Pandora's Box

Girls are regular pandoras.

Just try out this social experiment. Leave a gift-wrapped box - owner unknown - on the table and soon you'll have the girls gnawing their nails in curiousity. While the guys might leave it on the table untouched till a layer of impenetrable dust settles a year later.

Pandoras. They just can't stand a mystery lying around.

So a new boyfriend's like an enigmatic puzzle they can play with to find out what actually makes him tick. Why else would they find such wicked delight in trying to pry every secret out of their boyfriends' muddled male minds? How often have we heard of girls going about asking their boyfriends oddly personal questions only to leave wailing with their hands wrung after the honest reply?

Snoopy Sally : During our breakup, he slept with Mindy!
Paul : So?
Snoopy Sally : But she's my sworn frenemy!
Paul : So? You're broken up. You knew he dated around! In fact you asked him to.
Snoopy Sally : He didn't have to date her!
Paul : You broke up. You didnt have to ask either.
Snoopy Sally : But I had to know!

Reminds me about the time my friend dug around in her hubby's drawers only to find his hidden stash of porn. Much to her puritanical dismay.

Curious to know what makes me tick?

So why ask about such torrid affairs if you're not prepared to know the sordid answers? Seriously, what straight boys do behind your backs? Or miles away in the red-light districts of Pattaya? Sometimes - at least if you want to retain any semblance of healthy respect for him - you're better off not knowing.

Me, I'm a right curious bastard! But even I know some things are better left unsaid. Ye old Victorian ladies had it right when it came to turning a blind eye to their husbands' past peccadiloes. I certainly wouldn't want to know if Charming Calvin had torrid orgies with rough trade in his sordid past.

Unless of course it was with someone extra hawt. And then I'd want uncensored home videos in high definition. But then I'm kinda kinky and accepting when it comes to raw sex.

The girls I know? Not so. The very thought of their significant others ( even after a break! ) going out carousing with other ladies would have them biting nails.

So why keep pestering the man to kiss and tell all? Curiousity killed the cat, ladies.
