LOL! Girl.....I would smack down someone who said to me SOME of those things - and kill him for the rest. :)
Good post - funny yet tugging at the heart.
I really like the song. And love your responses!
*no sound* hahaha...some men i tell you...
so bittersweet my emotions don't know what to do! what an eyecatching title, i couldn't wait to get here. of course i am laughing my ass off, but i'm also thinking that anyone who doesn't tune into your gentle shyness is missing the sweetest part of all. ♥
i think all this is a precursor for what's to come. just choose wisely, my darling hells, and the rest will be enchanting.

LOL and at the same time: oh dear, some men! Tssss
What about this one, on Valentine's day: here is some money, go and buy flowers for yourself.
(I told him what I thought of that shit idea right there and then, and we've been together ever since. Mind you, from that moment on I only get flowers on my birthday.)
Love kj's comment. True, no doubt!
And I love the song.
i'm glad to see a post here, but not at all qualified to comment. so....
Oh...these are great quotes. Some of them brought back unpleasant memories, but your responses gave me a laugh. Love your sense of humor!
Having never said any of those things to a woman, I pronounce myself not guilty. Heh, heh! I think *no sound* is the proper response to all of them; idiocy doesn't rate a response.
Men. Can't live with 'em.....can't shoot 'em.
Ha! Many of those must be universal guy phrases. And, gee, some are delivered in the same voice.
This no doubt comes under the heading of too much information, but since we're going there... With an arm submerged up to the elbow, an OB/GYN once said to me, "How tall ARE you?"
I bet there's a book there somewhere of comments from men that leave women reeling.
Though they had youth as an excuse I remember from my twenties (I've been out of the dating game forever)...
"You know you've broken my heart breaking up like this...do you..um..know anyone? girlfriends, rellies(???) that might be interested in..."
...and from a woolshed dance in the country, last dance, being slobbered over and leaned on...
slurred speech ..."You know" he says, tilting his hat back, "although you won't go out wiv' me, I'll never ever ever forget you -(burp).What'dya say your name was again?"
...and once sitting on the beach (we were both 18) "your hair is so beautiful and shiny - like a ..a..fox pelt".
As for the anatomical stuff, I've heard andecdotes from workmates very similar to what you've written. Makes for an interesting lunch break!
One woman took a guy home who was more interested in her silk night attire than her, and asked if he could take it home.
"I hate to ask" he said "but I'd like to see if it fits me first...".
Ahahahaha!! Some of those are absolutely priceless!!
Most of those would be history as soon as the words had left their selfish big mouths. Mind you, I'm sure someone could (and probably has) made a similar list of things women have said ...
Oh my goodness. These are funny. You are so gutsy to share them. Hahahaha! Hope you are well.
You've earned your stripes and the bloke who finally gets you will DESERVE you and do everything to keep deserving you!
Love Chunks once thought he was being romantic when he said (years ago): "You know, it's only been five years but it feels like a lifetime." Er, thanks sweetie....
I'm sure when I was young I made plenty of similarly asinine comments to one woman or another. If men could just put themselves in the woman's place, they might realise how idiotic they're being.
Ha! I'm going to do one on what women have told me! ;)
Futhermucking hilarious!
Love it!!
Hope you are being kind to you and having some fun loving times xx
what a voice on that Florence huh?
Oh Helen, we really should do a huge collaboration on this and make a book. People... What a bunch of bastards.
