Un...I think it depends on the way we have grown up. Unfortunately, in our country guys have always been pampered and thus they don't imbibe an attitude of responsibility (more importantly initiative in the house). This directly comes from the way we see our parents, relatives, their friends etc.<BR/><BR/>I am not sure if there is a ready solution for this issue, but it is important that these things be pointed out to the menfolk. It would result in a retort, but in due course things would sink in.<BR/><BR/>regarding a nagging wife: if husbands are ready to take their share of responsibilities then there will be no nagging. The nagging is becoz husbands just wanna sit on the couch and take it easy.<BR/><BR/>and ya, I am a guy, married.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994682204786093434.post-31381372730319471222007-07-17T11:33:00.000+05:302007-07-17T11:33:00.000+05:30Well, its good to see two men posting their views ...Well, its good to see two men posting their views on the topic in hand - the husbands!!<BR/><BR/>Manyscrypts : As I said these lines <I>'feel like telling him' and 'cant he see'</I> would have never come into my post if this "Thodi der mein karta hoon" and forgetting about the task althogether wouldn't be happening 99% of the times.<BR/><BR/>Stone : Do you think its possible to talk to all the time in an officious calm tone? Well, I guess the kind of a person I know you as, probably for you it might be quite possible but for a gerneric person don't think it would be possible be it a husband or a wife or a father or a mother or a child. or for that matter any relation.~nmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483363042572158612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994682204786093434.post-86049758326193128212007-07-16T23:57:00.000+05:302007-07-16T23:57:00.000+05:30not at all...I think you're being perfectly reason...not at all...I think you're being perfectly reasonable. my first comment was getting too long so I erased it. do you have an anon email? or you can write to my gmail id: kodimeow.Anushahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03887052887207435095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994682204786093434.post-42971078468097336702007-07-16T23:22:00.000+05:302007-07-16T23:22:00.000+05:30hahahaha....just loved the rant :-)And its needles...hahahaha....just loved the rant :-)<BR/>And its needless to say that I'm totally with Anuragji!<BR/><BR/>***<BR/>On serious side, almost daily I too face same issues but <B>trust me whatever the issues are, nothing irritates a man more than a 'nagging-wife'</B>.<BR/><BR/>And more importantly in fact there no issues at all, but that way an issue is created out of nothing irritates a lot; it’s all about how one works about solving the issue rather fuming over it or creating a ruckus.<BR/><BR/>IMHO, patience is the key, and as Manu said ‘communication’ is most important, however old a relationship is, never ‘assume’ things, and importantly how one presents the issues matter a lot.Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053118951693455094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994682204786093434.post-14456658222812300172007-07-16T23:20:00.000+05:302007-07-16T23:20:00.000+05:30This comment has been removed by the author.Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16053118951693455094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994682204786093434.post-24473716195487017162007-07-16T15:47:00.000+05:302007-07-16T15:47:00.000+05:30hmmm, that makes me the only one to defend the gen...hmmm, that makes me the only one to defend the gender?..hehe... as far as justifications go, its easy to find them if one isnt objective enough... saw a lot of 'feel like telling him' and 'cant he see'... while i am definitely not defending him, it helps if you communicate, because all of us have evolved our current set of beliefs, thoughts, way of life etc over several years, and most of those years were before marriage... and its not necessary that something thats obvious to the wife/husband is obvious to the other... hence communication is a must until you instinctively know what the other person wants.. so talk.. and all the best :)manuscryptshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08610761336778547517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994682204786093434.post-50989849986031236462007-07-16T15:22:00.000+05:302007-07-16T15:22:00.000+05:30ITW, Asha, Swati & JLT : Do I feel a bit relieved ...ITW, Asha, Swati & JLT : Do I feel a bit relieved to see "I hear ya!" comments form you all?

I hear you so well! <BR/><BR/>Husbands seem to think any little thing they do is a BIG concession for them. <BR/><BR/>I think it is a problem with the way they have been raised. I know my MIL will run and give him a glass of water, dropping all her work, if he so much as mumbles that he is thirsty. Whereas I will not even notice that he has said something like that- after all, the water is there, the glass is there, just take it and drink- like I would do!<BR/><BR/>You won't belive the no of arguments we have had on this score.<BR/><BR/>OOOOh I CERTAINLY do hear you... <BR/><BR/>But have asked myself the same question- whether I am too uncaring a wife... dunno, will wait for some more responses to your post.Just Like Thathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04156108159461377932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994682204786093434.post-77432684355525787062007-07-16T11:25:00.000+05:302007-07-16T11:25:00.000+05:30As Asha said ..nothing is going to change in life....As Asha said ..nothing is going to change in life..neither we nor they. . :)Swatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14263330596396584816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994682204786093434.post-2229235721010027742007-07-16T10:41:00.000+05:302007-07-16T10:41:00.000+05:30I guess, the problem lies with the chromosome!
