Know Your Man: Gadgets Fanatic
Who needs women when you have gadgets? ~ Paul Force
To attract men, I wear a special perfume...it's called "New Car Interior." ~ Rita Rudner
We like people more than we like things. Men like things, the more, the merrier. This is an important difference and we must learn to appreciate it. They love to browse catalogs, the Internet, and stores that sell stuff. It is thrilling for them to go to a computer store, say, and check all the new gadgets put recently on the market. They go to a hardware store and may spend hours lost in paradise.
They get all excited with new toys: cars, electronic gadgets, mechanical devices, etc. These things provide them with opportunities to experiment with some stuff. That is why they start several projects and not necessarily finish them when they get tired. They do things for the sake of trying them out, very much like pure science.
And, even if their enthusiasm is short-lived, it is still something to be cherished. Just like we do with people, when they are done with adoring one thing, they will begin adoring something else. Variety is good.
My friend Tom has a garage filled with stuff that he bought, used perhaps once, and let rest. His enthusiasm is aroused not by the possible uses that his gadgets entail, but by the simple reason that he feels good thinking that one day he might use each for a different project.
What matters to him is the thought that there is a future, not only for these possibilities, but also for time. His gadgets are the expression of his wish for immortality. One day he says.
The issue of immortality is very dear for men, for than for women. It also brings out the issue of eternal youth filled with vibrancy and endless energy.
A Word of Advice:
Ladies: Let them be.
Gents: Every so often separate some stuff that you havent used in, say, one to two years and give it away to charity. If you had a garage sale, you could make some friends as well, though there will be no charity. Also, when she complains you never finish anything, tell her you are a man of ideas and that you like to prove that things will work, without necessarily finishing the whole product.
