Nine words women use

1. FINE: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
2. FIVE MINUTES: If she is getting dressed,
this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
3. NOTHING: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.
4. GO AHEAD: This is a dare, not permission. Don’t Do It!
5. LOUD SIGH: This is actually a word. It is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. 
A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. 
(Refer to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)
6. THAT’S OKAY: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That’s okay means she wants to think long and hard
before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
7. THANKS: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say ‘You’re welcome’. 
(I want to add in a clause here – this is true unless she says ‘Thanks a lot’ – that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say ‘you’re welcome’. That will bring on a ‘whatever’).
8. WHATEVER: Is a woman’s way of 
saying FORGET YOU!
9. DON’T WORRY ABOUT IT, I’VE GOT IT: Another dangerous statement,
meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking ‘What’s wrong?’ For the woman’s response refer to #3.
