Why do we......?

Feel free to add any question here you would like to know an answer to or just are noting how silly we as humans are!!

Why do we say something totally rude, cruel, or hurtful to someone we love, then when they react to it with silence and weirdness, ask with a "loving" smile on our face "You okay Baby?" Then when they tell us no cuz they are hurt, etc, we get more pouty towards them, and no one talks? Where is the heartfelt "I'm sorry!" at? Travis Tritt states "This romance goes down to foolish pride."


Well, there it is. What is your why do we question?

You got me on this one. I think that once you attain something, you are always looking for the upgrade. Maybe it really is about the chase.

let's keep it out of the club then: Why do we run the vaccuum cleaner over something 3 or 4 times, pick it up, examine it, then put it back on the floor and give the vacuum one more try?

Because we are human and fallible.

We do ...before we think it through !

But, not all of us are the same.

making room is the reason America is pleasingly plump. Saving room is what we should do.

Why do we spend more money than we originally said was too much when we entered the store to get things on sale? I know, not so much a guy thing, and yet.....

Because the driveway is ment to get to the garage or house and a parkway turns into a parking lot twice a day.

Why do we say "I knew that was going to happen" after the fact instead of stopping ahead of time and preventing "that" before hand?
