General question for the gals out there (and guys if you know, chime in)
So, recently at work, i made a joke, with a friend, while at lunch, with a gal from our office. Anyways, it was about that stupid but funny geico commercial with elmer fudd...you know the one at the end where he says, awe this diwector stawting to wub me da wong way...

Anyways, i didn't think about it at the time, cause we were just talking about our youth, and the cartoons we used to watch, and that came to mind...but immediately after i said it, i saw the gal didn't laugh...and i realized that she had a problem with her "R's" the same way good ol' elmer does...

oh shit.

so, now it's been a couple weeks, and she's still giving me the cold shoulder, ignoring me, and doing the "i pissed at you and want you to know it" kinda thing for me...

...and so my question is...how long can gal's hold grudges for? regardless of how silly and meaningless the grudge is about, i've found in life some gals can get over things in 1 week (which is extraordinarily long in guy-terms, we can get over things with the flip of a channel...). and some gals get over things in months...which can really sux. what's the percentage of gals who fall into this category?

thanks :)

she needs to get over herself. as if you were doing it on purpose to mock her. you can't go through life trying to please anyone. she'll probably never really like you again now.

I am a female and I wanted to let you know that there was nothing wrong in what you said. People are so hyper sensitive and easily offended. The only way not to piss someone off is to take a vow of silence.

To answer your question, a woman can and will hold a grudge forever. And it can bite you in the ass just when you least expect it.

You might go along thinking everything is just fine and wham! She gets you.

The best advice I can give would be to approach her and say something like this:

I have noticed a tension between us and I was concerned that I might have in someway offended you. If I did, it was not intentional because I think you are really nice and I would never want to hurt your feelings.

That will probably be enough. If she is any kind of a decent woman, she will let it go once she realized that you were not taking aim at her speech impediment.

Even if you SHOULDN'T have to say it. It might be worth it in the long run. Just one of those things in life you have to do sometimes to smooth the way.

Some can hold grudges a good long time, but they can get over it if you send a card asking, what you did wrong and if you did something wrong, you didn't mean to. That you really like talking to her.

Since you didn't know you would be telling the truth. Don't
bring up her problem.

I agree, if she cant handle the little "r" bullshit, there is no telling what else she has hidden in the closet.

If there was nothing else then no problem, but seems to me that she is using this "r" bullshit to shut out.

If you really want to pursue this "r" chick then wait until she feels (bullshit) comfortable with you.

fk I hate relationships and games. Dont know why most girls do it, guess its the "dad syndrome" thing. Always having to prove yourself, fk that.

Women are pros at holding grudges. You know that you meant no harm, if she cant cant get over herself then thats her prob not yours.

If it continues then give her some real ammo to be upset about. How about "are your blow jobs better or worse with your speach impediment".

... Well ever hear the phrase 'Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned'?

Woman's brain is wired to remember insignificant details that most men forget in a day or a week. Woman can recall these events with startling clarity 10, 20, 30 + years well past the event and can actually live the pain and emotional distress of this event when they recall it.

If she was your SO/Wife/Girlfriend this horrible faux-pas will be worked into every single argument for the rest of your life (hell even when you divorce them you will still hear about it when you see them and don't be too certain that death is an easy escape either).

If she is not your SO/Wife/GF the consequences of the crime you committed will spread through the female community. If other women were present when you committed this crime, be assured that they will not let you forget your faux-pas. Don't be surprised that other women 'judge you' as dating material based on this crime. Yeah I know, how did they know - women talk, and the speed of that talking is in proportion to how much you hurt the feelings of one of them.

If the woman doesn't immediately chastise you, you are in "vewy, vewy, deep twouble". The punishment is exponential to the amount of time she is silent on the matter. If she is silent for an hour the punishment will be ten times greater than if she had immediately chastised you. If she has been silent for a day, then you have to calculate the hours, each hour the punishment is raised on the power of ten from the previous hour. Much like the Richter Scale, however the Richter scale has an upper limit. Punishments from women have no upper limit, at least not discovered by men. Well maybe they have been discovered but no male has lived to report back.

In all honesty it appears you have lost any possible credence with this particular female. Don't be surprise if the cold shoulder sticks around for a few years.

The reality is you are getting off 'lucky' if all you are getting is the cold shoulder. It could be far much worse and far more devastating.
