It might be impossible for a man to voice out these things, but men definitely want their girlfriends to know them. Men find it tough to read women. They can spend a lifetime and still not come close to understanding the intricate mystery that is a female psyche. It’s a lost cause and men might as well admit defeat. But to be fair ladies, how well do we know men? Chances are not nearly as well as we should. Let’s start with the basics – men are less complex animals and believe in leading a simple life. No drama! We did a bit of a survey and this is what men had to say. Ladies, time to take notes, as this might make it easier to live in the same world as men. Irrespective of whether these points hold true to you or not, we urge you to take it in fun spirit. “Don’t Try to Change Us” The logic is simple – love him the way he is or not at all. And it works both ways. “Stop Snooping into Our Phones” As much as your hand tickles to snap that phone up and take a peek, resist the urge. There are a few times in life when you need to back off and this is one of them. “Leave Our Past Where It Belongs – In the Past” Bringing up the past every time you have a row is playing it dirty. Focus on the issue at hand, PLEASE! “Spare us the Period Talk” Can’t help you there boys. She is going through awful lot and you will do well by being a doting and caring beau that you are. “Don’t Obsess Over Your Weight” The world won’t topple over if you put on a few pounds. If anything, you look cute. So, unless you have blown out of proportion overnight, you look just fine. “Keep Smiling” – There Is Nothing More Beautiful Remember during rough times, when he kept cracking lame jokes. It is not because he is never serious in life. It is because he wants to see you smiling always. “Spare Us the Silent Treatment” Men are no psychic or mind readers. Rather than expecting them to read between the lines, be upfront and tell them what the issue is. “We Prefer Calls over Texts” Men have no patience to punch a lengthy love ode over text. Good ol’ phone calls would be really appreciated. Never Say “Lose Your Friend” Say this and you will be booted permanently from his life. His friends have been longer in his life than you. So, even if you don’t particularly like them, learn to put up with them, just the way he is probably putting up with yours. “We Love When You Are Game to Trying New Things” Whether it’s about trying new cuisine or embarking on an adventure, guys dig chicks, who are game to trying new things. “We Can’t Help Checking Out Girls” It’s like a reflex; men can’t help it. So, unless he is literally drooling over a girl, in which case, you have every right to whack him on the head. On other instances, learn to ignore the minor slipups. “Shopping is Not the Answer to All Problems” You might think a new pair of cute shoes can make the world a better place to live, but men don’t get it. “We Love When You Take Effort to Look Pretty For Us” Your disheveled-early-morning look is hot no doubt, but we love the effort you take at times to look pretty just for us! “Taking Initiative Once in a While Won’t Kill You” You want him to bring you flowers, shower you with praises and play your bodyguard, but every once in a while, it won’t hurt you to do something for him too. He will love you for it! “Emotional Blackmailing Is the Worst Trick in the Book” Emotional blackmailing is bad news. In short term you may get what you want, but it will have repercussions you don’t want to face. “We Need You to Need Us” Independent, liberated and strong willed – you might be all that and more, but leaning on to him for support does not make you weak. “We Strongly Dislike All Your Male Friends” He may pretend to be fine with all your male friends, but he is NOT. Bad mouth about him to your girls and he will be fine; do that with your male friend, he will have a serious bone to pick with you. “Personality Matters” No matter how stunningly beautiful you are, if you have a waspy tongue and a bitchy attitude, it is goodbye, adios, sayonara for men. “Sports is Sacred to Us” Sports for a man is like make-up for women; never interrupt them! “We Might Not Say It Enough, but We Love You” If the guy loves you, he will do just about anything to keep you happy. He might not say it enough, but deep down you know he loves you…a lot!
