I don't know where this assumption comes from??? When I say yes, I mean yes, when I say no, I mean no. I can't say that I've run into many people out there of either sex that do this.

All women dont say yes when they mean no and vice versa. As for me, when I say no I mean no...Yes to me means yes.

I don't understand either ... I have girlfriends and they'll say ... I tried to talk to him about such and such and he just doesn't get it ... when I say what did you say to him they'll say ... well.. I told him blablbla so you'd think he would get it ... It frustrates me because I'm always telling them ... why can't you say to him what you say to me ... my god ... you love this man .... tell him what's on your mind... and if you're gonna make him "figure it out" then you don't get to be mad if he doesn't!

It seems that a lot (not all) of YOUNGER women do that. It's just a game.
Usually they don't even know the rules to this game...but they play play play.
When they grow up a bit, the game gets boring and they stop!

Haha, the time this really applies to women is when they don't want to come off as a slut. For instance, before a date they may say, "I'm not going to sleep with you." This actually means we're going to f**k tonight if everything goes right. Or when you invite them in and they say, "Ok, but I don't want you to get the wrong impression." This means, I want you to f**k me but you're going to have to play your cards right.

Exactly.
When she says that that means he's already decided to bang you.

When she says "No" to you, Castanova, she means "No".
When she says no to me it means she wants to see me use my Amex Black Card before she bangs the hell of of me.

My Grandpa said:
The difference between a Lady and a Politician:
When she says No she means MAYBE
When she says Maybe she means Yes
And she never ever says YES..... otherwise she isn't a lady.
When he says Yes he means MAYBE
when he says MAYBE he means NO
AND he never ever says NO.... otherwise he isn't a politician.
Now you know why we have so many female politicians today, we never ever know what they mean.

You all are killing me!!!!
The questions asked aren’t about simple “Yes” or “No” questions. Of course everyone answer “Yes” when they mean “Yes” and “No” when they mean “No” when asked a simple Yes-No question.
What the OP means is when the NBA game starts at 4:00pm and the guy asked at 2:30pm “Do you want to go to the Mall and pick out that furniture now?” and the woman replies “No”, because she knows there is no way she going to walk through a mall with all her favorite stores inside and pick out furniture and be back home by 4:00pm. So when they guys says, “Okay, will go next week.” And then later on that night, (after the game) he asked, why did you change your mind about going to the mall, and she replies, “I really wanted to go.”
So why do women say “No” when they mean “Yes” or vice versa? It is because women look into the future and us men only look in the present. You see thing coming that we don’t, so you answer accordingly and later tell us, what your real answer wanted to be.
OP Is this what you meant??????

A: A man would never ask why the women changed her mind. They don't think it that far though.
B: A woman would never let you peacefully watch the game. You would in the first quarter.

Maybe I gave a bad example. It is becuase I didn't want create an sex. Like when a woman wants too, but afraid the guy will think she is a "Ho", so she says "No", but she shows all signs of wanting too and waits unpatiently until the guys says something that will make her feel special. meanwhile the guy is trying to make her say "Yes", so he say anything and everything, until she says "Yes" or until she realize he not going too and gives up...and then later tells him she meant "Yes", without the explaination why she said "No".
Now I dug myself a hole...I won't be getting out for a long while...(smile)

Just teasing you a bit . I think that no matter what the sex, some people are "listen to what I say, not how I say it" and some people are "listen to how I say it, not what I say"-if that makes any sense. I have encountered more of that scenario versus the yes means no scenario.

While none of the women on DH would ever do such a thing , most men have met women who do exactly that.
When a woman says I don't care what we do tonight honey, really means this is a test to see if you know what I like and will do it instead of doing what you want to do.
See how simple that is

Nah, no hole,...I (we) got it...Your posts or so well thought out, I just thought I'd throw what I could...lol.
IMO,...people like that are, for lack of a better over-used word, Childish...and may remain that way forever. Some, grew up with that "I need someone to tell me it's ok" mentality. While others know exactly what they want and will tell you, without worrying of what others are going to think because they live their lives thinking for themselves. The males just have to figure out what kind of "woman" they are really into...
OK,...I think I just dug the whole...

If it has to do with an activity one or both would like/not like to do? then...I really think they should both go do what they want ..if the other isn't into the same thing..then meet in the middle when their done!..Have that regular "do what u want" dayS every week ..to do as they please!..without the bickering, wondering and three million questions!..Basically care about the other without forcing issues, or putting a(do as i say)rope around their necks!...Love, but Live and let live!..
