There have been many books written about the ways men and women communicate. While men and women share much in common, they often express it a little bit differently. Women are more verbose in nature and men tend to use fewer words leaving women guessing at their end game or intentions.

Here are 10 Common Words Used By Women

 

DON”T WORRY ABOUT IT, I GOT IT:  This means you were supposed to do something but didn’t. It means something was expected of you but you failed. It could be something simply, she asked you take out the garage, or expected you to do so, and you didn’t. Oops! Now she had to do it herself. Being the sensitive fellow you are, you ask innocently, “What’s Wrong”?  This will be met promptly with female response number 8:  “Nothing!” !!!

WHATEVER:  This single word has a multitude of meanings. Note carefully the stress of the voice, the inflection, the volume, and the body language that accompanies “whatever”.  The best defense, again, is no offense. Step away from fist swinging range.

THANKS A LOT:  This is not that same thing as “Thanks”. Do not confuse the two. This is pure sarcasm and you just stepped on a nerve or hot button. At this point, just walk away. Responding with “You’re Welcome” is inappropriate and will reignite any smoldering embers, or at least lead to a “Whatever.”

THANKS:  A woman is thanking you. Do not question it. Do not begin a dialog around it.  Just say you’re welcome. Leave well enough along. Do not poke the bear.

LOUD SIGH:  This is not actually a word, but is still often a verbal statement very misunderstood by men. A “Loud Sigh” means she thinks you are an idiot at that moment and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over “Nothing”.

THAT’S OKAY:  She’s already thinking of creative and provocative ways of how and when you will pay for your mistake.

LOUD SIGH:  This is not actually a word, but is still often a verbal statement very misunderstood by men. A “Loud Sigh” means she thinks you are an idiot at that moment and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over “Nothing”.

GO AHEAD:  (with raised eyebrows): This is a dare, one that will result in the female getting upset over “Nothing” and will end with the word “Fine”.

NOTHING:  This means something and you should be on your toes. “Nothing” is usually used to describe the feeling a woman has of wanting to turn you inside out, upside down, and backwards. “Nothing” usually signifies an argument that will last “Five Minutes” and end with a huffy “Fine”.

FIVE MINUTES:  This is half an hour. It is the equivalent to the five minutes that your football game is going to last before you take out the trash, so it’s an even trade. “I’ll be ready in five minutes.”

FINE:  This is the word we use at the end of any argument when we know we’re right, but we want you to be quiet. NEVER use fine to describe how a woman looks. That’s right, when we say, “How does this look on me honey?”, the wrong answer is “fine”.
