Why are women always surprised? *SPOILERS*


When men get rejected by the woman they want all we want to do is just get laid and go back to who they know.

Women should stop coming around the night after they reject a guy...especially at a wedding. At least then the problem would be solved.

Hey, you rejected US! Is it such a surprise that we try to find consolation in the arms of another?

Reed was a wuss, yes, he should've committed to one or another, but why is it his fault that Jill rejects him and he goes back to someone who does care about him?

You're right, and the film doesn't depict Reed as a bad guy. His reaction is very plausible from a guy's point of view that you explained.

The problem is that women respond totally differently. Sex is way more emotional for them and they are more careful about whom they have sex with. So when they finally decide that a guy is worth it, and find him with another girl, they get really hurt and can't understand how the guy can be in love with them and at the same time sleep with another girl.

I agree with you nomad. And women should just wait till they're married to have sex, just so there's no confusion and hurt feelings.
