Dear men: I am sorry.

10 Thoughts Every Man Has While Shopping With A Woman
The Huffington Post

Men seem to shop with only one objective in mind and tend to stick with that.

Let's take Bob for example. Bob has been using the same worn out wallet since high school and has finally decided to get a new one. Bob enters the store and realizes the wallet selection is towards the back. Bob then walks to the back and takes about 5 minutes to pick one he likes. It so happens that it's on sale, too. Bob is happy! He then walks over to the register, purchases the wallet, and exits. Simple.

On the other hand, his wife Sally is a different story.

Sally wants to buy a new bag because out of the 10 that she already owns, one does not "go with" her new outfit. Sally enters the mall through a big department store, browses, and actually finds a purse that actually would go well with her new outfit. Wow! That was easy, right?

Uh oh, Sally realized she was forgetting to check the price tags. The purse is out of her price range, so she places it down and tries a different store.

On her way to a different store, she spies that a jewelry kiosk is having half off on one of their selections. She stops, stares into the glass case for about 20 minutes, and purchases a few pieces. She made herself feel better by saying it will be good to wear at her friend's wedding. Her friend got engaged last week.

Long story short, after many steps calculated on her Fitbit, Sally ended up spending $200 during her mall trip.

Did she end up finding a new bag? No. She said she's trying a different location tomorrow with her husband.

Poor Bob. Imagine the pain he will be going though?


This one is for all the men out there who stick through the never-ending shopping trips with their ladies. Congrats, you're a good dude. I hope this can be some type of relatable comic-relief for you.

1. "Wait, why are we here in the first place? Didn't we just come here for shoes?"


2. "My legs are killing me."


3. "When the hell can we eat?"


4. "How can she shop for 3 hours long???"



5. "Yes, that outfit looks great on you. No, you don't look fat. No, I'm not lying??"


6. "I don't care if this store is on sale, it's still expensive either way."


7. "Does this place have a couch I can sit on??"


8. "How long does it take for a damn receipt to print?"


9. "Which store hasn't she gone in yet?"


10. "This will never end."



Thank you to the males I have asked for honest opinions; I take no offense to any of this, thanks for asking.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
