twitter moms: the influential moms network

This morning I had to keep myself from slapping my husband again (just kidding) because he couldn't find the kids gloves. They are in the same place since 5 years and I wonder how it is possible that he can't find them when they are in front of his nose.

Even if I tell him exactly where to find them, he tells me they are not there. In some mysterious way the gloves reappear when they hear me approach LOL. I could even find them blindfolded.

THis drives me completely nuts. Guys rather ask then look and even if they look they don't see it. GRRRRR.

Anyone with similar experiences ??

HAHAHA,
this is so my hubby. He can even call me up and ask me whether he should turn right or left at the junction infront to get to his destination. He expects wifey not only to know where everything is in the house but also have a virtual street map added inside. :)

My husband stares directly at an object and still can't find it.

worst is their reaction when you show them where it is. "ooohhh yeah but you told me left and it is right...." grrrrr

Wow, very impressive for a guy to trust his wife in coordination on the street LOL
Isn't this the typical male domain ?? - I am bad with regard to finding my way around without navigation equipment.

They are useful for other things. Mine helped me get my tires inflated this a.m. I can do it myself, but it was nice not to have to kneel on the cold ground. He's a sweetie, despite his male pattern blindness. **g**

Ladies, Men are so much alike! LOL. My first husband had a stroke and afterward was looking in the refrigerator for something (that was in plain sight) and he'd say he couldn't see it. Turned out that he really couldn't; the MRI showed he had lost his center vision and had a 'center block'. All that time I thought he was faking it or playing dumb. After that I was more understanding. Our son used to go around looking for something. I used to always know where all his stuff was when he was little, but after getting so tired of telling him where something was I started saying "It's where ever you left it". Now he says that to me, sometimes. lol. I have to say though, Men are basically LAZY. There are some exceptions, of course, but they depend on Women to do everything, remember everything, and bring them everything. I don't know any married woman who hasn't complained about her husband... but don't we love them when they're wonderful!

Yes I too suffer from this problem. My hubby is a truck driver so I can only guess that something has to be the size of a warehouse for him to find it.

let's hope he finds his stuff in his own truck. You are not there to help him find anything there...

of course he can't find them because he is not able to see it without them LMAO

LOL. My truck driver husband is very meticulous; a Virgo Perfectionist and has to do everything just so or he can't stand it. He needs reading glasses for up-close reading and must have 5 or 6 pair of them, but he doesn't put them back when he's done with them, by the computer, in the shop, in the pickup truck, in the bedroom, by the recliner, etc., so he can never find them when he wants them. LOL. He's always looking for those darn glasses.

(LOL) Yep! My girlfriend tried to tell me to wait until he's in his 60's .
I replied I'll wait, I'm in no rush I have enough issues to manage
while he's in his 50's.

Sometimes I think they don't feel they have to use their brain
because we're always there and they can use ours. (just kidding)

My mother calls it 'cant-find-itis' and she said it stricks most men in their lives shortly after marriage when they think their new wives have become their mother. Mine suffers from both cantfinditis and cantmembershit. =)
