Ask the Girls

[Princess]

LOL.

Sounds like you had real issues, Juggy.

I don't think so, it wouldn't be an immediate write-off--but close.

 

[Corleone]

Glad to hear, because we broke up two and a half days later.

I tried, failed, moved on, and planed on repeating the process.

 

[Kaczynski]

I pretend I have more testosterone. It's an internet thing. There are no women on the internet, see. And if you're so awesome like Princess you don't have to make out you're really masculine and insensitive...D: Do you guise not like me then.



I can't be bothered going over all the questions since Princess does a good job of answering them AND she has more experience [oh, and that brown nosing thread...*cough*] but here's my perspective on the ones I picked up on.



@Jughead - it would depend where the hole was, and if you were wearing underwear. I wouldn't mind really, we could potentially have made an epic joke out of it and at least I would remember you!



@whoever asked that question - I have loads of trouble taking compliments, but I think it's part of the female manipulativenessessess. Anyway I find that we are very self-effacing, and then people go, Oh no, you're not, you're great, etc etc! She just wants you to contradict her and boost her ego. Of course there are lots of people who genuinely are uncomfortable with praise.



@Nebulous - I reckon girls are more emotional because we have a lot of trouble hiding our feelings. I KNOW YOU GUYS FEEL TOO. You're just conditioned to conceal it because it's a sign of weakness. Also, we have more to cry about.

Debatable.



@ForumAddict - What I look for in a guy...well he has to be a computer geek, he has to like RPG's but not MMORPG's, he has to be able to spell, he has to have a nice voice, he has to acknowledge that the bass is the most important instrument in a band, and he has to, oh I don't know, like me a little bit. And with a bit of luck, with a British accent, because those are nice. Also a bit of an asshole to everyone else, but nice to me. Harhar.



Phew. I give up now.

 

[Nebulous]

For princess...

What does it feel like to have a living being inside your stomach?

 

[Princess]

Never had a living being inside my stomach--it's called a uterus Nebulous

But--It's a world of opposites.

At first I was like YES!! Then it was like OMG! what am I going to do with a baby?

With the boys, I thought I was going to die--very sick. And just because it's called morning sickness--doesn't mean it just hits in the morning.

My daughter--I got sick a couple times, and it was over. Never felt better.

Most of the time a pregnant woman is an emotional train wreck--EVERYTHING makes her cry. Almost like a manic/depressive off their meds (I hope no one takes offense at that analogy)

You want to sleep 24/7--or you wake up at 2 am and want to wax all the floors in the house. My husband got to where he'd just shake his head and let me do whatever I wanted (as long as he didn't think I'd get hurt)

The smell of food makes you sick, then you can't get enough of eat. (it was hell trying to find a KFC open at 3 am LOL)

When it's all over, you don't know whether to be relieved or terrified. lol. Most of the time, it's worth it though.

Yeah i know all about pregnant women.

I would never let my ex do ANYTHING. I remember one time flipping out because she picked up a gallon of milk at the grocery store. Although she was annoyed with me, she thought it was sweet that I cared.

 

[Princess]

Pregnancy doesn't equal disabled. lol.

Although some think so.

 

[Nebulous]

Well the doctor said for her to avoid heavly lifting.

 

[Princess]

Heavy lifting means different things to different people. But that is really sweet.

 

[Corleone]

Favorite part about having children?

 

[Princess]

The conception.

 

[Nebulous]

The conception.

Yeah.. He should have worded it: Whats the best part of being a parent?

Having the child, as in: creating the baby, carrying it for 9 months and then delivering it...... The second two parts probably arent much fun.

Best part of being a parent--finally figuring out that you did it right. You know that they are productive members of society, and they're happy.

@Nebulous - I reckon girls are more emotional because we have a lot of trouble hiding our feelings. I KNOW YOU GUYS FEEL TOO. You're just conditioned to conceal it because it's a sign of weakness. Also, we have more to cry about.

Debatable.

Should I cry more so people think I'm stronger? not really. Wouldn't sucking it up and moving on be a sign of strength, and not weakness? Makes more sense to me.



It's like when people tell their kids, it's okay to be afraid, but really it is not okay to be afraid. Your afraid, your weak. Your sad, your weak. Not any of this hide your emotions your weak nonsense, we don't hide them we just don't care, I can't speak for everyone but most.

Never said that really, just saying that it seems to me that the world ain't so bad; it's what we're doing to it...okay really, you're right, there comes a stage when it's not appropriate to cry anymore, but it's worse for men.



Some people say that it's alright to be upset about something, it shows you're not a cold, unfeeling monster, but then as you said, it's also perceived to braver to just suck it up and give up mourning, it won't make a difference anyway.



But I think it's good to have a cry. Not speaking for all females, but at my age at the moment, no one seems to have much trouble bursting into self effacing tears at any given moment.

So Princess, do you mean that my parents don't like me then? Seriously speaking.



Also, Ask A Parent much?

 

[Princess]

@Kaz--I can't speak for your parents, but it thrills me to know that my kids are able to handle things by themselves. My older kids are around Nebulous's age. I love it when they tell me I was able to handle it or I figured out what to do by saying Mom would handle things like this or whatever.

Yeah--they still need me. They both call up and tell me their problems and issues with their love life. But they don't expect me to solve their problems. I know kids that call their parents and say I don't have rent money and expect their parents to 'fix' it.

My youngest is 15--he's not on his own yet, and my job as a parent is to prepare him for life on his own. I can't be there for him (or the others) 24/7--I have to make sure that he has the skills to survive--everything from a good education to being able to cook and clean up after himself (Momma don't make house calls)



Ask a parent, much? I talk to my mother everyday--at least once. It's nearly role reversal time (with her as the child, and me taking care of her) but I cherish my relationship with her more than you could guess.
