“What did I say?” You wonder to yourself. Ever found yourself in this situation?
Dating tips for guys to use to ensure dating women doesn’t become a verbal nightmare.
Coco Swan explains those terms that come with a guarantee to upset your girlfriend.
1:
“I’ll leave it to you to decide.” Life is full of decision making. By
saying “I’ll leave it to you to decide” you are actually saying “I just
don’t care what you decide”. While men think of decision making as hard
work, women see making choices as being part of a partnership and look
forward to the input. When you leave it to them to make the decision
you are making them feel that you just don’t care enough.
Solution: “I don’t care for plan A but plan B and C sound pretty
good. What do you think?” This is a great answer because it gets you
out of deciding, displays the fact you were listening and implies you
care enough.
2: “Just relax.” It might seem rational to you to
say this when your girlfriend is totally freaking out. However, your
girlfriend is upset about something which she sees as a valid reason
for being so. When you tell her to relax, you are implying that
whatever is upsetting her to this extent is trivial, or worse, that she
is being irrational. Girls do not like to be thought of as irrational.
When you stay calm, which in her eyes is doing nothing, you are denying
that there is a reason for her to be upset.
Solution: “Let’s fix this together. This is upsetting for me as well.” You have now become empathic.
3:”I
love you” while arguing. The three most romantic words in the English
language should never be used to get out of an argument. When your
girlfriend is still furious with you, trying to get out of the fight
like that will never work. Your girlfriend has more to say and you will
be hearing it. By attempting to finish the disagreement like that, you
are coming over as trying to sneakily shut her up and you will just
wind her up even more. Saying those three words now are not going to
help you.
Solution: Explain what has happened, in detail, with a good reason
attached. Reassure her that you won’t do it again. Now you can say “I
love you”. It is perfectly acceptable to finish off with this, just
don’t start your apology with it.
4: Saying nothing at all. You
may think this is the safe option. You might be scared of saying the
wrong thing. You might be worried about incriminating yourself. You may
be thinking “silence is golden”. Wrong, so wrong, very wrong and
totally wrong! Girls feel abandoned and on their own when you do not
talk.
Solution: Say something, anything at all. You are better off to
make some contribution to the conversation than none at all. It doesn’t
matter if what you say is not right, it is always better than nothing
at all.
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
girl’s perspective, is probably better than saying “I love you” as an
end to an argument.
“I’m sorry, it is my fault.” Or “I’m 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 wasn’t 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.
