Wanna Know Your Guy A Little Bit Better? Take Him Grocery Shopping

Camille Sigrid

Wanna know your guy a little bit better? In a different light? Take him grocery shopping.

Let him deal with having to carry your shopping basket or push around the shopping cart while you zigzag through people in the supermarket.

Watch him go nuts in the junk food aisle. Take note of which chips he grabs first. Does he get dip? Did he decide so easily?

Tell him all about the different cuts of meat. And no, they're not the same thing.

Then he'll make immature jokes passing by the cold cuts area. Trust me.

He will try to get ice cream, so prepare to explain to him that you can't get ice cream right now because it will melt, that he'll have to go back when you're almost done.

Ask him to get vegetables. Does he return empty-handed, saying there were a lot of vegetables and he can't pick? Or does he outright gets too much?

Talk about your Mood Kit: chocolates, junk food.

Let his face light up watching cute kids running around. Let him be annoyed by the same running kids.

How does he react to empty shelves? Or when his favorite ramen is out of stock?

Does he pick up stuff after accidentally knocking them off the shelves?

Watch him watch you take hours picking a shampoo, then another few hours picking conditioner.

Can he get tampons for you?

Does he line up for those "free taste" booths?

Watch how he reacts to long lines at the counter. Will he rant? Will he keep quiet? Will he insist on looking for a shorter line and race anyone to it?

Is he whiny? Or, what does he do when you whine?

Does he share stories of when he was at the grocery with his friends? His parents? When he was little?

Did you guys have fun doing just that?
