There is always something about men and winning that is different from ladies, sometimes I ask myself is it their Ego acting out or  they just like the thrill of conquest? Recently, we were going out to eat. If there is something I love, it’s eating out. I love it when we go to new places because I like to experiment with dishes. It was a Friday after church and we decided to go to this new restaurant called Kargeen. This restaurant has showed us  before because we have looked for it ehn, we checked google map and it directed us to different wrong locations and after a really long search, we turned back. This day, we were sure we had seen a landmark and we were close to the place… That is how we got to the street, knowing it was that area, we could see different restaurants but could not find Kargeen and luckily for us we saw people walking by the road (that is something you hardly see in Oman). We had moved round and round without finding the place for close to 30 minutes  and the map kept showing us we were very close, I told Mr Possible “please ask this people” and he said, “don’t worry babe we will find it.” Say what? Find ke? You see, that period, I went into one stupid diet plan,that is a story for another day, but I had not eaten that day, I was almost fuming,What is this now?  I told him, “please can you just ask this people?” at this point, I was losing my patience because hunger no let me see road (I could not talk because of how hungry I was) then I heard him say “it’s just three minutes away from here and we will soon get it.We have looked for this place too much to now ask anyone” I tried rolling my eyes but the hunger made it stiff, that anything I did then would have just been a mockery to rolling eyes… He finally said, “are you hungry? I though we ate this morning, you should have told me… Okay, if I check now and I don’t find it, then we will ask.” I just kept quiet as we drove into some place, lo and behold, it was Kargeen…. You need to see the smile of relief on my face and immediately I turned to MrPossible, who by now was grinning from ear to ear saying “We found it! we found it!! ” We ke? I had to ask, What is it with you men, is it the thrill of conquest or is it just Ego?  Conquest or Ego, which is it? Share your story with B2M.
