5 Questions a Man should Never ask his Woman
5 questions a man should never ask his woman - for you never know what she might make of it
Let's face it, women have the ability to read much more into a question than is intended. For instance, a guy asks what the time is, and she hears, "I'm bored, I want to leave, I wonder if this relationship is working for me, I think I may be able to escape in the next few minutes, I wonder what I am doing here?" He wanted to know what the time was, because he needs to call up his client and fix up the meeting for the following day.
So what do the following questions mean to women?
Are you going to take long?
She hears : I am waiting for you outside while you are busy packing the baby's bag, sorting out the dog, wrapping the birthday present, dealing with YOUR mother's phonecall and locking the house. What is taking you so long?
Why does this question irritate women?
This question merely reveals the partners complete lack of understanding about what it takes to get ready to go on the road. And this is what makes women angry. Leave it to the man in your life, and you will arrive at the party without a present, without clean nappies for the baby, and, to top it all, a call from your neighbours telling you that your house has been broken into.
Don't you think you should start running again?
She hears : You are getting fat and I think it is because you are not getting enough exercise. Pick up two more kilos and I am out of here.
Why does this question irritate women?
It makes them feel that they are being prescribed to on how they should look, what they should wear in order to be found acceptable. Men just don't understand that many women deal with PMS, baby blues or the difficult boss and bitchy colleagues by eating a second slice of chocolate cake, followed by a cream caramel, rum 'n raisin ice cream and rounded off with a gulab jamun.
What's for dinner?
She hears: Your place is in the kitchen. I don't care if you work a full day like I do, dinner is your responsibility and I am hungry.
Why does this question irritate women?
It makes them feel as if the bulk of the household responsibilities is still theirs, even if they work fulltime or earn more than their husbands. Especially if they shopped for the food, cooked yesterday and did the washing of clothes thrice in the last one week.
What was your previous boyfriend like?
She hears: I don't like the thought of your being with anyone else, even if I didn't know you then. I really want to hear that he was a right royal jerk, useless in bed, couldn't get himself a good job and stay, and was generally disliked by all your family and friends.
Why does this question irritate women?
It makes them feel cornered - previous boyfriends are actually private territory and have nothing to do with present relationships. When women are hesitant to discuss previous relationships, men often react as if they are somehow being excluded and as if the woman has something to hide. We all have secrets and private things about which we do not wish to talk to anyone.
Who was that you were talking to?
She hears: I don't trust you. I don't like you talking to other men. You're mine, mine, mine and don't you forget it. How much did that smile really mean?
Why does this question irritate women?
It makes them feel as if they are being treated like possessions and not human beings. Everyone needs friends and women certainly do not want to sleep with every man they smile at. Heavens, that would even include that ugly 40-year-old doodh-wala who wakes them up every morning.
