  • I was watching TV with my mom Saturday night when a commercial came on...


    The announcer said, "All women want chocolate for Valentine's Day..."
         In dismay, I let out a, "Nooooooo...."
                At the same time, I heard my mom's voice saying, "Nooooo..."


    It was totally weird.  I didn't know we were in such an accord about a dislike for chocolate.  It's kinda sad really since my dad buys my mom chocolates every year.  It's nice that he buys her anything at all, and she really appreciates the sentiment.  But she just doesn't like chocolates!! 


    It just goes to show, you can't make broad generalzations about anything.  So, guys, if you want to buy something for that special girl, make sure she likes it!!!

  • hahahaha so funny! i said the exact same thing on saturday night. yeah i don't get the deal with chocolates. course you're also lactose intolerant

  • The sad thing is, guys are always fed the "flowers and chocolate" line as things to always get women. It has become so impressed that it is like an automatic response. That and a lot of guys, if you ask them what they think their loved one likes, will respond " i dunno maybe i will get her some chocolates or something".  But of course women WANT what they are getting to be a suprise, so when the guy goes fishing for idea's they say " oh just get me anything" but a lot of guys don't pay enough attention to detail and don't know what they want, which results in the girls being disappointed.

    It's like if there was a b-day party and a guy said "come but don't get me anything' he means don't get me a gift.

    Now ladies, ask yourself this question. if you said "no don't worry, don't get my any gifts" would you be secretly hoping that they would still get you a gift? I had a frined that had that happen and she was upset cause he didn't get her anything.

    The problem is that our society has become very posessive and materialistic and the "thought" isn't really appreciated anymore, it is expected.

    wow sorry if this sounded like a rant heh I was just trying to show why the : get her chocolates" thing was like a brain washing for guys.

  • thanks for the comments, airos.  that really made me chuckle at the absurdity of the man/woman complications.  sad, really.  women are so hard to understand!!!  :)

  • hey... i love chocolates... i really wouldn't mind getting a huge box of see's chocolates. hahahaaaa. what's better than your guy giving u a box of chocolates to get fat off of???

  • All women liked to be surprised with thoughtful gestures of love and appreciation for who they are.

    Heehee, how's that generalization?

  • oh wow, my mom doesn't like chocolate either!
