Hey guys! I thought I'd do this for you since I know there are girls out there who don't understand guys and desperately want/need to. This is for you (or anyone who wants to understand guys). The explanation of guys is in the Notes and Credits.
Straight from @bathoamewdaalt: AHEM…for starters, men are simple creatures, depending on what their reactions to stuff is, you should know how to react as well. For example: if we make a mustache out of milk, creamer, etc…do NOT call it childish, most dudes like being goofy at times (or it could just be me) and want to break out of their shell, if you say a rude comment, they may never do it again, which hurts the male species "feelzies". Another thing to worry about is the “fake smile and laugh”. The fake smile and laugh tactic is when a dude is hurt, needs someone, but cant really describe what they are feeling. In this case, try to make them feel better by simply asking “what’s wrong?” If he says he’s fine, he’s either not, or he actually is and im paranoid, ANYWAY. Try to persuade them into saying, but if their voice rises a little bit, try to step back, or try to calm him down. Guys say “everything is fine” because they think that their girl wont understand them. Or they think they’ll be made fun of for having feelings because everyone makes the stereotype of “guys can suck it up!”, and that is one of the main reasons on why they dont open up… For calming down a guy, try saying something like: “hey, is something on your mind? You seem off and i am a bit worried, if there is anything you are going through, please tell me so i can try to help.” (That is, if they want to). And the example you gave me was great…but i think you should stay with them even though they are sad, because that is the best thing you can probably do for a man who is upset, but wont speak about it. And if they tell you to leave them alone, there is a 50/50 chance of one of these two options: #1, they actually want to be left alone, if this is the case, back down and tell them something like: “if you want to talk to someone, just know i am always here”. Or something within those lines. And : they say they want to be left alone, but really dont. It is hard to see this one because they WILL sound real about wanting you to leave them alone. The best thing to do is to say something like: “i will always be here if you need someone to talk to, if you cant express your feelings it’s okay, because I’ll still be here in case you need me”. Though there are better ways of saying this, so DONT use this as an accurate example. If he says that it’s personal, there’s a 75-25 percent chance for one of two things. 75% of the time, it IS personal, and they do NOT want to talk about it with you, and it is fine, just let it go and say something within the lines of: “alright, just let me know if you want to talk, i am always here for you”. What I added: Guys mean what they say. Like, if you ask if they want to do something and then they say "no I'm tired", that doesn't mean they are sick of you, that doesn't mean they want to break up with you, that doesn't mean they don't love you anymore, it just means that they probably had a long day or got a really bad sleep and want to fall asleep on the couch and wake up with messy hair. If they don't like you, they will find a way to tell you. Okay guys that's all I've got for you! Love you all bai <3
