"It's a guy thing."
Really means.... "There is no rational thought pattern connected
with it, and you have
no chance at all
of making it logical."
"Can I help with
dinner?"
Really means.... "Why isn't it already on the table?"
"Uh huh,"
"Sure, honey," or "Yes, dear."
Really means.... Absolutely nothing. It's a conditioned
response.
"It would take too
long to explain."
Really means... "I have no idea how it works."
"I'm getting more
exercise lately."
Really means.... "The batteries in the remote are
dead."
"We're going to be
late."
Really means.... "Now I have a legitimate excuse to drive
like a maniac."
"Take a break,
honey, you're working too hard."
Really means.... "I can't hear the game over the vacuum
cleaner."
"That's
interesting, dear."
Really means.... "Are you still talking?"
"Honey, we don't
need material things to prove our love."
Really means.... "I forgot our anniversary again."
"You expect too
much of me."
Really means.... "You want me to stay awake."
"That's women's
work."
Really means.... "It's difficult, dirty, and
thankless."
"You know how bad
my memory is."
Really means.... "I remember the theme song to 'F Troop',
the address of the first girl
I ever kissed and the
Vehicle Identification Numbers
of every car I've ever
owned, but I forgot your birthday."
"Oh, don't fuss. I
just cut myself, it's no big deal."
Really means.... "I have severed a limb, but will bleed to
death before I admit I'm hurt."
"I do help around
the house."
Really means.... "I once put a dirty towel in the laundry
basket."
"Hey, I've got my
reasons for what I'm doing."
Really means.... "I sure hope I think of some reasons
pretty soon."
"I can't find
it."
Really means.... "It didn't fall into my outstretched
hands, so I'm completely clueless."
"What did I do
this time?"
Really means.... "What did you catch me doing?"
"I heard
you."
Really means.... "I haven't the foggiest clue what you
just said, and am hoping desperately
that I can fake it well
enough so that you don't spend the next 3 days yelling at me."
"You look
terrific."
Really means.... "Oh, God, please don't try on one more
outfit. I'm starving."
"I missed
you."
Really means.... "I can't find my sock drawer, the kids
are hungry and we are out of toilet paper."
"I'm not lost. I
know exactly where we are."
Really means.... "I'm lost. I have no idea where we are,
and no one will ever see us alive again."
"We share the
housework."
Really means.... "I make the messes, you clean them
up."
"This relationship
is getting too serious."
Really means.... "You're cutting into the time I spend
with my truck."
"I don't need to
read the instructions."
Really means.... "I am perfectly capable of screwing it up
without printed help."
