| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 10/27/2007 7:02:40 AM | Cars are loyal. Women are not loyal. A car understands the vows of matrimony...Till death do us part..for better or for worse,,,for richer or poorer,,,for sicker or healthier.
A car understands that. But a woman does not understand that. A car is ready when we are, as to where a woman is not ever ready. A car has financial demands, but take note the car gives back what is put into it. A woman never puts back what is put in here
A car is dependable, a woman is not. A car never loses its figure or gets fat. A woman loses her figure and gets fat. This is why i man know that his real love and devotion comes from his car or cars.
My loyal car was so understanding and loving it drove me to divorce that freak i was married to, and the car was still so pretty when we got home and is still loyal. We..me and may car live happily ever after
And let no man of tramp put usunder that i have joined with my machine and my heart | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 10/27/2007 11:16:43 AM | Wow.... bad experience with women?!! Let's see... I am a very loyal person... to my family, friends, and the man I'm with. I stick by my loved ones through thick and thin and always have their backs. As for vows... my ex-husband cheated on me because he wanted someone he could walk all over.. and that was NOT me.
I am always ready to go wherever I'm going on time... and I am usually early. If you're talking about being ready for sex, I usually am - if I'm with the right person. Financially, I can support myself and basically supported my ex. In a relationship, whether it be with a friend or a man, I always put a lot of effort into it.. and in many cases, don't get back what I give. (which, by the way, isn't that important to me) I am a very dependable person. If I say I'm going to do something, I do it. If I say I'm going to be somewhere, I'm there.
And yes, some women lose their figures and get fat - but so do a lot of MEN!!! How can you get love and devotion from an inanimate object? Hope you have a happy life with your car.........
Oh, one more thing.... yes, I'm a woman and I like girlie things, but I am in no way obsessed with shopping (hate the mall), clothes (yes, like to look good, but...), makeup, shoes, or purses. So there.  | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 10/27/2007 3:07:20 PM | If it has teats or tires, it's bound to leave you on the side of the road at one point or another.
Cars are independance, some are large, red phallic symbols, but others can be for no other reason than to drive something that *doesn't look like every other jellybean on the road.*
I'm 40 and have had more vehicles than I am years old. I've had three new vehicles in the last 12 months, the most recent new one I traded for a right hand drive 13 year old one with a big, red GT-R in the grill.
If I'm working on the car, please don't take it as an insult if I ask you to leave me alone until I'm done.
Oh, but, yeah, my daily driver is a Civic, so, to each their own. | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 10/27/2007 3:37:05 PM | Two, two, two questions in one. Actually, there's four. Question number one:
So, why is it that when a guy is working on his car, he becomes totally focused on it? Oblivious to everything else around him? Because he doesn't want to fuk it up. Question number two:
why do some men need a woman to tell them that she is in love with him? I thought that was a girl thing?! Because when he's spending his money on you, instead of his car, he wants to know.
Ahhhh, its not a girl thang anymore. Men need love too. | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 11/17/2007 8:43:01 AM | Because if you accidentally drop a spring clip down the intake manifold it creates a whole lot more work.
I can't answer the second question right now, I'm too busy working on my car. | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 11/23/2007 3:46:08 AM | What is wrong with taking some pride in ownership of our vehicles. Most of my life I've driven used (like REALLY used) vehicles, so now that I was able to get a new one I want to look after it. I like keeping it clean inside and out. I want it to last a lot of years, and not end up a pile or rust and bolts.
2 dates seems kinda early to be getting an "i love you" out of anyone, but it IS nice to know. | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 11/24/2007 1:55:56 AM | | Cars have got to be the best thing ever invented, the real love of my life, my white knight was always there for me - kept me safe, took me home, waited for me rain, hail or shine. The sight of my little car would lift my spirits so much, no matter how bad I felt, sometimes I would get up in the night just to look out the window at it. Can anything on earth ever be as faithful, reliable and giving as a car? Maybe a dog, but thank God for cars. I used to always wish I could sleep with it, sleeping in the back of that little car - I felt a warmer loving embrace than I ever felt from any man ever. Somehow standing next to the washing machine listening to the 'heartbeat" just doesn't give that same beautiful warmth to the heart. Material things just positively glow with love that I haven't found in the reptile hearts that live in men. Cars have spirit I am sure of it, men - I'm not so sure... | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 11/24/2007 3:19:12 AM | | OP. Cars are something that you can spend time and money on, see, feel and appreciate the results and of course they also serve a practical purpose. Who services your car? Do you even like the car you drive? Do you feel safe and 100% certain about whats going on with your car? Cars are a guy thing...we don't have great obsessions with shoes and apparel. Which is obviously a girl thing. But a similarity exists. It makes a statement about who you are and what your about if you want it to. | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 11/25/2007 6:33:15 AM | Men are gonna men.....It's a sense of pride. It's the way we were brought up, made, etc. It's any different than alot of, not all women, being obsessed with changing or fixin men, when there is nothing wrong with em... | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 11/27/2007 7:27:36 AM | | Men have passions (or at least a passionate man has) just like women. I am passionate about shoes and matching handbags, does that make me a bad person? probably, but it also makes me HUMAN and real humans have passions, and if they squash those passions they become less of a person, less of an individual, less exciting. | |

four other friends can get in my car and ride it...can't say the same about a woman.
Oh, I don't know---SOME women have been known to be a bit too familiar with the old railroad call "All aboard.......!!"
Young guys asks older guy if he can borrrow his somewhat vintage truck for some local chores. Older guy says: "son---there's two things I don't loan out---my truck and my girlfriend. You can throw a rod in both of them without even trying!" | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 11/28/2007 7:15:06 PM | To OP. #1 It's his hobby,respect it, give him the space he needs and don't bug him while he's busy with it. If you become an obstacle,he will resent you for it. #2 Whatever you do, don't fake an interest in it. Guys can sense it from a mile away and,at least for me, it's very much grounds for dumping the person. | |

OP, fortunately for me clothes and shoes are my passion, and once I have purchased them, I don't have to keep up the maintenance of them, wax them, fix them, polish them etc (except for my shoes occasionally). Cars take more time to look after, but they are no less important to some men than keeping up a sexy appearence is to some women, and if you try to stop them, you might as well drain the life right out of them. If you take away a persons passion, you are taking away everything child like within them, and they become dull and boring IMO. If you want a man with a different passion which costs less time and effort such as stamp collecting, then you should choose this type of man in the first place. | |

| Why are guys so obsessed with their cars? Posted: 2/7/2008 11:30:25 AM | My dentist (an attractive young woman) was working on my teeth yeaterday. She was completely focused on only my teeth while she was working on them.
When she gave me a few minites for the anesthetic to take effect she stepped into the next room and I heard her chatting to a couple of friends in there.
But when she was working on my teeth she was completely focused.
It's not a guy thing. Its simply that this is how some jobs have to be done. | |
