I thought that...Then I had a gig last night... Mrs. Broom refused to go, then acted all angry with me when I got in, BEFORE she was even expecting me.
This was followed by a half hour conversation about, "now we're married, I think we should be forgetting kids stuff like being in bands and start settling down a bit."
I am 25.

because I threw a rubbishy (Top Shop or some shit like that) ring into the bin. It was my brother's and he'd left it at the house last time he was around. She, in her infinite wisdom, assumed it was probably one that she'd given me and turned sour without telling me why.
And I'm sure there are thousands of storys she could tell you about what a childish prick I am... so - buck up, but stand your ground! People is complicated but ultimately worth it.

It just takes a bit of adjusting to I guess when people are taught that genders should act one way, we're pitted against each other before we ever get to learn the ways of the world for ourselves

But seriously, bang on, it's one of my all time pet peeves

I still enjoyed myself, and I'll still pick her up in the car from nights out at three in the morning without complaining. I think it's just that men and women have different ways of showing that they love each other...

I didn't really mean "Men and Women", I just meant "people" as everyone's different and so on, but I got in a word tangle and that was the easiest way to put it....

Though maybe more than I originally used to think, but that's what we grow up seeing and believing, so that's how we act.
If you take little 'uns you find girls just as enthusiastic about playing with trucks as boys, and boys just as likely to be emotional as girls...but somewhere along the road we learn how 'wrong' that is and start 'acting more like a young lady' or stop 'acting like a pansy'.
We start playing our roles in this vast game of boy vs. girl, and spend the rest of our lives trying to manipulate each other from our own ways of being.
I'm just not convinced it really has to be that way if you don't want it to be.

I think all people really need is a bit of empathy every now and then.... regardless of gender... Every situation, and every person is different and it's how you rect to that I suppose...

It's the same thing with me and mine.
Neither of us really wants to get married, expect for the fact all her mates are (none of mine are).
That and her fat teacher's pension.
