no no no, itll just promote this behavior in the future. ive seen it too many times with my buddies.

In my experience, this behavior can neither be promoted nor prevented in females. It is genetic. Trying to argue it away with logic will only cause a large scale fight that could damage the relationship. Best course is just to blow it off.
What probably happened is that she had a bad day at work. As females believe that all things are tied into each other (and that all bad things can be prevented, which is why they tend to be such suckers with mechanics), she probably blames it on the fact that waking up alone put her in a bad mood, which is what caused her bad day.

i have to agree with that, some are just predisposed to find flaw. its not his fault tho, and he shouldnt apologize for anything. the best way ive found to deal with it, is tell her shes not being rational/fair, and refuse to argue. after a while, theyll think before they start in on you, and realize they are being irrational, or it just wont do any good to fight about it, and then they give up.

I know you're probably pissed about it yourself....but don't stew over too much either. Seriously, just shrug it off...otherwise you might bring yourself to reading too much into it as well, and that's no good either.

eh? im not mad, i had my woman trained long, long ago.😛
 
the point is that if he wanted to spend time with her he would have waited until after she went to work. by not waiting it showed he didn't want to spend time with her.

i see both sides and i realise men just dont think about stuff like this. he got in his head he was going to go at noon and didn't even stop to consider other options, so he went.

hmmm...this is a tough one...it's a ridiculous situation you have been put in...

Is it worth it...I doubt it....if she gets that bad for a simple situation like you are in you would have to consider if it's worth being with a girl like that..

I would laf at my wife/girlfriend if she would carry on like that..

up to you man...good luck..

I think that is going a bit far.
If it happened every day, then yeah, not worth it, but everyone has bad days and EVERYONE, including yourself gets pissy about stupid things, it just happens, doesnt make it any more fun, but it's certainly not a reason to dump someone, if you dump someone for a reason like that, your probably going to either end up alone, or with a complete doormat for a spouse.

The point is if she wanted him to spend time with her she should have woke up at something closer to a reasonable hour.

She got it in her head that he doesnt want to spend time with her and didnt stop to consider other options (like waking the fark up before 1pm).
Personally, I do NOT like to go shopping after 4pm on a sat. WAY more hassle way more people to deal with.

Typical female logic though.

[Edit]Sorry something wierd happened and it ate half my post on first try[/Edit]

True, but they both agreed to go to the aquarium the night before. So he planned it out, while she just wanted to wing it and get what she thought was appropriate for both of them. Or rather, what she wanted.

What time does she get out of work? You're assuming that she'll work for like what, 1 or 2 horus?. So if she starts at 4:30, works for 1 hour (5:30) then takes the next 40 minutes to drive home (6:10). I don't know about how it is where you are, but pet stores/fish/reef stores aren't open that damn late. He even told her he was leaving. Why didn't she say anything then?

In total, she was inconsiderate and started the whole thing by being a b1tch to him when he woke her up.

[rant]I don't see what other options there were. I tired of hearing how the man always doesn't think of some option because he's some inconsiderate "man." A lot of you **&^$+ women are worse then those who try to put a racist spin on everything everyone says (the thread about the "ghetto" neighbors).
[/rant]
 
It was an absurd argument. If she wanted you to stay and even just lay with her while she tried to wake up, she should have told you.

But you guys shouldn't try to pin your own nutty girlfriends' behavior on ALL women (and all of you guys who've never even had a long-term relationship or spoken to a woman can just stop replying right now).

My boyfriend pulls more of this "typical female" drama than any woman I've ever seen. Everybody pulls some irrational, immature crap sometimes, male and female, it's just human nature.
 
She has her hooks into you with her majgic thingie, she probablu makes you account for the money you spend too, that is just my guess.
Put her on the defence, during the night roll her over a little and pee under her and then wake her up saying "what the hell?" Are you getting so lazy you cannot even get out of bed to pee? Let her explain that.

Bleep

Hahahahahaha, thats so wrong!
 
You're shacked up with a girl that you didn't make a commitment to marry. You're in this relationship for the sex, what did you expect?

You might have a point, except for two little facts: (1) she agreed to go with him the day before, and (2) she didn't want to spend time with him today; rather, she wanted to sleep.

Assuming she even got up when she did, she felt that sleeping until 12:45pm was far more important than doing something with him that she'd already agreed to do. Important enough that she's pissed at him.

Selfish biatch. Kick her to the curb.
 
Sounds about right.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE women, but sometimes you wonder....
 
I think everyone goes through this once and a while with their SO, with me and my wife it is every day 🙁
