    Sadly, this is so true…

    • kebukai says:

      that’s not true! i didn’t smoke in the first place

    • miss riddle says:

      I’ve seen more males do this to their girlfriends than I have girls do this to their boyfriends.

      My ex actually pulled something very similar to this. He fussed about my clothes, my hair, the way I ‘presented’ myself and THEN complained that I ‘wasn’t the same person’. Good god.

      • MyPasswordisBanana says:

        that is because you are a woman, you don’t notice yourself doing it because they are your people.

        • miss riddle says:

          Nah, I’m pretty sure that I’m aware of my own actions. I’ve never requested that a boyfriend change a style of dress, his hair, or a habit I didn’t like.

          That said, I’ve dated girls myself and I’ve never had one pull this on me.

          BUT it is true that I am relying on observational data, and observational data is never really ‘proof’ one way or another. One would have to do an official study of sorts to prove this.

          • df says:

            You are no girl. You don’t say … like

          • Glun says:

            Minor disagreements and edgy observations put down to what they truly are in a sensible way of peaceful explanation?
            I love you!
            There is hope for the internet yet!

          • Johnny Middle Aged Divorcee says:

            I don’t what business a serious reply has here…but you Miss Riddle are truly a work of art. I wish I would have met you 20 years ago instead of the godzilla-disguised-as-cool-punk-rock-girl I married and now have to divorce. (long story involving her being an adulterer and flaming yuckypants of wheels) This meme is dead on-at least personally for me. Now I am busy stripping away layers of douche-baggery to hopefully reveal what’s left of the forever-alone guy inside. sob sob sob. thanks for the comment, that made my day, week, and month so far.

            • miss riddle says:

              I think that was a compliment? Thank you. : D

              I’m sorry that your marriage didn’t work out and I wish you luck in the future. I’m sure there’s a nice girl out there that will be perfect for you. Nice girls may be few and far between, but we do exist. ; )

            • seren says:

              Lol, she a dope, you a brown nose.

          • MyPasswordisBanana says:

            You dated girls?
            …lets be friends!

            • miss riddle says:

              Hahah YAY new friends!

              But yes, I have dated girls. I think I actually had more luck in those relationships.

              • Katie says:

                Haha! Yeah, I know right? Not trying to sound dumb but I think it’s because girls understand what girls like and want to do. Granted, not every girl is the same but you get the gist.

      • MaxArt says:

        Actually, I never said that the opposite doesn’t happen.

    • Cecil says:

      Female IRL.
      And you still pander to them like they were a divine species.

  2. Lord Muck says:

    Fairer sex my arse.

  3. Svenn says:

    sure it is

  4. Shadowhumper says:

    That pretty much sums up how your love life i going to be if you’re this kind of sucker.

  5. sigh says:

    That day of the month again?

  6. Jim says:

    My girlfriend tries to turn me into a douchebag. She bought me skinny jeans the other day. *Rage face*

  7. richardkaplanatfedex says:

    too true. hopefully you learn early on, everyone…

  8. Kintaro Oe says:

    That meme girl is so damn hot. What a pity that its only a meme.

  9. asdflol says:

    isn’t it supposed to be !!!!4!! ?

  10. Blaze says:

    This.

    Women subconsciously try to change you, and then if you do what they went they realize you’re not the man they fell in love with anymore.

    Yes, this is rage because it’s kind of happening to me at the moment.

    • kebukai says:

      what’s worse is they don’t even remember it was their doing which changed you

      • Blaze says:

        And if they do, they find a way to blame it all on you.

        It’s silly, I tell you!

        • Lexy says:

          Dump her, she shouldn’t try to change you.

        • Cecil says:

          Well, it is is his fault that she changed him into something she didn’t want. Same as it would have been his fault had he not changed.

        • teatime of death says:

          It is, all though as a girl, I’ll just say we’re not all like that.

          • Hahaha says:

            Whales have nothing to do with it, they don’t usually have these kind of problems.

