I do get amuse when I see guys getting frustrated with their wives and vice versa. We seem to forget that males and females think differently. I am no expert but I do try my best to grasp this reality whenever I go through an argument with the opposite sex.
One fine example of this clash of the male and female thought process is the act of shopping. I honestly don’t know what goes on the mind of a girl when they shop for stuff. I remember hanging around for what it seemed like eternity when I went grocery shopping with a female friend.

I don’t know why.. I noticed that girls take a very long time to buy anything and it can be as simple as a tube of toothpaste. Honestly, I would just stick to Darlie. Been using that since I was a kid, and never look back. Never been a Colgate fan.

And it gets worse if she is in the shampoo aisle. She would open the cap and smell the contents. I don’t really care for the smell because I know all shampoos will smell good. Have you ever used a shampoo that made your hair stink like a pile of sh!t? I don’t think so. And worse, she would read the ingredients and check if it’s organic and no harmful chemicals were used.

I understand the need to stay healthy but I have never heard anyone died by shampoo scalp poisoning before.

And soon I realize, we have spent an hour in the grocery mart. We only have 12 items on our list. -__-“

What about the time I called another female friend up to accompany me to shop for 1 pair of jeans. Yup, just one pair of plain jeans cause my old one is starting to rip at X rated places. And if the hole get any bigger, you can actually see my brown Malay a$$.

So before somebody takes a snap shot of my holey jeans on the MRT and post on stomp.com aka sabo-complain-center website, it’s time for me to part with my hard freelance money to get me a new pair.

My friend also need to do some clothes shopping of her own so I thought we could buy our stuff together. Bad mistake. The day was spent mostly trying to get her stuff and I had to make a rush decision to buy an overpriced pair of Levis. My initial plan is to go to Peninsula Plaza to get some cheap jeans brands like Amco. So I end up helping her carry her shopping bags instead.

The last shopping experience I had with another girl, I told her specifically to follow me to buy 1 pair of jeans. Since she got nothing to do so at least I know she won’t get distracted. But unfortunately she managed to psycho me to get 2 pairs of jeans and 3 graphic t shirts and a pair of shoes. I went over my budget by $150. -__-

Anyway, I have already accepted the fact that guys and girls shop differently. I totally understand how my Mum and Dad do it now. Whenever they would go to Geylang wet market, my Dad will wait at the coffee shop while my Mum will bring bags after bags of groceries.

Mum gets to shop as long as she wants. Dad gets to sip cups of tea until she is done. Everybody happy.
