MEN of ATOT

My wife has enough purses... why on earth would I want to buy her another one... she does just fine on her own.

 

[krunchykrome]

It seems like my wife buys a new purse every other month. She's probably got 15 coach bags.

shoe size? WTF is a sex toy preference doing on your list? Are you buying multiples of the same thing, why?

Well DUH...because they get worn out!! :roll:

Yeah...gotta have one for this pair of shoes, one for that pair of shoes, one especially for this outfit, one for that outfit, one for spring, another for summer, then for fall...and on and on and on...

I bought one purse for my wife and since it wasn't the right brand (Kate Spade), she didn't like it.

Though I've bought her a few dresses and she loved them.

I've also bought her boots with success.

Generally I know what she likes...and what she looks good in.

this exactly.

point her towards Zappos.com

seriously, don't fuck around with this.

This screams incompetence when it comes to women.

You should know your girl's:

Shoe size, and be able to pick out a pair of stylish shoes for any occasion she would like.

Dress size/measurements and be able to pick out something...

Favorite color

Taste in accessories

Sex toy preference

AND just in case SHE is completely incompetent with the finer things in life, you should be well enough versed in persuasion to get permission to dress her up as fashion dictates, i.e. Pretty Woman. Count the fucking tines, bitch!

You're not a man unless you can go to Victoria's secret and come out with something that will wow your girl while providing you with visual stimulation. Chicks dig guys who buy them sexy underwear.

Her tastes change quite regularly, just as fashion has seasons. WTF should I care about the changing fashion trends?

have you ever actually dated a woman, or should we add these comments to your growing pile of ignorance espoused on these forums through your posts?

 

[lokiju]

Jesus fuck I feel back for you guys in here.

I :heart: my wife even more after reading this crap.

She only has 2 purses (on every day and one dressy) and will only have that one until it wears out and then she'll buy anther one.

She typically spends no more than $50 in the process.

In barely more than a month, I'll have been married for 20 years. I *still* don't know how much cream and sugar to put in my wife's coffee. Shoe size??! Hell, I'm not even sure what size shoe *I* wear. My wife picks out all my shoes, clothes, etc. There's a perfect trade off. In all honesty, one person has to have superior fashion sense/decorating sense over the other person - it can't be a perfect tie. And, since I'm admittedly the inferior one, there's no way in hell I'm picking out clothes for her. She'll pick something out in the store and say "how's this?" "Looks fine to me." "<laugh> You're kidding right? This thing is hideous. I was only joking."

I hate looking around. This is when I consult other female friends, especially the ones who have too many handbags that they can fill a suitcase with just bags, and get a quick rundown of what's good for my girl.

Too much work for my mind.

YES AND I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW WOMEN EVALUATE HANDBAGS IT SEEMS TO BE A MAGICAL PROCESS

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

 

[JDub02]

i don't even attempt it.

I'm with you. Anything past jeans/t-shirt and I let my wife pick it out. She does the decorating, too. I'm just around to hang stuff on the walls.

Wow, I don't even know most of these things for myself. No way I'd ever expect my husband to know them. Except the bolded part. I'm all about the bolded part.

It's the perfect match - my wife picked out all the stuff for the kitchen - tiles, granite, paint, ceiling, cabinets, color of outlets, outlet plates, light fixtures, etc.; I installed it all.

My experience with this is to let the woman buy it, but you pay for it. This applies to most everything ele.

jewelry can be tricky. It's times like this when you need a smart female friend to go shopping with you.

Flowers as well, women go nuts if the flowers are sending the "Wrong" message. Who the heck cares that a yellow rose means death, or whatever the stupid flower guide says that women seem to all have memorized.

No.

Yellow is friendship. "YOU DON'T LOVE ME ANYMORE!!!!!!"

My wife and I picked out our cabinets and granite together. I'm rather pleased with how it turned out and we both love it!

Purses though? There's no friggin way I'd ever buy her a purse unless it was something I knew she wanted and I could go back and pick it up later.

Edit-She already has about 5 Louis Vuitton purses and a Gucci purse.

They cut it up at the checkout counter when paying for the bag.

 

[Muadib]

Get this, and you will be good to go for the rest of the year. They take paypal too!!!

 

[imported_Imp]

My mom can't even buy me clothes I like... I think you should leave this to her. A wad of cash or a $700 gift card.
