Guys,

You always say you want to know how we work and what we're really saying when we say something or do something. And now I will reveal the deepest inter-workings of our minds that you always knew, or should have known, but just ignored. After reading this you will no longer be able to use your ignorance as an excuse.

1. When we get mad "for no reason"

We are not really mad, most times. We are using anger instead of showing you how hurt we are because we don't want you to see the pain you caused us. We are not mad for no reason, there is a reason and if you ask about it and we don't tell you it's because we want you to figure it out. We want you to figure it out because it is a test to see if you care enough to search for the answer or if you will just give up.

2. If you say you're sorry

We will most likely forgive you. We do not hold grudges most times. All we want is an apology, something to let us know that you acknowledge the fact that you hurt us and you are sorry. If you just swallow your pride and admit that you were wrong we will be satisfied and leave you alone.

3. Why do women gang up on you

We feel like you won't stick with us or stand up for us, so we must stick together.We understand the emotions that our fellow women are going through and so we help each other out when we feel it is necessary.

4. You are clearly interested in us, why is nothing happening?

We don't know what "clearly" is. We need to know point blank what you are thinking/ feeling about us. We can't just assume that you like us. We over analyze everything and try to read into things that really don't mean anything. If you are clear with us, we will try to be clear with you about how we feel. Don't make us guess how you feel just tell us.

5. Why do we get mad when you decide to go do something differently than what was originally planned?

Be up front with us. If you don't want to hang out, just say so. We will be so much more upset if you don't just tell us right away. When we say, "hey you want to hang out later" we would rather have you say no or maybe but I'm not sure, than have you tell us yes and then ditch us later. We really are not that unreasonable we just want to be treated fairly.

6. We don't like to be told we're overreacting

Or be told we're being over dramatic. We don't even like it when you sigh really big and act like we are overreacting. When you say that it makes us feel like you don't care about how we feel and we're just making a big fuss about something. Even if it is a little thing to you it matters to us, so even if you don't care, at least pretend you do.

7. Don't insult us and think it is alright.

It isn't funny. It just gets us more fired up, and it definitely doesn't lighten the mood. Insulting us is not a way to get us to laugh and it is never funny. Even if it doesn't make us mad, it's awkward and not cool. It may be funny to go back and forth with your guy friends, but we don't enjoy it.

8. Why do we do what we do?

Mostly we just want to know you care. Behind every action is the mentality that the correct response is to show us that you care about us.
