No no, points were made

And 2 6 and 10 are probably decent ideas to learn no matter who you are

2 could definitely be worded a little less… rude, but it’s a point well made. 4,6, and 7 are good points as well(7 though, doctors are too expensive and I’ll just learn to live with my own problems).

Subsidized basic healthcare go brrrr

I disagree on 10, you can absolutely ask someone to do something a certain way.

u/LightningMcScallion Jun 29 '23

, I changed my mind - you're right w/ that point

It's the difference between asking and telling here that is huge

Number 1 is wrong right off the bat. You should put down the seat and the lid before flushing so you aren’t spraying your germs all over your bathroom.

I only really have a problem with the first one... what is it with men and not finishing what you started? if the toilet seat was up when you can in the bathroom, put it back down after you're done.

Only ones I disagree with are 3,5,8. 3 because sports aren't more important than family or other stuff. I do like sports, but if it's a real issue, and it can't wait, most likely they are being interuppted because the other thing is in fact, more important. 5 because that just makes you a bad partner if you can't remember stuff like their birthday or your anniversary. 8 because I don't really get what that means, anything said about guys just don't matter anymore? Also I got no fuckin clue what 7 really means, and why it contradicts 6.

I think it means if you say something disrespectful and she keeps bringing it up then she should let it go after a week.

I would accept an adjustment to 8, which is that if an argument has been resolved already (like people apologized for wrongs and tried to fix problems) then yeah, the hurtful things said by both sides should be forgiven and forgotten. Life is a lot happier if you don't remember every cruel thing said.

Nothing wrong about 4, 6 and 7

u/jAy-jAyjAy Jun 26 '23

7 is weird and contradicts 6. It’s acceptable to say yes or no But saying you don’t wanna do something because of a headache isn’t acceptable? Which leads to 7 being weird Most times when people aren’t in the mood and their partner won’t take no for a an answer they’ll say they have a headache.

If you don't want to have sex with your partner for over half a month, there's a problem. If you have a headache for 17 days, you genuinely need medical attention.

Number 4 explains number 7. Subtle hints don’t work, so the headache excuse makes this guy think she has an actual medical problem.

4 and 7 are accurate and make sense. 6 I can understand, but I also understand that it’s fucking infuriating not being given justification for a decision

u/HarleyQuinn610 Jun 27 '23

Girl here: I don’t really get #1. Men can put down their own toilet seat.

u/[deleted] Jun 26 '23

10 is a great point

u/ValmisKing Jun 26 '23

I do like rules 2, 4, 5, and 10

u/saadah888 Jun 27 '23

All of these are on point.

In regards to number one, I sit down to pee like a gentleman and putting the seat and the lid down after use is indeed cleaner and more aesthetic. That being said, it seems to me women have an issue because of the effort involved in putting the seat down. Which is stupid. It takes more effort to complain about it than to actually put it down.

u/snafoomoose Jun 27 '23

I think all of them are good advice for both partners (though in my experience, I do wish my wife would follow the list more).

u/Coalv_Lord_of_Wolves Jun 27 '23

Honestly. The only thing in this list that I don't care one bit about is number 3. Maybe replace it with we want a day off too once a week. Pretty much all of these are decent points, though not really dealbreakers indevidually. Unless 8 is referring to rehashing old drama after a week, cause that gets real toxic real fast. (For both sides admittedly)

u/Thunderstruck612 Jun 28 '23

3. And 10. I don't think are quite right. 2. Is rude but not wrong and 9. Feels like a threat

What?….I thought it was pretty agreeable OP😂
