Relationships help: Question: Women take care of their sick men and children. - Help.com

I know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Men are bad at being ill.
Woman battle on..
Men need to be asked to help u out… I dont know why..
It suxs huh.

You chose the wrong man.

I tended to my wife’s every need when ill. I wiped her *** when she couldn’t. I made her anything she could keep down. Now I tend to my girlfriend’s every need.

Don’t blame “men” simply because you made a bad choice and keep reinforcing the behaviour of the man in your life with poor communication.

Get “Men, women & relationships” by John Gray and take responsibility for your situation.

hello.

i don’t think that’s the case for everybody. and i’m a woman. :)

when i get sick, it’s actually men who dote on me. from my dad and my brother to my male friends. when i’m feeling down (and i tend to hide it), both my male and female friends are able to tell.

you just got unlucky i guess. or maybe you need to ASK for help. a lot of men think we women are invincible and strong (which is true). but it never hurts to ask for help. :)

aah the dreaded manflu. next time he gets sick, treat him exactly as he treats you when youre sick. and when he moans his *** off about it-say well, this is what you think i am worth when im sick, and as equals in this relationship its obviously what you need to. then smile sweetly and shake your booty as you walk away :)

I will not have you criticizing my relationship

What do you expect when you publicly dump on “men”? When you make uncategorical inflammatory statements you are going to be corrected. Calling it “venting” doesn’t change what you did. It reeks of poor communication and martyrdom. If this is the way you are at home, your man will certainly keep his distance.

Stop being defensive and own your own piece of this problem.
