My DH just sent this to me. It made me laugh!!!

The Guys' Rules

At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down
Finally, the guys' side of the story.
(I must admit, it's pretty good.)
We always hear "the rules"
from the female side.
Now here are the rules from the male side.
These are our rules!
Please note... these are all numbered "1"
ON PURPOSE!

1. Learn to work the toilet seat.
You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down.
We need it up, you need it down.
You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

1. Sunday sports.
It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.

1. Shopping is NOT a sport.
And no, we are never going to think of it that way.

1. Crying is blackmail.

1. Ask for what you want.
Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!

1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's
what
we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.

1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In
fact,
all comments become null and void after 7 days.

1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls,
don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.

1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways
makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.

1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during
commercials.

1. Christopher Columbus did not need directions and neither do we.

1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach,
or example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no
idea
what mauve is.

1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we will act like
nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the
hassle.

1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to,
expect an answer you don't want to hear.

1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is
fine...Really.

1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are
prepared to discuss such topics as baseball, the shotgun formation, or
monster trucks.

1. You have enough clothes.

1. You have too many shoes.

1. I am in shape. Round is a shape.

1. Thank you for reading this.
Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; but did you know men
really don't mind that? It's like camping.
Pass this to as many men as you can - to give them a laugh. Pass this to
as many women as you can - to give them a bigger laugh

In the same sort of vein, I wrote this to a friend of mine who was wondering how to get the guy she likes to know that she likes him in THAT way:p

"Men don't get non-verbal signals unless you smack them in the head. They're just not good at picking up on stuff like that unless they already know you really well, and sometimes not even then. You're not obtuse, but perhaps he is being. Perhaps you should invite him over for dinner and have candles and wine or martinis, or wine AND martinis. Wear something low cut. Drop an olive down your top and have him help you retrieve it. Bend over in front of him a lot. Find reasons to grind up against things. Eat bananas in front of him. Eat things that you can lick off spoons. He'll get it eventually:p"
 
Shelley, that movie is hysterical. Reese try's to show her newfound friend to be more of a go-getter (her friend has the hots for the UPS man but is too shy to speak up) and she shows the girl moves to get his attention. Sounds just like what you described. How funny!

Sorry Dani,for the hijack!
