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.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
