Someone mentioned nagging on another thread.


It occurred to me that maybe women and men have a different view of what is "asking" and what is "nagging"

How many times does a woman get to ask before the man thinks she is nagging?

Or is asking always nagging?

Or is there a special way to ask that never becomes nagging?


I do believe no woman REALLY wants to be seen as a nag to the man she loves heart beating

It's "nagging" when the woman is never satisfied, or never expresses any appreciation.

I live for pats on the back.

I will do almost anything for a woman I love, but if I don't feel appreciated, I promise I won't keep doing it for very long.

Tell me how awesome I am, tell me I'm appreciated, and I will run myself ragged just to hear it some more.

Great post. I totally agree with that. I think nobody likes to feel unappreciated.

I also wanted to say taht nagging never involves asking. Its someone repeatedly tells you to do something over and over again and hassles you until you do it. Yes, i know what you're going to say - if you did it the first time, you wouldn't have to be nagged constantly but everyone procrastinates tongue

I think nagging is just much a do about little things ... both men and women do it .. sooooooo no big deal.

But must say some people are terrible terrible nags .. ohh a known to me uncle is .. roll eyes annddd a cousins wife is ... uh oh

I think its endless non-appreciation and i want more sort of attitude topped with bad behavior and lack of concern for the other persons feelings or negativism and complaints day and nite ..

But when u are many years or months in to a relation and u know each other toooo well .. a little adjustment with each others attitudes can prevent a whole lot of frustration induced nagging.

I do not nag.

Plus, I do not spend hours getting ready.

I can be showered, made up, in 30 minutes.

Nagging is a term, if a man has to be asked more than once to do something, then I will get another man into do it.

nagging is what men say women are doing if they ask them nicely, to do the thing they have been asking them to do a hundred times already and they havent done it. If you don't want a woman ( or man- goes both ways) to 'nag' at you , then just effing DO IT!!!!laugh
