Simple Simon.... Not So Simple Afterall...

I have been thinking about this post for some time now and somehow its not very clear in my head how I want to say what I am about to say. So here’s my honest attempt to say what I have to say.

Do not fret; my subject is not as grave as I make it sound. I am only trying to understand the other half of the human kind by writing this post. :)

Men I believe are a simpler creation of god when compared to women…. Just that they don’t stay simple. I can safely say that I know quite a few guys and most of them seem to have one major problem… they are not able to handle the woman in their life.

So one fine day the phone rings and I am glad to see a familiar name on the screen and that to a particularly good friend’s name and I go, ‘So how are you? What’s up?’

And soon I realize he is totally down.

Most men rely on other close woman friends to solve their relationship problems.

I suppose it’s because of one or more of the following reasons:

1. They want someone to listen patiently and not laugh about it and say I told you so.
2. Their guy friends wouldn’t appreciate it if they dwell on the topic for too long.
3. A guy’s way of discussing such problems is resorting to boozing and bringing up their experience in such matters, which results in a further depressed atmosphere.
4. They want a girl’s perspective in such matters.
5. They don’t mind some sympathy and concern at such times.
6. Girls are so good at bitching!
7. There is a possibly that this girl friend might hook him up with some of her girl friends, which will in turn help him forget about the girl and look at the matter with a fresh angle. (Can’t change these creatures…sigh...)
8. In many cases, if this girl friend is herself single, there is a 100% chance that he starts going around with her. (Come on! She has all the qualities I have always looked for in a girl and she understands me!)

(If she isn’t single then sigh… if only he had the sense to get her before another guy had a chance.)

* I mean no offence to the men in this world.

PS: - If you have anything to add, feel free to do so. I am interested in knowing other reasons.

PPS: - Amber wants me to convey that she has disappeared for the same old reasons- no time, nothing to write about in life.
