I'm an honorary card carrying member of the Minds of Men thanks to years of working at barbershops, gyms, and having more male friends than I can count. Yes, I'm really single. And no, I'm not ugly.

Six Words Men Should Never Say To A Woman

By Single Girl May 20, 2009 2:20 pm

There are some words women long to hear from their man. “I love you” tops the list followed in no particular order by “I need you”, “I miss you”, “Will you marry me?” All that is cute but let’s talk about the words women don’t want to hear. Not that the easy ones “I’m Gay”, “I’m Married” or “It’s Over.” I’m talking about six words that don’t seem harmless at first but soon can spread like cancer and destroy your relationship slowly. Men, these are six words you should never say to your woman:

“What you need to do is…”

I want to spit just having typed those words.

No man thinks that this is a big deal but once you start with those six lethal words the rest of the sentence is irrelevant because you girl is thinking, “I know this man ain’t just tell me what I need to do. Don’t he know I’m grown!”

Fellas, I know you heart is in the right place when use these words. You’re thinking that you are helping. Hell, most of the time your woman asked you for you opinion in the first place. Take it from me, start with something else like:

“Why don’t you…”

“Maybe you can…”

“Have you thought about…”

The reason why men don’t get why this matters is because…

    Ladies, ladies, ladies. Please answer this question. Im a Nigerian so maybe am getting it twisted. do most women prefer a married man? or its just my looks. You guys dont make it easy on us, the taken once. WHAT YOU GUYS NEED TO DO IS LOOK FOR SINGLE MEN AND STOP THINKING A MARRIED MAN WOULD LIVE HIS WIFE TO BE WITH YOU

    Which is the same as 3 words a woman says to a man….. “You need to…..”
    Which are code words for :-
    1) stop what you are doing right now
    2) do what I want right away
    3) and don’t forget to do that other thing while you are at it !

    The problem is really the 3rd one, because you never told us what “the other thing is” but we have to read your mind to figure out what it is we are supposed to remember ????? …….. aaaargh !!!!!

    Funny. My husband is a stubborn Capricorn and those six words come out of his mouth all the time. LOL! Sometimes I listen, sometimes I don’t. Sometimes he has great ideas and sometimes he doesn’t, but no one dictates to me.

    THANK YOU iKidis. Women love to tell men what they need to do but when you say the same thing to a woman they flip out. If you don’t want a man to tell you what to do then don’t say anything to us about what we need to do…

    P.S. Blackplanet
    What the hell is wrong with y’all? You tend to start rumors about black celebraties, tell black couple to live basically like white couples, truth be told, your news reporting does more damage than good so could you please straighten things out over there? We don’t need more stupidity for blacks….

    The reason why men don’t get why this matters is because… ITS BULLSHYT….

    How is it that women feel they can say whatever the hell they want but get upset when someone (MAN) tells them something like… “What You Need To Do”

    Get a grip and stop finding every little thing to freakin nag about….

    BP stop filling our beautiful black women’s minds with this negative garbage that they inevitably bring back to our doorsteps….

    Your advice is along the lines of Soap Opera’s and some of these chick flicks that are viewed and hurt more than they help…..

    Howbeit, effective communication is a fundamental key to relationship success, feeding into it by stating such a thing as Don’t say …. Does not help, it plants another foul seed and now its no longer about what needed to be said, but how its said…..

    Talk, understand, listen, hear, but most importantly Know who you are talking to and how they best respond overall to what you say…..
