Have you ever wondered why sometimes it’s really difficult to understand or please the women in your life? Why no matter what you do or say to your female friend, girlfriend, wife, sister or mother, you somehow fall short of their expectations?
Women are complex and not as straightforward in expressing their feelings as men are. Understanding women has become quite a challenge for the opposite sex and who can blame them? Sometimes women don’t even understand themselves.
In order to understand your partner, you need to master the art of reading their body language and the tone of their voice, because the most pleasant of things can sometimes have a different meaning altogether.
Not to worry though, we are here to make your life so much easier, to help you better understand what women mean when they say certain things. Let’s get down to the business of deciphering the enigma that is the female mind.

“Especially if they just met you, they are either: trying to find out if you have a girlfriend or acknowledging you have a girlfriend.
