8 Things You Should Never Say to Your Partner

Let us face it: Many men have fragile egos and many women have acidic tongues. It is surely not one of the best combinations to have in a relationship. Well, that is why both of you should make constant efforts to not end up hurting each other. So, here is something for all you sweet yet sharp wives out there, who love their husbands dearly but often, lose control on their tongue. Take a look at 8 things which you must never tell your partner..

"I told you so!"

Your husband may have done something really foolish by not listening to your advice. But, that does not mean you must nag him all day. Nagging him will only create rifts between you two, so avoid doing so. “I told you so” is a weapon that makes your husband hang his head in shame. So, use it wisely, ladies!

"You are just like your father/mother"

With this statement not only are you hurting him, but also insulting your in-laws. You may not see eye-to-eye with your in-laws, but that does not mean you belittle him or them. Family is a very sensitive subject for any person. You would certainly not like it if he drags your parent's names into his arguements. So remember, never bring family members into your private fights.

"Fine!"

A single word which hits your husband like a nuclear weapon is “fine”. It is a negative ‘yes’ which shows your extreme displeasure at something. It indicates that you are boiling with anger and are not letting out the steam. So, avoid using this word and talk things with him. Husbands prefer their wives shouting and letting out their anger rather than letting them simmer with rage.

"My mom warned me that you would turn out like this"

These words not just insult your husband but can hurt his self-esteem too. So, never bring in your family’s opinions about your husband into an argument.

"You always do this!"

This is a heartbreaking sentence which will hurt your husband a lot. If your husband’s actions bother you and get you perturbed, then be frank and ask him not to do it again. When you can clear differences peacefully, there is no point in yelling, right?

"Can you do anything right?"

Your husband may be having a bad day in office or may be just down in the dumps. So, this statement will really make him feel terrible and worthless. If you are unhappy with a repair job that your spouse has just performed, then just keep mum. When he is not around, call the repairman and get the work done.

"Do we really have to invite him over?"

You may absolutely loathe your husband’s friends, but you must learn not to make your disapproval so apparent. Would you give up your girlfriends for your partner? You would not, right? So, do not expect him to give up on his college buddies either. One thing you can do if you cannot absolutely stand your husband’s friends is that encourage them for a boy’s night out. You can always catch up on a movie or indulge in some shopping.

"You bought me that?"

Many a times, when husbands decide to go out shopping for their wives, they end up purchasing absolutely hideous and unnecessary things. But, instead of complaining, learn to look at the brighter side of things. Your husband is definitely a lot better than millions of others who do not even bother to surprise their wives. So, paste a smile on your face, give your husband a hug and always remember, it is the thought that counts.