            It’s those types of girls who copy and paste those “Boy & Girl” stories where the guy is absolutely perfect and says everything right, or ends up failing because he “didn’t love her enough” (Turn around, my better looking friend is behind you. -turn around- LOL U FAILED IF YOU REALLY LOVED ME YOU WOULDN’T LOOK)

    • Spatula says:

      cool story bro

  11. nfitc1 says:

    Reminds me of “Highly Illogical” from Dr Demento. :)

  12. Whatever says:

    Isn’t that John Cusack?

  13. gigi says:

    As a woman, I find it so funny when some of my guy friends complain to me about their girlfriends trying to change them. I always tell them it’s their own damn fault! That’s what happens when you choose to date a girl only because of her physical attributes, without taking her personality into consideration (e.g. the fact that she’s a head case).
    Men usually go for women who are intellectually inferior to them and who have enough free time on their hands to cater to their partner’s every whim. This is the kind of woman who will end up trying to change her partner (simply because she’s bored).
    A woman who is intelligent and who has a career and a social life outside her romantic relationship will never try to change her man because she has other matters to tend to. However, this is the kind of woman most men don’t want to get romantically involved with (and I say “most” because, bless their hearts, there are still some real men left on this planet).

    • supermonday says:

      TL;DR

    • EvilDave says:

      You, I mean She, also has no time for a man and the relationship dies before it starts. Then, you complain that the guy dropped you for someone who has time for him, how this always happens to you and you can’t figure out why, and how he wasn’t that good of a boyfriend anyway because he wasn’t at your beck and call.

      And, judging from your post, I am guessing you are either overweight and/or ugly and the perpetual friend and don’t understand why. Well, the reason is not that you are ugly or overweight; the reason is your personality and the fact that you have no time for him and in no way need to have someone else there to be a partner and make your life better or happier because then you wouldn’t be the whole and complete woman you think you are supposed to be.

    • OtherPeople says:

      Ha ha ha. Good one. ‘A woman who is intelligent … will never change her man.’ Yeah right. Translation: I have a degree and that makes me better than everyone else. Reality: you will ask your guy to do something he doesn’t want, wear something he doesn’t wear, listen to music he doesn’t like. You may tell his job isn’t good enough, his car isn’t good enough, and that you are embarrassed of him because of the video games he plays and movies he likes.

      The key to a good relationship: don’t think that you don’t do this, just be understanding when he says no. You shouldn’t be afraid to share you’re feelings with him, just don’t be upset when he disagrees with you. Its the guilt trip most people put on their partners that drives relationships apart.

      • gigi says:

        Excuse me, Mr. Psychologist! I was not aware that you were an expert on the behaviour of EVERY SINGLE WOMAN ON THE PLANET.

        • beendip45 says:

          then why would you crabbng try to classify every man in the world i.e. and i quote “men usually go for women who are intellectually inferior to them”
          you are a hypocrite for trying to put men down and then when someone comes back with a logical argument you get indignant. also saying that you say most men for a reason doesn’t do jack shrimp because you are just trying to not talk about them.

        • Heather says:

          Otherpeople is right, and before you even say it Gigi, I am a girl. I’m still with my highschool sweetheart as well, but just having a social life outside of a relationship isn’t all there is to it, and its not always needed.
          So he may seem to be spouting bullshrimp to you, but its the truth.

        • giggalicous says:

          Translation: I have a degree and that makes me better than everyone else.

        • Dr. Of Everything says:

          I’m sure OtherPeople forgives you. I’ve had to explain to enough people like you exactly what a doctorate in the universe qualifies me to do. The road we have chosen in life has more than its fair share of bumps.

    • Khan Noonien Singh says:

      “Men usually go for women who are intellectually inferior to them.”

      Hon, we don’t have a choice!

