My girlfriend is like strict on money.. She doesn't like all the lovey dovey crap.. She says she "doesn't want to waste my money." She only accepts the Teddy Bears and Flowers I give her on Valentine's Day, her birthday and Christmas..

It's a lie...all else equal, no girl doesn't like money being spent on her 🙂

You've got that right! You should have seen the look on my g/f's face after I had given her the card and the candy and the balloon, and then said "so I suppose you would like to see your real present?" ..and proceeded to whip out the $800 sapphire pendant. Her face lit up like a christmas tree...

No 'person' in the world doesn't like money being spent on them...do they? But, some don't 'expect' it, others do.

I remember that my mother was furious when my dad surprised her with a 1.5ct. solitaire diamond ring on their anniversary. One, because my mother likes small pieces of jewelry that compliment the person, not things that are meant to be the main attraction. Two, because they really couldn't afford it at the time and my mother is very frugal about luxuries and frivolities. Three, because they had it appraised and it was worth about 1/4 of what my father paid for it. My father, who isn't well educated, got taken to the cleaners on this ring by the salesman. He took the letter of appraisal back and tried to raise hell with the salesman and the manager, but they both laughed at him and basically said "Sorry bout your tough luck, pal."

My father is the type who is very rational and calm...until you push him too far and then he's likely to do just about anything. He got even with the salesman and the store manager to his satisfaction, and that's all I'm going to say about that. 😉

I know! If the dumb wench wanted something, she should have said so. That's the age-old "no means yes" highly disfunctional communication abilities of women. >>



The hell is wrong with you, its US who cannot communicate!!!!
 


<< If my GF said 'nothing' & I got her something anyway, she'd b*tch at me for spending the money..... -kd5- >>


On the outside perhaps...but on the inside, she'd be thinking about giving you *lots* of oral seggzin'
 


<< The hell is wrong with you, its US who cannot communicate!!!! >>

By "us" I presume you mean men? lol! You've been suckered by the feminist movement or pop relationship 'experts' like that fraud John Gray, into believing that women are by some mysterious force 'born' the 'better' communicators. Not so.

Men are generally (there are exceptions) more direct, unpresumptuous, and logical communicators. Generally (again, there are exceptions), men want a relationship where there are no 'mysteries' to figure out, where they aren't constantly expected to 'guess' a woman's thoughts or feelings, where they aren't expected to decipher some 'cryptic' emotional code. Women on the other hand, typically prefer a relationship where you are "expected" to know the answer to many questions. They don't want you to ask, they believe you shouldn't have to ask, men should just "know".

The "no means yes" premise of this girl's response is a PERFECT example of that. John Gray advocates the very same thing; when a woman is upset and her man asks if there is something wrong, and the woman responds 'no', John Gray says that actually means 'yes', while 'go away' or 'leave me alone' actually means 'hold me', and all that crap.

This is a SEVERELY disfunctional way of communicating and instead of taking women to task for this, psuedo-experts like John Gray actually place the onus on MEN to 'decipher' this female code, and if they don't, the failing is the man's. That is absurd both on its face and in principle.

Giddy 15 year-old high schoolers play games like that, not adults. Adults communicated directly and don't try to send 'cryptic' messages to each other, then get all upset because someone didn't figure out their cryptic system.

If I come home and my GF seems down in the dumps, and I ask "Is there something wrong?" and she says "no", by God she better mean 'no' because I'm going to take her word for it. If she was lying, then she bears all responsibility for her communication failure, I refuse to.

haha, yea my thoughts exactly. *makes meowing noise + whipping sound*

but i thought he might have been facetious... i didn't think he was *serious* :Q

Damn right! 😀

Bleck...So .·. Girls are opposite-talking stupid-heads sometimes...

So by John Gray's logic, when my girlfriend says "I wanna cuddle!" does that mean that I should say "You're the boss," leave the room, and play video games? 🙂

Right on!! 😀

Aye, there's the rub. Women get to have their cake and eat it to, you're supposed to 'know' which is when and what they mean by which ever circumstances are involved at any given time. As I said, its extremely disfunctional. John Gray has undoubtedly done more damage to relationships than good with his feminist crap. I'm willing to bet he's a queer anyway...
