Things to Know Before You Get Married
A few examples from our everyday lives tells us why exactly “men are from Mars, and women from Venus”. If you and your “better half” plan to spend the rest of your lives (read: until divorce) together there are some facts that you should be aware of. And here they are:
Nicknames
When a woman names all her friends, she uses regular names such as: Lucy, Wendy, Jane, Kate… Man’s friends are called: Fatty, Speedy, Whitey, The Dog…
Payment
When the time comes to pay the bill in the restaurant, guys will automatically throw a $200 on the table, although the actual amount of the bill is three to four times smaller. They all want their change back, but will never admit it. Women, on the other hand, will take out a calculator and calculate the exact change in order to avoid potential problems.
Bathroom
A man has only five items: toothbrush, shower gel, shaving machine (or a razor), soap, and a towel from the hotel he stayed in last summer. A woman has more than hundred items, of which half are totally unknown to the man, such as a peeling crème, revitalizing crème, night crème, daily crème…
Food
As soon as one of the grocery items is missing, a woman will immediately go to the store. Men go to the store only when there are no more eatable items left in the fridge, which are usually an old ketchup bottle and a stinky piece of cheese.
Shoes
A man wears only one pair of shoes all day long. A woman wears sports shoes in the morning. In her office, she pulls out high-heel shoes but takes them off as soon as she sits down, because it is “very painful being in them”.
Dressing up
A woman will dress nicely for every occasion, for grocery shopping, taking out the trash and even for watering the flowers on the balcony. A man will dress nicely only two times a year: family wedding, funeral.
Cats
Women LOVE cats. They absolutely adore them. Men only say that they love them, but they are really torturing them in different ways as soon as the woman is not watching.
Washing clothes
Every few days, a woman will wash some clothes. She will always find something dirty. A man will wash his clothes only after he had worn every single clean piece, including the jeans from high school.
Children
A true mother remembers the first burp, first words, first eaten apple, first tied shoelace… A father only knows that there are some creatures walking and crawling around the house that call him “dad”.
What? You think this is a bunch of bulls***? Maybe so, but when you think about it, you will notice that at least half of it is true ![]()
