Guys may not readily admit it, but they’re adept at social media stalking. Whether it’s stalking an ex online or checking out their new crushes’ interests, the online investigation game is strong. I don’t think they can ever, however, be as skilled as us women are though!2. Dancing in Private

While they may avoid the dance floor in public, guys might secretly showcase their dance moves when no one is watching. This includes some cringey background music (maybe a bit of Spice Girls) which they wouldn’t be seen dead listening to in public.3. Morning Pee Mishaps

To our delight, we aren’t the only one filling up our days daydreaming about our crush. Men do this too, maybe even more so than us. And dreams? All his dreams are going to be about you.

Ladies, although you may not want to accept this fact, but, your guy friends would 100% try it on with you if you gave them the opportunity.

Although I am sure we can all admit to urinating in the shower once in our lives, men take to this activity almost all the time. I mean compared to most lazy activity’s men embark in, this one is not the worst – even though the toilet is in the exact same room.22. Peeing in the Sink

This one however, women most definitely DO NOT relate to. Most men cannot be bothered for the commute to the toilet, so for those that have a sink nearby, say those with one in their bedroom, will just enjoy a pee from the comfort of their bed. Ahh the laziness of the male species hey?23. Hand Hygiene Excuses

Instead of investing in a toilet roll or wipes to store in their bedroom, men’s logic assumes that using a dirty sock or anything that’s closest to sight seems the most efficient thing to do. I would hate to know how many times the same sock has been used for this purpose.27. Itch Management Ritual

Performing a sort of massaging motion on their t*sticles because they itch badly and it’s the only way to scratch the itch without hurting themselves.
