Well ladies...be honest and ask yourself this.....

have you ever uttered the words "We need to talk..." and followed that sentance with a postive statment?
Have you ever responded to your husb/boyfriend with the words "that's fine" and really meant the exact opposite?

BEfore you question why "men are like that" honestly answer those questions.

Before you flame me I am just posting in response to alot of threads I see, some today. No harm no foul, just food for discussion.

    I agree. What about when talking about plans for dinner and the woman is like, "Oh I don't care where we eat." but she really means, "You better pick italian or you're getting a fork to the thigh."

    "we need to talk" translates into "I will now explain why you doing or not doing X is bad"
    "that's fine" translates to "Later we will have a 'we need to talk conversation" and I will also be having sex with your friend"

    "Do you have a second? We need to talk," doesn't always mean something bad in our household. It's just my cue I need him to put down the video game for a second (not right away) so we can discuss something. The other day, I needed his full attention to figure out the budget for our upcoming vacation, and I knew I wouldn't get it if I just launched into a discussion without any warning. I see it as being polite instead of bombarding him with heavy stuff out of the blue. It gives him a chance to wrap up whatever he's doing and then shift gears.

    "Okay, fine," is usually my way of saying, "Okay, I don't want to argue about it anymore." It's my way of compromising and/or realizing I just need to pick my battles and let it go. If it's still a Big Deal, we'll continue to talk about it until we reach a compromise. I don't say, "That's fine," and then bring it up later, because that's stupid. If I say it's fine, it's fine.

    We're a very low B.S. household. We're both too direct for that passive-aggressive nonsense.

    i agree with that translation of "we need to talk" lol

    but not your translation of "thats fine"

    when a women says "that's fine". it is not fine. dont even think for one second its fine. do the complete opposite of what you you were going to do :):)

    why are we so complicated? :)

    I used to say this A LOT before I hired someone to clean our house once a week and gave myself a monthly allowance that is not to be questioned. Once I freed myself from an oppression that I allowed, we could talk on a more level basis. Saved my marriage, for sure!

    How about,
    "no, I'm not mad."

    Which actually means-
    "If you don't know why I am mad, I'm sure not going to tell you!"

    I don't believe I've ever said, "We need to talk." If something needs to be said, I say it. No need to preface it with a warning.

    I say, "That's fine" quite often, and I mean it. I wouldn't say it otherwise.

    I don't think I've ever said "We need to talk". I just start talking if we need to talk.

    I don't say "THAT'S fine" unless it is actually fine, but often I say "I'M fine" when I don't mean it. When I say I'm fine I usually mean I'm anything but fine, but I can't be bothered to talk about it at the moment.

    I just feel like you don't appreciate me. I do so much and all I want is a thank you once in a while. Is this too much to ask? Nevermind, I'm fine.

    You can't lay blame on women as an all encompassing reason for men's behavior which is what I feel like your statement is conveying.
    But I also know that you like to start controversial topics so to that I say, well done sir.
