Have you ever been around men who were talking about women? Most men don’t seem to ‘get’ or understand women. They call us ‘complicated’ beings who say something, mean something else, and do something else. While that might be true in certain cases ( 😛 ), a lot of men are terrible in understanding what a woman wants to say, even when she says it directly. Here’s a classic example.
A married man took to Reddit to share a certain incident, because of which he has been having a fight with his wife. He wanted to gift their househelp a phone. Since the househelp’s phone apparently didn’t work “half the time”, he decided to gift her one in a kind gesture.
However, he spoke to his wife about it and his wife said ‘no’. He asked her multiple times, but she said ‘no’. However, he went ahead and gifted the househelp a phone anyway.
And then he was wondering why his wife got mad at him! After his wife specifically said ‘no’ to the idea, he went behind her back, disrespected her opinion, and did what he wanted anyway. And then he asked people why his wife was mad!
“I don’t understand what’s up with women. We’re about to leave the currently rented flat and the maid, who is a bit annoying but I observed as my wife’s only hangout buddy, I thought to gift her a phone, so I did, and now my wife’s mad about it. Her, the maid’s, phone doesn’t work half the time so I thought to gift her one being one of the last gestures, given she’s too poor to be able to afford a new one, at least that won’t break in a couple of months. I told my wife about my intention and that time she just said no, no reasons given when I asked multiple times. It’s 3:21 am in the morning of a Monday morning when I’m writing this and wife’s been throwing F bombs at me the whole time. I don’t understand, she talks to her so sweet and when I help her, I’m the evil person?” the guy wrote.

Several people online hilariously responded to the incident. While many cracked jokes about how the guy is heading towards his own divorce, others called him out for his behavior. Here’s what they had to say:

Women aren’t that complicated after all!
