German women have been given a list of questions they should never ask their fellas - because men do not understand their logic.

The 10 questions include "would you still love me if I was fatter and uglier?", "why do you love me?", and "what are you thinking?".

Published by Langenscheidt, a company best known for its respected foreign language dictionaries, the handbook also offers a useful translation guide to what men really mean when they speak.

Well the question "what are you thinking" refers to all women all over the world...

My bird asked me that once.. Never asked again...

It explains that what men say is not necessarily what they really mean.

Is it only men? blink.gif

I can picture it now:

Her: Hey sweety, what are you thinking?
You: I'm thinking,...I'm thinking that I love you and I'd like to have you as a wife. Will you marry me?
Her: Fucking hell, I'm not asking that one again.

You should never ever tell the truth in response to that question, it's a no win situation.

Sometimes if I'm particularly enjoying a quiet, together moment and thinking how great everything is I like to ask my partner what he's thinking about.
9 times out of 10 he answers "Cars.".

Bless.
At least he's honest.

I've asked that question many times but usually the conversation goes something like this:

Him: (excitedly) I just spent 10,000€ on a new bedroom set made out of real driftwood designed by some Italian dude!!
Me: (angrily) What (the fuck) are you thinking (about)?!!!
