You can but I cannot meh?

Boys and girls, today I'd like to talk about double standards in relationships. This phenomena may be happening to you right now, at this very instant, right this second as you twirl that strand of hair between your fingers and stare at this blog with a "Huh?" look on your face. Sure I may sound like I'm being dramatic, and maybe I am. But have you ever stopped to wonder if you're a victim of DSIYR?

- Is it okay for your boyfriend to go out with his female colleagues for lunch, but when you go out with your male workmates, your boyfriend thinks they're taking you out to eat because they're hatching an evil plan to get into your pants?

- Do you let your boyfriend exchange casual sexual banter with other girls because you know it's for fun and you trust him, but when you do the same thing your boyfriend gets into a hissy fit (yes, guys can throw bitch fits - they just get all quiet and their jaw starts twitching) and he thinks your male friend just wants to get into your pants?

- Do you check out other girls with your boyfriend (i.e You go "Check out the funbags on that chick!" while you're hanging out at Coffee Bean and your boyfriend agrees), but when you point out a cute guy he gets into a hissy fit (again) and he thinks YOU want to get into EyeCandy boy's pants?

- Does he think any male that even talks to you just wants to get into your pants?

If you have said yes to any of the above, then you are, indeed, a victim. Ladies, check him the next time he decides to go all crazy on you. Men, if you're reading this, please acknowledge how cool your girlfriend is and take a chill pill.

And they say we women are unreasonable. Tsk.

Standing up for my sisters,
`Aainaa

i understand your frustration....

there is an episode of Friends where Chandler and Monica have this argument...and Chandler says he's worried coz Monica's hot..and he ain't..that's why...when a hot chick flirts,eats or even looks at you...the guy on the other end thinks he may have a chance...

so my point is ( if i do have one) Yasir's worried coz you're hot...BUT the man needs to trust you and take a chill pill...

Oh yeah, that episode! hahahaha btw, this isn't about Yasir, just so everyone knows..it's a common thing in a lot of rships, I've noticed. Really, it's not about Yasir!!! hahaha

well,been there before...my advice from experience is..maybe the guy's not trusting you to the fullest yet..he may TRUST you..but maybe not in all situation..no worries..it'll eventually blossom through time.....in other fact,the guy's just having a jerky attitude,wanna be in control of things...and maybe he just is so much in LOVE with u and dun wanna lose u no matter what.dats all.nuff said.
