Mistakes that Men Make

I know men don’t like to think they make mistakes, but guys, sometimes you do.  And the blogs say you don’t like admitting to a mistake.

WebMD says that in terms of sex men make at least six mistakes. Mistakes

But listening to men talk at my favorite pub, I think men make two different types of mistakes with regard to women.  And ladies, take note of all of this.  It is helpful for you to be aware.

One mistake you men make – you are too cynical and you need to lighten up:

Or you might be making the “softie” or totally clueless mistake (a problem with older men, younger women).

From “Lovers Love Life” here are some common mistakes men make with regard to relationships. Seven Mistakes

Essentially, it is about breaking old habits. Men have a more difficult time than women breaking old patterns of behavior especially when they fall head over heels with exterior features. Guys take a good look inside the heart and soul of the woman with whom you wish to share special moments.  And ladies, the same goes for us.

The great advantage of mistakes — they give us an opportunity to learn!

    The first mistake men make – is talking within earshot of your barstool. Is this watering hole, perchance the Brown U. faculty lounge? Who are these blowhards anyway? First, you need to get them to quit the scotch and bourbon and soda bit and graduate to Singapore slings and chocolate martinis, drinks which sucked down in quantity will make them feel worse than any women allegedly bedeviling their lives.

    And Rita, pooh-poohing exterior features is a lame excuse for you not to get to the gym more often. Being guys, you’ve insinuated that our genus is more in love with our cars than our women which if we can take the stereotype further, should mean that we like to see what’s underneath the hood unlike women, well at least my wife and mother, who are all stuck on the looks. The reality is, that no one wants an ugly car nor do they want a mechanical lemon. But your men here – why is it they sound like the type who always want the newest and fastest and the coolest gadgets – and select the ones that costs the most to repair even if they don’t keep ‘em long enough before the next best thing introduces itself, – kinda like the women in their lives?

    Thankfully, they have the services of the best barroom Freud in the business – namely, you. So let’s go to their second mistake – crying their tears over a glass of spirits. They need a healthier outlet to channel all their angst. We know that time spent marching up and down Newbury St. or 5th Ave., credit card in hand, constitutes a full day’s workout for you but for your gentlemen in need a membership to Golds Gym or the Ivy U. alumni A.C. would provide similar dividends. Your guys also need to quit feeling so sorry for themselves. They need to put themselves in someone else’s shoes – how about using your faux M.D. to get them a job as a candy-striper. Maybe then they’d see that their problems pale in comparison to others.

    They might also meet a cougar of the medical persuasion, someone looking to have their inner vixen released, someone who’s own history with men might make theirs sound boring, someone who likes good food and a good laugh, someone who has a steady job or career and a retirement account and is so involved in their own life that they don’t have time to worry about where you are when you’re not with them. Y’know Rita, that sounds a lot like you. Hmm.

    Okay, someone who knows how many games the Sox are out of first place, someone who actually looks forward to dripping sweat at the gym and here’s the killer, someone who shops at discount stores.

    And Rita, someone who will pick up your tab. The IRS might object, but if you can’t charge by the hour, at least you can be recompensed by the drink.
