12. Cleaning and arranging
For most women, cleaning and arranging things in their
proper order is a hobby, let alone a habit. They cannot rest till all the blues
are lined from light to dark, till the cushions are puffed up right or till the
already clean mirror is further cleaned. All men wonder how women go from
interesting and zappy in the first date to domestic devils post marriage.
13. Crockery and Cutlery
Women love both these items. The kitchen is well stocked
with a fruit fork, a dessert spoon, a salad bowl, a serving dish, an eating
dish, a small plate, a…. OMG! By the time the man figures out in what plate he
is to eat using which fork, he is sure to lose his appetite.
14. Change of clothes
Women love changing clothes. If possible, they would have
separate morning, afternoon, evening, night and late-night clothes and go about
changing their looks 5 times a day for every day of their life. Alas! Budget and
space constraints stop them from following this habit to the T.
15. Yes means No, No means Yes
ALL men agree that they cannot fathom this particular habit
of women. For the love of God, why do women have to say yes when they mean no
and vice versa?! Maybe, they are just genetically engineered to be this way.
Maybe.
16. Frenemies
You know that habit, when women hug each other when they
meet but then bad mouth one another behind the back? Yea, that one. This
frenemy concept is one which men fail to understand. Coz in the man world,
you’re either a buddy or not. Simple.
17. Trick questions
“So, who is hotter? Your ex or the one you were staring at 2
minutes ago” THIS right here is a trick question. She doesn’t care about your
ex, she doesn’t care about the other woman, she is mad at you for staring but
she won’t tell you that. Instead, she will put you in a spot and absolutely
agonise you. And she is doing this out of habit.
18. Shopping
This one is a centuries old issue and men have made peace
with it by accepting the fact that women love to shop. Still, if you dig deeper
you will know that men simply cannot fathom how women can love shopping so
much? How can they make a habit out of a rather tiresome experience? HOW?
19. Ask questions, yet don’t seek answers
Of course women love asking questions. In fact they are
habituated to asking ones they know they don’t want an answer to. Yet, they
trouble a man till he answers and then yell at him for answering. Women and
their habits!
20. Gossip
Men gossip too. But they don’t understand how women can live
on gossip; day-in, day-out, 24 hours, 7 days of unadulterated gossip. Truth be
told, this is one habit that is passed down generations. It is an important
evolutionary concept and men shouldn’t break their head trying to understand
it.
21. Carrying flats around
Women love heels, even when they cannot walk in them. Yet,
they will wear them and, as an alternative, carry flats around. When you see a
woman switching her heels with her flats, you will spot her companion (standing
right next to her) rolling his eyes in exasperation.
22. Texting
“What will you eat?” “What time will you come?” “If you are
reaching in 5, should I heat the food?” Women have found a way of turning
texting into question-asking. And men are yet again at a loss of words at a
woman’s ability to turn a helpful tool into a tiresome habit.
23. To eat or not to eat
Women don’t want to gain weight and yet they dream about
chocolates and cakes. Why not eat and be happy or not eat and be happy? But
then again, women never liked to keep it simple.
24. Screeching
Women screech. They don’t shout or yell, they make that
shrieking noise that can burn a hole in a man’s ears. If you don’t know what I
am talking about, think of the way in which girls screech when they see their
favourite celebrity or pair of shoes they love. Got what I am saying now?
25. Pouting and posing
Women love to pout and pose. All you have to do is stand
with a camera in front of them and they will start their performance. While men
are perfectly happy to make do with an awkward smile, women feel it imperative
to unleash their inner model. Yet again, to do so is their habit and men don’t
understand head or tail of it.
26. Cross-checking
Women like to verify facts and stories. And they do so even
at the risk of irking their man. Women may cross-check out of habit or doubt,
but this behavioural trait is one they got to do away with.
27. Sharing EVERYTHING with her BFF
Men have never understood and perhaps will never understand
why women share everything with their girlfriends. They also cannot comprehend
what it is that woman can talk about for hours and hours non-stop. Guess, it’s
just a girly thing after all!
28. Last minute arrangements
Women will work and arrange and decide and organise till the
very last minute. So much so, that sometimes, all the preparations make the man
not want to go to wherever it is that they are headed.
29. The silent treatment
Either they talk too much and ask too many questions or they
don’t talk at all. Using silence as a weapon when they’re upset is typical of a
woman. This is one habit that *scares* men and puts them into uncomfortable,
damage-control zone ASAP.
30. XOXO and
Women love using symbols and emoticons to express their
feelings. While it is good sometimes, most of the times most men think it is
downright funny and unnecessary. What’s this excessive need to blow air kisses
and hugs in the first place, they wonder.
