Okay, guys, this one’s for you, well sort of. As a general rule, men loathe shopping. That’s especially true when it involves sitting outside a dressing room while their significant other tries on 100 different outfits. In all honesty, that doesn’t sound like much fun.
As for women, a lot of them simply want their loved ones to tag along so they can offer approval. So, to all you men out there, it’s not so much that your ladies want to show off potential buys but more like they want affirmation from you. Even with that insight, some men dread this kind of experience.
And if you need proof, just check out these 50 guys. Just looking at them, you can see how miserable they are.
1. He’d rather be in a snowstorm
And to prove it, he decided to stage “sit-in” … sort of. There’s good news and bad news. The good news is that he’s toasty warm … the bad news, he looks ridiculous.
2. Double shot of espresso
The look on this man’s face says it all. He’s shopping with his lady and he’s not happy about it. That calls for two cups of coffee … or perhaps he’s being a gentleman and holding hers while she’s in the dressing room.
He tried but failed. We’re guessing by this photo that he and his significant other have been shopping for a long time. And we mean a very long time.
You have to give this man a little credit. Instead of being on his cell phone, he opted to read the newspaper. But perhaps he’d be a little more comfortable if he sat down.
… or outside. This is one cool dude. Not only does he go shopping with his special lady but he also doesn’t mind embarrassing himself.
We’re starting to see a trend here. It seems as though the best way for a man to get a nap is to go shopping with his lady. If this guy ever wakes up, someone could serve him dinner right where he sits.
Look, people don’t mind when guys sleep while their women shop. They don’t even mind if they sleep with their mouths open. But exposing their bodies … that’s an entirely different story.
8. Now, this is dedication
Often, men will only go shopping if they know a chair and television are nearby. But not this one. He’s fine sitting on the floor while his lady shops.
In some cases, there is an upside. Here, you have two husbands out shopping with their wives. Fortunately, they found each other and have now become best friends — even if only for a few hours.
For this man, it’s all become too much. Guessing by his age, he’s been doing this for a long time. Sadly, all the shopping has finally taken its toll.
What do you want to bet this man gets a lot of looks everywhere he goes? After all, he has a keen resemblance to Einstein. For him, shopping is probably a little bit fun.
Not one but five men all went shopping with their ladies on the same day and at the same mall. But we have a question. Why are they all wearing identical blue shirts?
We’re not sure if this is a furniture store or the merchant is kind enough to provide comfortable loungers. Hey, if this is what shopping with a lady looks like, then it’s not all bad. They should be grateful they didn’t end up on the floor like the other man.
If you didn’t know any better, you’d swear these men were guarding the bikes. They’re positioned as perfect lookouts. Here’s an idea … while their ladies spend hours shopping, they could make a little side money for their service.
This man looks right at home. If it weren’t for the platform the chair’s sitting on, you might think he was sitting in his living room. That’s probably what he’s going for.
With a chair like that, it looks as though these guys are kings on a throne. Okay, maybe not. But that is a pretty cool place to wait for their ladies to finish shopping.
This man found a way to tolerate all his wife’s shopping trips. He takes a bottle of booze and glass along. By the end of the day, he doesn’t care what his lady bought or how much she spent.
Yes, you expect men to get comfortable. But this is taking things a little too far. Lying down on a pink couch, kicking his shoes off, and wearing that get up … he has no shame.
Hey, someone should write a song with that title. Oh, wait, they did. Honestly, we feel a little jealous this man has such an amazing couch to relax on.
20. Something went terribly wrong here…
…or more like several things went terribly wrong. It’s nice that this man doesn’t mind looking at items his wife wants to purchase. But we can’t get past his outfit.
Looking at this, you have to wonder what they talk about. Who knows, maybe they don’t talk at all. Perhaps they’re relishing quiet time they never get at home.
This photo makes you wonder what kind of store their ladies are shopping in. It looks pretty high-end. But wouldn’t there be a posh waiting area for the men?
If you looked up “cuteness overload” in the dictionary, this is what you’d like find. Come on, you know it’s adorable. If the women are wise, they’d use this photo for leverage.
…and who can blame him? For one thing, his wife has the cart loaded with goods, which means he’ll have to spend a lot of money. For another, he’s doing the one thing that makes him the most miserable … shopping with his lady.
