"Fine"
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up. When a woman says "fine," it's her way of signaling that the conversation is over, and any further discussion will only escalate the situation. Understanding this subtle cue can save you from unnecessary conflict. It's a diplomatic yet firm way to declare victory in the debate and indicate that she's done with the topic. Ignoring this can lead to even bigger issues, so it's best to acknowledge and move on. In essence, "fine" is the universal code for closure.
"Five Minutes"
If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
Frequently asked questions
"Nothing"
This is the calm before the storm. This means something,and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.
"Go Ahead"
This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.
"Loud Sigh"
This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

"That's Okay"
This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
"Thanks"
A woman is thanking you, do not question or faint. Just say "you're welcome". (I want to add in a clause here - this is true, unless she says "Thanks a lot" - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say "you're welcome" ... that will bring on 'whatever').
A woman is thanking you, do not question or faint. Just say "you're welcome". Unless she says "Thanks a lot"—that is PURE sarcasm, and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say "you're welcome" in response to that; such a reply will bring on a 'whatever'. Instead, it might be safer to gauge her tone and facial expression before responding. If the gratitude seems genuine, a sincere acceptance will suffice. However, if you sense an underlying tension, it’s best to tread cautiously, as navigating the intricacies of sarcastic gratitude can be a delicate art.
"Whatever"
Is a women's way of saying F-YOU!
Is a women's way of saying F-YOU! It's often used to shut down a conversation or argument when she's had enough and doesn't want to engage anymore. You might think she's being casual or indifferent, but make no mistake, when she says "Whatever," it's a definitive sign that she's not happy with how things are going. It’s her polite way of expressing frustration or displeasure without getting into a heated confrontation. That single word carries a lot of underlying tension and should be taken as a cue to re-evaluate the situation immediately.
"Don't Worry about It, I've Got It"
Another dangerous statement, meaning you knew it had to be done but you were lazy to do it and had to wait till i came home to do it. Men should automatically know it has to be done, also, this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'what's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to #3.