    • fablicful says:

      I agree with you! Yes, I mean, obviously people are all different.. but yes, guys like complaining about women– but also how women complain about men… I mean, women wanting to be with “the bad boy” then, wanting to “change” them.. and the guys wanting to be with “broken/ weak” women– to seem “tough” and/or “protect” the girl.. etc etc. Guys want girls that will think being with him– “makes them complete”– and vis versa.. like.. treating the partner as supplementary to their entire person/ personality, instead of complementary~~

    • jamisings says:

      Well, in my mom’s case, she had good reasons to change my dad. He was your stereotypical cheapskate New Englander who owned two suits and took a bath every three days. She made sure he had a bunch of different clothes and bathed daily.

      But you know, if a girl doesn’t like certain things, like smoking, she shouldn’t date a smoker in the first place.

    • Shipoopi says:

      tl;dr

    • Larva Lamp says:

      Girls like you make Sharia Law look reasonable.

  14. Rae says:

    My gf made me cut off my jewfro :’(

  15. Agron says:

    I had long hair and wanted to shorten it a bit. My gf said she´ll leave me if I cut it. Now I have very short hair, still my balls and my gf :)
    But it´s kinda true sadly.

  16. miaw says:

    It’s funny how sacrifice and compromise are usually a one way street. They ALLWAYS try to change you. The last one thought that she was more important than me mates (who I’ve known since kindergarten) and demanded that the 4 days a month that I spend with them was too much. Shark was she wrong.

    XD

  17. Veyne says:

    It’s actually quite simple – if your girlfriend tries to change you, don’t change. At least not for a very long time. Chances are, she’s an investors. Investors try to “fix” the problems with their guys, once they accomplish this, the investor will often lose interest.

  18. derp says:

    that is crap, I don’t know how to rate it. i know it’s true, but it sucks for him.

  19. mar16cris says:

    that’s a foolinesh, if a woman wants to be with you why you should change for her?, relations are about love, respect and tolerance, its most stupid thant the girl who likes to be with the douchebag guy and doesnt is treat like it must….

    in short words, if someone feels like the comic, what a fool….broke up with her…..

  20. Seth says:

    This guy must have studied wimmens extensively because this is the most accurate portrayal of a relationship I have ever witnessed. AND THE NOBEL PRIZE GOES TO…

  21. Nash says:

    If you let other people change you just to please them you aren’t all that cool to begin with. Then it’s just a facade. Remove that, and it’s just another normal person underneath.

    I get unsolicited fashion advice all the time, as people feel compelled to tell me how they think I should look. I ignore them.

    I’m not saying how you look is what’s important, mind you, I’m saying that what matters is standing up for yourself and not bowing to peer pressure or norms. What you wear is only a small part of that.

  22. wat says:

    Women: Nothing but trouble since getting rights.

  23. Grin says:

    Oh, us poor, poor men. You’re right. Curse our penises. We are so repressed.

  24. MrSharp says:

    As soon as you get married this happens, it happens to us all… That’s why you see old farts riding Harleys and driving Vetts

  25. saintdevil says:

    Or maybe it’s a trap devious females use to find out if the guy they’re dating is a loser who will change his style and personality for another person.

    Weeding out the weaklings -> evolution.

  26. desu says:

    Just keep your tuna in kitchen and have her make sammiches.
    Problem solved.

  27. Alex says:

    Maybe she’s trolling him. Because obviously that guy has no balls. I mean, come on, who would put up with that?

    • patriek says:

      any guy who actually loves a girl and would do anything for her.

      • Alex says:

        I love my BF but if he tried to change me, I would leave. It’s not that hard to have some self-respect.

      • miss riddle says:

        No, that’s not how love works. As Alex said, I love my fiance, but I would not change for him. If he tried to change me as a person, I would leave him. If he actually loves ME he will not do such a thing.

        • neoritter says:

          It’s a two way street. Didn’t Oprah say something about coaching your men?

          • Alex says:

            Maybe? Who knows, are we supposed to watch Oprah for all our relationship advice? (That’s a nice way to self-destruct right there)

            I don’t ask anything of my BF that would not like if someone asked of me. Heck, he’s not even ‘my type’ as far as style goes (I refer to such labels as prep, punk, goth, et cetera), but I like who he is beyond all that.

