WORDS WOMEN USE
FINE
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
FIVE MINUTES
If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
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"
GO AHEAD
This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.
LOUD SIGH
This is not 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 over "Nothing"
THAT'S OKAY
This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to a
man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
THANKS
A woman is thanking you. Do not question it or faint. Just say you're welcome.
WHATEVER
It's a woman's way of saying YOU just wait!
Send this to the men you know to warn them about future arguments they can
avoid if they remember the terminology!
And send it to your women friends to give them a good laugh!
******************************
I don't have much to talk about or even rant about today. I am fighting allergies and just am lucky to stay awake long enough to work. I am looking forward to seeing STARTING OVER's new program starting next week. If any of you have not watched it before, you should check it out. It is great. And if any of you women are needing a way to figure out what to do with your life...it seems like an excellent way to be counselled, and prepared to figture out what you need to do to feel like yourself and figure out WHO you are if you don't know already. It is usually on during the day and you can check for your station on the website...www.startingovertv.com
