TIL : you should never call a man a " nice guy . "
I don’t know about you, but as a woman, I understand little to nothing about the male species. So recently, I took tor/AskMenon Reddit to learn about theall-time WORST thingsa woman can say to a man — phrases and sentences that just rip their hearts out.
Without further ado, here are some of the top-voted and most interesting answers:
1."‘You’re just like your father.’ That one hits deep and can trigger all sorts of introspection — or panic."

2.“The vulnerability he expressed being used as a weapon later on because she knew it would hurt him. That’s pure malice.”

" I ’m so panic-struck to ever spread up to any pardner ever again on a lot of topics because it just seems like ammunition for when they are unhappy down the route . "

" Using something you never tell anyone else against you . "
– atomic number 92 / Personal_Term3858
3.“Either ‘I love you, but I’m not in love with you,’ or ‘I have fallen out of love with you.'”

" ' I said I roll in the hay you back because I did n’t know what else to say . ' "
– u / aakash_is_legend
4.“To me, the most hurtful thing was getting nothing at all. I got broken up with and asked what I did that caused this, and she replied ‘I don’t know.’ That sentence sat in my head for months. After 3 years I got ‘I don’t know’… I’d rather get told anything else than ‘I don’t know.'”

– u / UndeadSickness

6."‘His jokes are funnier.’ Might as well be saying you want a divorce."

" It ’s because we ’re told ' if you could make her gag , you do n’t need to be as handsome as others . ' So it ’s kind of our first line of defense mechanism or onslaught when we ’re trying to pick a fair sex up : be prissy , be funny … and MAYBE we ’ll have a shot . "

7.“When you’re trying to communicate your wants and needs in a friendship or relationship and they basically say ‘This is who I am, I’m not going to accommodate you.'”

With the sweat, my hair looked even thinner and closer to what I would actually look like completely bald.
