Men
1) "If you dont want to, you dont have to."
I am hoping showing you respect will change your mind.
2)"You look good."
This means different things depending on which stage of the relationship you are in.
(a) If you've just begun dating:You look hot. My friends are going to be so jealous.
(b)Steady relationship: Thank God! I'm so glad you're wearing an outfit that wont attract creeps.
3)"Let's go someplace else."
I just saw someone who knows me and I dont want them to see me with you. The red flag should go up if he never wants to hang out where he lives.
4)"Let's meet up with my friends."
THis could go both ways. Either this date is boring or I really like you and want to see what my friends think.
5)"There's a match tonight."(in casual conversation)
You can come if you promise to sit quitely, otherwise dont even think of making plans for us tonight.
6)"Let's end it before one of us gets work."
I am cheating/about to cheat on you.
7)"You deserve someone better."
Two timing you is getting too stressful. Let's end this now.
8)"Let me drop you home."
Let me score some points in the chivalry department and move towards 'having coffee' at your place.
9)"This party is boring. Let's go someplace interesting."
Let's go to a place where I can cosy up and possibly kiss you.
10)"Have you done something to your hair?"
You look a bit different but I'm not sure why. I'm just taking a guess here to be safe.
11)"Let's hang out with your friends."
I want to see if you know any hot girls.
12)"I feel like having(insert a food name here)"
Get up and make that for me.
13)"I'm bored, let's do something."
Plan a date without my input, or lets have sex.
14)"Are you sure you're going to be okay?"
Please, please let me off the hook.
15)"I've never said this to anyone."
I'm hoping this show of vulnerability gets me into your pants.
16)"She's the kind of girl boys like."
She's a tease and we know it but we're hoping one of us strikes lucky with her.
17)"Hmmm"
Interpret it the way you want. I dont think this requires me taking time off my cricket match/office phone call.
Women
1)"Do what you want."
We've been together long enough for you to know what i want. Why are you still asking me?(Sometimes this is also an open challenge. "Go ahead, I dare you to do that and see what happens.")
2)"We need to talk."
You need to sit and listen while I list all the things you've done wrong.
3)"I really dont want to talk right now."
As soon as I hang up, you better call back and prise it out of me.
4)"I am putting up with you because of the children."
I have no money and cant go back to my parents.
5)""Wow!Isnt this great?Doesnt it look good on me?"
Buy it for me. You'll be rewarded.
6)"Im hanging out with my mother this weekend"
I dont want to serve family time alone. I'm waiting for you to volunteer to do this with me.
7)"I can do this myself."
No, I cant. Help me!
8)"Can we meet tonight after you've finished work?"
I know you're busy but i want you to choose work over me.
9)"I'll have to see what im doing."
I have no plans in the forseeable future but dont want to seem easy.
10)"Do you like dogs/romcoms/treks/thai food?"
I like it and if you dont you better develop a liking if you want this to go on.
11)"We should talk about it."
Why cant you just say what I know you're thinking and give me a chance to rationalise it and prove you're wrong?
12)"Why are you so quite?"/"What are you thinking?"
Out with the real story on where you went last night under the pretext of 'watching IPL with friends'.Conversely it may also mean 'say something romantic.'
13)"You remember my friend XYZ? She just got engaged/married/preganant."
It is time I do.
14)"Isnt she hot?"
Say I look hotter.
15)"Let me go, I'm late."
Dont stop what you're doing. It feels good.
16) "Im bored. Let's do something."
Plan a multiple destination date without my input.
17)"You dont understand."
Sit down and listen to me talk in minute detail about my feelings and sympathise periodically.
18)"I want to connect emotionally."
I dont think we should be having sex yet.
19)"what do you think?"
Im only making it seem that your opinion matters. It doesnt.
P.S. Do not know how true this is. Saw it in the mumbai mirror. Just thought I'd put it down.
