16 Things Men Hate to Hear (Even When They Like or Love Us)

Want to annoy the man in your life both
instantly and profoundly? Want to make
him wish he lived alone in the Fortress
of Solitude or back in the one-room
apartment he had when you first met?
Say any of these well-known phrases on
a regular basis to your husband (or
boyfriend).
1. Tell me again: Why do you have to be
friends with her if you don't have
feelings for her anymore?
2. We need to talk. There's something I
have to tell you and I've been thinking
about how to say this for days.
3. I might have thrown it away; I don't
remember.
4. That's not where my clitoris is and,
umm, anyway, that's not how it's
pronounced.
5. Maybe I'd understand more about your
work if you made the effort to explain it
to me.
6. Well, it made me and my friends
laugh so I thought you'd enjoy it too.
Why do you have to roll your eyes like I
have no sense of humor?
7. A wittle baby-tawkie-walkie never
hurt a big boy like you, you cutie nobbly-
wobbly. Who cares if we're in a bar?
8. Just admit it, your mother and sister
don't like me.
9. Don't you know what today is?
10. How can they make you
uncomfortable? It's not like they're
hitting on YOU.
11. I'm not saying we ever will move in
together or get married, but if we do, I
know I'd like this tablecloth.
12. Of COURSE I think your band/writing/
animation/poetry/photography/idea for
an app is good.
13. How many people have you been
with, anyway?
14. Come look at this hilarious thing
about Ryan Gosling.
15. Why does it bother you how I spend
my money? You spend all your money on
stuff that I think is a waste of time.
16. Which of my friends would you sleep
with if I died?
You thought it was just women who
found certain phrases annoying? (Yeah,
right.)
