This commercial got me thinking. Why are women so stupid they would ask something like this?
I have had a few girlfriends ask before and when they say "I won't get mad", they are lying!
Any women on here that know why you bother to ask silly questions? When you know you don't want to hear the answer.

My favorite is, "If you could change one thing about me, what would it be?" You know there's no right answer and you know they have a whole list of things ready to spout out if you return the question.
You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't. Women seem to be good at trapping hapless males with these questions.
I found that if you just refuse to say anything at all, not only are you giving the BEST answer, but it's completely driving her nuts in the process. My ex-girlfriend hated it when I didn't give her answers to stupid questions like that. Drove her mad...

The only correct answer to that is:
"I'd have met you sooner"
Anything other than that and you're looking for trouble.

That's when you say exactly which friend, and exactly why, spare no details.
Then when she gets mad, just say, well don't ask me that question, because it's ######ed.
I am not a fan of those games, which is why i would probably answer that way.
Unless she has an ulterior motive to asking that question...

Stupid isn't the correct term. Deceitful is more like it. Women are smart, don't kid yourself. But in an evil way. If a woman asked me a question like that I'd start questioning her just like she would me if I was dumb enough to answer it. To me that's the ultimate form of her looking for a reason to dump you or else she's very insecure. "Well if you like her so much why don't you just go be with her!" And you know that's what she'd say if you said one of their names.
Worst thing about a question like that is you can't even say, "I'd rather be with no one but you," because the simple fact she even asked you it should send you the warning signal that she'll only take a line like that as a backhanded compliment. There's no proper route to go with a question like that. Even if you said it differently like, "I don't want to be with any of your friends," her response almost certainly will be, "You don't like my friends?" If a woman asks you a question like that, it's time to end it. Any answer given will be twisted in way it can be used against you, possibly for the rest of your life. You don't want that.

Quagmire on a date with the Bachelorette, in his mother's trailer. A mangy cat whines.
Quagmire's mom: (shouting off-screen): Glenn, would you feed mittens?
Quagmire: Mittens has food in his bowl!
Quagmires' mom: That's old food!
(cat meows)
Quagmire: Mittens, shut up! Mittens shut up!
Quagmire's Mom: Don't you talk to Mittens that way. Mittens is a member of this family.
Quagmire: Mom if you want this three-way to happen, you're gonna have to change your tone.

My favourite is the, "You know you can tell me" and there is no way out of it so you are honest and get the, "See, I told you that you could tell me." Then at some later, totally unrelated moment perhaps months later, BAM, and she pulls that nugget out.
Even if you don't get get in trouble at the time, you WILL get in trouble.
Here honey, just take this hand grenade and pull the pin at some future moment of your choosing.

Don't forget the classic "Does this make me look fat?"
Verbal minefield. One wrong word and KABOOM!
See, to me, I don't understand this. why would a girl want you to lie to her, if those jeans made her look fat? Wouldn't she want to wear jeans that make her look smaller?
So I would say "Yes, they look you make fat".

You have to think selfishly when answering questions from a woman. You don't think about how it effects her because Lord only knows how she will take it. You must think about how your answer will effect you and only you. In other words, "What is the one chance in one hundred this doesn't end up with me on her list, again?" Honesty is NOT the best policy.
After watching "Chuck and Larry" on DVD the other night, in which Kevin James' character is a widower, my wife asked me "If I were to die, would you ever get married again?"
I said "no."
She then exclaims, "Well, I would want you to be happy..."

How you answer these questions depends on the person. Some want honesty, others want complimentary white lies. I wouldn't ever ask anyone, let alone a boyfriend, if I looked fat in something, because I have eyes. I know when I look fat in something. I don't need, nor want, confirmation from a third party. However, if I were to ask, yeah, I would want honesty. I want honesty in any situation and to any question I ask. I might end up upset or hurt by the answer but I still, in the end, want honesty.
I think that might be where men get annoyed with women. We say we want honesty, you give us honesty, and we get upset. But remember, just because I want honesty, doesn't mean I am immune to the answer you give me. You tell me I look fat, I am not going to say, "thanks," and quickly move on. I wouldn't like it, but I wouldn't take it out on the person that told me.
And let's not act like all women do this or that only women ask these types of questions. I have been asked, and I know girls that have been asked, if it is big enough for them or if size matters, etc., so it's not just women asking these types of no-win questions.
(Anyways, sorry for the long answer. I just felt like ranting a little)
