That Damn "Male Ego" Shit (aka Bathroom Thoughts)

Male Ego. You've heard about it all the time, and I'm guessing if you've actually bothered to read this far, you've been a victim in one way or another. Bear in mind that not EVERY guy is like this, and the main reason that I'm writing this is because of f*ckups that i've discovered in MYSELF.

As you can see from the title, this is something that just crossed my mind while I was in the shower. (Funny how that is, isn't it? Good ideas seem to hit me during the most unexpected moments. Watched something about it once on Discovery, but now I'm digressing again)

Anyway, the first thing that came to mind is how guys just seem to take their girlfriends/fiancees/wives for granted. I mean, these girls are really showing their love and affection for their man, and the guy feels that's just it. That it justifies them to stay with the girl, not really doing much for her in return. And you know what? Most of the time, the girl sticks around for a while longer.

Then there's the all-time favorite, the infamous "ego-boost". The most common form of this is the "ego-boost questions" or EBQ for short. Examples of which would be "Did you have fun?" (after a date), "How were things with your previous boyfriend?" and other questions regarding previous relationships, or even downright straightforward questions such as "How's my kissing?" or even "Am I good in bed?"
And each one of these times they're hoping to hear something good about themselves, or in the case of previous boyfriends, something bad about others, and usually the girl usually dutifully obliges. Kinda like the guy saying, "humor me" and the girl going, "okay"

Another thing is when a guy is told by his friends, "You're so lucky to be dating the hottest girl in class.", or "You're one lucky guy," while staring at said girlfriend's rack.
I mean, why can't he be lucky simply because she loves him? Because she accepts him for all his flaws? Why is it that the number one thing that he likes about her is her measurements, or how often kiss and/or fuck?

Why those things, instead of the way you can hear how much she loves him just by calling his name? Or the way she only has one dimple when she smiles? Or how when she cries, you can tell she's really upset by the way her lips tremble, or that she's angry when they're in a tight purse. How she repeats herself when she's angry and they're having an argument. How no matter what she does with her hair, there's always a stray lock that ends up on her forehead.

How she simply loves her guy, despite the fact that he misses all these things.

Well, that about covers today's rant. Thanks for reading.
