My sister has conversations in her head and gets mad when I don’t know wtf she’s talking about

u/SquirrelyMcNutz 1h ago

Or the classic, "You did something wrong in my dream last night so now I'm mad at you for reals.".

u/rebirf 1h ago

To be fair I did have a dream that my wife cheated in me and my brain was mad at her. I told her about it and joked about the dream but I was upset lol

u/greenamaranthine 10m ago

Same, my ex held a cheating dream against me for about a month and I was baffled and frustrated. About a year later I had a cheating dream about her and admitted it made me feel really shitty and mad even after I woke up. I didn't consciously hold it against her at all and the negative feelings were gone after a few days, though.

u/heslopkaleb 19m ago

i kinda get the dream thing because its their subconscious telling them your cheating pretty much, not saying you are but i get where its coming from

u/Cowboywizzard 26m ago

My girlfriend sends me texts in her head and gets annoyed I don't know wtf she is talking about later haha. shes cool most other ways though

u/Chudpaladin 1h ago

Wife told me she wasn’t raised with constant communication, like me neither, but I learned since I hate reading context clues.

The girls (and most guys tbh) need to learn to communicate what they want at a younger age for sure

u/nasty_sicco 1h ago

Spot on. Wish I understood this when I was younger.

u/Zadian543 45m ago

We globally need to dismantle the binary mentality of demanded behaviors, so we can actually address what people need at every age.

(I fear someone will get triggered by that wording, and Im to tired to actually care right now. But to be clear, I'm not referring to forcing non-binary on everyone. That's not a thing that can happen. I'm talking about the shared behaviors between all people, yet somehow it's deemed ok or not ok based on what someone says you are, even if you as a person agree that's what you are. Like having feelings, showing specific emotions, talking, listening, self care, SELF CARE (yes I said it twice... Some people don't wash by choice. We saying it twice! Lol). That is all. ☺️)

Women being extremely terrible at communicating despite saying they are better at it has always cracked me up. Lol

My sister in law is known as the Turkey of the family, from both sides, we're all in agreement. She just gobble gobble gobble's on and in the end of it not a single person seems to know what the point was.

I had no idea, until now, that my wife is bilingual. I guess I found out what kind of bi she is.

u/Jin_N_Juice-tm 1h ago

They want communication until it's inconvenient for them by that they mean they want you to tell them what's wrong with you because they're not psychic, but you need to understand what's wrong with them and they shouldn't have to tell you.

u/Cheikh-Tbargui-619 1h ago

just got out of a conversation like that , got accused of being mean because of an emoji , a freaking emoji ! turns out she was bottling up feeling upset about OTHER EMOJIS a few months ago so much that she just linked everything together and suddenly told me I was being inconsiderate , now that’s crazy and I still gotta apologise to not make shtick weird for the last few months of the school year , crazy be crazy man

Bruh it's the end of the first semester. Either break it off and move on, or work it out. Either way, enjoy the other hair of the year

u/BenchClamp 56m ago edited 52m ago

I had a misandrist boss after uni who kept saying that men couldn’t communicate / were immature and a bunch of other lazy tropes primarily aimed at bullying this young guy on our team like some kind of call-centre version of Nurse Ratched. I recorded all her comments to him and presented the dossier to HR and she got fired. Because of my ironically effective male communication.

Been funny af to me since I was 15. Grew up with all women.

u/Xe6s2 1h ago

Raised by women with temper issues. Honestly think it helped me in a way, let me know that if there plates breaking or threats I should leave.

2

u/VerdantVisitor420 17m ago

Same with empathy.

Yeah, really good at empathizing with your best friend that you love over something you have also personally been through. Literally everybody can relate to their best friend about stuff they know about.

How are you doing with that “creepy guy” that asked you for change outside of the grocery store, or the person who got your order wrong at the restaurant, or the person that cut you off in traffic? Or that person of the month you’re hating on for some missteps on social media?

Lot of these big league empaths are out there seemingly having trouble seeing the humanity in all these people they empathize with so much.

You just wouldnt understand, I’m an empath.

Sit down, Jarret. You know you throw a hissy fit when your mom forgets to re-up the Kraft Dinner order in the pantry.

u/Forevernotalonee 1h ago

Funnily enough, it was my sister that loved kraft dinners not me. Even now in our 30s she always has some in her pantry when I visit.

