The Man Rules...At Last A Guy Has Taken The Time To Write This Down!

By
Real Estate Agent with Rocky Mountain Realty Co.

Hi Guys! I got this as a forward from one of my agents. I think it's probably the most accurate representation I've seen and it sure explains a lot of my husband's behavior to me! To think, we've been married almost 17 years and some of these things have eluded me until now! Happy reading...hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

(Thanks for solving some of the mystery Viviana!) I added the pics for my own touch...

                                  

 

The Man Rules­­­­­­­­­­­­
        At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down

 

 Finally,  the guys' side of the story.
(
I must admit, it's pretty good.)
We always hear
"the rules"
From the female side.

 


Now here are the rules from the male side.
These are our rules!
Please note... these are all numbered "1"
ON PURPOSE!

 

 

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 need it down.
You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

1. Sunday sports. It's like the full moon
or the changing of the tides.
Let it be.

1. Shopping is NOT a sport.
And no, we are never going to think of it that way.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. Ask for what you want.
Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

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. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a
Problem.

 See a doctor.

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

1. If you won't dress like the
Victoria 's Secret girls, don't Expect us to act like soap opera guys.

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

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of them makes you sad or angry, then we meant the
  other one

1. You can either ask us to do something
Or tell us how you want it done.
Not both.
If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself .

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

1. Christopher Columbus did
NOT need directions and neither do we.

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings.
Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have
no idea what mauve is.

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's wrong.
We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle, besides we know you will bring it up again later.

1. If you ask a question you d on't want an answer to, Expect an answer you don't want to hear!

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine...
Really.

1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as baseball, the shotgun formation,
or
golf.

1. You have enough clothes.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. I am in shape.
  Round IS a shape!

1. Thank you for reading this.
Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight ;


But did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.

Pass this to as many men as you can -
to give them a laugh.

Pass this to as many women as you can -

to give them a bigger Laugh

Some of this applys...BUT some of it doesn't...if you want to stay happily married....

Actually a LOT of it doesn't count if you want to have a meaningful relationship with your wife.......

Women NEED to feel special, loved, protected and secure.......

Of course guys have needs too... to feel special, loved, looked up to and encouraged.....

Or else it all falls apart.....

Right? =-)

Well, Columbus may not have asked for directions but when he "discovered" America....he wasn't looking for America and he was actually lost since he thought he was someplace else.

Cute post though. Thanks for sharing.
