As much as everyone likes to complain that girls never say what they’re thinking, sometimes it’s even more infuriating when you’re dealing with a guy who barely says anything at all.

“I don’t care where we go for dinner.”

“Let’s leave the lights on tonight.”
What it means: “Boobs. I want to see them.”
“Weren’t you going out with the girls tonight?”
What it means: “I just want to watch TV with my hand down my pants, in peace.”
