Do Women really cost you too much?
Hi,
My husband and i were on our line to the cashier station to pay for the food stuff we bought, there is an old man (this man is wearing just like a qatari clothes but don't have any idea if he is a local qatarian) who came first to pay for the stuff he bought then suddenly his wife came with this "chocolate drinks in tetra pack" of course we don't understand what this old man says to his wife but he ask his wife to return it back and she did, while his wife is away, this old man is talking about saying "women really cost you too much big mushkila". The cashier and both of us were laughing because this old man is really funny. So now i thought of asking here in the forum, Does a woman really cost you too much? and in what way...
seny0rita said ..but at all the other else, men cost us a lot! costs us a lot of - stress, self-loath, low self esteem, bitterness, pain, emotional suffering..brain damage!lol"
Many a true word said in jest. ;0)
God has been merciful for my blank slate. I'm glad I have so far avoided being shackled to a lame duck or that blank slate would have been messed up again.
/In reality, my accident which wiped out my memory initially, rebooted,if you will - set me free from past emotional entanglements. I only remember what I consciously made the effort to recall - work, studies, family and friends. For that and many other things, I am grateful to God.

The only time someone would think of someone else as "costing too much" is if they believe the money to be their own, and therefore resent other people spending it.
So, no the woman did not cost too much, the man is a bigot who considers his relationship with his wife to be a patriarchal dominant relationship, rather than a partnership.
Furthermore, women and men tend to spend money on different interests, however the damage to the bank balance can be relatively equal. While women tend to make smaller, yet more regular purchases, men tend to make much larger yet more infrequent ones. Think clothes & shoes versus electronic goods and engine based objects (generalisation). While the men may think a woman's purchases are trivial, they are merely exposing their intolerance to differences, rather than their wives spending rate."

Hmm... I really should learn to spend money like water. How come these women are so lucky to have men who will pay for everything? ... I'm unlucky cos I have to pay for everything myself... but I'm free as a boid. Well, some things have got to give way.

How else could we be, we are special, we are curved and so we got to be expensive, if we are straight, then we can be cheap but we do have a tag on us(all women) I MEAN PRICELESS, I don't know bout you but I"m too expensive, just priceless!!
I love to remain a woman.
Thank God
Yep I am afraid it is like that. Every time I see the credit card bill.. The amount of money going to those saloons, orthodentist, The list goes on and on..
I got real ear bashing last week when I bought a replacemnet 42" LCD Full HD TV for meerily the price of her one visit to the Saloon and Spa...
Yes I must confess women do cost a lot especially the one's that come from the sun deprived Areas ..lol

women are a brilliant investment.
i know right just get the woman happy we need to be happy to make you happy too. we women remember!
yes?????? i wonder why men think women cost too much. you go shopping with men they always say that but guess what when we get home the men enjoy the things we buy more than we women do.
Its not called buying ..... name it as investment for a healthy tension free life
Buying is when you argue and fight over small things that would stop you enjoying your life to the fullest

Get your eyes checked Rizks it was VEET not NAIR and you remember the ad for Veet and how smooth Katrina's legs were? Well my face was just like that! It didnt burn at all perhaps now you can apply it all over and get rid of that fur :D

I cant beat that Smoke, I rarely walk out of the salon without spending at least the GDP of a small South American country.

Smoke but the other day u didnt had Razor Blades and U used NAIR hair remover on ur face - kindly share ur experience, did it burned too ?....:)
That may be true Amoud, but yes i was talking about shaving my face at home and thinking about women getting waxed at the saloon. Now with 20 riyals i can get a hair cut, shave my face and a nice head massage :) beat that.

Women shave their legs? Why??
And Da, I do NOT want to know what the "s" stands for lol
amber.., Nationality: Qatar. and you have no idea whether they man is local qatari? hmmm...
anyway, as a lady i would say that men may be spending more for us than for themselves. toiletries alone will cost me more than the food i consume monthly.

Alexa your spot on both are responsible for the finances.. One for earning them and the other for spending them..lol

