These 24 Women Are Dumbfounded By Their Discoveries About Men After Living With One

Article created by: Rugilė Baltrunaitė

They say you don’t truly know someone until you’ve lived with them. And in most cases, it is true. Once you’ve seen a person being their authentic selves at home, whether while passed out on the couch and involuntarily passing gas or having their eccentric eating habits on full display, can you get a good gauge of their personality.

In this case, a few women are sharing what they’ve learned about the male species after cohabitating with one. For many of them, seeing the genital complexities and behavioral quirks of the opposite s*x (among many other things) has opened their eyes in more ways than one.

To our female readers, feel free to share any similar anecdotes you may have. Guys, feel free to enlighten them.

That the right one can be so awesome to live with. Equal (and sometimes he does more) housework, things I’d drop hundreds to have fixed normally he can just take care of. I haven’t taken out trash in about 8 years. How sensitive they can be (huge bonus because I grew up being told they were brick walls and no feelings. Awful thing to perpetuate) and how supportive they can be. I didn’t know they don’t all fit into the million stereotypes they’re given. Exclusively raised around the worst of the worst, so it was constant pleasant surprises. Feels too good to be true most days!

Man sitting on couch feeling refreshed by fan, illustrating discoveries about men after living with one. How little they seem to think about their own comfort or try to problem solve around lower-stakes things. My husband is constantly pleased and impressed by things I do around the house or for him to increase our/ his level of comfort. It just doesn’t even occur to him that he can change his environment or buy himself something that might improve his quality of life. I’ve known other men like this too. One of my favorite examples is a male friend complaining about how hot his new apartment was getting, so I suggested buying a fan, and the look of confusion this man gave me… never even occurred to him there might be a solution to his problem.

A woman looking thoughtful while a man smiles beside her at a candlelit dinner, reflecting discoveries about men. That they do appreciate the candles, rugs and things we add to our space that make it “home”. My husband had two sets of simple cotton, gray sheets as a bachelor and now sleeps on sheets of bamboo or Egyptian cotton. He would never have bought those things for himself but he loves that I do.

Man standing at a toilet in a small bathroom illustrating discoveries about men after living with one. I didn’t realise how common it was for men not to use toilet paper after urinating.

I brought it up to him. He asked, “why do you think there are no toilet paper rolls at urinals?” My mind was blown. I had never, ever considered that.

They really mean what they say. They are straight forward with their questions and answers. They communicate in a different way than women.
