, Anandtech, am I correct or just jaded? Have I seen the light in time to avoid a bad situation, or have I only seen the bad relationships?
