Hers or yours? Why do I ask rolleyes, obviously yours as hers will be in its place already.

You were warned.
A little tip for you, if you give something up now, consider it gone permanently.
Leaving your trousers over a chair is perfectly acceptable, but if you move them, you will never hear the end of it every time you leave something somewhere she doesn't like. Man up, and tell her to deal with it.

A random old man once gave me two tips for dealing with women...

1) NEVER EVER EVER EVER keep to a schedule. Don't do the same thing everyday or come home at exactly the same time every day either as they then come to expect it. On the day that your not home at 6.30 on the dot she will go mad. Change the days and times that you do things, always. This will also help to prevent any kind of cheating to be detected as deviating from the norm will be...the norm.

2) When you get married and you get into your Hotel room on the first night, stand at the top of the bed and then have a good wk and unload over the bed. Turn to your wife and say "Look love, we may be married but as you can see I don't NEED you, so don't act like it"

The above should prevent any loss of sex or loss of Aplha male status once you get home.

Hope I help!

She will "tidy" your stuff, which means finding some dark nook or cranny, which she deems suitable for "man stuff", and putting anything that displeases her in it. In a matter of days you won't be able to find a fking thing.
If you are stupid enough to ask her if she has seen something you've "lost", expect a long drawn out hunt around the house for it.
Don't expect it to be anywhere logical, women don't employ logic in these circumstances.
God yeh!

Why do women do this?

Really does my head in!

Get used to having to be quiet when there is something on tv that she wants to watch, ie most of the night watching soaps.

But when that few hours of motorsport is on and you really want to watch it, be prepared for it to be drowned out by the sound of either:

a) nagging
b) hovering / cleaning
c) her on the phone to someone
d) her saying she needs to talk to you

You can also apply d) to when its time to go to sleep. If she seems a bit off with you and when you ask her whats wrong, she'll say nothing. Yet when you go to bed and start drifting off, she'll pipe up and say 'we need to talk'!

Blimey, I'm doing well. 6 years living together and not one of those applies... and she keeps asking if a V8 S5 or a 911 would be more fun when she can afford one....

did you buy her something while you were out, or do something she wanted doing before/afterwards?

Virtual £10 says you did!
Absolutely!

I well remember a thread on a watch forum I frequent. Chap says something along the lines of how his missus "allowed" him to buy an expensive watch for his birthday with his own money, and then it transpires that of course he bought her a little something whilst they were in the jewellers.

Best of all, every other married man congratulated him on having such a great wife!!! rofl

Hoovering is an essential thing to do. Regularly.

Add to that
e) her slating your parents and everything they have ever done for you both, yet whatever you so, under no circumstances are you allowed to return the favour. Or, if you do try this, be prepared for the cold shoulder and sex being what posh people get coal delivered in

Mine does that. I once made the mistake of pointing out that I knew she'd put whatever it was I was looking for away because I never tidy things uphehe

Mrs slopes is banned from using kitchen knives for this very reason. I bought a new set of knives once, and even after telling her they were sharp half a dozen times, she still managed to cut herself the dozy bint

Ah yeh, forgot that one!

The same applies for attending family events on her side of the family.

You must attend everything her family does, even the trivial little things, yet going to see your side of the family once in a blue moon will cause them to raise hell.

Flowers only serve one purpose in a womans mind.

An admission of guilt from the bloke.

I bet just about every man who has randomly and genuinely bought their nearest and dearest a bunch of flowers just because, has been met with 'what have you done now' as you hand them over.
