He and Her...
Just happened to see this post from a forum. Certainly funny!! Haha..
*****
Moral of the Story: Women Never Meant What They Say....
Typical quarrel scenes ... very true indeed! Guys just need to be more sensitive sometimes ...(BUT NOT TOO SENSITIVE!!!)
*****
Scenario 1
Dennis & Sufen were at a department store. She saw a teddy bear & exclaimed, "Oh! This is really cute!" He offered to get it for her, but she hesitated & replied, "No....it's okay..." He shrugged his shoulders & moved on to look at something else. Meanwhile Sufen stood rooted to the spot, feeling very miffed.
His Interpretation
I offered to get the bear for u but u said u din wan it.
What She Means
Of cos I wanted the bear, u IDIOT!! I din give u a firm "no", did I?? U would insist on getting it for me if u were sincere abt the offer!
*****
Scenario 2
Cheryl & Kenming were at a jigsaw puzzle store, & his was abt to pay for a brand new 2,500 piece set for himself. suddenly, Cheryl held out another box & asked, " Do u think I should get thus puzzle? It's so nice, but it's expensive...." "Well, u can always wait for the next sale, he replied. She refused to talk to him for the rest of the evening & the next 2 days. She continued to ignore him regardless of how many times he apologized. " So, what do u want me to do?" he asked in desperation. "I can't tell u what to do, can I?" she answered.
His Interpretation
I thought u were seeking advice on whether to get that jigsaw puzzle, so I gave u my suggestion. U were really angry & I din know how to make up for it. So I chose to apologize anyway, but u continued to be angry regardless of the no. of times I said I was sorry. What more am I supposed to do if "sorry" isn't enough?
What She Means
I was hinting that I wanted this jigsaw set, & I was hoping you'd get it for me. I'm fed up b'cos u're so 'blur' u can't take a hint. If u're genuinely sorry, u would make up for ur mistake by going back to that store & getting that puzzle for me.
*****
Scenario 3
Terence & Mealanie were out on a date. Slightly b4 dinner time, she casually mentioned something abt a nice little French restaurant nearby.....When dinner time came around, he asked her what she would like to have for dinner. "Anything" she replied. They ended up in a foodcourt & she did nothing but to sulk over a bowl of beef noodles.
His Interpretation
I asked u what u wanted & u said "anything". I thought u really din have any pr eference, & were leaving the decision up to me. So I suggested the foodcourt & u din object.
What She Means
I really want to have dinner at that French restaurant. That's why I'm telling u how good it's supposed to be. I just din want to say it directly b'cos it's quite an expensive restaurant.
*****
Scenario 4
It was 2am. Faizai & Rina had had a good time at a disco & decided to call it a night. As they were hailing for cabs, Rina said, "It's quite late now, I wonder if it's safe....." "Of cos it is" he assured her. They took separate cabs home, & she turned him down the next time he asked her out on a date.
His Interpretation
I thought u were just asking for my opinion as to whether it was safe to go home at that hour! I wouldn't have minded sending u back if I'd known u'd wanted me to, but u seemed so self-assured & independent.
What She Means
I think u should be sending me home at this hour. If u had been a gentlemen, I wouldn't even have needed to drop that hint!
*****
Scenario 5
SuWei & Vishnu were planning to get their close friend a birthday gift, but couldn't agree onwhat to get. She spent hours trying to convince him that her idea of a haversack was better than his suggestion of an arcade game voucher. Finally, she said in frustration,"Why izzit always so difficult for u to understand what I'm trying to say?"
His Interpretation
Why do u keep insisting that I dun understand what u've said. I understand perfectly. It's just that I don't agree.
What She Means
Why can't u just agree with me?
*****
Scenario 6
Carl asked Fiona if it would be alright with her if he stayed at home this coming Saturday to catch a soccer match, & she said,"Sure, go ahead." She was unhappy when he actually did so.
His Interpretation
U said "ok", so I thought everything was okay
What She Means
Obviously, I din want u to stay at home & watch some stupid soccer match! I was just trying to be magnanimous! U should be smart enough to know that, & then ditch ur game to catch a moive with me.
*****
Scenario 7
Nizan had forgotten abt Yati's birthday until the very next day. When he called her to apologise, she said "It's alright.." He hung up the phone shortly after & continued to watch TV. She called him back shortly & started to cry
His Interpretation
I thought u'd already forgiven me for forgetting ur birthday, since u said it was alrite...
What She Means
It's so not alrite! How could it be alrite when u forgot abt my birthday & din even bother to make up for it! I'm so upset that I can't even bring myself to explain. But u should know!
*****
Scenario 8
Mary asked,"Am I fat?" Mike replied that she was just slightly plump, & she got upset.
His Interpretation
I thought u were asking for my opinion abt ur body size, & I was just trying to be honest.....Am I supposed to lie?
What She Means
I want u to tell me that I'm the most beautiful gal in the world, & I expect u to insist that u're being totally honest!
*****
Scenario 9
He noticed that she was unhappy abt something, but din know what it was. He asked her what was wrong & she said. " Nothing." He continued to do whatever he was doing, & suddenly he realised that she was fuming mad. Again, he asked her why she was upset. But once again, she insisted that everything was fine.
His Interpretation
Since u said nothing was wrong, I had to take it that everything was fine. How am I supposed to know what's wrong when u keep insisting that everything was fine?
What She Means
Of cos something is wrong! Of cos I'm upset! And dun tell me u dun know what's wrong! Gosh, I can't believe u're such a hopelessly insentitive creature - u greeted everyone else so warmly when u arrived, but din come say hello to me!
*****
Don't you pity them after a while? But we can't help it!!... :p
