Edit: opps forgot this part (If i were presented with this info this is what i would say...)
Well, from examining your post with a keen eye I have observed a very bitter and frustrated individual. You would benefit from some self - introspection and some counseling.
Lets see... first You might consider finding someone who is more like you , the very idea your frustrated with how long she takes to get ready means you should have someone a bit more earthy. If you don't like the look of an earthy girl then your just impatient and selfish and my suggestion is learn how to entertain yourself. heeeee
On further examination - Your complaints are so absolutely trivial (no offense - but trust me) that it can only mean one thing. It means you both have deep harbored resentments for eachother that you have not worked out. There are huge knots between you and you both display the inability to confront and solve issues, (It's as obvious as an atom bomb explosion). But confronting and solving isn't so easy when it involves things that make us feel vulnerable (especially with someone who you don't trust so much anymore). It's very human to feel frustrated and take out your frustrations on safe "subjects" like being lazy - when you really have something else to say. You could both use counseling. If your not into that perhaps the time for your relationship is done . It looks like there is little love lost between you anyway at this point. And it's true sometimes things go on too long.
PMS well, that made me laugh very VERY hard. Seems men will use PMS to blow off their woman's feelings and YOU sir are being avoided and blown off by the excuse of PMS. Sometimes I like to refer to it as "Putting up with a Man Syndrome" <winks>. (I'm not into stereotypes -im just yankN your chain. I think that men are insensitive and women are too sensitive is as laughable as women can't do math)
Anyway - if you really attract women who frustrate you in this and many other ways on a regular basis my guess is that is NOT gender but rather the type of person you are attracted to. That is where introspection and counseling come in.Counseling doesn't fix you or change you but it does present you with a variety of tools to apply to yourself and theworld that you might have picked up unless you took a sh*tload of psy or philosophy courses. Lets face it, we need to be born with a pamphlet on love life the universe and everything.. Counseling can provide you with those tools (people who know people like some people know cars.. yknow?) and give you some well - earned venting room where you wont be judged or the butt of jokes with your friends.
<taps her lips>hrmm where was I? Oh yes, Have you asked your self why after trying to confront and solve issues and then they wont stick or don't get solved that you stay only to become more frustrated in return?? or that you keep trying the same methods that don't work over an over again? Or why it is your attracted to the same kind of person?
Trust me your complaints are male and female complaints. Gender has nothing to do with it - I have seen women put "Prick" in the tile bar and rattle of your issues dozens of times.
so counseling, getting to know yourself and the habits that keep tripping you up in life will help you a lot. Please keep in mind im not putting you down ...what your explaining is soo human. Every person alive has issues with truly being upfront and knowing when to draw the line. We all want to be loved and respected and sometimes that's just not so easy =)
Good luck with healing your very sad and frustrated self,
Regards ,
