Speak no evil. You say something that you believe is totally
inoffensive only to find that youve offended them. You need to use
the right word at the right time, else it may result you
re-enacting the fight sequence of 300, and dying a horrifying
death, as Wombat loves to put it.
Here are some harmless words, but are downright catastrophic -
based on my real life experiences.
RELAX
It might seem legitimate to say this to a woman who has lost her
nerves, but its a moronic thing to say. Youre suggesting that
theres no reason to be upset, but in reality, youre faulting her
of being loony. Instead, just be sympathetic, and say something
like, Lets deal with it together.
I LOVE YOU (during a fight)
In films, the words I Love You is commonly uttered at the right
moment, but, in real life, I think a woman hears these words the
most during an argument when she desperately wants to get to the
heart of the matter, and when men wanna stop this hokum. Merely
expressing the existence of your love isnt going to make
everything swell. You can however, say these words at the end, just
not at the beginning of a fight.
UP TO YOU
Where to eat, where to go for a holiday, what to do? Decisions
decisions. For men, we think making decisions is like work without
pay, so we say Up to you and then get mauled Itchy & Scratchy
style. For women, its like window-shopping for possibilities.
Instead, say something like, A or B would be good, but Im not too
keen about C, what do you think?
SILENCE
At times, you may be apprehensive of saying the wrong thing, so you
keep your mouth shut. Dont! Its like playing football, if youre
the only one on the team, you pass the ball to yourself, with no
team player - can you manage? Thats how women feel, so, say
something, keep yourself in the game. After all, shes your team
mate.
The all time classic one-liners. These are the three dating secrets
that all girls love to hear. By saying any of these you will be
sure to defuse the situation and make her far more rational and
loving.
Tell me the whole story. Girls become angry at the thought of not
being able to tell their side of the tale. By giving her free reign
to talk, she will automatically start to calm down. Additionally,
she will start thinking as she is talking is this part really
important? and do I really want to tell him this bit? And the
story will become a lot shorter.
You are just so gorgeous. This must be said in a very genuine
sounding way, and as if you have just that second been blinded by
her beauty. From a girls perspective, is probably better than
saying I love you as an end to an argument.
Im sorry, it is my fault. Or Im sorry, you were right. Hard
words to say, but there is nothing more of a turn on to a woman
than a man who is prepared to admit defeat on the strength of his
love. Obviously, it probably wasnt all your fault, and if so, then
you should be receiving an apology as well. You may feel like you
are losing face by saying sorry, but in reality you are gaining
enormous amounts of respect.
