Ok, I've been wondering this for quite some time now and I would like other guy's opinions. Have you ever felt that females expect you to read their mind?

I've been seeing this girl for about two weeks now and every time I'm with her, I ask what she wants to do and she gives says something like "well we could do this or we can go here and do this. You pick." So I'm like ok, and I choose what sounds like fun to me and then she gets ticked off because I obviously couldn't read her mind and pick the one that she wanted to do.

You've got to be kidding me.

And then the other day my friend, his girlfriend, and I went to the movies (yes it was a little awkward) and she asked him to go get her a drink and then complained when he asked her what she wanted. "Wow, you seriously don't know what I want to drink? What do I always get?"

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! SORRY WOMAN I FORGOT IT WAS THE DUTY OF US MALES TO REMEMBER EVERY DETAIL OF YOUR LIFE.

Thank God I'm not in a committed relationship.

You'll complain when we DO tell you what's on our mind too.

Most likely. But I'd rather have you speak your mind to me than hold it all in and then act like it's my fault for not saying all the right things.

Well if you would study more you would have already passed Mind Reading 101 and moved on to Mind Reading 102, female mind reading 101 comes after these two pre-requisites.

I feel like I should look for/take courses like that sometimes.

ALL females? Really????

If it's important to me, I'll speak up. If it's not I don't, and then I don't make a big deal about it.

Well you're one of the few then! Lately, I've noticed a lot of girlfriends and girls in general that seem to expect the guys they hang around with to read their minds.

I actually don't mind if my girlfriend yells at me for doing something that I knew was wrong, but to constantly put me in a situation where I feel like I'm going to be wrong either way isn't cool.

Maybe it's more of an age/maturity thing.

Most women my age (mid-late 30's) don't play these games.

Definitely could be true. This girl I've been seeing is 23. But still, you'd think by that age she'd be out of that phase.
