I just don't get it...

The only time i decide to go to a pub after a LOONNG while (at some convention center)... only to find that the crowd there was BAD (or has it always been this way) and a really sucky band playing, where the singer can't sing for nutz, and the drummer, OH GAWD, someone pass the super glue please... i mean, people should just stick to what they are good at and not venture into the 'unknown'. *sticks the 3m ear plugs in* Was there with my good friend, J and he was totally irritable with the singing and commented that half of the crowd literally left cos of that! I guess the only saving grace was that of the wine.

Don't worry... i'm not at all drunk. We only had 2 drinks! OK anyway, the point to this entry is that, i don't get this... I have quite a few guy friends and they all tend to fall into this category of men. They are successful in their own right, they have a gf... but when it comes to sharing their thoughts/woes, they swing towards me and pour out their woes. I hear them out and at times drop them pieces of advice, and they instantly feel better. I'm like their "Aunt Agony"! Ok fine, i take this as a compliment. But what i don't get is why do they confide in me as opposed to their own gfs, who are generally suppose to be their soulmates? Confidante? I mean if they find it hard to even share their thoughts with them, or life's troubles, then what's the point of being together with them in a r/s? Makes sense right?

Maybe i should start a "Dear Lara" column and make some money out of it? I've been far too generous with my advices. :D

Women often tell themselves that they need to keep some secrets from their men. Well, that applies to men too. Hard to believe but true. There are certain things that woman should never find out about men. For instance, you don't need to know about the hot girl who works at your man's office, and your man don't want you to know that he cried like real baby for a week after his ex dumped him flat out. I'm sure there are more examples...

There's a need to maintain some leverage in your relationship. And as soon as one's girlfriend has all the goods on the men or vice versa, the power distribution will have shifted dramatically. Keeping some information to oneself might help keep her/him honest, and it saves from the risk of mindsets which might jeopardise the relationship.

This is the truth about men.
