What Women Say Versus What We Actually Mean

Okay, I guess we are complicated.

What Women Say Versus What We Actually Mean

People say women are complicated. But I like to think we are simple people; just feed us, love us and tell the truth and the rest usually will fall into place. However, I will agree that there are some cases where what we say isn’t always what we actually mean. Sometimes we are too stubborn to say our true feelings, or maybe we want you to figure out what we meant as part of a game to see how well you know us. Regardless, you poor souls are just left in the dark to decipher the mysterious “women code.”

When we say..

“K” we mean that you have severely pissed us off and we want you to know it. We also do not want you to have the last word in this conversation so saying this is our way of rubbing it in that we will win this argument.

“lol.” if you are hit with the non capitalized laughing out loud with a period after, you are in trouble. You have been continuing a fight that we are completely done having, or we are so mad and caught up in the moment with anger that this is our way of going completely off and yelling at you.

“Im fine” we mean that we are NOT fine! You should be very scared if we say this to you. And do not ask “are you sure” or say “well you don’t look like it,” this will only make us more upset.

“That’s funny” means that it actually isn’t funny at all, it was probably offensive or we are about to follow it up with a “Because what actually happened was ___ “.

"I'm tired" means that we are actually tired because whatever you have in mind of doing we are not in the mood. This is our nice way of saying we do not want to hang, or hope that you get the point to leave us alone.

“Yeah let's just reschedule.“ Saying this after you cancel on us means that it's actually not okay because I already have my make up done and outfit picked out and now it's wasted and there will not be a second chance.

"I'm on my way" means we still have wet hair and will probably be 30 minutes late.

"We need to talk" means that something serious has happened and if we do not discuss it soon it our relationship is over – if it isn’t already burning to the ground. P.S. be ready to apologize.

"We’ll see" means I am probably just not in the mood to talk and you will have to ask me several more times for me to think about my answer before finally saying no.

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.
