Subject:  Why can’t men call when they are going to be late and/or not show up?
 
As someone who has a degree in Psychology and wants to go back and get my masters, I am
always interested in certain innate behaviors.  The one that has to be the most mystifying is this –
Men, why can’t you pick up a phone and call when you are going to be late and/ or not show up
at all?  Please, on behalf of the rest of the women in this world, help us understand.  Is it because
you feel we are trying to control you, and/or you would feel whipped telling your buddies you
need to make a phone call so that someone who cares about you doesn't worry, and/or it seems
to much like a commitment?
 
While I won't speak for all women, because I know there are several out there that won't fall into
this category….the only “c” word that this has to do with is “CONCERN”!!!!  Are you lying in a
ditch, an emergency room?  We are not necessarily thinking that you are with someone else or
doing something you don’t want us to know about.  We are genuinely concerned about your well
being.  My ex-husband’s reason for not calling used to be “well, by the time I think of it, I know
you are already pissed…and we all know that there is no such thing as relatively pissed.  So, I
didn't call cause I didn't want you to make me feel guilty and ruin my night.”  Notice he is my
EX-husband.
 
To the person who is the reason for me writing this rant, my concern comes not from the fact you
didn't come over and see me, but that you didn't come by and pick up the tape I made of
Smackdown and Tough Enough.  So, an email would be nice just letting me know you are
okay.
 
Guys, please help me out with this….I think this would make an excellent Masters Thesis.  And
women, please e-mail in your comments, just so that you-know-who doesn't think that I am the
biggest bitch to walk the planet.
