Men vs Women Part I

I'm not sure if there will be multiple parts, but just out of organization's sake, we'll title this the first part of many possible parts in the future. I write this fascinating insight because, frankly, it comes up frequently between Nevy and me. A typical conversation in the beginning of our relationship would go like this:

Six months ago 

Nevy: Creebear, what are you thinking about?
Me: Nothing.
Nevy: Nuh uh. Tell me what you are thinking about right now, mister!
Me: Baby! I'm really actually thinking about nothing!


And the funny thing is.. I really think about nothing! It's like I have this talent where I can shut off my brain and all that is going on in there would be a blank, black screen. Women, on the other hand, it's like a whirlwind in there! Observe:

A few minutes after convincing my wife that nothing was on my mind 

Me: Well? Tell me what's on -your- mind then.
Nevy: You don't want to know.
Me: Uh.. I actually do. Tell me.
Nevy: Well.. I'm thinking that [insert any Alexandre Dumas classic here and the length of it will suffice]


Ten minutes later 

Nevy: So that's what I was thinking. What are you thinking now?
Me: Oh. I'm thinking about.. nothing.
Nevy: LIAR!


It's so funny because it amazes me how absolutely primative I am compared to her. Her brain is whirling 100+ mph and I can just shut mine off and think of nothing. Does that make me ... special?

And now after being with me for six months, Nevy trusts (usually) when I say that nothing is on my mind. She has this keen ability to know when there is a tiny bothering of me and even when I pass it off as "nothing" she knows it's "something". Maybe it's "something" but it's definitely "something small!" that I don't feel the need to really talk it out. However, I end up being defeated in the end because then I end up spilling things and what was once "nothing" suddenly turned into "something".

So now.. six months into our relationship 

Nevy: What's on your mind?
Cree: Nothing.
Nevy: Oh, okay.


And then.. 1 year into our relationship, she just won't ask anymore.

Just kidding. I love you, Joanna.

Soooooooooooooooooooo funny! I know someone else like that <.< *eyes Gattz* and Cree..he said "SEE I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON"...though, Nevybean, I totally side with you, they get this empty spaceness and your like o.O Whats going on and, it irritates me when he says nothing! So..now 4 years in our relationship, he better believe when I ask him what is wrong, he is going to just say it! So enjoy your little low where she accepts it Cree, it wont last long! lol

"Sometimes I really am not thinking about anything at all" <---GATTZ!!! PFFT

Me on the other hand, if he asks me, what am I thinking about and I say nothing, OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH then it HAS to be something..."Tell me, tell me, please, sad face, please, please, tell me, you dont love me if you dont tell me, lol"

Gattz Gilman said...

>_> Your mixing up two completely different situations.
a)When its out of the blue and women ask "what are you thinking about"
and b)When theres something bothering us/you and we/you wont say what it is

Jill Caldera said...

Its the SAME THING, I wanna know whats on your mind, regardless. (Has this typed out as he types his next response, cause I know what hes gonna say)

Gattz Gilman said...

Cause she's looking at my screen!

Jill Caldera said...

Nu uh! I dont have to look at his screen to know what he is going to do, hence why he is writing again!

Gattz Gilman said...

Then why do you keep looking at my screen? LIKE NOW!

Jill Caldera said...
