Our expectations aren’t unreasonable

We make excuses for men who sleep on a mattress on the floor... how can we also be hard to please?

Then they pull the “I’m not a mind reader” shit as if anyone is satisfied with never receiving heartfelt messages, or notes, gifts, ect. Why do we have to tell you that we appreciate effort? Lmao. Is the “smarter” gender really that dumb?

The dudes that say this are always the same ones that have girlfriends that go above and beyond to make them happy without even asking. Then call them crazy for expecting even an ounce of it back.

This was one of my biggest gripes with my ex. He acted like my expectations were unreasonable and that he could never live up to them. Not only were my expectations completely reasonable, I clearly and effectively communicated them to him. We had a terrible song and dance routine where I would say "I need X," he'd be like "yeah, okay," I'd remind him, he'd be like "I got it," I'd get upset when he didn't do X, and then he'd act like I somehow was unreasonable as though I never communicated my needs to him in the first place. Ugh.

I was seeing a guy for a few months before he left the country and I mentioned in passing I like coffee a lot. Next time I saw him he had brought me two mugs because "it made me think of you." He is in Korea now and I mentioned how I really want to go see the Cherry Blossom blooms in Spring over there. A few days later he surprised me with a picture of some cherry blossom trees. These are all little things and I wasn't trying to hint anything. The small things count too. I've talked to guys here and there that wouldn't even do small things like that. So those things are huge to me and I won't expect less with the next guy. Surprise me with pretty pictures (not dick pics) and something I like. Not that hard.

Time, attention and consideration. That's too hard for LVM

I honestly don’t understand why TRP and mgtows complain about women this much, or say that they’re complicated while they say themselves how they’re against mariage and monogamy, and that they just want to “spin plates”.

Why don’t they just go pay a hooker ( most of them can afford weeds so it’s not like they lack money) or they can simply go after nymphomaniac women or simply just a woman who’s more than okay to have a one night stand?

My theory is that most of them are so fucked up that they might gain some sort of happiness by breaking a woman’s heart after fucking her, and that they have no pleasure by fucking a woman who will gain pleasure as much as them by having loveless sex

I was married to a LVM and one of the little things was flowers. I had always wanted him to bring me flowers, even the cheap ones from the grocery store would have worked just fine. But he thought it was a big joke to not bring flowers. He wouldn't listen to my simple request on that, you can imagine he didn't listen to the big stuff either.

I got my first and only flowers from that man the day after I told him he needed to move out. Too little, too late.

It's not grievous to a man who loves you to make you happy. Making someone you love happy makes you happy.

EvesStillLearning · 2020-05-01T17:19:30+00:00

Queens, I've learned that when men say they want an independent woman, it's not a compliment. It's code for "I'm not expecting to spend much time or money on you."

My response.."It's time to take out the trash!"

lonelybones1 · 2020-05-01T13:08:18+00:00

And then they call us gold diggers 🤣 they have no arguments so they resort to name-calling like some dude just did in my DMs. 🤣🤣

jimmbie · 2020-05-01T19:51:10+00:00

My bf got me a t-shirt I had casually mentioned I had thought was cool once and I felt like the happiest girl in the world. It wasn't much, but it meant that he listened and cared.

blueeeekat · 2020-05-02T01:51:53+00:00

In summary: do kind things. Urgh some guys cant even do the bare minimum 🙄. My ex felt like he didnt need to do this because he had a big dick . Not wrong but sex wasnt even good 🤦‍♀️. Hurt most all the time. I guess him being a cunt dried up mine

cherthemusical · 2020-05-02T09:26:35+00:00

Reminds me of the post I read the other day. Her boyfriend hadn't taken her out for dinner ONCE in their three year relationship, and when she asked if they could go for their anniversary he called her materialistic and a gold digger. Just throw him in a tar pit already.

They're hard to satisfy because his penis is not satisfying

RedditRabbitt · 2020-05-01T20:33:04+00:00

My husband used to say, "girls aren't that hard to make happy. Literally watch any romantic comedy and just copy something you see."

Blahblahblah76sss · 2020-05-02T00:46:37+00:00

Michelle25000 · 2020-05-01T21:21:04+00:00

The minimum is being gentle, respect and love. After all I am a human being.

Blahblahblah76sss · 2020-05-02T00:46:38+00:00

Wow.
