Piping hot gaspatcho soup!
Raw diets have an effect...my gf not only seems happier, her eyes went from dark brown to this killer translucent hazel gem color. Really pretty.
meg_evonne:
not that I'm suggesting you use your gf as a lab rat, but I have hazel eyes..
take fabric swatches of different colors one at a time and put under her chin---taaa.. daaaa, her eyes will change color. It's cool. :D
Geez, I gotta close this window down and get some work done!

Imagine if the lady is just naturally more comfortable around the house without clothes. A habit that tends to run in her family. . . and is purely a comfort thing with the adults. Predictable to within ten minutes of arriving home after a full day. After a while nudity, or partial thereof, means nothing. You get used to it after a decade or so.

Aside from the "dead ender" stuff (things so bad you could never live with this person), I can't stand when a woman asks me for my opinion knowing full well she won't like it. Case in point.
"which dress do you think I should wear?"
"You know I hate this game, why don't you ask which dress I hate the most so you can just pick that one. You'll look beautiful no matter what you choose and you'll never pick what I recomend anyway. "
"No, I'm serious. Tell me which one you like. Theres only three. Which one do you like the most."
"Are you sure about this, you really care what my opinion is?"
"Of course I do, otherwise I wouldn't ask you"
"I like the red one. It sets off your hair and everything, its dead sexy."
"oh, wait what about this one" (goes to get another dress, comes back with two, then demands my attention again because my opinion is sooo very important)
"I still like the red one the best. If you don't want to wear it, the silver one would look good as well."
"I'm not sure, what about this green one"
"I think that would look fantastic.. on my grandmother" (then immediately feel chagrined because this is not funny, its serious, we need to leave soon and she needs my help. She tells me this with her eyes. She also tells me she will remember this for at least a week)
"You're going to look beautiful no matter what dress you wear (it was worth a shot, but shes still going to remember). If you don't like the first two I mentioned, wear the black dress. Its classy, beautiful, you'll look great."
...
skip to the end. She wears none of the dresses I picked. She still looks beautiful and still doesn't feel the least bit fazed that she chose to wear the one dress that I didn't mention. I've tried picking them in reverse from dresses to lamps to colors to freaking food in the grocery store. It doesn't seem to matter. Its always the last thing I would pick. Of course, we divorced (unrelated reasons), so its some other poor fools problem now. ;D

Bad communication is not a gender-specific thing.
The ways in which people are socially taught that bad communication is appropriate definitely differ, sure. (See Murphy pointing out the stupidity of the whole Harry and Thomas not communicating because it's a guy thing in PG.)
Doesn't mean you can;t legitimately expect people who really care to make the effort to really communicate.
