When will women understand.?

Sure, everybody needs to feel like someone cares about them when they're sick (or healthy for that matter). If a girl doesn't want to give that, she shouldn't expect it when she needs it.

 

true words. i've never been coddled when i was sick. i'd have a 104 temperature and my mother would still be riding my ass to clean the house. one time i was having some freaky convulsions out of the blue on my bedroom floor one night. couldn't breathe past a pant and all my chest muscles were contracting HARD and it hurt like hell. my mother came in, looked at me on the floor, shut the door, went back to drinking in the kitchen. later she sent my brother to check on me, he said "you okay?" i gasped "i can't breathe" and then he left. so for a couple of hours i was on my floor panting like a womanin labor. the next morning i drove myself to the doctor. he had no idea what happened, gave me some potassium supplements. never happened again.

that's just an example. we don't get that lovey dovey coddling shit. i'm pretty good at coddlig my baby a bit, though.

 

KC, that's terrible. You poor thing. Everyone needs some cuddlin when they don't feel well. She just left you there on the floor? That pisses me off.

That was really funny. "just lay down and get it over with." Sound like my dh, sometimes. "Just lie down and get it over with....." Oh, we were talking about a cold.....

 

yeah, mom wasn't much of a nuturer. when i turned 19 i started forcing her to let me hug her.

 

Poor dear. The thread starter does speak some truth. No, he wasn't being utterly serious. I had to chuckle reading the first page. Men sometimes turn into a puddle of goo when they're sick, and come on, admit it, you'll do anything to get some sympathy from your girlfriend when the bug hits! If there's one time where some serious ribbing won't do any good, it's now. I can't resist giving into his whims when he's in that state.

Ahem. Not all, naturally.

 

My dude is really annoyed at being sick, really pretty pissed off, he really doesn't like to be bothered, but because I love to be nurtured when I'm sick, I can't help but do that to him when he's sick, I try not to go too overboard, but his sick (at least when it's a cold or flu) is about 10x easier than my cold or flu.

 

(((((((((((((KC)))))))))))))

A cyberhug from me. Sorry it isn't the real thing.

 

i get along great with my mother now. she's a peach. she just went through some extremely hard times. it wasn't pretty. but i like me now, though i have to confess, i don't a lotta mothering experience to draw on. but i was loved, insofar as she knew how.

 

nah no way I am such a freaking whiner that my cold will always be the worse one. I could be with the damn bubble boy on his death bed because the cold is going to kill his immune system and I will cry because my nose is running

 

I think you need to stop bein' a little bitch.

 

Talk about a non substance picture, that is goofy.

 

girls dont get as bad as guys?
thats cheap

 

hey Ill agree that when Im sick Ima little baby,
my wife can get sick and do shit around the house....
not me I sit there and whine....

Ive heard teh same from others guys...mayeb there is something to it

 

Both genders have their issues. Women have to worry about the pain of giving birth, while we men need to worry about being hit on the balls. And as we all know, it's an undescribable pain that I haven't wished on anyone so far.

 

LdyNimue's Cold Remedy

--drop one lemon slice in the bottom of a cup
--drizzle honey over it
--add 1 1/2 oz. of bourbon
--fill the rest of the cup with steaming hot water
--let sit about 2min
Then take it to bed, get under the covers & drink it down. It's like being wrapped up in a big hug. It helps when you can't have the real thing.

 

MEN MEN MEN we women love to hate them and love to leave the old one as bad as the new one. When will guys with colds stop acting like babies n just ask for some Tender Loving Care???

 

LOL

 

Ok, lets talk about something interesting now.

 

They will understand the first time you push that baby out your womb lol.

 

Why would a mans cold be worse then a females. Aren't we both human.
