Some things about girls you would never understand

Some things about girls you would never understand.

  • If you think a girl is beautiful, she’ll always have a boyfriend to confirm that.
  • the nicer she is…the quicker you will be dumped!!!!!
  • The more the makeup, worse the looks…
  • “95% of the girls in this world are beautiful. Remaining 5% would always be around you…
  • The guy standing next to a beautiful girl can never be her brother.
  • If by any chance the girl you like , likes you too, she will let you know in about 10 years from now ,when you are committed to some one else
  • The more you ignore a girl, the more she’ll want to be friends with you.
  • Theory of relativity.. ….The more you run towards a hot chick….the more she goes away from you…
  • Rule 1: Even if you got her out alone… just when you are about to let her know about your feelings…she will spot a long lost friend( I guess from Kumbh ka Mela)
    Corollary to rule 1: The more desperate you are to tell your feelings to a girl on a private chat, the more probability the long lost friend she discovered is a handsome superman, who beats you in everything 9:1
    Axiom 1: The more dedicated you are to the girl, the longer it takes before things work out, but ultimately it will (some smile for the guys)
  • the day the chick you really like comes and speaks to you will be the day when-
    1. You are dressed badly
    2. You forgot to brush your teeth for the first time in your life
    3. Have a bad hair day
  • all the good girls are either nuns or married .the rest go around with you and ruin your money,health and leave you a total wreck.

Better than saying "I Love You"

Posted by Santosh Mishra on January 4th, 2007

This is better than saying “I love you”……….

Marty woke up at home with a huge hangover. He forced himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he saw was a couple of aspirins and a glass of water on the side table.

He sat down and saw his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. Marty looked around the room and saw that it was in perfect order, spotless, clean.

So was the rest of the house. He took the aspirins and noticed a note on the table,”Honey, breakfast is on the stove; I left early to go shopping. Love you.”

So he went to the kitchen and sure enough there was hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His son was also at the table, eating.

Marty asked, “Son, what happened last night?” His son said, “Well, you came home after 3 A.M., drunk and delirious. Broke some furniture, puked in the hallway, and gave yourself a black eye when you stumbled into the door. ”

Confused, Marty asked, “So, why is everything in order and so clean, and! Breakfast is on the table waiting for me?” His son replied,

“Oh, that! Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you said, “Lady, leave me alone, I’m married!”
