"What are you gonna join the circus", do guys really say that? I think this is where the selection process comes into effect. Guys may think these things, like your sister is hot, but they wouldn't say it to their girlfriend/wife, etc. This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever read!

I just don't want to know about the things that ALMOST got done. I'm sure women say all the above things too, just in different words. But I can honestly say that every one of my friends' or family's husbands have said at least one of these things in their lifetime. If we were more selective based on males' thoughtfullness, most of us would be single for the rest of our lives! I never said guys don’t do nice things.

Wait one minute, you have got to be kidding me! Not all males are the way you portray them in this article. Every guy I know, goes above and beyond when it comes to their wife, girlfriend, etc. Most of the time the guy gives and gives and the wife takes and takes! This is a ridiculous topic! Please consider those of us civilized males when you decide to write an article basking them. Most of us are not cavemen. And as for Jennifer and Cortney, wake up and be a little more selective when choosing a male...OY! Whoa! Wait one minute, you have got to be kidding me!

I think those instructions should be given to every male at birth. I know that some of them already have the knowledge, but it helps to err on the side of caution. I absolutely agree with Cortney.

Too many of us think these things and yet never say anything. My personal favorite has to be... "Well, I don't make a big deal out of my birthday, so I just don't see what the big deal is."

If you didn't do it, don't say it! How about “Well I was going to plan a nice (vacation, dinner, suprise) but I couldn’t think of anything.”

I have no idea what I'm in for - and it's hard to ignore some of the biased opinions of some in regards to life in Clovis. I'm a pretty versitile woman who likes change and new experiences, I would love to talk to someone who has been there a while and can give me information about my future home there. I am also a children/family photographer and would like to know how that might do there? I am mostly into photojournalistic style photography and wondered if there are other photographers there (other than wal-mart or olan mills) that do this type of business. Thanks again and I look forward to hearing from you! Candice in Okinawa! Hi there - I’m a photographer (freelance) currently living in Okinawa Japan and headed to Clovis NM for our next assignment.

Along the lines of the sister is hot comment, I actually broke up with a guy once who said "Um, OK. Do you think your sister will go out with me." I told him to give it a shot.