The way this man sits so stoically, it makes you question if he’s a real person or a mannequin. If he’s not careful, some kid’s going to poke him to find out. That’ll make his bad day worse.
Don’t worry about this guy. He’s made a friend. The only problem is that no one can see him except this man.
This husband got so tired of shopping with his wife that he melted into her purse. Either that or he’s looking for some snacks. Then again, he might have a cell phone hidden inside to secretly watch his favorite sporting team.
A big yawn like that is an indicator that this man is ready to go. But we have the feeling his wife doesn’t even notice. Keep yawning, buddy, maybe she’ll catch on eventually.
When guys don’t want to go to any more stores, this is where they head. With all the lights and signs, this would make a great movie scene. Now, we just need to come up with a catchy title.
Doesn’t this look familiar? If this man was made of stone, you might mistake him for “the thinker.” But for now, he’s just a tired husband waiting for his wife to finish her shopping spree.
A lot of people think men gain weight because of their wives’ great cooking. Come to find out, that’s not it all. The excess pounds come from snacking for hours while the wife shops.
This guy is so miserable that he doesn’t even know where he’s at. Hopefully, if he stands in the middle of the mall, his lady will find him. The operative word here is … hopefully.
33. Settled in for the long haul
Men often find a comfy chair to plop down in. And many times, they fall asleep. This guy … he knows his wife all too well, so, he’s making himself right at home.
Did this man’s lady buy everything in the store? It sure looks like it. From the looks of it, he’s calculating the damage.
As far as this guy’s concerned, his woman can shop all she wants. He’s in no hurry. With a cozy chair and a good magazine, he’s perfectly fine, although probably miserable on the inside.
The lady is still going and it’s starting to get dark outside. We suggest this guy use those bags to make himself a bed. There’s a good chance he’s not going home any time soon.
You can see it on this man’s face. He’s trying to decide whether he should stay or go. We wouldn’t be surprised if his lady comes out and finds him gone.
Here’s another man who’s left the store to travel to a distant land, at least in his mind. Right now, he’s lying on a beach somewhere. Just relaxing while sipping on a cold cocktail.
Why not make shopping with the lady fun? That’s what this guy is doing. He’s playing a game of hide and seek … sadly, he’s the only player.
Wow, the body language speaks loud and clear. Not only is he miserable but possibly a little upset, as well. Although we’ll never know, we wouldn’t want someone giving us that look.
41. She thinks it’s funny
While this woman’s husband sleeps, she laughs. This poor guy is going to be the butt of many jokes. Who’ll get the last laugh when he takes her credit cards away?
Getting stuck in a store that sells stuffed teddy bears isn’t that bad. Think about it. This man could’ve ended up in the feminine hygiene department.
This is what you’ll find at most women’s dressing rooms. The men stand outside in a line waiting for their loved ones to perform a fashion show. What a pain for the guy who’s last in line.
It looks as though these men are in some kind of competition. Facing each other, the goal is to see who can stay awake the longest. Hmm … we wonder what the prize is?
Even Santa has to appease Mr. Clause. But it’s only fair. After all, he spends a lot of time preparing and delivering gifts for others so she deserves a trip to the mall.
That’s the way you do it. Start them out young and by the time they grow up and get married, they’ll love shopping with their wives. Not really, the only difference is they graduate from the floor to a chair.
No, this isn’t a human. Rather, it’s a bronze statue of a man sitting on a bench inside a store. It’s meant to honor all the guys who miserably wait while their ladies spend money.
48. What’s he looking at?
Is it the floor, an untied shoe, or maybe his dentures that fell out? Oh, wait. He’s not looking at anything, just taking a nap.
49. He’s got the shopping thing down pat
Okay, this man might be miserable but at least he’s super comfortable. Who wants to sit in a chair when you can lounge? We’ll give this guy two thumbs up.
Like many others, this man hates taking his wife shopping. But at least she chooses places with good scenery. He’s just one of many men who encourage their wives to take their time.
Okay, guys, this one’s for you, well sort of. As a general rule, men loathe shopping. That’s especially true when it involves sitting outside a dressing room while their significant other tries on 100 different outfits. In all honesty, that doesn’t sound like much fun.
