Secrets every woman keeps from her man (part 2)

16. She wants you to talk a little dirty



17. At the beginning of your relationship, she saves all of your voice mails and listens to them (and make her friends listen, too), repeatedly

18. She might wear granny underwear and purposely not shave her legs because she likes you

As crazy as it sounds, the more she likes you, the less likely she is to sleep with you on an early date, because she doesn’t want to sabotage having a "proper" relationship with you.

So she just might purposely hunt out the ugliest underwear in her drawer and not shave her legs—all to prevent herself from getting naked with you too soon.

Sometimes she might get a little tipsy or carried away, and this plan will backfire. 

19. She split the cost of her fashion purchases over two or more credit cards

 So you don't notice the gargantuan deficit.

20. She's constantly testing you
 

       

She observes, analyses, and judges every action, word, gesture, email, and facial expression.

When she asks you if you want to have a threesome, she doesn’t mean it. If you want her to speak to you again, let alone sleep with you after this conversation, the answer should always be, “Why would I want to sleep with another woman when I have you?”

21. She checks out your butt every time you leave the room

22. She needs constant indications that you want her around

That's why it’s better, for example, to say, “I want you to come away with me for the weekend. Could you come with me?” than to ask, “What are you up to this weekend?”

23. She loves it when you get a little jealous

So if you ever see her flirting in front of you with the waiter, the bus driver, or another guy at a party, know she's actually flirting with you—through him. 

24. Even though she may complain that she doesn’t see you enough (or that you work too hard), she finds nothing sexier than watching you put on a suit in the morning and rush off to work

25. She starts fights with you because she's feeling ignored

  

She's trying to force emotion out of you. Don’t retreat into your cave; just give her what she wants: some attention. And never tell her to “calm down,” unless you want to guarantee that she absolutely won’t.

26. Even if she insists on paying or splitting the bill on your first date, she’ll think you're cheap if you let her

27. She may find your best friend repulsive, but she's fantasized about sleeping with him  

Not because she wants him, but because she wants a piece of a guy who is so close to you.

 

28. If she's going to break up with you, all of her friends know way before you do

 

She's been talking about it for two weeks

 

29. When you and her do break up, she'll put all photographs of you and mementos of your relationship in a shoe box and store it in her closet

Just in case she gets nostalgic. Just in case you come back

30. She wants you to take control in bed

Yes, she has a successful career, she's financially independent, she lives on her own, and she doesn’t need a man to make her happy (in theory). She still wants you to pick her up, carry her to the bedroom, and take without asking.
