Say What?!

Understanding that girls remember the little things is also very important when you want to communicate with them. It is a known fact that most females "read into" things boys say. For example: A woman is getting ready in the morning and asks her husband his opinion on her outfit. His response? "You look fine." This comment may not seem offensive but for the wife, it is disaster. "You look fine" translated into girl terms means you look horrible. Now the woman is concerned that her appearance is sub par so she frantically raids her closet looking for something better and spends the rest of the day feeling self conscious. For boys, this probably seems ridiculous, but girls can't help it. We are emotional and I can't stress that enough. Since we are so emotional we expect boys to be able to connect on that emotional level with us, and when they are unable to do that, we get disappointed. By changing "you look fine" to "you look great" makes all the difference in the world. Not only does it boost our confidence, it makes us happy. I'm not saying you should spend your entire day trying to please a girl or complimenting her every second, just think about what you are saying and how you say it.
