Greetings Curious Scroller,
If you've never landed in this part of cyber space before, you have taken a hard, fast plunge into the fiery depths of work hell. RHU is dedicated to giving the service worker a voice. If you are an angry customer, a corporate suite, a homophobic race-hater, and you don't like skull masks or swear words, this blog isn't for you. Click away now, before your ears bleed and your eyes explode.
I'm Freddy, Crypt Keeper of Retail Hell Underground RHU -- a place for service slaves to have a voice, tell their story, support each other, or just have a chuckle about the insanity of working in the 10th Circle of Hell! I'm also the author of "Retail Hell," the funny memoir about life as a handbag sales associate at an upscale department store! The sequel, "Return To The Big Fancy," has just been released in hardcover and e-reader and is available wherever books are sold!
LOL, It's true. But honestly, if you don't want to go shopping with your GF, then don't, and if she is going to get all butt hurt over it and give you grief then you should dump her ass.
Still, i feel for any guy who has to go through this, I prefer going shopping with other girls.

Bring a book, a laptop, a kindle, a hand held game device, even your cell phone is enough. These days, you can be entertained anywhere.

Or date a girl that won't abuse you as a partner just so she can go shopping. Dating doesn't mean using your boy as a bag holder, and that's the feel I get from this.

I HATE shopping. I call malls "mauls" because that's how I feel after being in one for about an hour. I will happily take these two out for a drink if someone will go buy me some nice clothes without me setting foot inside the "maul".

I only shopped with my boyfriend when he needed things too, so it was pretty fair.
I really wouldn't want to drag him along to a clothing store and make him sit there while I tried stuff on, and not do the same for him

A good book solves that problem, I have found. Same for waiting in line [like I had to to get a question answered at my friendly local IRS office yesterday... the agent was very nice and helpful, but the line was long enough that I read 60 pages in my book.]
My current GF does all her clothes shopping online, except for one time when she dragged me with her to the mall... then proceeded to haul me into the dressing room with her and try on bikinis, asking for my opinion. I told her that I'm the wrong person to ask because she could wear a burlap sack and I'd think she was incredibly sexy [which is true]. After she tried on the fifth one I told her if she tried on any more bikinis I was going to jump her right there in the dressing room, so she cut her shopping short and bought all 5.

I prefer to go shopping without my husband as I know it bores him to tears.Why put him through that? Before I was married, I never expected my boyfriend to go with me. Women who expect their boyfriends/husbands to go shopping with them to hold bags, etc need to be more independent and take care of their own business without a "bag boy".

I ask my boyfriend if he minds going with me, and most of the time he doesn't mind at all! He will actually sit there while I try on things and give his honest opinion, we've always been 100 percent honest with each other if clothing makes us look bad so I know I can trust him more then a girl. Most girls are to shy to let you know what you look disgusting in. My boyfriend is in no way feminine either, he just enjoys looking good himself so he likes that his girlfriend looks good as well and by helping me pick out my clothes he can be sure of it instead of me spending money on something he hates. :)

I really hate when I see guys trailing after girls with all their shopping bags, I mean, if he's being a gentleman, fine but hold some bags yourself...and make it up to him by buying him lunch/dinner and something for himself.

I was fortunate. My ex was pretty cool about shopping with me. We really only got out on the weekends at all though, so it wasn't like we went every day. The mall itself was about once a month, but necessity shopping was every weekend because it was the only time we could be out together.
