" We will NEVER forget get a compliment . I used the same conditioner until it went out of production because someone once told me my hair’s-breadth feel voiced and smell skillful . "

I always love getting insight into how a guy’s mind works. So when I come across conversations, like in thisReddit threadwhere people are talking about “guy secrets” girls don’t know about, I’m very intrigued! Here are some of the rather interesting answers I came across on this topic.

1.“We will NEVER forget getting a compliment. I used the same conditioner until it went out of production because someone told me my hair felt soft and smelled nice.”

7.“We don’t want to tell you certain things are worrying us because we do not want you to worry too. Now there are just two people worrying, whereas before, one was worrying, and the other was happy, which is a reminder to us not to worry so much.”

11.“I don’t care how bad my day is, I don’t care how much of the ‘big and quiet’ type I come across as, I don’t care who is around, the second a cute animal comes within eyesight it’s getting the baby voice.”

12.“We take a step to the side to unstick our balls.”

13.“I like being childish and if I trust you enough I will be childish around you. I always forget things but I really try to remember them. We have days where we want to be left alone with peace and quiet.”

14.“If it looks like I’m ignoring you, I’m probably just so deep in thought that I forgot I actually exist.”

— uracil / Emiliootjee

15.“It’s possible to just sit and think of literally nothing. Don’t ask us, ‘What are you thinking?’ more than once.”

16.“Took me years to learn when my wife is telling me her problems, it’s not always because she wants me to fix them. She literally just wants me to listen and acknowledge that her problems exist. Took her years to learn that when she tells me her problems, I am instinctively working out a resolution. I listen, I acknowledge and then I ask if there’s anything I can do. If not, I stay out of it.”

17.“When you ask us a question, oftentimes we’ll quickly respond with ‘huh?’. It’s not that we didn’t hear you, cause we did. We’re just buffering to give you an adequate answer.”

18.“When girls come over to a guy’s place. The guy is usually cleaning up his place like the Tasmanian Devil 1–2 hours before she comes over.”

19.“That a lot of us are constantly debating internally whether or not to go talk to you — a girl — and how to go about doing so. Yes, I want to go say hi and be confident, but also I don’t wanna be seen as a creep. There are a lot of guys who are examples of toxic masculinity and/or creepiness and I don’t wanna be one of them. To project enough confidence without being a jerk and yet to project enough gentleness/humility without being a wimpy simp — it’s a balancing act.”

20.“Whatever imperfections you have that you’re insecure about, we either don’t notice, don’t care if we notice, or we find it really attractive about you.”
