He thinks, She thinks


Have you ever wondered what is going on inside that head when you look at your spouse? Or why they are not seeing things the way you are seeing them? Men and women think so differently. It's kind of amazing that we are even able to communicate with each other, because our brains work so differently. 

He thinks: Why make the bed? Whether we make it or leave it, it's going to look exactly like this tomorrow morning. So let's just save ourselves the time and effort. 
She thinks: Why wouldn't you make the bed? It looks cleaner in here with it made. The sheets will be all gritty from leaving them uncovered and putting stuff on the bed throughout the day. And it won't be quite right getting into the bed at night and then trying to straighten the covers. 

He thinks: If the freezer is full of extra meals, why are we still “out of food” and having to do grocery shopping? Why is that food untouchable? Are we hoarding food?
She thinks: I’m about to have a baby and I will not always be up for cooking right away. So, we need to have plenty of options stored up for a while.

He thinks: We sat in the same room, doing separate things but we were together. Quality bonding.
She thinks: We sat in the same room, doing separate things and we hardly said a word to each other. Is something wrong??

He thinks: (When he wakes up) I need coffee. (At lunch time) I should get some food. (At dinner time) Wonder what we’re having.
She thinks: (When she wakes up) I need to make the coffee, and make sure that we have something for lunch. Oh, I need to grab the meat to thaw for dinner. Coffee’s done, I should grab a cup. Wait, I didn’t throw the towels in the dryer last night, better do that or we may not have any for showers. Kids are up, breakfast and milk. I never did grab that cup of coffee…. 

He thinks: ………………
She thinks: What is he thinking? He’s being so quiet? Is something wrong?

So, what are they thinking???
