    I'm reminded of one of Chris Rock's stand-up pieces...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMiyg87UhL4

    That's my favorite explanation of what a man means when he says something =)

    hmmm... i've found that when a man says something, that's usually just what he means. we women tend to be the ones who beat around the bush...

    I think there's probably an equal amount of men and women that do this, just with different phrases. We're all crazy in our special ways :)

    So true. Whenever my boyfriend says that I always say "Well that means no" afterwards.

    Come on and give a guy a break. Maybe, just maybe mind you, some guys might really mean what they say without underlying meanings. Of course it's true of some of us but not all. Women don't say things with underlying meanings do they????

    Here are a few examples for your entertainment –

    “Fine” The word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

    “Five Minutes” – If a woman is getting dressed and you ask are you ready and she says this it actually means half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you’ve just been given five minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

    “Nothing”- This is the calm before the storm. When you ask what’s the matter and she answers “Nothing” watch out. Nothing means something. Be on your toes here. Arguments that begin with “nothing” usually end in “Fine.”

    or: I slept with your sister.

    When MY man says, "We'll see." it means, "We'll see."
    When my man says, "Want a backrub?" it means, "Want a backrub?"
    When my man says, "How was your day?" it means he was genuinely interested in how my day was.

    Guess I'm just lucky.

    Make that three. My guy doesn't do double speak. He always says what he really means. And when I ask HIM for a back rub, he does it willingly, without expecting anything. Because sometimes, a back just needs a rub. But because he doesn't EXPECT anything...well now, he usually gets something. :wink:

    That's funny because I'm pretty much guilty of all of those. Except the 5 min deal. If I tell you I'll be ready in 5min then I'm ready in 5min. But the rest of them, most def. true. If I say "nothing" or "fine" you're pretty much screwed. :-)

    My husband does care how my day went, but if it was indeed bad, he'd like the summarized version.
