Girl: Do you have a girlfriend?
Boy: No.
Girl: Come on, a guy like you must surely have a long list of girl friends.
Boy: Believe me. I don't have a girlfriend.
Girl: That can't be true. You are blah blah blah (launches into a lengthy description of his good qualities, some of which even he is not fully aware of)
Boy: Alright then. I like you very much. Will you go around with me?
Girl: Please! You will find someone much better.
Do you have any idea what just happened here. On the top of things it seems as if the girl really admires him and doesn't wanna come in the way of his bright future prospects. But what really happened is that the boy got smacked right in his face and he didn't even realise it.
The last line says it all. The guy thinks that whatever the girl just said is all true and he has a hope of finding someone even better than her. But what the poor guy doesn't realise is that the girl has just let him off easy. What she really meant was "Jeez! have you taken a good look at yourself in the mirror. I wouldn't be even caught dead with you let alone go out with you. Get a life loser."
Its the basic difference in the way men and women communicate. Men will just blurt out whatever is on their mind (and this is exactly what lands them in trouble most of the times) whereas women can never ever tell things the way they are. They always mean something totally opposite to what they say. For example, if you ask a woman, "What's wrong?" she'll say "Nothing" whereas what she actually meant was "All hell has broken loose on me. What am I gonna do now. I need someone to talk to.". The same answer "Nothing" coming from a man in a similar situation actually means "Nothing". Men can only understand whatever is stated clearly to them (so the next time you feel the urge to call us insensitive jerks, just remember this).
Women always have to find out what's going on in a man's head but then they are not prepared to listen to stuff revolving around sports, cars, business or sex (not particularly in that order). Seriously girls what else do you think goes on inside a man's head.
Many a times my female friends ask me to suggest gift options for their boyfriends. I wanna make this very clear, whatever you give them is absolutely fine coz they do not expect gifts in the first place. And one more thing don't expect them to jump with joy when they open your gift (unless you are gifting them a car or a laptop or something like that). "Its nice" coming from a guy translates to "Oh my God! It's lovely. I absolutely adore it. You are such a darling. I love you honey" coming from a girl. If you gift them a shirt (or any accessory) and they haven't worn it even once in the next three months means that they hate it. Don't make a big fuss about it. It's still lying somewhere in their closet (which encompasses the entire room) coz its a gift from you and they don't wanna hurt your feelings. But they still won't wear it. So for a smooth sailing don't push them to.
