8 Things Guys Say They Hate About Women but They Secretly Love
By Lindsey Unterberger
Guys like to bluster about being tied down and hen-pecked, but as these eight guys reveal, sometimes the very thing they like to complain about is one of the things they love most about their girlfriends. Read on to learn how this seeming contradiction could possibly be true.
The Provider
"I tell her I hate it when she whines, but it's actually cute. It makes me feel needed and important and manly — like I can provide for her and that will stop her whining. I should add that it's a once-in-a-while pleasure."
Tabloid Scammer
"I would be bummed out if she canceled her Us Weekly subscription. I hate having to see Spencer Pratt's ugly mug all the time, but it turns out to be the perfect magazine to read in the bathroom."
Why All of the Questions?
"I'm around a lot of women who are very worried. It seems as if everything you do is followed by a question: Why did you do that? Are you all right? You sure you're not hungry? I always talk about how I hate these incessant questions, but I know deep down if they stopped I would feel less important. It's good to know that people care about you enough to ask those questions, even though they might be annoying."
Garbage Duty
"I always complain about how my girlfriend expects me to do all of the 'man stuff' around the house, like replacing light bulbs and taking out the trash, but I secretly like it."
Date Planner
"I would be bummed if my girlfriend stopped planning out our evenings several days in advance. It makes it easy for me because I don't have to plan anything, but it is annoying sometimes how organized a person can be."
Mother Nurture
"My girlfriend has a tendency of stating the obvious. What I mean is that she will tell me to do something that I am clearly either in the process of doing or going to do. See, you girls always assume that we are eventually going to screw up and do something stupid, so you feel obliged to remind us at every opportunity.
It drives me nuts, but I guarantee that the moment she stops paying attention to what I'm doing or to if I'm doing it the way it should be done, I start feeling like she just doesn't care! So after a grunt or two, I go and fetch her to ask her opinion. Go figure!"
Guilty Pleasures
"I hate when my girlfriend watches shows like The Hills and The City, but recently I find myself secretly loving Monday TV nights."
Blond Ambition
"I hate when my girlfriend works late, but I secretly love how motivated she is and how much she cares about everything she does."