            If *he* made the decision to change for me, without any provocation from my part other than when I say stuff like “Guys with piercings are hot”, that would be nice. But I do not want someone who I can give commands to. That’s what I have a dog for.

            (Think about how many times you’ve asked a girl what she wants, during an argument, and she says something like “Flowers would be nice” and then you say “Okay I’ll get you some flowers” and then she says “WTF it doesn’t count if you get them because I tell you to. YOU have to WANT to do it.” )

            • ben says:

              wow. the inner workings of the female mind. hey, i give you credit for admitting that you know you don’t make any sense.

            • ghtabs says:

              I think the real issue here is that women date guys that they view as inferior to them(uglier, less intelligent, less cultured etc. ) and think that they can change/improve them and after trying everything(different clothes, making them listen to different music… ) they just dumb them saying something moronic/female like “you are not the man i fell in love with”

            • Justice says:

              Yeah, well, men compartmentalize. Women get PISSED when their men don’t do something sweet for them at a random time without any rhyme or reason.

              The relationship is EVERYTHING to a woman. The relationship is PART of the man’s brain. Women often don’t get what they want because they hide their thoughts, keep it at the front of their mind for weeks, then explode when we can’t read their minds. Women don’t give subtle cues. They give NO clues.

              Trust me, me and my fiancee have been through this quite a bit. I kept telling her these things but she never got me… until one day she listened to a relationship podcast in which a marriage counselor not only said the exact same things, but virtually word for word what I was telling her.

          • Liz says:

            This is why I have never watched Oprah–I think she’s full of it. :( Maybe culture and these stupid shows are part of why other women think they can do this to people?

            It’s better to cheer-lead for your man than to coach him. Celebrate his strengths with him. I really think a man thrives when he sees that his gal appreciates who he is and what his talents are. I’ve been with the same guy since 2006, and he’s still the guy he was when I met him. :)

          • miss riddle says:

            I don’t watch Oprah and have no clue what she said.

            However, yes, it’s a two-way street–neither partner should expect the other to change. It’s okay to point out, say, a small habit that gets on your nerves, but it’s another thing to FORCE the said person to get rid of said habit.

            If you don’t like the person you are dating, why the hell are you dating them in the first place? Why would you be with someone that you can’t accept? That doesn’t make any sense to me.

            I don’t think anyone should try to ‘train’ anyone else.

        • Cecil says:

          Double standard anyone?
          That’s not how it works if you’re a woman.
          If you have a penis then 1.)You have a built in giver ego. 2.) Every voice in the world tells you that having self respect is tantamount to abuse.

          If she actually loved HIM you wouldn’t try to change him…oh wait dived by zero there.
          How is it that her changing him is now his fault for having no self respect or balls?

          • Alex says:

            I’m truly sorry that you have never had a decent relationship before. They do exist. It does happen. But if it doesn’t… all you have to look at is the common denominator (which, for the slow at play here, would be you).

  28. DLZ says:

    Chin up guys. If she can’t accept you for who you are then she doesn’t deserve you.

    • Nash says:

      Pretty much. Too bad there’s so much pressure from society to pair up in twos and go forth and multiply. Sadly, many people can’t seem to resist that pressure. So they don’t pick someone they like, they pick whatever’s handy and try to change it into what they like.

      You’ll never find a soul mate, but that doesn’t mean you have to settle for a nemesis. You might find someone who’s good enough. And if not, well, I would rather be single my whole life than spend it with someone who doesn’t even like me.

  29. Generic person says:

    Someone’s bitter.

  30. miss riddle says:

    I think the genders should be switched in this comic. I’m pretty sure males are more prone to do this to their girlfriends.

