One of em dropped a 50kg steel plate onto my hand this morning at work. Because he thought I said yes when I said no. Luckily, it's not broke or owt, and most importantly it won't stop me from playing FIFA, drinking lager or not cooking food this weekend. But aye, send em back. Stealing our jobs and trying to break our hands.
Did this Johnny foreigner pass the UK entrance exam, which does have a language aspect to it? If he doesnt know the difference between a yes and a no, then you are fooooked. That said, ive been married to the missus for 20 years and she says i dont know the difference between a yes and a no.......and im born n bred in Barnsley, the capital of England (in my eyes anyway) !!!!!
I've been with my Missus for 12 years. Apparently when she says "just do what you want" she doesn't actually mean that! Maybe your missus and my missus have the same version of yes and no.
Every day I live on this planet I learn a little more about the female psyche.......and I know for sure, that I will never have a full understanding......and I accept that.
I think the main misunderstanding is that oftentimes when a woman gets upset about things, men often misinterpret it for anger. In the instance above, a woman might say 'do what you want' and then if a man does, the woman isn't necessarily angry that they did (although the argument might seem like that), but is upset that that is what the man wanted to do, even though they knew it would upset their missus i.e. they put the thing that they did above their missus' happiness. Disclaimer: I know not all women are like this.
"It's fine" is the worst. It actually means "it's not fine and I can't be arsed to argue with you or discuss it further because there's a decent chance you're right so instead I'm going to sit here with a face like thunder. Hopefully you'll think it'll be less hassle to apologise even though there's not really anything to apologise for. And if you ask me what's wrong or say anything more about it that's not an apology I'll just get even more p1ssed off."
What I dont' get is that after 12 years of me still assuming "just do what you want" means I can do "what I want" and then doing "what I want" she hasn't worked out that she has to be a tadd more precise if actually she wants me to do what she wants. Personally I think Whitey's foreigner has tapped of with an English bird and is as confused as ****. So when Whitey said no he automatically thought this mad English person meant yes.
She's probably upset that after 12 years you'd still rather choose the thing that is against her wishes, despite all the chances she gives you to choose the right thing. She's still desperately hoping that one day you'll care enough to pick the thing that makes her happy. (Edit: not saying that you don't care - she'll have just taken it that way most likely). Women are daft, we don't want to be seen to be bossing our men around or forcing you to do something you don't want, so we'd rather be unhappy and let you do what you want. That's daft enough as it is, but then we can't help showing that it's upset us, so we still look crazy anyway and we might as well have just said what we really want in the first place.
Well in that case why is mines always 'no' but in a German accent even tho she was born in Halifax? ???
Flipping heck M1. After 12 years you don't know that "Do what you want" actually means "IF you do that, then I'm not talking to you for a week!"
From foreigners to women... I'm not allowed to comment on foreigners as I am one, you could say the same goes for the other topic too
