Why do women nag?

[Stumps]

Why do they keep nagging even after you have caved into their demands?
My GF and I are planning to get married in the near future. the downside to this is that I have to make up with her parents...but I reluctantly agreed to do so and now she wont stop whinging about it...by saying that I would make up with them I was hoping to have a moment of peace..but it just made it worse she is still going on..and on about it.
why do women do this?

Don't give in to teh press0re!

It's important to her so she keeps talking about it...
...only that girls don't realize that the more they keep talking (and nagging) about it, the LESS LIKELY guys are going to respond and actually do it...or they do it with greater reluctance...

...or they end up pissing you off so much that you just wanna leave and start again with someone else (only for that new girl to do that to you too...)

Its the only way to get you jackass guys to listen.

LOL

Nag back at her?

Or do what I did, "Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'll get right on it."

But I never do.

Women seem to instinctively try to achieve understanding and a sort of communal opinion through talking. When talking fails, they try more talking. They don't understand that men just don't work this way and constantly talking is perceived as laborous and tiresome.

thats why I agreed to make up with her olds...but she just doesn't seem to listen, and I nag back she tells me to stop being a pyshco or I'm trying to start a fight and if i ignore her, I'm being a pig..I can't win damn it

It is just the first stage of the master plan to gain all the hand in the relationship............

You agreed to make up with her parents so you could shut her up. She may not be able to verbalize what is going on with her feelings, but I am betting your lack of sincerity is bothering her, hence the continued nagging. Your getting along with her parents is important to her.

unfortunately for her I could live quite happily if a truck or tank ran over her mother..I get along ok with her father..but her mother...god damn what a beast!..and I tried to make a big effort in the beginning but i couldn't take the constant critism from her mother, and when i finally retalliated..I'm the bad person.
Now her mother wants to make up and I'm just suposed to be OK with it..I don't think so

I am not a marriage counselor but I would ask if you have expressed your feelings to your girlfriend on this? And then the next question would be, what needs to happen for you to forgive the mother (or at least let go of the issue and be civil). You are not just marrying your girlfriend, you are marrying into a family and you are going to need to work this out because you are going to be stuck with these people for a long, long time. Anyway, it is just my opinion and I may very well be blowing smoke out of my arse but I can pretty much assure you that your girlfriend knows you dont really want to make up with her mother and that is why she is still nagging on it.

I was wondering the same thing.

 

[Stumps]

I have try to explain why i dislike her mother, and I even have tried to make up with her in the past(this has been going on for about a year now) but as soon as i make up with her mother, the old battle axe just starts at me again..to her I'm just a failure, not good enough for her daughter.
I try my hardest to provide for my GF as we have been living together for about 2 and half years. I work 45hrs a week to give my GF everything she wants and still I'm a failure in her mothers eyes, and now i'm just suposed to forget all that and play nice...I said I would try but it never seems to be enough.

 

[Dimmu]

And have you made that very clear to your GF? If not, you really should.

Is your girlfriend aware of this? Or does she refuse to acknowledge your feelings? This is really important because you are going to get married and you will have all kinds of issues like this come up. You are getting a glimpse as to how the two of you are going to handle them. It is very important that the two of you be able to talk to each other and acknowledge and respect each others feelings. You will need to be able to work out compromises too. Marriage counseling is an excellent way to approach many issues and the counselor will bring up other things for the two of you to discuss that you probably havn't even considered yet. I would suggest you be honest with your girlfriend about your feelings regarding her mother, and immediately follow that up with a sincere statement that you are willing to work all of these things out thru a marriage counselor so the two of you have the best possible chance of succeeding as a couple.
