Girls don't wanna hear the whole truth.. (Page 2)

[Anonymous]

If you don't want the truth, you shouldn't ask me.

But I just wrote earlier:

When girl says something in a statement form, she wants you to listen and agree.

But when a girl asks in a question form, she wants your input and advice.

But if she asks something and you don't want to hurt her feelings, you can just say 'I don't know' or direct her to someone else who can better answer her question.

She asks 'Does this dress make me look fat?'

I stay quiet, and write down the number to the writer of 'Fashion Police' of US Weekly Magazine.

The problem arises where the guy gets the impression that the only way to make his girl happy is to tell her what he *thinks* she wants to hear and not in the context of her seeking reassurance. To tell you the truth, a guy just isn't going to be thinking about a girl's boobs or butt in the context of how big they are all that often.

[Tdieseler]

stick to the first phrase bro... and yea, thats the reason we lie. they DO wana hear what they wana hear, its guys that actually like to hear truth

[Anonymous]

sometime yeah, we want to just get a compliment, and either we fish for it. But most of the time I really just want the honest truth, and I do not like to questions about me that I can not really change. But if I wear a really ugly top, or there are some things that I can and should change. I want to hear it. Not in a REALLY brutal ¨way, but in a nice way. then I get grateful.

[Yc2K15]

Yeah you just need to understand constructive criticism. If your partner thinks your tops ugly he should say it. You as a woman should understand he isn't dating you because he thinks your ugly. I hope you stick by your word because a lot of girls say this and lose it when it comes to the crunch.

if you are random guy just coming up and like you're top is ugly, yeah I would be a bit annoyed. But if I know you and you come up telling me, then I would be ok. Or if a frind comes up a tell if I have bad breath I would get really grateful, because I do not want to go around all day with bad breath, that other can smell.

I don't ask my boyfriend how I look, I know I look FABULOUS. ;) Only joking but seriously, I'm insecure but I don't constantly require reassurance from him about how I look. It's often what I wear that makes me feel good.

[molan]

Reassurance is not just about look, but personality, hope for the future etc. as well.

[Mesonfielde]

I think what you guys need is not reassurance, it's proper self-esteem. If I don't like one of the clothings of your choice, it is only reasonable that i say so than just look at you funny.

[Overactivetits]

Any guy who's going to lie to you, whether to exaggerate his attraction or feign disinterest, does not respect you. And any girl that needs to be lied to to get off, doesn't deserve respect, and she doesn't respect herself.

[QTeamBrains]

I don't think white lies should be tolerated if people want healthy relationships. The "as long as it makes him/her happy" mentality is a slippery slope. I think reassurance of attraction makes sense, but to lie? Just seems like that encourages unhealthy behavior.

[PsyNoodles]

I tell my girlfriends how gorgeous they are just naturally I don't have to think about it. If the guy or girl likes you enough they won't have to lie, it will be the truth.

[kangy]

If the person is not attractive I won't say she is. Either I dont comment or I wld comment you look fine (which means average). Not gonna lie about it.

[Izzex3]

If I ask someone something then yes I do want to know the whole truth.
There are some girls that don't though just like there are some guys that don't.

[Tdieseler]

I thought that applied to all girls... there's always something that girls appreciate being lied to about. They fold it as reassurance and move on lol. Ugh, i hate doing that.

[cuzzy]

Yea right oh mateie. I dont think my girl would a like being lied to. But I dont have to caus to me she is beautiful.

[Anonymous]

This is one of those occasions where women want you to lie to them. Except they're not lies because they make them feel better. Lies are only things that make them feel bad. Truth is all about how it makes you feel...

[fiego]

Interesting advice. What suggestion do you have for when your GF asks what outfit looks better and you think they look the same?

[Attila]

yea... when girls fake orgasms... I feel like a man. But not all girls can fake an orgasm convincingly...

[srslyly]

That makes perfect sense. You are completely rational.

[Anonymous]

'it's because he didn't care enough to lie to me'
lmao id be happy if you leave!!! who the hell has time for this shitty games?

[whitespider10]

tell me about it, double standards with girls these days

[Nature_is_Biased]

In other words, you just like being like to when it comes to your looks.

Anyone else not see how this can cause communication problems in relationships?

[helpman]

Then y in the hell gals say
honest opinion only plzzz
only truth

[Tdieseler]

girls always ask for the truth. fact is only maybe 40% of them can handle it.

[helpman]

[kangy]

[helpman]

@Tdieseler
Sarcasm?

[helpman]

@kangy
Yes thankyou
girls r really confusing!!

[Tdieseler]

oh... maybe i did. well you are welcome then.
usually when someone repeats something that the first person said, and the first person says thanks... thats usually sarcastic. a simple "i know right!!" could have been easier.

[helpman]

[CCC89]

Asking here on GAG though, is not what you're supposed to do. You ask the people who care about you

[koko124]

You're gonna get a lot of flak from the women of GaG on this :DD
