"Honey, that outfit just doesn't flatter your figure the way it should." This way, you are making an intelligent response. Blame the clothes, not her figure. Then, the next time your in the hardware store with her, pick up a hammer, hold it close to your waist and ask her, "Honey, does this hammer make me look fat?" Assuming, she has a sense of humor. Good Luck! Here’s the correct answer to, “Does this make me look fat?”

Some fights/arguments between significant others often are meaningless.. The strength of the relationship will be reflected by how it was handled. Hopefully you were joking when you mentioned about going back in to ask for her number... I don't wearing your drink is going to help you any.

"You aren’t fat and you look good in the dress” should have been replaced by something slightly more truthful, but gentle, and hinting at the possibility of improving oneself. "It looks great, but it would look even better if we worked off a little of this (touches hips) at the gym." An alternative would be (and this is if the dress truly makes the girlfriend look fat) "I don't think this style suits you" (bonus points for the fashion advice!)

Guys are visual. If we see a hottie, our eyes are DRAWN to that beauty, even if we're standing next to someone equally as gorgeous. Doesn't mean we don't respect you or don't appreciate YOUR beauty. The only mistake this guy made was to try and appease the beast. When she said "Is she cute?", his answer should have been "Hell yeah, she's gorgeous - why else would I have looked?" Don't fall for those silly tests from women. Be a man. Amy, grow up. Guys are visual.

And if it's really so difficult for you to understand why someone you're supposed to be in a relationship with gets upset when you ogle other women and then deny it when you get busted, then maybe, just maybe you should be single. Fuckwad. Hey asshat, maybe, just maybe, you should try being HONEST with your girlfriend instead of lying to her as the default.

Most women, including my girlfriend, have self-esteem issues (AKA anger management issues), which surfaces most often when they realize they aren't the prettiest women on the planet. Yes that is correct, we are attracted to other women, and we will continue to appreciate the finer things in life. Women, with that being said, get used to it. When you sit and drool over US Weekly or Cosmo at McDreamy or Clooney, we don't scowl and throw a tantrum. Do we? read more carefully folks…
