I don't know why
Men just confuse me
On minute they are talking to you
The next they are ignoring you
I just don't get it
The one minute they say Hello
The next they look at you
Like stay away from me
Or they are all smiling at you
Then they give you this mean look
Then I am like whoa
What did I do
Men just confuse me
It is quite sad
Sometimes I am even confused by my boyfriend
I don't get that

Cold hands means a warm heart

Yes men are an enigma at times. The best part is they don't get it either...

Julie...
as a woman who has raised 2 sons to be men... I can tell you with some certainty that
The answer is... that they don't understand why they do that either...
just as they don't understand why it takes us so long to make up our minds about things.
And thats the whole beauty of why we are attracted to each other.  If we took away the mystery and we knew too much, it would spoil all the fun... so as Sy says... just enjoy!
BTW... this was a cute poem.

I don't even try to understand men...or women for that matter. Not even myself! Just accept.

I don't understand men either and I'm a man.   Hey, women are just as confusing, but I like 'em that way.  It helps to keep me on my toes.

I don't understand women either...LOL nor myself at times..and men they are little boys at all ages... so let them be and love them as confused as they might be.

(sigh) I think women too can be like that quite often, but I understand what you mean! Some men can indeed be so selfish but I know Liam and some others don't mean to make you feel bad, they just have priorities of their own and they have a lot on their minds too and time will finally answer all those questions! (big hugggssssss) May patience bring you great joy, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Julie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

the funny thing is...when I was your age..
eons ago...I wasn't thinking about how
they (women) were confusing to me....I was
just trying to figure myself out some....

And, for the record...I still haven't figured
it all out,  me or them...  I have learned
to try to not read too much into what I
perceive....maybe you just need to do that
and let yourself grow as you are,  not
thinking you are why they, the men are as
they are...cause I guarantee you, it ain't
you....It is them... Men are creatures that
were born to defend, protect,  charge into
the flaming arrows,  take no quarter...etc..
And then a woman comes along....Sheeesh,
overload!!

Good luck and thanx for the poem...lots of
thought here..

And men think women are confusing!!

If you ever figure them out, let all us women know.

I liked this a lot.  Hugs, Marti

Every now and then take a good look at something not made
with hands -- a mountain, a star, the power of the ocean.

Sometimes, I don't understand men either!

But, how could I? We don't speak the same language 'cause, "Men Are From Mars, and Women Are From Venus"!

You're right-they baffle me too. I've got two boys I raised to be men, and they are puzzles to me. Just enjoy them when you can, and call them names the rest of the time.

AHHHHH confusing are we?
make scence much do we?
we confuse everyone,
Cleaning out and empty closet
drinking from an empty glass,
this is how we will forever be

A person who claims to understand a member of the opposite sex will lie about other things.
