Girl Pride

What is it with girls always wanting to save face?

I mean, sometimes you can just so tell that they want you to talk to them, care about them, or help them with something they can't do. They even hint you to the MAX, and willing to try hinting a few times, but they NEVER spell it out!

And when you ask them, "No, really, do you want me to 'so and so' for you?"

Note: 'so and so' - replace with any favour a girl asks you

While tilting their head to a side and eyes circling everywhere except where you stand.... They'll so skillfully say "Up to you lor..."

They might even add "it's not like I'm forcing you anyway..." which often sends you on a guilt trip if they haven't already have...

Then hor, that's not the end of it. Oh nooo, there's more torturing to be done...

When you finally decide to help them out, they launch into a full attack mode... "Oh, while you're at it, can you also 'so and so'? Don't tell me you can't do something so easy..."

And when you finished giving them the attention they want, given them the perfect advice to solve their issues, or finish doing them a big favour, they very rarely show you the appreciation you expect, if any!

"Oh, you shouldn't have helped me when you know you're so busy!"

or

"Oh, I didn't really used your idea in the end... I was just asking for a second opinion..."

or

"Don't make it sound like a big deal... I'm sure it's not that hard... common... get a grip!"

It's like, they make you feel as if you were the one who offered to help, as if they didn't need you at all anyway, making you feel like the biggest idiot in the world...
