Why are women a puzzle to men?

Why are women a puzzle to men?
From the very beginning of time men have been scratching their heads (and other places) trying to figure out this un-answerable question. We see it clear as day, but I look over at my poor husband and he's still clueless after almost 7 years. We also see ourselves as simple creatures but we are far from that, we are complex. We are an enigma to men. To them, we are like a puzzle. They look for the prettiest one and get the adrenaline going as they get excited to open it up and start "playing" with it. Once the box is open, they start trying to "figure it out" and put the pieces together. This stage builds momentum and competition. They stay there for a while but only because they don't want to fail a challenge. So, they go along with things acting as if they are keen to everything. The puzzle is slowly revealing itself, piece-by-piece, but still has so many places to fill. The outline is now fully formed and the inside is left empty. Who cares though because by this point, it has become unappealing and seemingly too hard to finish and fill so they give up and move on to the next pretty box. However, the outcome isn't always so grim. Sometimes, they come back after they realize that the new "puzzle" is harder than the first one.

Again, I use a puzzle as a comparison to a woman. I also speak from experience. My husband and I are still in the trail stage after a year-long separation. We have been married 5 years and still trying to figure it all out.
