Decoding the things women say

What women say: ‘I’m not upset’

When a woman says that she is fine, she often is far from OK. What she really means is: “the issue we were just talking about is still upsetting me, but I’m too embarrassed or too angry to continue with our ‘discussion’ (AKA argument)”. When she says she is fine, tell her that: ‘I know you too well and I know you are not fine. I want to help you and sort this situation out, but I can’t until you let me know what is wrong.”
