Go Beyond “Whatever”

Yesterday on The XY Code I tried to explain to the ladies what it means when a man says “whatever”.

Man making a "whatever" gesture.

What I want you to know is most women are annoyed by that non-answer. If annoying her is your goal, then go for it. Otherwise, you can do better.

If you really don’t care, then say that. If you care but just don’t feel like risking an argument or getting into a long discussion, then say “It doesn’t matter enough to me to discuss it.” If you say whatever when you realise you’re wrong, please do her the kindness of manning up about being wrong.

Your wife wants to know you. She wants to know every little detail about how you think and feel and saying “whatever” denies her that. So even when you really don’t care, give her a real answer because you love her.

  1. You may not know how I feel,
    nor touch my inner weather,
    for I don’t believe this deal
    will keep our hearts together.
    You have yearnings, you have dreams,
    you have deep and tender cares,
    and if I talk it only seems
    that I’ve Miller, and the Bears,
    but that is not full truth at all,
    I’m sensitive and deep,
    but if you look beyond the wall
    the treasure you will reap
    is that ‘gainst derision I do hide
    the use of ‘Jackass’ as my guide.

    I usually tell her what i think. Then she asks again because it was not the answer she Wanted. Eventually i i just say whatever because she obviously doesn’t care what i think. Like today she asked if she should bring our dog with to her company picnic. I said no, then she asked why i told her it was going to be to warm for him, and he will annoy her. So she asked twice more and i finally said do wat you want whatever.
