WORDS WOMEN USE
1 - FINE: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right, and you need to shut up.
2 - FIVE MINUTES: If she is getting dressed, this means 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.
3 - 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 (see #1).
4 - GO AHEAD: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
5 - LOUD SIGH: This is not actually a word but 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.)
6 - THAT'S OK: This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman 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.
7 - THANKS: A woman is thanking you - do not question or faint. Just say you're welcome.
9 - Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning 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.)

Speaking of loud sighing, I sigh a lot. I've even been accused of beginning this habit in people I work with, and sometimes I catch Joey sighing a lot. There's no particular reason . . . it doesn't mean I'm angry or upset (although sometimes people interpret it that way). Dad said that either Grandma or Grandpa K sighed a lot . . . so - is this a family trait? Does anyone else do this?
I remember my mom sighing a lot when we were kids. It used to bug Dad. He'd say, "What's wrong?" and she'd answer, "Nothing." I remember he'd say, "Sighing means something!"
It's not a word, but eye-rolling falls into this category. It's as if to say, "How could you be so dumb." I did this on Sunday when something happened (which I won't mention in case Jerry reads the blog) and Jason caught me. He told my girls to never do that when they get married!