    • Agron says:

      That’s what she said!
      No, for real, most of the “nice guys” are just happy to have a girlfriend and if the gf wants him to change he changes. I’m not talking about the sophistic oysters. But that´s exactly the way it happens

      • ben says:

        hahahaha. where you from bro? the nice guy doesn’t get the girlfriend. he sits in the corner of the bar, listening to women piss and moan about there not being any nice guys out there.

        • saylo says:

          But being a nice guy is hardly the problem. Being a wuss that can’t stand up for himself might be it though.

        • ghtabs says:

          true.

          also the only guys that think they are the exception to this rule don’t see what huge a**holes they are.

        • miss riddle says:

          Sounds like you might have a case of nice guy syndrome, Ben.

          I’ve learned that the self-proclained ‘nice guys’ are usually not nice at all. : (

          • ben says:

            *shrugs* if you’re going around proclaiming that you’re a nice guy, you deserve to sit in the corner by yourself. i have played both positions and can say without any doubt that women prefer the a-hole every single time. it’s not in my dna, unfortunately. i wish i could be that guy, i really do. but i suppose i’m a bit in the middle. i treat a woman with respect but i don’t let her walk all over me and i call her out on her JELLYFISH. ;)

      • miss riddle says:

        See, the same could be said for females. There’s a lot of females that are ‘just happy’ to have a boyfriend. I’ve known plenty of females who will change themselves (and even put up with abuse) just to keep their boyfriend. Of course, when females do this, they are usually blamed for staying with the guy. When men change themselves for females, they are praised for being ‘nice guys’ and the female is…still blamed. Weird.

        I was pretty insecure in high school and I ‘changed’ for a boy for awhile simply because I was happy to have a boyfriend and I was afraid of losing him and being alone.

        • Agron says:

          How about we agree that the comic is true for both genders equally? I think there is no big difference there, both genders try to change the other and it´s not just onesided. Mostly the nice people (not only the wuss) I know changed in a relationship. And it´s not true only the girls get blamed if they change. There is a great concept of the men as the leaders and to be strong, so they get told they have no balls and so on. If they are told `nice guys´ they have been that already. And it is not true that nice guys don´t get gfs. It´s just harder for them. They have also their time when women get in the age they want a family their first choice is mostly not the badassed gangster or punk if you get my point.

          • miss riddle says:

            Yes, as I said above, I’m relying on purely observational data for my claims and we all know that’s not scientific.

            I can agree that both genders pull this on the other. I guess we’re all nasty. : (

            • Agron says:

              Therefore I disagree. We are not ALL nasty. Just the people that pull off something like that ;)
              I don´t think that you are nasty in that way, considering what you said.

  31. gelatin skeleton says:

    How far is a man willing to go to be in a relationship with you? Would he change his looks? His social habits? Would he violate his personality, integrity and sense of self?

    The willingness to do that for a woman is no more noble than the willingness to do that for a sum of money. It’s a desperation which indicates lack of character. The same traits that would make a man go that far for his woman would be those which would make him take equally desperate action for another woman. If you think this modularity makes for a perfect boyfriend your “perfect boyfriend” traits are the same which make a man a horrible creep and a stalker.

  32. BlueSkittle says:

    OMG the guy in the blue shirt is Carlton Banks from Fresh Prince!

  33. Jai says:

    Grow a pair.

  34. Ajay says:

    I saw this before… and maybe he should shrimping grow some balls

  35. Persona of the hive mind says:

    k

  36. aibohphobia says:

    Or you could all find girlfriends that actually MERMAIDING like you the way you are. [ this post has been pre-modded ]

  37. ben says:

    what baffles me about cosmo and the like is that women KNOW they’re full of Bathypterois grallator (feel free to steal that one, mods) but they still read them and adhere to their absolutely inane advice. if i’m a man trying to understand a woman, i’m not going to ask another man for advice! much less a man that has absolutely no idea what’s he’s talking about when it comes to anything!

