Why do women sometimes feel the need to tell guys what to do?

Question

If guys make a "mistake."

For example, "NEXT TIME, do this for your next girlfriend" or on your next date or next match. But if men tell them something similar, they get pissed off? Is this really out of kindness or is this for some reason a unified thing that most or all women like to do?

It’s a manipulative control tactic that some girls’ do , I should say most but I will be nice lol they feel they can boss around their partner and give him ultimatums that if he doesn’t do what she tells him to do , then their will be a price to pay , Most girls’ that treat their partner this way , are Girls’ that guy should honestly kick to the curb , she doesn’t value and respect him , she just likes the convenience of him and what she can receive from him , I dated girls’ that had this selfish mindset that assumed she was never wrong and I no longer tolerate girls’ with that selfish behavior because they feel things can only go their way, if not , then they will make your life a living hell , And she is more Than likely cheating on him or planning to cheat on him , so never tolerate a girl that tries to find flaws in you and criticizes you and belittles you and treats you like you can never do anything right , she only loves herself , she doesn’t know how to love someone else , she only knows how to point fingers at him before pointing fingers at herself. So my advice is to kick that bitch to the curb where she belongs and don’t waste anymore of your time with a girl like that , she is more than likely a whore that spreads her legs to any guy she feels is attractive that gives her attention and that she feels will take care of her while she is stringing you along for the ride , find yourself a girl that looks up to you that enjoys being submissive to you , that stands by your side no matter what , that wants to bring happiness into your life , not misery

Men should never take dating advice from women because they live life on easy mode so they don't understand how hard it is to be a man and what we have to do to get girls. They also don't even know what they want as they will say things like they want nice sensitive guys but somehow all their exes are toxic assholes.

Well, depends on the context.

If the guy says "next time just get on your knees and blow me instead of talking", that's definitely gonna piss a woman off.

Meanwhile an example I have before is an ex telling me he'll take me out to dinner and pay the bill and I can order whatever (I did ask if he had a budget), and he balked when I ordered a single drink (I made sure to calculate my entire order was cheaper than his). I told him "next time, tell me if you don't want me to order specific things or that you have a hard limit to your budget".

We never had the issue again because he followed through.

Here's a line I like that guides me in my work and life: if you're being corrected, it means you're worth teaching.

"Next time" means you have a next time.

Fuck up again/enough and you lose that chance.

I suppose it is since men are stupid and always think they are right we are just trying to teach you something so you don't fuck up again.. but most likely they won't take the advice and make the same mistake again. We get pissed off because you are stupid and we don't need advice from you.. the only time we don't get pissed is if we actually respect you and value your advice.

It's probably a power thing. They feel like they have no power over you, so they try to humble you. I don't do it though

Well, there's a way of saying things. When my husband does something wrong I correct politely i. e. "babe next time can you please do xyz instead of zyx?" I don't boss around men hate that. Men don't like when you treat them how their mother used to treat them. I guess some women just like to boss around and think they're right.

I prefer to say in real-time. It prevents "mistakes" and makes whatever you do more pleasant. I strongly believe we can't read other people's minds, so if I like or dislike something, I prefer to say it rather than wait for another person to guess.

Most of the time, it’s best to disregard those kind of women. They’re only telling you what they want to do for them. They don’t know the woman you are dating or about to date

Men don't listen. You usually have to say something 3 or 4 times before anything sinks in.
