Shattered said:Hey, now.. Purse shopping IS a sport.. Just like shoe shopping.

The only reason MM went to the store was because we didn't have time to do otherwise. I buy his shoes, shirts, pants, underwear, sweats...... If they don't fit, I return/exchange them. Oh, and he looks nice. I don't dress him in those funny striped, little boy shirts that tag him as 'taken'.no1tovote4 said:T
Man needs a shirt, he goes to the store with shirts, selects one and buys it. Leaves. 10 minutes and $40.
Not all women.Woman needs a shirt, she goes to the mall spends several hours walking around and looking at shoes, purses, jewelry, paintings, etc. Tries on about everything in the clothing store, buys a shirt and shoes, purses, perfume, pants that go with the shoes and shirt, etc. 4 hours and $400.

Can you explain to me why?no1tovote4 said:.....I hate going to the store.

JOKER96BRAVO said:Ya....
I would for sure just tell you...
"I'll be by the video games"
no1tovote4 said:I should have said I hate shopping.
I think this likely goes back to Hunter-Gathering days.
I don't like spending any time finding "just the right shirt and shoe combo". I just want to buy and go do something more useful with my life...
I don't relish the idea myself. There are some women (& men..I know a few) Who love to shop. I know one man who dresses impecably. Says he has tons of sweaters he's never even worn before; Owns 13 coats. To some it's finding that bargain or relieves stress. My mother could go to a mall, spend the afternoon, and leave with nothing more than to have eaten an icecream cone. I don't mean to insult anyone but what a waste. But I hate going to the grocery even more. I'd be rich if I didn't have to eat.no1tovote4 said:I should have said I hate shopping.

So, did you wear what they wanted you to?Bonnie said:.... And also had very strong opinions about what I should be buying.
I like going for a particular item only 'that' store carries, only to be out of it and they won't be getting a shipment for another 4 days.no1tovote4 said:... Walking up and down aisles looking for the can of whatsit that is on a list is just mind numbing.
Joz said:So, did you wear what they wanted you to?
I talked to one woman who had just broken up with her boyfriend and she was trying to figure out what to do with all the leather she had!! And it wasn't outter wear.
Bonnie said:That depended on the who the what and the when, I always made the final decision, but I was struck at how much of an interest was being taken.
no1tovote4 said:You were dating, right?
This is one of the things that will change when you get married to them. They no longer need to impress you by pretending...
Bonnie said:Actually I was married to one of them, and it got worse after the wedding LOL go figure. All I know is I had an awful lot of under things in my drawer after the divorce.......LOL
