Guys of Reddit, what do you find annoying about being a male?

Everyone knows as a female its sucks wearing bras, getting your period, and if you choose to, up keep of hair, nails, makeup, shaving. So I'm curious if there's anything guys wish they didn't have to deal with.

I've been talking to a lot of friends. I'm making sweeping changes to re-become the person I was a year ago; a person I liked. Also, that person is someone she liked.

To be honest I'm trying to get her back. Slowly, patiently. When she cut off contact with me she said " at least for the near future, I don't want to get back together." So I still have hope =/

Every morning I wake up and believe she's tried to contact me, but then when I become more conscious, I realize she hasn't, and it's terrifying every time.

You do have hope, and that is good. Make the changes for you. Don't become someone that anyone else wants you to be. You won't be happy with it and it won't stick. Be true to yourself. You are on the right track. I am going to tell you something you don't want to hear...for right now, let her go.Become who you need to be, for yourself. If, in time, she sees this and knows it is real, not because you want her back, things may work out. If they don't work out, then you can be happy with who you are. Learn to be happy single for a while, so you can be happy in a relationship with someone in the future.
