Guys do all the spending



I know this is jes damn silly and stupid but it jes popped into my head and I thought id write something abt it. Afterall, its my blog and I might as well as write nething I want in it. And its my babblings afterall. Guys rarely get any gifts. As we grow up, each year on our b’days we would get loads of presents from everyone and it would be a day we would really look forward to. We’d get all diff kinds and varieties of prezzies. But as we grow up it gets lesser and lesser. Soon we only get them if we hold a party, else we’d get rarely nething. Nowadays ppl jes finish it with jes a msg saying ‘happy b’day’ or a card that’s bought from some shop. Before we used to get personal gifts made from our own hands and not jes bought from some shop. Now its our girlfriends and closest friends who give us stuff. But still we notice that girls still get loads of presents each year on their b’days. Is it cos guys wanna win em over and are trying to sugar coat their relationship with the girl? Or do guys find it weird to give other guys presents even if it’s a friend? Or are b’days jes forgotten? Or are we growing more and more religious and in an age where giving presents and wishes on b’days are considered acts against our religion(highly unlikely since we are really poor examples of muslims). I seriously don’t believe that and im totally against NOT celebrating our b’days. Yea, I know its not a good thing if we celebrate b’days with HUGE D’Js where both sex mix together, dance together like hell, drink all sorts of drinks(meaning alcohol) and end up taking a girl home or any other place for a lil …erhm erhm.
But is it really wrong to celebrate the day u were born into this world after leaving ‘the womb’?

Cant we be grateful and thankful that we have been alive for that long? Whats so wrong about inviting over some friends and relatives and having a get together? Nowadays its not easy to have get togethers. All of our friends will be working in all diff offices and its gonna be hard to meet em all together. But a b’day would be the perfect occasion. Now ive strayed way out of the topic too haven’t i? hehe. Neways before I would tell myself that since girls don’t get any money its almost impossible for them to give away gifts like us guys do. But now that they’ve finished studies and are working its still the same. Some of em even get higher salaries than us. Still it’s the guy who has to do all the expenses. Even if its going out on a date it’s the same. When asked what they really do with all the money, most of em say that they use it on dresses, make up, jewelry, shoes etc. Even if its a phone conversation its the same. its the guy who has to do the calling. some ppl even give miss calls to pre-paids even when they themselves are having post-paids. But I do stress that there are still some very wonderful girls out there who go to all different lengths not to be like that. But girls like that are really rare. And yea, I know I know. I got loads of presents on my last b’day too but jes saying it cos ive seen it happen to lots of guys.

Finally something new, I have to agree with u most of the points in this. I do feel majority of the girls who has high salary doesn't spend much on guys. But you have gone out of topic, good that u mention it. I have been through a relationship but I never felt that I give more presents and shit than her.

Heh. The best present you can get is yourself. I keep that in mind when I throw one man birthday parties for myself. :)

did it occur to u that it MAY be a cultural thing? we maldivians have taken some aspects of arabic culture and incorporated it into our own, mistaking it for religious views. among these is the notion that the man should be the provider. this is just a personal opinion though so no offence to anyone :)

kaiza shozey said...

yea, that may be the case. but in arabic culture women dont go out into the open like they do here and maldives dho? here, women have equal rights and earn same as men. that was the point i was trying to make. so in this society i didnt feel that its a good notion. thanx for ur opinion. :D

girls do give gift to the guy if the guy is nice to them. well thats what i do. i give gifts to all of them who is nice to me. so if u guys dont get any gift its ur own fault cox it means that ur not being nice to us!!!...... and abt guys, they dont have any taste in bying gifts to girl but they make us happy even if it is a small gift. n we dont ask them to spend for us. they spend on us on their own with dates and all :P.
