Last weekend is a super fruitful day. We have purchased our refrigerator and washing machine, and most importantly, ended the nightmare researches on these machines.
I promise you, fellow men, the most tiring thing in the whole process is to “select”.
Select the brand
Select the model
Select the shop to get the best deal
But the core of this energy draining process is to convince your wife that this is the one best deal.
At least, it applies to me.
And I consider myself lucky because my wife did the research on brand selection (for 1 hour) and narrowed it down to 2 brands.
(…which eventually is the same brand which I told her from my experience: Mitsubishi is good)
(…which eventually is the same brand after we went to 2 expo and look)
I would consider myself not only lucky but blessed because my wife also did the model selection (for a day)
(…which is because she likes the silver ion thing)
(…which contradicts the initial selection conditions)
I am not only blessed but is also truly loved by my wife because my wife believed in me when I said LET’s BUY THIS!
(…which is exactly the time when she is also tired and hungry)
(…which is also the same time when she finally believe in my explanation on the mechanical limitations in my house)
So to conclude, we learn that:
- Woman enjoys the process of never ending shopping and comparing. I believe that it is in their DNA, which must be inherited from the cave-woman whom gathered fruits for the family. Most probably, they would compare the fruits on different tress, and may be, compete among themselves to get the biggest apple.
- Man just want to do buy the thing they set off to buy and bring it home. I believe that it must be a DNA characteristic inherited from cave-man, whom was responsible for hunting. As long as it is a deer, it does not matter it is fat or thin, JUST HUNT IT AND CARRY IT HOME! It is the same deer no matter it is made in China, Thailand, Japan or Germany. It is going to end up ON THE SAME FIRE.
- When you wife ask you to do some research, she meant that she just want more information IN CASE she wants it. Eventually, she follows her instinct and rules. But, a word of caution, YOU STILL HAVE TO DO IT and DO IT PROPERLY.
- Finally, just act accordingly and follow your wife’s direction, and you will survive.
If you have been reading till here and is secretly laughing in your heart because you are resonating to what I have written.
You have been tricked! You have failed!! You lousy shit.
If you have gone through similar purchase experience with your wife, this is because you have not constructed enough positive experience for your wife to trust you enough! You lousy thing. You must improve!
I love you, my wife. See, I am not one of them. What I have written is the exact opposite of how I felt. It is a totally fair and an enjoyable experience. YAHOO~~ Let’s shop for the stove and air-conditioning! WOOOO I love comparing deer!
