She coughs.
He doesn’t hear it.
The dog is barking at the back door.
He does not hear it.
I clatter and bang as I do the dishes after dinner.
He is oblivious.
The phone rings.
There is no movement from the couch.
Trees scrape off the windows, the wind howls outside and lightening cracks.
He just. keeps. snoring.
How is it that a man who does not hear a sick child in the night, an animal who whines incessantly, an angry wife slamming doors, a phones shrill ring, or a squeaking sound coming from outside that may or may not be a serial killer….can hear you whisper the word sex from 100 yards away?
Oh yah. I tested it. The dude has a bad case of Man Hearing.
It’s an epidemic, Stephanie!
Men and selective hearing, lol.
Could be hard of hearing… or could be… just because he’s a man! 😉 Ha!

I just tried 200 feet. Same results.
Hysterical!

Kills me. Especially the tuning out of ringing phones. C’mon guys!
This is so so true. Especially the part about the snoring.
This is so true.
I can also remind my husband of a converstion we have had and have him tell me he wan’t listening.
*sigh* Soooooooo true!
I knew that I was going to be in trouble for reading this. You can add to my list of selective hearing that I can hear and quickly respond to any hint of criticism from 3 rooms away.
Enjoy your weekend Stephanie.
Amen!

Haha, interesting how that works. Talk about selective hearing.
