NINE WORDS WOMEN USE
1.FINE: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
2.FIVE MINUTES: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
3.NOTHING: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.
4.GO AHEAD: This is a dare, not permission. Don’t Do It.
5.LOUD SIGH: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)
6.THAT’S OKAY: This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. That’s okay means she wants you to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
7.THANKS: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you’re welcome. (I want to add in a clause here—This is true, unless she says ‘Thanks a lot’—that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say ‘you’re welcome’, that will bring on a ‘whatever’.)
8.WHATEVER: Is a woman’s way of saying GO TO HELL.
9.DON’T WORRY ABOUT, I GOT IT: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking ‘What’s wrong?’ For the woman’s response refer to #3.
*Send this to the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology.
