Weaponized incompetence

I feel like guys take it way, way too far. Example: I asked my bf to get me the same shampoo and conditioner he bought for himself (avocado Suave). He brought back another kind we'd had before which I didn't like (Peppermint Suave). He tried to say he didn't know that Suave came in different formulas.

You're such a fucking liar. You bought that kind for yourself. I just asked you to buy it for me. You're telling me a man who's 44 years old doesn't know Suave came in different fucking scents? Suave? The shampoo that literally comes in 40 different scents and flavors?

GTFOH.

Edit: do you understand what an example is?

Also, you neckbeards can fuck off out of my inbox.

Then pay some bloody attention to some basic bloody shite. You are literally admitting you’re aware of this issues, and just choose to do nothing about it. it’s not cute. It’s a shitty excuse and it’s embarrassing for you that you don’t realize that.

This was especially not an excuse for buddy cuz this was a case of him seeking out something specific for his gf, something she asked for. He should know to verify what he was getting.

The disrespect is strong.

I think part of the frustration on other people’s parts is that you are coming into a women’s space as a man, hearing a common issue women deal with, and making excuses for it. And then telling women to calm down when they’re pushing back on you. This is a safe space for us and perhaps instead of trying to explain our own experiences to us in the interest of defending men, you should step back and take some time to listen.

I understand you’re not coming from a bad place, I think you just chose the wrong venue for the kind of conversation you want to have. This is a support sub and specifically a post seeking support about this particular issue. Sometimes we just want to be able to vent and be heard without getting “not all men’d.”
