Things Girls Say and Do That Guys Don’t Understand

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at App State chapter.

1. *Puts on a fashion show* “What should I wear?”

2. *Takes a million Snapchats until she finally captures a decent one* …Right after she sends it: “OMG I shouldn’t have sent that.”

3. “Do you think he’ll text/Snapchat me back?” *Stresses about it seconds after it was delivered until she finally gets a response*

4. It’s the end of the world if he read her text or opened her Snapchat and didn’t respond. She automatically assumes the worst.

5. “Every girl needs a gay best friend.”

6. “Does this make me look fat?”

7. “I’m fine.” (Meaning the complete opposite)
