You will argue with your boyfriend sooner or later,
I'm sorry to tell you. I'm not going to pretend that arguments are never going to happen. They will, but there's no sense saying something stupid while you're fighting about chores or what to have for dinner.
Arguing with Boyfriend Blunder #1 - You Tell Him He Knocked You Up
A few women will tell a guy that they're pregnant when things begin to take a turn for the worse, hoping that he'll stay with her.. If you're thinking of playing the "pregnancy card," reconsider. Women might be more prone to working things out if there's a new baby on the way, but if you and your boyfriend have been arguing a lot, this probably won't have the desired effect.
On one hand, he's going to think that you're trapping him.. If you make his blood boil, he's not going to be excited at the thought of having to deal with a baby along with everything else.
On the flip side, if it's true that you're pregnant, your boyfriend will be scared--really scared. He may even try to get you to get an abortion. I know that all the men you see on TV sitcoms aren't exactly the brightest lightbulbs in the box, but the truth is that most men aren't stupid. They know that a child isn't going to solve the problems that are straining your relationship.
If you just fabricated the whole story, that's not good either. He'll find out eventually. Is it really going to make things better if he thinks you're liar and manipulator in addition to all the other problems going on?
Arguing with Boyfriend Blunder #2 - Telling Him You Had an Affair
Maybe you're pissed and you want to tell him about that time you and his best friend got wasted and one thing led to another... I'm sure we've all been there once. But how is this going to accomplish anything? If you tell this to a guy, he'll feel really dumb and stupid for ever trusting a woman like you that sleeps around.
You heard me. Even though you're just attempting to make him feel like a total chump, you're just telling him that you have no morals and you want to sleep around. Now, I'm going out on a limb here and I'm assuming that this isn't exactly the kind of history you're wanting for yourself.
Arguing with Boyfriend Blunder #3 - Telling Him His Unit is 2 Sizes Too Small
This is definitely something you really don't want to point out. Chances are good that you'll strike him where it hurts. But you're not going to be doing any favors for yourself either.
This will only make you look very shallow like all that you care about is size. This will only make you come off as the female equal to one of those guys that drools over every pair of long legs that walks by. This isn't the kind of thing a respectable lady would do.
These 3 blunders are things that women seem to do fairly frequently even though they only end up backfiring on them. Trust me, I know how hard it can be in the heat of the moment to stay cool, but you need to make sure that you act like a classy and refined woman. It may be easier to try to humiliate your boyfriend, but it's critical not to knock yourself down at the same time.
Plus, the more dumb things you say, the more damage you're going to need to repair to save your relationship. I know it's hard to do so in the heat of the moment, but you have to keep a long-term view. Ask yourself "is this something I'm going to regret saying later?" before you let it out.