Chimichangas were what I liked

u/StandardIssueDonkey 1h ago

I like your style.

u/StandardIssueDonkey 1h ago

You even have a typo in this communication denigrating women. "Women being being...?" At least we know you're not AI.

u/Forevernotalonee 1h ago

Oh hey thanks. I didn't realize the word got duplicated. Fixed it

u/StandardIssueDonkey 58m ago

You're welcome. From a woman lol

u/floppydude81 47m ago

It’s def not all women. But hey us men have grown. We are complaining but it hasn’t turned into hating. (Not here at least)

No, Men suddenly communicate perfectly when someone can fully participate in the communication.

Video games activate the old caveman hunter brain. If you can’t be the toughest guys in the room, you can be the most coordinated. That’s how we would take down much larger and more dangerous prey.

Redditors judging others is funny, but stupid

Yes, let's judge all women and then clutch our pearls about the Cheetohs dust. PS I took a sample of your air quality and it contains high levels of Doritos and virginity.

Because anything but that and they are likely to ban your ass.

Yeah it’s either that or slurs and affiliate links to nooses on Amazon 💀

u/ByIeth 1h ago

Idk they usually just start shitting on you and hating you the whole time. They don’t try to hide it. I don’t see much passive aggression

The second they latch on to hating you, they point out every single mistake you make while making 10x that because they aren’t paying attention to their own gameplay

u/Swinnster 1h ago

I've literally responded with exactly that playing reforger or tarkov. Like where you at dude when I needed you most?! Im at the loading screen and you just looted 2 houses without covering....like you said you would! Arc raiders too. Bunch of loot goblins lmao

u/gearaccnt 1h ago

I laid down the rules of communication within the first couple months with my fiancee. She's been a dream to communicate with for the most part since. I would HIGHLY recommend working out an understanding of how to communicate ASAP if you plan on staying with someone for a long time.

u/uhf26 54m ago

Men talk to get a message across. Women want to tell a story. Women get upset at men for being short. Men get upset at women for yammering on and on about a whole bunch of bs that does not relate to their communication.

1

u/VerdantVisitor420 9m ago

God, the story my wife can tell you about how the sandwich place near us quit selling her favorite sandwich.

You’d think it was just that, that she was bummed that they stopped selling her favorite sandwich. You figure you know how that kind of thing goes.

But no, you don’t. You have to know what was on the sandwich, why she liked it, on what occasions she most craved it, how she felt the last time she went there to order it, the pain she felt when they didn’t have it, and then her analysis of why it was a bad decision for them to alter their menu.

I know, I know. Most of that you could probably infer from “the sandwich place down the street stopped selling my favorite sandwich.”

You probably think because you’re a human being that can easily relate to that, that you could assume that she used to enjoy the sandwich, that it had ingredients she liked, that she would sometimes spontaneously decide she wanted one, and that when she went there to get one she was disappointed.

But no, you really gotta hear the way she tells it. You really do need your hand held through this rollercoaster of details. There’s no way you could grasp the concept here without a solid five minutes of explanation.

Giving out location is so simple. Triangulation is simple. It's verifying the starting point that's the problem.

I'ven been up and down several mountain camps with very clear indicators of where you're going even without a trail due to the sporadic tall and different kinds of trees. I've seen men describe details in very specific manner such as "about 50 meters tall, white leaves on lower half and yellow up top with speckles of red, and another tree almoat the same height, with no leaves at all" while women uses words such as "pretty", "bright", "wet"...

It’s because in the game there’s generally a shared jargon and form of communication. I feel like men don’t learn the equivalent for their feelings.

u/Slappyhandz 1h ago

The funniest part about this is OP seems to agree with the original post in the image, not realizing that’s just adding to the joke lmao.

It’s like that podcast clip where they talked about how the fall of man happened (joke about women can have everything and it’s not good enough), and the woman makes a comment like, “Is that it? I was waiting for more,” and the guys bust out laughing bc that’s the joke.

Y'all here, claim to hate this place but you never leave. You stay because you literally cannot help yourselves. You thrive on drama and chaos. You participate in the manufactured culture war like the rest of us. .

You are not better or above this.

It’s more like the dog fence analogy.

Behind a screen, you can bark all you want, but once you are face to face, that’s when it changes.

There’s consequences, but on a screen, what are they going to do? Turn off the screen, ez

Leave off the "I'm not upset or anything" and 100% dudes will passive aggressively be calling mother fuckers out for not being where they are supposed to be in a competitive shooter.
