There are some things a man should never, ever say to his wife. Well ladies, that goes both ways. Woman have certainly been known to stick a foot in their mouths too.
Here are the 12 questions, comments, and complaints no man wants to hear from the woman he loves:
- "My ex always appreciated when I ..." No guy wants to be compared to some jerk you broke up with a long time ago. If he was so great, why aren't you still with him?
- "Does this make me look fat?" Do you really want an honest answer if that answer is yes? I didn't think so. Save both of you the anguish.
- "Are you using your Rogaine?" If he's losing his hair, he doesn't need your so-called helpful reminder. Trust me, that receding hairline bothers him way more than it bothers you.
- "Hold my purse." I have yet to meet a man who is comfortable with this demand. The only thing worse is having to hold it outside a dressing room while you try on a million pairs of jeans.
- "Is it in yet?" Well, if you are talking about a DVD, this one is fine. If it's during sex, just figure out the answer on your own.
- "Do you think that girl is hot?" By now, every guy should know this is a trap. If you think she's hot, chances are he does. Nothing good can come from him telling you that.
- "I don't care what team is playing. We need to talk about ..." Guys dream all day about coming home and watching the game. Let them have those two hours.
- "I hate your mother!" Trust me, he knows. He can feel the tension every time you two are in the room together.
- "I don't really need sex." Come on! You need sex, but maybe not the way you've been having it. Find a sensitive way of telling him what to do differently.
- "You can't fix that?!" Not every guy has an inner handyman. Don't beat him up for that, just have a plumber's number handy.
- "Why don't you ever buy me stuff like her husband does?" That neighbor may have nice, new bling but you have no idea what her man is like behind closed doors.
- "Are you gonna eat that?" You know how much you hate jibes about your weight? Well, so does he.
What are other things a woman should never say to her man?

Sometimes asking those questions just for the look (like am I fat, is she hot, or you can't fix that?) are worth it :) My babe and I have a sarcastic dry humor relationship and no matter what the answer is, his little eyebrow raise are always sure to bring a smile. And, I have a kinda man bag looking purse and he stores more of his crap in it than I do (meh maybe not so much more) and he knows that if my purse hurts his shoulder while he holds it, a massage always follows lol.
um, if your husband gets offended when asked "is it in yet?" then maybe y'all shouldn't be having sex. sometimes things aren't as moist as you'd like them to be. if you're going to be intimate with someone, it requires completely openess and the ability to let your guard down.
I don't carry a purse, takes to much time to look through it for something, pockets are awesome. He does carry the diaper bag, buy the tampons/pads, and another other feminine product that I have had to use. As others have said, I would like an honest answer to does this make me look fat. He has a better fashion sense than I do. Hell, I find a t-shirt, pants whatever and put it on, so yes I do like to look somewhat good going out into public. I never have to ask are you going to eat that, he usually asks me. Because he is the only one working right now, when he buys me something, I am just overly excited that he did. As for the rest, they do not apply.
they just posted this article a few weeks ago. Stupid article. How about we just paranoid everyone.... I don't need to read about something stupid about what not to do... people aren't perfect.
Question number 2, I always ask that question or at least along those lines. And yes, I want the honest answer and yes, he gives it to me. If I can't trust my husband to tell me if I look good or not what else can't I trust him with. I want to know if I look fat or like a dork before I live the house, and it's really important to me to look good to my husband cause he likes to be seen with me and know that other guys are thinking he's a lucky man. He says since they can't taste my cooking, see how well I clean our house or raise our kids at least they can see how lucky he is to have a hot wife. Lol. And no I do not dress like a slut! I'm married with children. You can dress conservative and still look sexy. This ain't for sale and so it's not on advertistment.
