Being a woman is not easy i tell you. We ourselves cannot understand us sometimes. Men have you thought of how many times you almost lost your sanity understanding us. Like when we want a pastel pink , when what we really wanted is fuschia? Like when we said "don't call me, i call you" when what we really meant was call me always every minute every second. Like when we would blurt "leave me alone" but actually saying don't leave me ,i love you. But that's what made us women very mysterious and challenging , isn't it? Women, can't live with them, can't survive without them. (^_^)

Absolutely - we women are complex creatures - LOL! I completely understand what you mean because I'm a woman, but I sometimes feel so bad for men. We tell them the opposite hoping they'll look into it deeper, but they don't read between the lines. A lot of times when we want them to not listen to us, they'll actually listen to us! It's those times that are frustrating...does that make sense? The one time we wish they'd do the opposite of what we ask, they do the very thing we asked them to do. Every other time, though, they wouldn't do as we asked. I've been there, done that! I wish men could read our minds sometimes, but then I feel sorry for them too! Oh well...opposites attract, so if they didn't like us, then why do they agree to deal with us? LOL! Take care, friend.

Oh yes, I definitely agree with you there! I love being a woman, no matter how complex of things that involves - LOL! I would do the same as you if I had another life...always a woman. That is my choice too. I understand women, so why not? Fun discussion. Happy posting!

oh this has been one of the most irritating about women. in both personal and business. while women can get away with it in personal relationships, but in business, i believe it is not a valid excuse. however, in personal relationship, men would initially find it challenging, but if a man finally decides to commit to the relationship, i think he will get through all this and be able to understand each other without saying a word.

This has really bewildered me for quite some time. What you say is true, woman are really confusing. I have and love the challenge at the same time. The chase is better than the catch I have to say. But after a while, if it goes on for too long, it just gets too old.

Oh I agree with this 100% I'm glad my man gets it, well most of the time. It's actually really annoying. I find myself annoying. I guess it's the quality of us girls that we want the guys to find it out for themselves, it's so romantic when they manage to guess what we really feel/want/say.

Growing up with an older brother and dad, I learned early on that you have to be direct with men, because they will take you at your word. When I'm mad or frustrated at my boyfriend, I just tell him I'm mad and tell him why. That way, we can move on much more quickly and without me resenting him for not reading my mind. The times I tell little white lies like you're talking about have decreased a lot, and my boyfriend usually can tell when I'm doing that, thank God!

Somehow things can't understand because we neglect it, everything has their own counter part...so we might even know if it's right thing to do until we put into action...
