Just for fun., Here's how a woman "communicates" with her man, using only
nine words.
These are nine words or phrases that husbands across the land know all
about, understand, and learn to be quite attentive to:
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, but 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 back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)
6. That's Just Okay - This is one of the most dangerous statements a women
can make to a man. That's just 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.
8. Whatever - Is a women's way of saying *&$# YOU!
9. Don't worry about it, I 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.
Isn't it amazing how God has equipped wives to communicate so well with
us.
Listen to my 8 minute radio show download, Men Need Respect - Women Need
Security, for how a male and female needs can differ.
It is our belief at Men Who Win, that if a community and families are to
change, men first have to change. The driving force and purpose of Men Who
Win - is to challenge, train, and build up guys so they can live out God's
purpose, power, and life. Sounds strikingly similar to The Great
Commission, doesn't it?
