I thought this was kind of funny because while I was reading it, I was thinking - why does this need translation? She's being completely obvious! But I guess maybe that's the point.

The Communication Barrier
Many men wonder if a woman really means what she says when she says it. As long as you two are speaking the same language, she should be able to get her point across but thatīs not always the case. So gentlemen, the next time you hear these lines, you might want to interpret them with a bit of caution.
Phrase #1
What She Says: I donīt mind if you hang out with your ex.
What She Means: I trust you, but definitely not her. If she lays a finger on you, Iīll rip her heart out with my bare hands and make her eat it.
What You Should Do: Proceed with caution, but have fun!
Phrase #2
What She Says: Sure, Iīd love to watch the sports game with you.
What She Means: The only reason Iīm putting myself through such torture is to spend time with you.
What You Should Do: Gentlemen, keep in mind that assuming your lady doesn't like sports, watching a few hours of a sporting event is comparable to a woman making you wait three hours in a hair salon. If your lady does this then good work she must really care about you.
Phrase #3
What She Says: Iīm fine.
What She Means: Things are not fine and Iīm mad at you. (The word ?fineī actually stands for: freaked out, irritated, nervous and emotional).
What You Should Do: Make a mental note that in a womanīs vocabulary the word ?fineī often has the same meaning as ?terribleī.
Phrase #4
What She Says: Fine, ditch our plans and go out with your boys.
What She Means: The combination of ?fineī (see above) and sarcasm is a sure sign that you are in trouble.
What You Should Do: You shouldnīt expect sex for a while. This would certainly be a good time to consider buying her a present.
Phrase #5
What She Says: Iīm just having a bad day.
What She Means: Itīs not your fault or maybe it is but the point is that your lady may be experiencing some PMS.
What You Should Do: Give her space or you may regret it and suffer the consequences.
Phrase #6
What She Says: Yes, I think sheīs pretty.
What She Means: Tell me Iīm more beautiful and that she is an airbrushed, high maintenance, ugly troll behind a wall of makeup with breast implants.
What You Should Do: Do what she says! Tell her sheīs beautiful.
Phrase #7
What She Says: What are you doing tonight?
What She Means: What are you doing with me tonight? A lot of the time when a woman asks this question her intention is really to make plans for the evening. Women really donīt care to hear that you are reorganizing your coin collection and then watching a documentary on mold.
What You Should Do: You could respond with, ?I donīt know, did you have something in mind??
Phrase #8
What She Says: That shirt is really nice you should wear it more often.
What She Means: I really like the shirt and not much of the other clothing you own. So please wear it as often as possible, preferably washed in between wears.
What You Should Do: Wash it and wear it again before too long.
Bonus: What you should definitely not do
* Donīt break your plans because you have a hangover. If you canīt go for this reason at least have the decency to lie and say you are sick.
* Donīt compare your sex life to a pornographic film
* Never talk about the amount of weight you can bench press because women couldnīt really care less. Believe it or not, if a woman isnīt shallow, she will not care whether or not you can lift her.
