PH women help what ws I supposed to say?

[pesty]

quite long but Im confused. what do you lot expect?

A few weeks ago we went to a wedding. my 2 girls were bridesmaids and so we got a lot of pics taken by the photographer guy.

GF orderd some photo's and they arrived 3 days ago.

They are still on the mantlepiece just as she placed them 3 days ago.

Came in last night from work after a 12 hour (stressful) shift to be asked.

GF" do you like the pictures?"
Me "yes"

Pause

GF" which is your favourite?"
me pics one

GF"oh" stern look obviously indicates Ive picked the wrong one.

here we go I think to myself.

GF"why did you pick that one"
Me"becuase its got all four of us on"
GF"oh"
pause

GF" don't you like this one?" points at a picture of just the 2 of us

Me" yes"

GF "oh" stood shooting me daggers

GF "why isnt it you favourite?"

didnt answer coulnt be arsed to argue just ignored her and turned on the PC

GF goes to bed in a huff.

What the hell was that all about? she has asked me if I like the frigging pictures several times every frigging day .

help

[dick dastardly]

women are stupid

[Krusty]

Tell her you've changed your mind and then pick a picture with just the girls in
then say "This picture is like my life......"

[Mrs Fish]

Women you can't win

[cotty]

Of course the question i have to ask was why is she asking you to choose a favourite, does she want to blow one up and frame it, in which case she wanted a pic of just the two of you then she should have said.

You probably want to just to blow her up.

You could try my way, dump her and she rips up the pictures, problem solved (true story)

I'm assuming from that that they're not her kids.
Maybe she's just feeling a little overwhelmed and needs to feel that she's still very special in your life.
Could be a whole host of other factors adding to this.

I mean this with the utmost respect, but if I were in your shoes (which Im not) she wouldnt be "the one" for me.

Contrary to the popular belief that 'there is only one partner out there for everyone' statistically there are several thousand "perfect" partners of a similar age for every man in this country, who given time you could fall in love with, marry, and perhaps not have these kinds of situations with.

Forgive my blunt opinionated babblings, but Ive always felt choosing a spouse was the most important aspect of life, I just wouldnt want to be in your shoes, thats all

[lazyitus]

She has issues, IMO.

Boot her out and get another GF. You need to be firm with this. Don't hang around. The rot has started and its a slippery slope from here on in.

I've seen it down the local. Mate was shot in the arm by his missus for getting the wrong bag of crisps. Its terrible, I tell ya!

Sort it mate, it really will turn nasty.

Another mate of mine didn't say 'Happy Birthday' to his wife quick enough after he'd woken up. AXE met head and the rest is history. Vicious they are, vicious.

Run.

What you should have said is " Honey, I like them all. It's just the one of all of us is now, our life. When fund permit I will have the one of us blown up to - Insert Size Here -" In the end, you damned if you don't and damned if you do.

Remember Women wrote the rules. When they realise you know the rules, they change them.

Hmmmm, she wants you to pick a wedding photo with just the 2 of you in as a favourite...
Perhaps she's hinting at getting some more wedding photos with the 2 of you in them...

Run, godsdamnit, whilst you still can before she drags you to Moss Bros...

[jeremyc]

Surely the correct response is: "I like them all - how about I get one of each framed for you."

See how you can cleverly avoid making what will inevitably be the wrong choice?

[Podie]

Oooh... a tough one that... the standard "no your bum doesn't look big in that" might not work here...

Fear, you are in uncharted territory...

[maxf]

Look really closely at the photo - are you sure you aren't very drunk in it and have your flies undone/willy hanging out? She might be mad because it has been sent to every relative at the wedding?




I made to immortal error last night of asking my girlfriend if she would like me to buy her a new bikini for holiday. THEN when she said she was taking the 'black' one I mistakenly asked if that was the 'big' one. Its a miracle I'm not featuring on next weeks crimewatch... as the victim.

The trouble is (there is no polite way of saying this) the comments you made are made by hundreds of thousands of men in the UK.

Half of the men make those comments joking.
(But wouldnt dream of sticking with a lady who acted like that)

The other half also make the comments joking. But(!)... they joke, because that IS their reality.

Set your standards and make your choices. And your beds. And be prepared to lie in them when the day is done.

Life is nothing more than growth choices vs fear choices, and its all good stuff, because you always have the ability to choose.

Bunch of wimps!!

My mate was asked by his girlfriend "does my bum look big in this"

He replied "in that?... it looks big in everything!"


Needless to say he didn't have a jump that night but at least she doesn't ask him pointless questions any more.

Cruel to be kind.
Yreat em mean etc.


Good luck!

school boy error, you have much yet to learn

[Mr Whippy]

There is no right answer. Simply accept you in trouble. Trying to avoid the confrontation is fruitless if the other half is in attack mode.

Women, can't live with em, can't kill em

Wise words. Whatever was narking her off was NOT to do with the pictures; they were just an excuse or trigger for some other thing that is bothering her. Tread carefully!
