What Girls Say Vs. What We Actually Mean

We expect you to know what we mean without actually saying what we mean, so it's best you start to understand our language. You're welcome.

What Girls Say Vs. What We Actually Mean
Alexis

Guys and girls aren't that different. They both say things and mean something completely different, and they both expect you to know what they actually meant without them saying it. It's no surprise that men have trouble deciphering what us females are trying to tell them and vice versa. If you're having a little trouble trying to decipher what we girls actually mean, keep reading, and you're welcome.

1. When a girl says, "No, I'm not mad. Why would I be mad?"


This phrase most definitely means that we are mad. We are just trying to hide the fact that we are. We are basically giving you a get out of jail free card by allowing you to think about what you did wrong or what is upsetting us.

2. When a girl says "So what happened? or "What did you do last night?"

Do not try and lie. She doesn't really need you to explain anything. She already knows it all. She is just trying to see if you'll lie about it. Trust me when I say you shouldn't lie. It'll only be worse.

3. When a girl says "No, I'm not hungry."

She may not be comfortable enough to eat in front of you yet but this is always a lie. We are always hungry. So just pull into an Olive Garden. Nobody can turn down those breadsticks. We eat even when we are not hungry.

4. When a girl says "Who is she?"

We already know who she is. After you liked her picture or she liked yours, we stalked her Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and even her old Myspace. We may even know her social security number, so telling us you don't know her isn't going to fly.

5. When a girl says "Okay, have fun"

You may think that this means what it is being said but you're wrong. Go and have fun with your friends. I won't be mad, but in reality I am super upset and am plotting ways to get back at you. Payback is a bitch.

6. When a girl says "I don't care."

I do care, and I'm mad at you, and you should probably figure out why because I'm not going to tell you. You will receive the silent treatment until you fix what you did, whether it is your fault or not.

As long as you can understand that what we say and what we mean are two completely different things, you're in good shape.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