I really wonder what you can do with that..lol the Gillate balde I see at home is much costly..lol
add that one to the equation ;-)
has 3K pair of shoes. deffinitely she's a very costly.
"katas ng qatar"
Seriously, if we women wax at home it is far cheaper than the Gilette razors.
____________________________________________________
"Diplomacy is the art of saying 'Nice doggie' until you can find a rock - Will Rogers"
Amoud i use the old fashion razors! what is so hard to believe in that i dont like that mach this and mach that thats for WOMEN. i like to feel the burn on my face after a nice shave and a few cuts here and there never killed anyone! My blades cost 2 riyals for 10 i think? will confirm when i go home :D
Now now NFS comparing price of apple with price of an Elephant is not the same thing, your just trying to make it look like waxing is so much cheaper when compared to a merc, however waxing is still more expensive than my packet of blades so HA!
Good Fortune always comes knocking at your door...when you are sh*tting in the toilet!! :)
_[]~SMoKE~[]_
LoL Amoud...
WTH ??
i got a blade which costed just 0.50DHS...:(
2 QR for a packet of razors? What are you shaving with Smoke, chopsticks lol.
_____________________________________________________
"Diplomacy is the art of saying 'Nice doggie' until you can find a rock - Will Rogers"
smoke, now youre getting too personal, dragging my DNA into this :-P
And you can do a hell of a lot of waxing for the price of a mercedes.
oops NFH how did you know that I have just bought a new big TV and a new car in the last month Are your mystic meg?...lol
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
True NFH, we may spend more frequently but our vices are far cheaper than the big boy toys.
____________________________________________________
"Diplomacy is the art of saying 'Nice doggie' until you can find a rock - Will Rogers"
NFH now this is too much ok! I am not taking your DNA and FS's DNA too, i dread to think the outcome of that...*imagination running wild here*
But see it doesnt have to be just beauty products, like for eg. WAXING you wont see many men going to do waxing do you? how much does waxing cost? When we shave our face our blades just cost 2 riyals a packet! :p
Now Rizks will come and say he got blades for 1 riyal lol
Good Fortune always comes knocking at your door...when you are sh*tting in the toilet!! :)

UKeng, see my post above.
Boys toys.
Your hubby spending more than you, now what is the magical formula..all of us men wanna know..
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
I was Born to be Barefoot.
Hey women buy shoes and bras, but men buy cars and big screen tv's.....
Indeed NFH. My husband would love me to adopt this kind of uniqueness :)
I bought 2 pairs of shoes in one day and he couldnt understand why. It was perfectly logical to me, buy one pair, get the second at 50%. I was actually SAVING him money. How inconsiderate of him to be upset lol.
_____________________________________________________
"Diplomacy is the art of saying 'Nice doggie' until you can find a rock - Will Rogers"
Yep Amoud, hate 'em, hate shopping for 'em. And yeah... I know it's not natural.
What can I say, it's part of my uniqueness :-)
LoL Smoke....
u might find where SALE is there ??....
Buy 3 Get one Free...:)
NFH, you hate shoes!!! Surely this cant be natural :) (J/K sweety)

Come on guys, you all know you love when we woman are looking as fine as wine for ya'll. It does have a price :)
There is just so many options out there for us gals. A woman can own 15 pairs of black pants and every single one is completely different. For men, black pants are in 3 categories; jeans, dress and sport.
____________________________________________________
"Diplomacy is the art of saying 'Nice doggie' until you can find a rock - Will Rogers"
But smoke, believe it or not, some women don't buy into all that crap. My hubby spends waaay more money than I ever do.
And furthermore....
I hate shoes!!!
Okay I dont wear Micro Minis...dont be so sure that I dont have better legs than her? lool
Phew Rizks thank god you said that, i was going to say 2 underwears for the price of one bra as i thought people would think i wear cheap under garments, you prove me right :p
psst now tell me where is this place u got 4?
Good Fortune always comes knocking at your door...when you are sh*tting in the toilet!! :)
_[]~SMoKE~[]_
It all depends your understanding with each other & tolerance. No doubt, when a person has to invest on another person along with him will definitely increases his/her expenditure but as I said if both have good understanding & strong relationship then both will spend freely but with cautious thinking whether such thing is really required or not
.
If any person spends money on needless things then of course any salary will seem less to that person. So as our PROPHET MOHAMMAD (p.b.u.h.) said that "Be neutral in spending your wealth"
.
Hence i would say 50 - 50 in this forum about both women & men.
Yes for me its worth to make my Lady happy
.... Less tension in the house
[img_assist|nid=50852|title=hmm|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=|height=0]
FS perhaps i should send a link of this topic to your lucky hubby...or better yet lend me your DNA, so that we may clone you, of course my clone will have Sania Mirza's face and LEGS!!

LooL Smoke......
a small correction there,i bought 4 underwears for the price of one damn bra....:(
An Accident or Incident or Co-incident ?? :)

Will you TWO stop spreading this news about me being married 4 times? How the hell am i going to get the 5th wife at this rate? And those 3 kids i swear was an accident..the 1 on the way well hmmm just sorting out the adoption papers :p
Do i have to be "married" to know these things about women? Victor tell me where in Qatar a lady can go get a hair cut for 15 riyals :p
someonenew already mentioned that the price for women products are way higher compared to men's. Heck i can get 3 underwear for the price of one bra lol.

