How do women think? PART 1
Hello there! I wanted to begin my entry with this question, since it bugs me completely. I'm a girl, and I often find in humour sites how there is always the parody of women being very hard to understand for men. I have something to say about this; nonsense!
Women have a certain way of seeing things and I can understand how men find them difficult, but I have to say, men are quite difficult to understand too. Football, I mean, I truly understand the passion that incites (I have 3 older brothers who LOVE football) but, there is no need to get cranky if your team looses. Or the big deal about cars. They are useful, and some are very pretty, but I don't care the different types of cars there is and the features and all. I just want them to work and not fall apart in the middle of the road.
Now, returning to the question at hand, women, like men, just want to be happy. If you truly love a woman you must love her with the things you understand and the ones you can't make any sense of. But to make it easier for you I'll write a few pieces of information for everyone to see, for men to learn and women to criticise or add to, so to unveil this mystery :
Shopping: why do women take so long? We like wearing nice things, for many reasons, but I like to think it's mainly because it feels awesome to walk down the street and feel completely sexy and great in an outfit. Now, why do we take so long in choosing? Because we are on the eternal look out for that one item that is nice, good quality and decently priced. Now, most items may have 2 of those characteristics, but to find the one that fulfils those requirements you have to search. We know that clothes aren't the only thing we'll have to pay that month, so we have to be thorough. Besides, it's nice getting tired for something other than work, I mean, when we go out with friends and we talk (granted, a LOT) and browse clothes, it releases stress and it's just nice. Besides, it's treating yourself, why is that bad?
Now, why do we insist on, whilst hanging out with a guy in a mall or wherever, do we insist on entering a shop, browse, loose all thread of the conversation we were currently having because we wanted to try out a piece of clothing that in the end we don't buy? Two reasons; one, maybe, in a parallel universe, we would indeed buy it and it's for that moment we just want to see how it looks and two, we get curious and motivated very quickly. It's like this (for men to understand, I mean) men often look at cars, and are curious about how they would look driving them and how the leather seats or the gears would feel and so on, but rarely have the chance to actually try it, and even if they do try out a fabulous sports car, it is even more rare that they would actually buy it. You guys get mad because you happen to be there when your girl saw something on the window of a shop, but if you took her to a car market or wherever you try out cars and she tags along while you and the salesman talk and talk and talk about cars, she'll get bored as well.
The difference is that women have this open mind about what they will do when they go out, they don't always have a place to go or something to do and they can just enjoy the moment. Personally, while walking down the busy corridors of a mall I don't like having a schedule (unless it's for lunch or a movie) I like that freedom of not knowing what to do next so you do whatever you please. It's cool just to sit somewhere and talk (coffee or no coffee).
I think that for moment I have written enough. If you have any comments, go ahead, I'm not scared nor I bite. And any suggestions for what my next topic on how do women think will be gladly taken under consideration. Please, do not think that I'm making this post in several parts because I don't have any other topic in mind. (Badam ts)
Take care everyone! See you next time!
