Words

The following are list of words and phrases that have a unique meaning in the female vocabulary!
Fine - This is the word woman use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
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 minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
Nothing - This is the calm before the storm. Nothing means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.
Go Ahead - This is a dare, not permission. Whatever it was you were going to do, don't do it.
Loud Sigh - Not a word but a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. It means she thinks you are wasting her time standing here and arguing about nothing (which is a very different nothing to the one listed earlier)
That's Okay - This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. That's ok means she is thinking long and hard about how you will pay for your mistake.
Thanks - A woman is thanking you. Do not question, do not faint. Just say "You're welcome"
Whatever - Is a woman's way of saying "This converstaion is terminated."
Don't worry about it, I'll do it - Another dangerous statement meaning a woman is now having to do a task she told a man to do several times - and is not very happy about it. This will later result in a man asking "What's wrong."
So there are the woman's meaning, but hang on, men don't get away that easy!
Men's innocnent words and phrases.
Fine - That is what men say when you ask them how you look when you are dressed to the nines.
In a minute - Translation - I'll do it when I'm good and ready.
Nothing - The standard reply when you ask him how much he's drunk/eaten or what he's been doing when he arrives home late for his tea.
Go Ahead - It is usually the phrase he comes out with when there's a holiday or a night out you want to book but he can't be bothered to even think about. You might think his go ahead gives you full permission, but it doesn't. All it does is land you with the blame if whatever you booked was rubbish.
I'm Thinking Of Buying - Whatever it is he's already bought it. This is just his way of conning you into thinking your opinion is being considered.
How Much? - What he replies when you tell him what your recent purchase "only" cost. Or the price tag on that thing you want him to get you for your birthday.
I'm not wearing/doing/saying THAT - This is usually said in a school boy like defiance when you're trying to give him a carefully considered piece of advice.
I'll only have the one pint - This is a pacifier. Don't be fooled.
I'll only watch the highlights - Same as above.
Haven't you got anything else to wear? - What he says when you are dressed to the nines and he doesn't think you look fine.

This was in the local evening paper and I thought I would share it with you all, and I bet you have all got words and phrases that you could add to it!
