    If you’re also accepting non-questions, one of the most annoying things women do is be visibly upset but respond with “I’m fine” when you try to find out what’s bothering them, or when you can tell they really don’t want to go somewhere or do something but they give you a “it’s fine” and refuse to accept any alternatives

    Then they throw it back at you for not reading their minds or something, like you’re supposed to just magically know what’s going on

      🤣

      My favorite is taking the unopenable jar, using a knife to gently pry one of the lid sides enough for air to go in, then just effortlessly open it.

        Yeah but we’re usually thinking about nothing or nonsense (would a hippo beat a killer whale in a fight?), which we don’t want to admit, so you think we’re thinking about other women.

            Sometimes. For me, the real answer is usually too long.

            For example I’ll list 5 things, and she doesn’t understand 4 of them. So I spend a few minutes explaining one of them, at which point she will realize how boring it is and lose interest. After a few times she will stop asking.

            I learned that the correct answer is short and simple. Like “How lucky I am to have you”, “What to cook for dinner”, “What is that smell, it might be me” or maybe just “work”.

            Also, it has to match the facial expression I had right before she asked. Sometimes the hard part is to figure out what that was.
