  anyway it's not all that bad if you don't keep focusing on the boredom part. girls tend to want to wear clothes for their bfs to see anyway so she wants you to tell her if she looks good in it n stuff. at least it's good she wants to bring you along too..
  think about the alternative. let's say she wants a guy along for a guy's opinion and you don't want to do. would u rather she go shopping for clothes with some other guy?

  The thing is I felt weird with all those hotties wearing so sexily giving me the look as I am only the guy in the shop.Not only that,all those people passing by outside could see me sticking out so prominently.

  that's your own wild imagination lah.... maybe it's true but if you think it this way... people are jealous of me cos' I can afford to buy clothes for my g/f here and you all out there cannot..... how long you're with your g/f together? i guess it's not too long, right?

  The enlightened men here who happily shop with their gals have my utmost respect. Some men look so bored and miserable while waiting in the shops, I really pity them.

  Some are "enlightened".. some are just plain bored for good reason... I put it down to Venus and Mars.
  
  The typical man needs something.. he knows where to get it.. he goes to the place, picks out the thing, maybe tries it on for size, gets the correct one, pays for it and walks out. Maybe 10 to 15 minutes max.
  
  The typical woman does not need to get anything, but goes shopping anyway. She looks through every shop, trying out random things, unsure of what she wants. In the end, if she's feeling like it, she'll have tried a whole pile of things she'll not buy, buy a lot of things she'll never use, spend a whole lot of money and more time. Maybe, 3 to 4 hours, buying bags of things which may remain in the bags forever...
  
  Women go shopping with men, women are not happy because she does not have enough time to browse through everything.
  
  Men go shopping with women, men are not happy because he has to spend long periods of time in women's shops where the women spend too much time browsing through everything, even things that are she's uninterested in.

  sometimes, sometimes
  
  i loved shopping with my ex... her shopping method is very different from everyone i know... she scans the whole shop and then zeroes in on whatever interests her... and if on closer examination, it is no more interesting, we're out of the shop... usually, less than a minute is spent in "uninteresting" shops...
  
  i enjoyed shopping with her because i get to see her and the way she thinks which is a whole lot of data being absorbed, processed, then cross-reference with what she wants, and her current wardrobe... and a decision is made, usually very well matched... all within 30 seconds
  
  she's amazing

  Nicely summarized.

  I think some parts of human nature can never be changed. Even if a woman develops some highly organised and efficient method of shopping, a man who just hates malls (it's programmed in his dna or something) would never enjoy accompanying her.
  
  Sometimes you just gotta compromise and be satisfied with the best effort he puts in. Less painful for both parties.

  But one thing is certain, ladies' stamina during shopping will be better than the guys...
  I was shopping yesterday with a friend from noon till night
  Its was alright, I dun mind shopping with girls, quite interesting.
  
  But towards the end I feel as if my knees are going to give way, but she, who seldom do any exercise seems perfectly ok... I had to trhrow the towel and request for a rest..

  For a guy
  he will take off his clothes in the room and walk to the bathroom naked. if he saw his wife on the way there, he will shake his (you know what lah) in front her and and make some calls at here. Inside the bathroom, he will look at the mirror and flex his muscles here and there... only then he will bathe.. he wash his head and body in just 10 mins... then he just take the towel and wipe himself anyhow and throw it back at the rack. He walks back to the room naked.. if he saw his wife on the way, he will make some calls and shake his (you know what).
  
  For a ger
  she takes off her clothes in the room and wrap herself up with a tower... if she she saw her husband on the way and the towel drops, she will try to cover herself up with whatever methods and hurry her way to the bathroom shyly. Inside, she will look at the mirror for a long time and then take out all her creams/facial wash... she take about 1 hour to bathe... she will dry every single spot on the body, then she will cover herself with a towel and hurry her way back to the room. If she saw her husband on the way and the towel drops, she will try to cover herself with whatever methods and hurry back to the room.