  38. Iz says:

    Yup, This sums up my situations with girlfriends.
    Oh you need to change this, this and this, I wont change anything about myself because I’m sooooooo perfect.
    OHMYGOSH YOU CHANGED SO MUCH, WE’RE LYK THROUGH BECUZ LYK IM A RETARD.
    Etc.
    Yes. I mad bro.

  39. Supurbia says:

    Kind of sad that the only comment I have is “That’s probably a Carlton pic in that last panel.”

  40. slaggingham says:

    My girlfriend did this to me…

    She tried to make me into a decent, non-snarky, moral, kind, caring human being.

    Stupid [GOBLINFISH].

  41. thereisasheeponmycupcake says:

    Dear lord. I am a female and this is why I hate my gender.

    If you want to date someone who is kind and compassionate and crap, find a guy like that.

    Don’t try to change an awesome snarky motherflounder who anonymously gifts peta activists wolf pelts into a compassionate narwhal

    • dude says:

      this! if only more women were like you, but seriously, you know someone who gifts wolf pelts to peta activists?

  42. captain Smuggles says:

    ohhhhhhh how true……..my girl tries to do this to me and she fails. im the most stubborn person ever. she wont change me ;)

    • CSpannerz says:

      Take up smoking, see if that pushes the boundaries open further. ;D

      • miss riddle says:

        Man, that’s the one thing my otherwise wonderful fiance IS trying to change about me. He does not like my casual smoking. Pity.

        • Dingetje says:

          Maybe that’s because smoking is the most stupid thing in the world. It shrimping stinks, it’s eeling unhealthy and even more unhealthy for people around you. Oh, and let’s not forget how unbelievable EXPENSIVE it is. So I hope you’re smoking from your own money, and not his.

          • miss riddle says:

            Yes, because obvioulsy, as a woman, I have no money of my own. Would you even make such an assumption if a man posted the same thing? Would you? I doubt you’d ask him if he was using his girlfriend’s money to smoke. Good god.

            That said, I think you missed the ‘casual’ part of my post. It’s not that expensive when you only go through a pack every two weeks, my friend. I never smell like smoke, nor does my apartment, as I hate the heavy smoke smell and smoke my occasional cigs outside.

            I know it’s unhealthy, but as it’s one of my only unhealthy habits, I really wish he would lay off. I don’t get mad at him for eating fast food. :S

              And if you didn’t get this from my post–yes, I use my own godsquid money.

            • dude says:

              most women i’ve ever heard of use their husbands credit card or try to get money from a man by sueing him for reap even though he didn’t, so i would assume you smoked his money away

              • Mary says:

                Yeah, and most guys get their muscles from beating their wives, right?

                Assumptions are fun! :D

              • miss riddle says:

                That assumption doesn’t even make sense. I don’t know one woman that relies on her boyfriend’s/fiance’s/husband’s credit card. Women have these things called ‘jobs’ now, you know.

        i cant do that. neither of us smoke and im not about to start.

    Thank you.

    I thought the cigarette was in the guy’s nose at first. And then I realized that I am crazy, because I saw nothing wrong with that, at all.

  46. troller says:

    first

    Wait… what is your gf doing out of the kitchen?

  48. Whoa…. I just blogged about this. Like this morning too.

    GET OUT OF MAH HEAD!!!!

    But yeah, totally true.

  49. Lezbeau says:

    LOL my god, you are all a bunch of babies, aren´t you? Shrimp, men are so motherconching uninteresting.

  50. CSpannerz says:

    This is so true. xD Probably why some men turn gay :D

    • dude says:

      you don’t turn gay, you’re born gay, some men just know not to start anything with a woman before ever leaving the womb

  51. miss riddle says:

    Ah, the old ‘thin women/small-breasted women aren’t women!’ routine. Classic.

    Anyway, do you mine telling me what women’s magazines you are talking about? I’m honestly curious. The women’s magazines that I have seen always seem to instruct females on how to please their MAN. I can’t tell you how many articles there are that instruct WOMEN on how to stop their man from cheating or tell them how better please them in bed. Where are the magazines that treat men as fix-it projects?

