Do they feel embarrased to ask or what? they would rather drive for miles and miles .I think it's losing face.Me on the other hand think nothing of winding down car window and saying excuse me ,I'm lost!!
I remember my dad was just the same,and can still visualise my mum seething away .
OH says we will just take the scenic route!!!!!!!!!!!!

no problem here have a sat nav and a map book

:O)

Yes but if you don't have them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Snap Helen, I will always be the one who has to ask, mind you, my OH wouldnt even ask if the coffee laid on at work last week was for staff when other staff members were drinking it, I had to ask!!

Does it dent their masculinity or something lol?


Caz xxx

I would stop and ask a police man

no problem with asking anyone for directions here

Caz yes I think it is to do with masculinity,even if they don't realise it!!

Cause they think they must/should know the way & so will keep driving until they find their destination - how ever long it takes !!!!!

route planning only take a minute

but give us men a chance
be nin my shoes when a woman in the car next to you reading a map and giving direction
when she says next right it really means next left
and strait up means turn around and go the other way

I actullay got to blackpool that way lol

Yeah Yeah Surf M OH says I always read the map upside down.But what is so shameful in asking directions??
It can save petrol.

Lol Surf, Im very good with directions!!

Sat Nav is not always the best.

I don't even bother with asking o.h. when I am driving as he needs one pair of specs for reading signs etc and a different pair for the road map. He can get lost going to his father's house, where he used to live, fgs, but I am usually ok and can find my way round fairly well, even if I go wrong I can usually find my way back to the road I really wanted to be on. And of course, I am never too proud to ask for directions.

Is this the way to Amarillo
every night I've been hugging my pillow
dreaming dreams of Amarilloand sweet Marie who waits for me
show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weeping like a willow
crying over Amarillo

It's because they are afraid their bits will shrivel and drop off.

Slightly off topic. My ex used to be a driver. He was sent to Towyn once to deliver a load of insulation. He got there okay (we'd been before) but when he stopped to ask for directions to the place he was supposed to deliver to he was told he was in the wrong Towyn pmsl
