At last, a guy’s taking the time to write this all down.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, the guy’s side of the story. We always hear \u2018the rules\u2019 from the female side.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now here are the rules from the male side.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These are our rules! \u00a0Please note, these are all numbered \u20181\u2019 ON PURPOSE!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Men are NOT mind readers.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
    1. \u00a0\u00a0Learn to work the toilet seat. \u00a0You\u2019re a big girl. \u00a0If it\u2019s up, put it down. \u00a0We need it up \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0and you need it down. \u00a0You don\u2019t hear us complaining when you leave it down.<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a01. \u00a0\u00a0Sunday sports: It\u2019s like the full moon or the changing of the tides. \u00a0Let it be.<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Crying is blackmail.<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Ask for what you want. \u00a0Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work! \u00a0Strong hints do not work! \u00a0Obvious hints do not work! \u00a0Just say it!<\/span><\/li>\n
    5. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.<\/span><\/li>\n
    6. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. \u00a0That\u2019s what we do. \u00a0Sympathy is\u00a0 what your girlfriends are for.<\/span><\/li>\n
    7. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Anything we said six months ago is inadmissible in an argument. \u00a0In fact, all comments
      \nbecome Null and Void after seven days.<\/span><\/li>\n
    8. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0If you think you\u2019re fat, you probably are. \u00a0Don\u2019t ask us.<\/span><\/li>\n
    9. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0If something we said can be interpreted two ways; and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.<\/span><\/li>\n
    10. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0You can either ask us to do something, or tell us how you want it done. \u00a0Not both. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.<\/span><\/li>\n
      2. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.<\/span><\/li>\n
      3. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. \u00a0Peach, for example, is a fruit,
        \nnot a color. \u00a0Pumpkin is also a fruit. \u00a0We have no idea what mauve is.<\/span><\/li>\n
      4. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0If it itches, it will be scratched. \u00a0We do that.<\/span><\/li>\n
      5. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0If we ask what is wrong and you say \u2018nothing\u2019, we will act like nothing\u2019s wrong. \u00a0We know
        \nyou are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.<\/span><\/li>\n
      6. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0If you ask a question, you don\u2019t want an answer to; Expect an answer you don\u2019t want to
        \nhear.<\/span><\/li>\n
      7. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine…..Really.<\/span><\/li>\n
      8. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0You have enough clothes.<\/span><\/li>\n
      9. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0You have too many shoes.<\/span><\/li>\n
      10. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I am in shape. \u00a0Round IS a shape!<\/span><\/li>\n
      11. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Thank you for reading this. \u00a0Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; but did you
        \nknow men really don\u2019t mind that? \u00a0It\u2019s like camping.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
