We will all agree that women are special humans. They are of course wired differently from men and this is why they react to things differently. As much as they are beautiful, they are also full of drama. For this reason, do not engage in an argument with a woman. If you must, you have to be careful because there are things to never say to a woman during an argument.  As a man, you have to treat your woman right and refuse to say certain things to her during an argument whether she is at fault or not.

15 Things Never to Say to a Woman During an Argument

1. ‘You are Crazy…

Bro, never calls a woman crazy during an argument. Fight that temptation! Women are very sensitive and we all know how their hormones become extra active during an argument. Things will really go ugly if you call a woman or tell her she is crazy during an argument. The best thing to do is make your point if you must and listen to her’s too. This is for your sanity, man.

2. Don’t Mention Periods…

During an argument, never tell a woman that she is overacting because she is on her period. She will fight you for that. It is insensitive to say a thing like that. Periods and their cramping is something she has no control over then why use it against her during an argument? If you do this be ready for war… a big one.

3. ‘My Ex Does…’

Nobody wants to be compared to an ex, particularly not during an argument. Never tell your woman that your ex will never do this or that! She will fight and resent you with the last drop of her blood.  Statement as this isn’t just sensitive but vile and disrespectful. You made a vow to love her, why use an ex to taunt her?  She fit a break bottle for your head if you make remarks like this during an argument.  If you’re about to say, “My ex” during an argument, quickly change it to, “My head no correct!”

4. Calm Down, Relax!

I laugh in chaos. When a woman is really irked and is having an argument with you, it is safer to let her vent than tell her to relax. You tell her, “Calm down, relax,” she hears, “Shut your mouth. You make little or no sense!” Listen to her make her points and if you don’t have anything important to say, it is best you tactically appease her. 

5. ‘This is Why Your Body is…

Guy, don’t even think it. Make you dead the idea abeg. It isn’t only inhumane to body-shame your woman in an argument but devilish. No matter how vexed you’re, do not body-shame her. It might be just the spur of the moment to you but it will do a lot of damage to her self-confidence. Do not use any of her body defects to insult her during an argument. Simply keep quiet. Well, she might be mad at you for keeping quiet but it is better than opening your mouth ‘waaa’ to spew nonsense.

6. ‘Your Opinion or Suggestion Doesn’t Make Sense…’

When last did anyone break a bottle on your head? No one has ever? Well, if you say this to your woman, you deserve to have a broken skull. Never tell your woman this. There are better ways of playing down suggestions, respectfully. Do it! You won’t die.

7. Don’t Insult Her…

Learn to have a healthy argument without throwing derogatory or profane words at her. It doesn’t make sense. If you do this, you would make your relationship unhealthy.

8. ‘You’re Wasting Money…’

Most responsible women aren’t spendthrifts. It is only normal that they gift themselves things once in a while. Don’t make her feel like she is wasting money because you’re the one giving her money. This will break her and if care isn’t taken, she would resent you and look elsewhere.

9. ‘You’re Too Emotional…’

Don’t say it! Swallow that word. A woman will fight you if you are having an argument and instead of you getting her point, you tell her she is too emotional. Don’t even do it.

10. Man, She is Hot or Sexy…

You really shouldn’t do this. Don’t tell your woman another woman is hot and sexy. You might end up being single.

11. Don’t Embarrass Her…

Don’t yell at her or say anything embarrassing to her when you’re with friends or in public. If you must scold her, do it in private. Don’t say you weren’t warned.

12. ‘Are You Done Talking?’

You must have written your will before saying this to her. I don’t see the reason to say this to her unless you have a death wish. Let her finish talking or making her points. Don’t ever say this to her. It isn’t nice at all.

13. ‘Your family is…’

No, bro. don’t disrespect her family because if she does this to your family, you will have her head on a stick so why do this to her?

14. This Dress Doesn’t Fit You…’

You shouldn’t be too blunt when addressing issues like this. It could shatter her confidence. Learn to be kind. Thank you.

15. I Have a New Co-worker and I Like Her Smile…’

This is statement is the number one way of getting killed. You have a female colleague then fine. Don’t bring her issue to the ears of your girlfriend or wife unless you want trouble.
