I could live to be 1 million years old and still never understand women. How can she be so angry with you that she will not look at speak to you, or even acknowledge your existence, but then suddenly without warning be perfectly fine and act like nothing ever happened? This not about any specific woman, just a random Thursday thought.

Mkaes me understand they are crazy at an early age. I already knew this. I grew up with 2 sisters (older and younger). They are nuts.

They're just wired different (in general). I've been with my wife for over 23 years and I've gotten to the point where I've stopped trying to figure out the "why's". I just adjust and move on.

With my wife for more than 35 years. It has been a long time since I had to wonder why. I can tell how she is doing from her posture. I know when she walks into a room what she needs from me. It might be a hug or a kind word, or it might be silence and space, or anything in between. Most of the time she is willing to explain herself but sometimes she just expects me to know, so I have learned to read her. It is possible, but it has to start with the understanding that they have different prevalent thoughts, drives and emotions.

Honestly, I wouldn't choose to invest as much time and effort with another woman. I am glad that I did with Amy because our relationship is amazing in spite of our faults. But, man, was it work.

Men are pretty simple. Women are not. But it can be worth the effort if you find the right one.

Ditto - one older, one younger.”Nuts” is nice - other guys know what you’re really saying while women just think you’re trying to be funny.

I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so
I sat down and had a cold beer.
The day was really quite beautiful, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking.
My wife walked by and asked me what I was doing,
and I said, "Nothing."
The reason I said "nothing" instead of saying "just thinking" is because she then would have asked, "About what?"
At that point I would have had to explain that men are deep thinkers about various topics, which would lead to other questions.
Finally I pondered an age old question: Is giving birth more painful than getting kicked in the nuts?
Women always maintain that giving birth is way more painful than a guy getting kicked in the nuts, but how could they know?
Well, after another beer, and some more heavy deductive thinking, I have come up with an answer to that question.
Getting kicked in the nuts is more painful than having a baby, and even though I obviously couldn't really know, here is the reason for my conclusion:
A year or so after giving birth, a woman will often say, "It might be nice to have another child."
But you never hear a guy say, "You know, I think I would like another kick in the nuts."
I rest my case.
Time for another beer. Then maybe a nap.
