They obviously differ coz of personal experiences. Mothers are suppose to selfless and all but I know plenty cases myself when mothers have been extremely self-indulgent. I am just saying that the thought is too generic. Human beings are not made out of a mould. They differ and are wired differently. Also, they are not the same throughout their life either. People evolve for better or worse.
As for the pretentious tag-that was for the opinion that men act different outside in front of other women and different at home.
OK I give up since I dont want 2 argue either. But if u r claiming that all of us forget bt the gender behave the same at home, at office, with friends, with parents, with spouse, with relatives then I guess there is nothing left to discuss with u. All I am saying is:
1. Men ve different ways of showing that they care. Eg Adi doesnt go with her 4 poetry sessions but gave her money when she really needed it. My hubby never gifts me on my Bday or anniversary but suddenly on a whim buys Jalebis since he knows I like them or v had a big fight & its way of apologizing.
2. Most men do take the women in their life for granted. And tat includes both mom & wife. Coz they feel they r the ones who love them unconditionally so they need not pretend & can b themselves
3. Passion in marriage does fade & almost vanishes with years & aft kids. Most marriages become docile aft many yrs. In fact tats y most men & women cheat in their late 30s or early 40s since they no longer find romance in their marriages & crave 4 tat excitement. This applies for both genders. Due to society norms in India women bury their feelings & avoid EMA. Hence instances of infidelity might b higher among men than women here in India.
4. Its the CVs mistake tat they r unable 2 garner empathy for Pooja. I mean Poetry session r u kidding me. As an adult I find tat complaint too silly or kiddish. How many in the entire population ll like poetry leave alone attending a boring session? Is this even a reason?
5. Men dont understand subtle hints. You need 2 b direct with them.
6. Finally yes when they r watching TV or playing games they wont turn even if the world is coming 2 an end.
As of now its only Pooja who comes across as immature rather than Adi...
