Why do women I meet use me as their "Emotional Tampon?"

MichaelD

This isn't a complaint as much as an observation. Most women I meet (business included, not just personal) use me as their emotional tampon right off the bat. They just start talking to me, telling me all these personal details. I don't even ask! 😕

I guess I'm easy to talk to or something. There's a new woman in my office. No pics, OK? I would call her average looking. Nothing special, but a nice girl nonetheless. Worked with her for three weeks now. I have no sexual interest in her at all.

We've been having lunch occassionally, mostly covering work-related stuff, chatting in the office etc. But since like her second day, she'll just launch into "You know, Kathy is SUCH a bitch to get along with! KNow what she said to me? Let me tell you...blahblahblahblah."

Ironically "Kathy" does this as well! It's like I meet these women, shake their hand and they start bitching about their husband/boyfriend/mother/dog/shoes or whatever.

I don't think this happens to most guys. What the hell is going on? Do I have Tampax written on my forehead in visible-only-to-women-ink?

Aftre reading this topic, I'm not too sure how to respond to this thread. Instead I will wish you a speedy deliverance from your personal hell.
 
Girls always gossip at work.
Usually they can sniff out the guys who won't gossip other crap etc.

I'd tell each of them about what the other said then kick back with a :beer: and watch the cat fight. 😀

The thought has crossed my mind. :evil: I'm just shocked at how MUCH they tell me...they don't even know me.
 
Dude, if the bitch is ragging just wear a raincoat. Ain't no shame to get your trouser snake a little bloody anyway.

Either that (hopefully) . . .

or they are mistaking you for gay ( :Q )

in the cosmic ladies room through which all women eventually make a journey to visit, there is an inscription on the wall, carefully etched in using a sharpie..."For all emotional issues and a good time, call MichaelD".
 
Its probably becuase you act really well when you listen to them or you're in the middle of women trying to establish dominance 😛 Seriously.

I mean, if you put two friends with a really good looking girl between them, they will still act nice to each other but try make the other one look bad from time to time to establish dominance and self esteem.

In this case, your in the middle and a guy.

:Q Nooooooooeeeeeeeeeesss! OMG!!! Nooooo! AIIEEEEEEE! Gay, I'm not. I'm the biggest chauvanist pig out there. 😀

I mean, when they say stuff like "my boyfriend doesn't even want me anymore...why?" I say "well, if you stopped wearing those granny panties and put on some nice Victoria's Secret stuff, maybe he'd jump your bones again." I'm not exactly Politically Correct about it. 😀

You mean you're "butch." 😀
 
Well, it's a step up from "Emotional Enema".

You don't get to be that until you marry one of them.

Much to my chagrin, I have been in your situation. I give them the most absurd advice I can think of, punctuate it with a wet fart and excuse myself, never to return again.:Q
