How To Turn Down A Guy And Not Ruin The Mood (PHOTO)

We've all been there: It's not that you don't want to hang out with your chiseled, model boyfriend, it's that you're SO CLOSE to finishing this scarf and you know that if you put it down you won't get back to it until next weekend.

That's a normal thing, right? That's a relationship problem you'd pay close to $5 to solve.

Fun fact: It's actually that turtleneck that's killing the mood.

Remember ladies: Turtlenecks are very potent bo.ner killers. Never forget that.

Sewing (I know she knitting) in Dutch translates to "naaien" and that is a slang term for having sex...

This whole article is very confusing to me... What is she really saying here.. :D

Makes no difference. The rules still applies.

Who would not want to have sex with the guy in the pic. He looks very handsome. When she turns you down again, come to me, I will take good care of you.

The author's last name is hilarious too!

Thanks for pointing that out. It made it funny. Poor guy's hose isn't so good, though.

Chicks can't knit or so anymore and dudes can't change a tire, I guess our phones will be able to do those things in the future

People can not spell anymore either.

The word is SEW, not so!

My son knits. My wife can change a tire. The future is now. Join us in it.

That's the sequel to the book. "Throw the Dude a Bone. Topless Knitting."

Doesn't seem like there was much of a mood to begin with.

What the hell is the matter with her? Put down that damn knitting, and get bizzay!

A guy like that isn't going to hang around if you don't keep him happy!

[GraniteSkyline]

A guy like that probably has a boyfriend on the side.

It has kept me married since I was 19, and I'm 40 and still going strong...women listen to the men, like it or lump it, this is how they think, and it is not like we think ladies....

[GraniteSkyline]

In that case, I am genuinely dismayed and yet mildly nonplussed. In other words ... huh.

A whole book...dedicated... to saying not right now?
