Now I am not the greatest when it comes to fixing stuff like that but I gave it a good try the night before. My car was still not working so I had to leave it. The next day we have to go back to the car to find out what is wrong with it. I ask my husband to come with me and I swear he REALLY starts acting like a big baby! He says there is no reason for him to go since he dont know much about cars either so why should he go. When I told him that this was a crappy reason not to go he proceeds to blame me for what happened to the car and that is why he wont go with me. After arguing for the next half hour he finally decides to go and I swear with him there we got even less done since he didnt want to do anything, he knew what was wrong, (this coming from a man who argued that he didnt want to go since he didnt know about cars...) I guess my question is why is it that when men are put on the spot they always try to blame someone or something else for their actions? Reply to this Question

To accept blame is like being castrated to a man! (not all, some are easier to handle). He was probably worried that you were blaming him, so was quick to blame you first.

It's not a question of "Why Do Men...?"
Why are you giving him an excuse saying he did it because he's a man?
He was in a bad mood and acted like a dick.
Maybe his blood sugar was down, maybe he was stressed out by a bad dream.
You can ask him what his excuses are, but don't go painting all men as emotional retards because your husband had a bad day and took it out on you.
Good Luck!! xx
