We recently shared stories from Reddit of women realizing they were dating dumb men. And while I might be a bit biased that woman are smarter, I’ll admit I’ve had my own “ditzy” moments. Here are 17 times other women had the same…
1.
“She was choosing random pills from the blister of a ’21 active + 7 placebo’ contraceptive pack instead of following the arrows on the package.”
2.
“She skipped going to community college classes to ‘stick it to the professor’… I had to explain that she had already paid to be there, and the professor wouldn’t care or notice.”
3.
“I once dated a girl who legitimately thought we lived inside the Earth. We were talking about SpaceX back when they were just starting to get more public attention. I mentioned something about how it was cool we’ll be alive to potentially see humanity reach for the stars. Her response was something along the lines of, ‘Yeah, but how do they get to space?’ Confused, I said, ‘With the rockets. Like in the video.’ She replied, ‘Yeah, but don’t we have to get outside of the Earth first?’ Dumbfounded, I asked for further clarification. She goes on to say, in a tone that suggests I am the idiot here, ‘We live inside the Earth, so how the fuck do we get out so we can reach space?’ I then informed her that we live on the outside of the Earth. That’s why you see open sky and stars, and the SUN, and not more earth above you. She laughed and asked if we lived on the outside of the Earth, ‘wOUlDn’T wE jUSt fALl oFf?’ Still, as if I’m the idiot…”

“She thought people dug potholes during the night to force you to buy new tires.”
5.
“We live in central Alabama. My wife told me that her and her best friend were going to Birmingham for the weekend. Didn’t think anything of it, there’s lots of shopping and things to do in Birmingham. Came over Sunday night to tell me how disappointed she was in the trip. They had driven through all of the wealthier neighborhoods in Birmingham, Alabama for two days trying to find a house that matched the gates to Ozzy Osborne’s house and never found it. He lives in Birmingham, England.”
6.
“She didn’t understand that you actually have to pay what you spend on credit cards. Like the credit amount she had was supposed to be her monthly limit that just ✨resets✨ each month.”
7.
“She didn’t want to watch the original Avatar movie (blue people) until her uncle told her that it was based on a true story. I asked her if she meant that it was a futuristic version of Pocahontas… but no, she thought that it was somehow based on a true story. Then she asked if I was calling her uncle a liar. Follow-up questions, like asking if she really thought we waged war against an alien society, went poorly.”
8.
“When she said she loved nothing in the world more than Greek mythology, she even got a degree related to Greek mythology from the University of Arkansas, but had no idea who Prometheus and Achilles were.”
9.
“When I mentioned WW1 and she asked if that was why they called WW2 THE SECOND WORLD WAR?! She had no idea there was a first one.”
10.
“She worked for a specialty decorated cookie shop at the mall. Like where you get those dinner plate-sized cookies with ‘Get Well Soon’ or whatever written in frosting. She texted me a picture from work, proudly showing me a cookie she had decorated for a customer. She was legitimately excited to show me her creation. I had not previously seen any of her masterpieces prior to this. Not only did the artwork look like a 3-year-old’s finger painting, but it said ‘CONRADULATINS.’ Aside from the bad spelling, she had clearly not even planned out the spacing in her head first, so it said ‘CONRADU’ across the whole cookie, and then, in tiny letters up the side, ‘latins.’ She thought it came out pretty well. She was about 30 at the time.”
11.
“When my ex asked me where they grew spaghetti.”
12.
“When I asked her to hand me a kitchen knife and she threw it at me (underhand throw). When I tried to explain the basics of handing someone a knife, or a pair of scissors, she refused to accept that what she did was wrong or unsafe.”
13.
“The day I told my girlfriend I think I broke my toe and her solution was to yank on it with all her might. It was gout.”
14.
“‘Where does the sun go at night?’ She was in her 20s. I was dumbfounded.”
15.
“After her third ‘business opportunity’ turned out to be another pyramid scheme. We didn’t date long, but knew each other for a while before that. I liked her for her ‘work hard, get paid’ attitude. Turns out the hard work she was doing was costing her waaay more than she made, and didn’t realize it.”
16.
“Calls me at work because her crumpets don’t fit in the crumpet tray under the toaster… Crumpet tray?!? Had a look when I got home. It was clearly labeled ‘CRUMB TRAY.'”
17.
And, lastly: “When we passed by a car wash that said free vacuum with purchase of a car wash and she thought it meant we’d get a free vacuum to take home with us to clean the house with. I absolutely love her to death.”
Okay, time to expose yourself if you’re a woman — or expose a woman you’ve been with. What is the one thing they’ve said that made you question their IQ? Tell us in the anonymous comments form below, and you made be featured in a follow up post!
