5 Things That Women Wish Men Knew About Them
Friday, April 10th, 2009
Understanding a woman is not easy task. Each woman is different, yet there are certain characteristics and qualities that almost all women share. Most of these things, though are still a mystery to most men. Well, I am going to let you in on a few secrets. Here are 5 things that women wish that men knew about them.
1. Women are insecure with their bodies. This goes for all women, not just the women who you may think have a reason to be insecure. I have never met one woman in my life who has been completely happy with her body. It could be that she could stand to lose 10 pounds or maybe even 50, or she hates the way her nose looks, or she can’t stand how tall/short she is. Be kind when it comes to a woman’s body. In case you missed it, read up on this post here.
2. We are not your mothers/slaves. This means that even though we may be your girlfriend or your wife, we still don’t want to have to clean up after you all the time. You are a grown man and are perfectly capable of cleaning up your own socks off the floor or making your own lunch for work. We don’t appreciate being treated this way, as again we are not your mothers!
3. We like romance and we like our kind of romance. Now, to some men, romance may mean you kiss her hello and tell her you love her and that’s the end. No, women like the romantic gestures that they see on movies and television. We want to be the women who gets swept off our feet by our men. We want true romance. If you are looking for what we want, just watch a movie like The Notebook, Sleepless in Seattle, or Pretty Woman.
4. Even though we may say everything is okay to you or that nothing is wrong, it most likely isn’t. Women have the tendency to keep things inside until they are ready to talk about it. We like to do it on our terms, not yours. So, don’t keep pressing the issue. Instead, give her a little space and time and soon enough she will open up and tell you exactly what is going on with her.
5. Women have a sixth sense and can tell when a man is lying or hiding something from her. Yes, this means that what you thought you were hiding from your girlfriend or wife, she most likely knows. Men are not as good as lying/hiding things as they think they are. There are certain exceptions to this, as there are to anything in life, as there are some people, both women and men that are just excellent liars. Just beware the next time that you go to tell your wife a lie, she knows!

ok im sure woman do have a sixth sense but what about the woman that “think” we are lying or hiding something from them when we really arent?
Im sure this “six sense” may be true most of the time but there are sometimes that is is totally wrong and it is insecurity instead… Some of us guys really are honest and telling the truth. And just becuase a woman has had alot of liars in her life does not mean that all guys are the same… some of us have morals and prefer to tell the truth. its to much wasted energy to lie so be carefull what u ask us becuase some of us will be honest even if you dont like the answer…. ( like “does this dress make me look big?”) and if the answer is “yes” then thats what your gonna hear…. lol… if you arent ready for the answer then dont ask the question…. lol…
Basically i get tired of being accused of “hidding something” and treated like someone i am NOT …. it gets old quick…
