Super, I know what your saying, lots of things cannot be fully expalined. My girlfriend HATES to be not-informed about whats going on. If we are going on a road trip to visit some of my friends (and she has to go with me), she needs to know every street we will be driving on. She is a control freek, plain and simple. I understand this, wether i tell her where we are giong is my option. I know it makes for a "ruff ride", be she'll get over it, she always does. The resterant thing, i can see some girls i've known act that way too. It shows "lack of planing" on his part, not "you really do love me because you try". That female, i would bet has a high level of expectations.

I've got a buddy who's ex-wife was argueing about him keeping his promises with their kids. He's a great father who doesn't put the kids in the middle like she tries to. He was simply trying to tell her he tries to get them things or take them places, but its not ALWAYS going to work out. Then he asked her if she'd ever been disappointed. To which she said "NO, never in my whole life". Some people you cannot reason with, and others just don't allow themselves to try. She does not try harder than she can, she only gives the kids what she can from a safe distance to make sure she "never" lets them down. I've met her, waco woman.

One thing i cannot stand about my girfriend now is her though process which she gets from her mother. They both think its funny that Dan, her husband, is in the "dog house" for not agreeing or being sensitve enough. For once i'd like it to be recogized that the equal-sex is equal, and just because we don't agree, does not mean one is more right than the other.

So when the women piss off the men, do we put them in the "cat house"? No. There is a comic/calender that her mother gave to us from a farming supply place a few cities up from us. It shows two cowboys at a bar, one saying: "My wife and i had some words, I didn't get to say any". I don't take it seriously, but its stuff like that which gives girls the subconsious OK to think they have all the controll in whats supposed to be an "equal" relationship. If she has more invested then me, i wanna know what and where it is!
