As a specie, I think even though we're biologically different as male and female, with men mostly seen as the stronger amongst the two although there are exceptions to these things.
Women are not usually seen as physically strong, but when us guys were busy lifting weights and practising swordsmanship to go to war, the women were practicing something else.. Their Manipulation tactics..
You'll usually hear a guy say I'll just let it go, just for peace to reign, while the lady gives you that knowing smile that says I would've shown you pepper if you didn't do it my way.
This practically happens in every society. You want to watch a premier league match, she comes in gives you a rub on the head and within minutes you're forcing yourself to smile at her favorite Bollywood series.
Talk about Suffering and Smiling
As much as possible I avoid settling couple disputes, because half of the time after ranting to you and complaining about how tired he is, he'll still go back to the love of his life.
I'm like bro this is the fifty eighth time you're tired in just one week, just carry your cross and leave me out of it.
Friday evening, I had a discussion with a classmate from back in high school. He had a girl over for a few days (she's actually another classmate) who needed a place to stay for a few weeks.
Two days into the arrangement, dude was already getting rules and regulations in his own apartment.
The guy came to me and was like
hazmat, did I miss something?, or did she pay my last house rent without me knowing? She's giving me rules in my own house.
I just laughed it off and said he was getting girlfriend nagging for free while being single.
I guess it's been awhile he's been in a relationship, because he decided to pay for her hair as a gesture of goodwill and was shocked at the amount that he had to part it.
What was supposed to be a few weeks stay ended up becoming less than a week.
When we the guys were busy taking gym lessons, the ladies were taking classes on Manipulation 101.
I kept asking him when she would be coming over for another visit and apparently my friend has gone offline from WhatsApp since Saturday morning (or is he avoiding me?, I haven't gotten a reply yet😂).
I wasn't even teasing him, just asking an innocent question as a concerned friend of more than a decade now.
Where would that poor girl sleep? I guess not everyone is as kind hearted as I am. Pity that I don't actually like stress, I would've invited her over to my place.