    • Dingetje says:

      Too bad he’s just talking about the magazines. He should be talking about everything in the world.

      I mean, whenever you’re watching TV, it all comes down to one sharking thing: superskinny

      • EvilDave says:

        Hmm, try watching TV and looking at the way men are portrayed. Hell, look at “two and half men”: A drunken, selfish, manipulating, mean, womanizing, rich, incredibly lucky, and completely messed up man-child who needs a good woman to fix him; a whining, effeminate, broke loser man-child who dates and marries his brother’s throw-away sluts in an attempt to validate his life by being there and helping them fix their lives; and a young, slovenly, cluelessly idiotic eating machine.

        Men are portrayed as either self-serving, manipulative, often incompetent, evil asses or as fat, incompetent, childish slobs.

        In every commercial not aimed specifically at men, men are portrayed as incompetent in everything, including things men are usually interested in and good at. Old Spice, a product for men, made a commercial aimed at women that said “Look at you guy. He is a loser and not as good as this spokesman. But, if you buy him this product at least he will smell like this spokesman.” It was a funny commercial but that is the message.

        Here is an exercise for you to do: Go out to a Hallmark card shop and look at the “humorous” cards designed to be sent from women to women. Look at how men are portrayed. Then, ask yourself “What would be the reaction to this card if it were about women and intended to be sent between men?”

      • miss riddle says:

        I think you need to remove the ‘super’ from that claim. The media prefers a thin average and dislikes super skinny women. How many actresses got shrimp for being ‘too thin’? How many times is a model called a ‘skeleton’ or told to eat a sandwich? I’ve been on both sides of the spectrum (too thin and too large) and I’ve received far more negativity for being too thin.

        It’s not fun being on either side of the media’s ‘perfect’ image.

    • Dingetje says:

      Too bad he’s just talking about the magazines. He should be talking about everything in the world.

      I mean, whenever you’re watching TV, it all comes down to one sharking thing: superskinny women. I hate it when women look like a pencil, and cry about how they gained 0.5 kg. I mean, what the hell. Most of my girlfriends, who I actually loved, weren’t skinny at all. The walking pencils should realize that men don’t only like skinniness, but – and I’m talking about the GOOD men – like how they are.

      Not saying I’m a good man, but whenever I have a girlfriend, I must be able to laugh with her. Be myself with her. Be able to be with er and my friends at the same time, without getting the feeling I’m losing her. Not be able to say to my friends “look how skinny she is. Yeah dude, I’m cool huh”.

      • miss riddle says:

        You’re kidding me, right? I guess my fiance isn’t a ‘good man’ since he’s with such a skinny woman.

        This is exactly what I mean about this ‘real woman’ crap. Knock it off. Weight has nothing to do with it. There’s nothing wrong with being thin and there’s nothing wrong with not being thin.

        • Corcoran says:

          He never said that, stop twisting the words of others. He’s talking about how he hates it when women are twigs and are still trying to lose weight.

    • EvilDave says:

      No, it is the “Stop being 20lbs underweight because some stupid magazine is filled with pictures of women who live on coffee, cigarettes, and a cup of yogurt ever 5 days” routine.

      And, I have seen those articles, too. And, they are usually right before or after an article about how to get him to change.

    The Taming of the Shrew comes to mind, just with reversed sexes in this particular case.
    Really it happens both ways, it’s just that it’s somehow “normal” for the girl to change- so that when it happens, it’s not worth pointing out. A lot of these changes are taken for granted, too.

    A lot of times, the guy doesn’t ask, but the girl changes to what she THINKS he wants. This is not always correct.
    Men typically don’t change this way, which is why the girl will oftentimes ask…
    If he doesn’t change the major issues, she’ll leave. But if he gives in to every petty whim, he shows himself to have too weak a character.

    Of course, I only speak for my own experience and observation, as has everyone else here.

