She then proceeded to deprive me of sleep until 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Her reasoning was that my friend should not have drunk so much and my first priority was her. 3 hours of her talking was enough to ensure next time i won't come home. There was no promise of my intentions, rather the statement i may stay home as i will have a possibly drunk mate in need of a place to lay his weary head. And while i'm here i might as well mention that he had just been dumped by his not so pleasant girl. Lisa, to her credit did come home… about 5.00am when i was asleep.

And sometimes ppl lose sight of the bigger picture. If she was staying home all by herself then I can maybe understand her frustration, but not in this instance. ;) Jaschocolate: hmm, trust is the key word there.

Whether he is really where he said he will be.. Gals also tend to place a lot of importance on promises made. Thus when one broke, the gal will remember it for a long time. And no point in deciding who's right or who's wrong cos real r/s dont work that way. It takes a lot of tolerance and hard work. :) Sometimes it is also the trust thing..

But yes I know not all girls are like that. But even if the reactions may differ by a certain degree, I think all women view agreements/promises differently than a typical man. ;) Devilish: hahah yeah especially when two of the boys were single. As for jealousy and suspicion, guys and girls can be as bad as each other. Jewelle: I don’t know what happened the next day hehe. But yes I know not all girls are like that.

On the other hand, how upset was the girl? Crying, screaming in anger, refusing to talk to him the next day? Of course this is too much lah and like in your earlier post on why you're still single (!), not ALL girls are this way :-) If she however simply tells him that she is not happy with the change in plans and started to question him why, that is not a big deal. I'd do the same and the guy shouldn't be defensive. So to me, he shouldn't think that she is over-reacting (unless if she cried buckets) and he should not expect to change plans without some kind of a reaction. We're only human.