FS do you have any sister with similar thoughts...hmmm
Guess I married the wrong woman again...lol
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
All that savings/investments are in our joint name...that’s how he shows love!
He don’t have any problem in buying I have supplementary cards of all his accounts.....can you believe I never asked him for anything until 5 yrs of marriage... I never asked my parents for anything..they used to buy me everything I like without asking...even he did the same...whenever he asked me what you need for your bday or anniversary I never asked for anything...I don’t like to ask anybody.. anything..not even to my own folks..that’s me..:(
what if vice versa?
So your absolutely right FS.. Married women do not cost much.. It is only the ones, before and after the marriage that cost so much...
Guess you husband does not love you so much to save all that money...lol

Like how many shoes does a woman need!?
compared to a man!

To keep your women happy is priceless - does this mean because you shop for your woman willingly?
do you think a man feels proud if he makes his woman feel happy by giving gifts instead of a woman ask to buy things for her?
Smoke is a happily married MAN with 3 kids and 1 on the way ....
FS was it Choco Milk or Lipsticks ?? :)
Smokey married four times they all left him, because he didnt buy them Choco milk..lol
Yea, my wife to much expensive!!!!!
wish lists, no issues...
Problem starts when depending on spouse with Loads of personal expenses...in the above case Choc Milk of tetra pack is not very costly.
Is smokey married?..I doubt, it is general comment.
Can I recommend my sis-in-law...lol she can spend like 100K in one day...half of what she buy will not fit her or wont suit her..lol
both agree, because if you can take care of yourself, same as well take care of your women.
UKEng....its all about what you love more? MONEY or your Woman? If you love her you have to pay for it..
I am happy spending my own money...not my hubby's money..he can save all that:)
Most Women's stuff are much more expensive than Men's stuff... so even the market is biased, sorry cant do anythin abt that.
"Ali Baba and 40 thieves" are now "Ali Baba and 30 thieves" ; 10 were laid off.
In india men are costlier than women. Of course other than india women are costlier.
With My xperience Women r 'HEAD ACHE' i did not mean to hurt any buddy it is all my own.
I am still waiting to meet a woman with unlimited needs
:)
VB, i think this is when the lady is not happy with her man, and she tries to compensate by buying herself gifts i.e., spending his money, sort of like a payback for the emotional shortcoming. it happens...
Yep I agree with Balder on that formula.. Was following the second part , until I committed the same mistake twice.. Now first part of your formulas applies again..
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
completely agree with you....
Woman really cost too much
costing at different places...guys diverting the thread..
I read an article about women psychology that in general women, who are buying lots of stuff, keep them more happy and less depressed.....
I don't know the real reason.....
some women have unlimted needs/wants...I pity them...
To keep your women happy is priceless
[img_assist|nid=50852|title=hmm|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=|height=0]
Not all women are ...but many women made their husbands bankrupt in the past...
Its not a gender issue..its about injudicious spending..
some men also spent loads on gadgets and other things they LIKE (you know what men like)
LIFE itself cost too much..lol
Of course women cost too much. Here's the simple maths as I found it.
Me + (ex)Wife = 2x salary = nothing saved
Me - (ex)Wife = 1x salary = loads of money in the bank!
I wont talk in terms of FOOD, however more in the general category: If you look at the market today you will see a LOT of products that tell women if they use it they will look pretty, younger, blah blah. Women have this obsession with shoes, hand bags, accessories stuff that we men think you already have ENOUGH, i mean you just have two feet like we do, so how many pairs of shoes do u want? Some women are just shopaholics nothing to comment on that. But in general YES women do have a lot to buy, so they do cost too much...but then, hey its all worth it, coz in the end they dress up to look beautiful for their man!!
Good Fortune always comes knocking at your door...when you are sh*tting in the toilet!! :)
_[]~SMoKE~[]_
Yes I tend to agree... some of the men here when they pass by smell of more perfume then the women..and they all have fancy watches, sunglasses and so on....
Dont get me wrong - there is nothing wrong in a man taking care of himself - but here it seems to go a bit over board....
No.. One woman does not cost so much..
But if you talking about Women (as your title suggests)
then yes they do cost a lot..
-----------------
HE WHO DARES WINS
I think men spent more than women :-)
somebody would say thats women spend on beauty and accessories... yes indeed but men also they have their own welfare expenses, sport waves, watches car accessories... barbecues:D
You cannot put a price on a woman's happiness.
Oh - and to follow on from that - got rid of the stingy old git too !!!!
Even taking into account the current currency rates, Yes women do cost a lot.. Specially the China Dolls at the Ramada..
Why is it that the woman costs too much.... why can't it just be that the old codger is a stingy old bugger who does not wanna spend his money.....??
Yes I agree that some women dont know when to stop when it comes to buying things (in this I mean being a shopaholic for clothes/bags etc which her parnter/husband might not be able to afford)..but it does not mean we are all like that ...
And trust me - being with a stingy git is no fun at all !!!
YES!
Its just a simple grievances of any husband with a wife that are too impulsive to buy things that for the husbands reactions are quite unnecessary.
being he was an old man, must have lot of experience about female as said "Mushkila Kabeer"!