    • Glun says:

      Amazing. Some very interesting philosophies have appeared under this meme. Hah! It gets very easy to pick out the sincere people and the know-it-alls in cases like this.
      I’m loving it.

      +2 internets to you, sir Potassium, and +1 to anyone clever enough to have added the humbling fact that they have acted upon observations only before this point.

      Woo!

  54. spivy says:

    When a relationship starts, women want to change the guys and the guys want the women to stay the same, but they always change, and guys never do… WTF???

  55. freshmint says:

    I like my men just like my pets: domesticated.

    yea b*tches

  56. Diglett says:

    This is why there is a saying “bros before hos”.
    Your bros don’t do this shrimp to you, they’re friends with you ‘cos of who you are, and if they do this shrimp to you, you’ll easily kick their asses out of your brotherhood, ‘cos people don’t crave for friendship as much as they do for love.

    Lovers, on the other hand, are just very unpredictable. Probably because both sides expect to fall in love and be in love in a short time without being friends first or without trying to know each other for months.

    Most of the time when you fall in love, you’ll find things like this happening, especially when the other person figured out your way of life. lol

    Alright ladies, here’ how the male mind works. It’s fairly simple, in that it functions like a calculator.
    Let’s say you want something out of your man but give no hints as to what it is. His thought process from here will be something like this:

    1.) She wants something from me, what is it?
    >unknown
    2.)Ask her what she wants.
    -response from female is along the lines of, “Anything’s fine.”
    >all possibilties have an equal chance of failure due to vague parameters
    >>remain neutral, do nothing. Penalty for doing nothing<penalty for incorrect guess
    3.)Get in trouble, have minor fight.
    4.)Repeat.

    • Male Brain says:

      String appearance;
      Human you;
      if(int i = 1; i> 0;i++){
      While(appearance = appearance){
      >System.out.print(You + “will have a major fight”)
      }
      if else{
      appearance = appearance + 1;
      // try something new
      }
      }
      //for you non-programmers, I’m essentially stating that you will continually change your appearance until eventually you keep it the same and have a big fight

    A) My EX-wife did this exact shite with me over 8 years together and B) I’ll never get married again! Horsecrap! I mean who are YOU to say “if you don’t quit smoking cigs we’re not getting married” (I didn’t quit), “if you don’t stop smoking weed I’m going to leave you” (so I quit), “we’re not having kids until you stop smoking cigs” (I asked for a divorce).

    If certain things bother you about someone NEVER think “oh I’ll change him/her soon enough” because A) that’s bullsquid and B) It’s not your business to change someone, either love them for who they are or move the ‘F’ on dude. “It’s not that some people have willpower and some don’t. It’s that some people are ready to change and others are not.” – James Gordon, M.D.

    • Male Brain says:

      considering non-medical marijuana is illegal, I’m pretty sure you are also to blame

        Who gives a horse radish on what’s legal? It’s a weed it’s not like that guy capped somebody with it and cuttlefish

    Well, this one hit home.

  62. John Palomo says:

    its sad but true, women try to change men so much to the point where their just uninterested, almost happened to me once. but i change when i want to change, i dont need some girl telling me what i can and cant do.

    a relationship isnt that important

  63. naraman says:

    I have changed for someone before. And it was not out of lack of character or fear of being left. I did it because I actually cared about her and because my petty habits or what I wear do not make who I am. Maybe a lack of character from everyone involved shows why this is even an issue?

  64. Sean Collins says:

    Sounds exactly what happened to me and my ex except for the smoking part, oh yeh btw I don’t love you anymore bye!

  65. Hahaha says:

    See. Here’s the thing. If the guy changes into a douchebag because his girlfriend said so, instead of standing up for himself and being himself, isn’t he a douchebag who is not worth mentioning in the first place? It’s a two-way street. Women try and change you and you gotta be a pansy to let them.

  66. EpicFishFingers says:

    Seen this one before, and the original was better. Not a bad remake though

    Someone knows my ex wife…
