Why do men leave?

Why do men leave?

BiGDUG have found that men have ten happy places where they like to get away from it all including the bedroom, the bathroom, the garden and the pub. But they retire to these places for a reason and you can guarantee that it’s because of their relationship! We take a look at some of the reasons our men vanish off the face of the earth!

WHY MEN ESCAPE

Peace and quiet- Men don’t get our conversations sometimes so instead of pretending to listen-which they do so well- they just leave- a much more honest approach!

To avoid arguments- What better way than to have think of a defence when you can just leave? It’s ok it can be left until the last minute, that is of course the man mentality.

To do my own thing-Sometimes couples can do too much together so it’s no surprise that men like to have something of their own once in a while, just as we do.

Just a place to think- Taking some time out can let him feel remorse for being unnecessarily moody and doing nothing around the house.
To calm down- Better to reduce his stress levels away from you or things could get ugly, or the house could end up with holy doors and damaged couches.

I just like my own company- Some men are solitary creatures, especially if they are only children- they have learned to entertain themselves right from being young so why stop now?
To get some rest- Couples can be demanding- sometimes we expect too much from one another at the end of a busy working day or week- everyone needs rest even if there is a long list of jobs to get done.
Time to listen to or watch sport- Most men love it and it gives them a chance to kick back with a beer and watch some mindless TV.

Have a quick nap- A power nap is the best thing ever once you hit your late twenties- so we can’t begrudge our men of one when we so readily take them ourselves, (except if it’s in the middle of sex!)

To have a chance to be creative- Whether its knocking down a wall, or tidying the garage- changing the scenery of the house is creative in their world I guess! It’s not really a hobby that we condone though!
To get out of helping with chores- Men often feel the need to go to the toilet when you get back from the supermarket so they don’t have to put the shopping away, or suggest that you make tea and then leave the room. Funny that….
To avoid the visitors- It’s our house so we should be a united front when people come over but somehow when we get visitors it’s like we are single again all of a sudden.

Just to get away from the partner in general- We love you but sometimes you are hard work and we accept that we are the same, so some time apart does us both the world of good. 'I can’t live with or without you'- no truer words have ever been sung!
The partner is nagging me- The only reason we nag is because you are not doing what we ask you too- so just do it and you won’t have to leave or endure any more nagging- it’s that simple!
To avoid the mother-in-law- We have to endure yours at regular intervals too- but why do we get the double whammy when you can barely even bother with your own mother?

To watch something online- And we all know what that means- it’s ok the last thing we want to see is our partner bashing one out to some porn on his phone. Just as long as he doesn’t replace sex with you for it!
To make a private call- To his bit on the side, to his mate- for it’s not cool to speak in front of us to either is it?
My partner is hogging the television- If it’s not something about war, sport or Family Guy then most men are not interested in anything else on TV, so they venture off doing anything else until their  partner is in bed and they have free reign of their favourite channels.
My partner is watching reality TV- As a rule- men hate reality TV- it’s too repetitive and the people on it are annoying, so he might use that time to go elsewhere so he doesn’t have to endure their whiney voices.

To check social networks in peace- There is a temptation to think you are being avoided when your man sits on Facebook while you are telling him about your day- so by going to his safe place he knows that he won’t be accused of ignoring you.
To avoid my partner’s friends- He loves you but doesn’t necessarily understand your friends so goes out with his when they all land so he doesn’t have to show his disinterest in them.
To get away from the stresses of a big event/hosting- At a house party or dinner hosted by you both sometimes a couple of minutes in the kitchen with a drink can just help you to reengage and push away any comments that have angered you from your guests. As long as your alternate they will never know!

To text someone- Whether it’s a mate, family member or sadly sometimes his other woman- texting appears to be something that is readily done in the bathroom- ewwwwww!
