THE MAN RULES

    Finally the guys side of the story. (please note all are #1 for a reason.

    1> Men are not mind readers

    1> Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down.
    We need it up. You don't hear us complaining about about you leaving it down.

    1> Sunday sports are like the full moon or the changing tide. Let it be.

    1> Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.

    1> Shopping is not sport. Don't ever expect us to think of it as such.

    1> Crying is blackmail.

    1> If you think you're fat you probably are. Don't ask.

    1> Ask for what you want. Subtle, strong or obvious hints do not work. Just say it.

    1> Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to most questions.

    1> Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do.
    Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

    1> Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument.
    In fact, all comments are null and void after 7 days.

    1> If something we said makes you cry or get angry, you misinterpreted us.

    1> You can either ask us to do something or how you want it done. NOT BOTH
    If you already know the best way to do something, do it yourself.

    1> Christopher Columbus didn't need directions. Neither do we.

    1> If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

    1> If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," We will act like nothing is wrong.
    We know you're lying, but it's just not worth the hassle.

    1> If you ask a question you don't know the answer to,
    Expect an answer you don't want to hear.

    1> Men see in only 16 colors. Like Windows default settings. Peach and Pumpkin are
    fruits, not colors. And we have no concept of mauve.

    1> When we have to go somewhere, ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING you wear is fine. REALLY!

    1> You have enough clothes and too many shoes.

    1> Thank you for reading. I know I have to sleep on the couch tonight.
    (But you know, men really don't mind. It's like camping.)

    I particularly liked:

    **chuckle** men really aren't complicated creatures.

    Women can and do make life so difficult.

    Hey Freydi,

    LOL, I posted the list to my wife at work and this is her reply (if I end up sleeping in the shed I'm blaming you):

    Dear Mr Hinze

    Thank you for your email. I know now how the mind of a man ticks. That
    has been very useful, thank you so much.
    I am also pleased to know that you are aware already of where you are
    sleeping tonight, ( please see the last entry on your list). Very astute
    of you.

    Looking forward to discussing further ALL the contents of the list
    tonight.

    Kind regards

    This is so true, women will just listen and nod and realise you only needed to talk then you feel better..

    My man is immediately working out before I've even finished my sentence how I need to handle 'this situation'!

    Hey Freydi,

    I just received another e-mail from Claire. It's all your fault!:

    <Don't know what's 'Very good' about what I have to say to YOU!!!!!!!!

    You're in for it tonight, Pal! - And don't you dare reply to
    that!!!!!!!!>
