UNDERSTANDING MEN


10 THINGS MEN SAY AND WHAT DO THEY REALLY MEAN?



Are guys really just what they say? Or is there another story behind those words? Well, the truth is, behind their apparently open exterior, men have been secretly saying things that doesn't really seem to be what you assume to be. IT ENTIRELY DIFFERENT, LADIES! Thumbs up! here are 10 things men say and what they really mean.

What men say: "She's just a friend"
Now, all of us have the freedom to be friends with whomever they like, even if it does mean that your man gets to be friends with that ex-supermodel, who has legs that goes on forever. However, if you happen to see your guy getting a little too friendly and you confront him about it, what does he say? If he says you're acting crazy and that Miss Gorgeous is just a friend, he may me telling the truth.But more often than not, men found their female friends more attractive. So if he flirts with his girl "friends" , be aware.

What men say: 'I just want you to be happy.'
if your guy says that he just wants you to be happy during a fight, chances are he is actually not entirely sure what you are talking about or what you want. This general , disguised phrase has been cleverly put together because even though he hasn't a clue of what you have been discussing, it sounds as if he is in complete agreement.

What men say: 'I've got a really early meeting.'
Ooohh! if your guy whips out this line after you've just had a grown-up sleepover at his house, you know that he won't be ringing you up for another date any time soon. When a guys says he's got a a really early meeting the next moring, what he mean is that he wants you to stop spooning him so that he can stretch out and reclaim his bed. 

What man say: 'What tone of voice?'
This is surely the most frustrating things men can say, isn't it? You know when the said 'fine' what they actually meant was 'For goodness sake, what else can i do for you? I'm not your slave'. However, when you ask them what they mean by that tone of voice, they'll quickly act innocent. Proving otherwise is a near impossible task its like trying to catch smoke with your bare hands.

What men say: 'Are you going to eat all of that?'
We may think that they are asking us to shed some weight,but in actual fact, when your guy asks if you're going to eat the rest of your food, he is just hungry, or incredibly jealous about what you have ordered.

What men say:'I love her, she's so funny.'
You may want your new guy and your friends to get along, you never pictured in your mind that they'd get on this well. Yet, if your guy says he loves your friend, and that he thinks that she's the funniest person he's ever met, don't worry, he doesn't want to run away with her, he just thinks she's a laugh. That is it.

What men say: 'I need some space.'
Men are like rubber bands. When men get too intimate they will like to spring back and have a little "man-time". However, if it has come to a point when your guy needs to tell you he needs some space, things have gotten bad and he's one-step from breaking up with you.

When men say: 'My ex was hysterical.'
when you hear that his ex was a little berserk you may wan to pop a champagne. But, be cautious. when your man says this about his previous girlfriend it may be a sign that he hurt and upset her so much that she ended up, quite rightly, showing him how furious she was by tipping the contents of his closet out of the window onto the streets.

What men say: 'It was a joke.'
Joking may be a way of your guy telling you that he hates something but knows you are sensitive about it.

What men say: 'I don't want a relationship right now.'
When men fall in love, they are consumed. their sport and their bachelor lifestyle are all quickly pushed aside and replaced by this new girl. Thus, if a guy says to you he doesn't wast a relationship right now, he's lying. The truth is that he just isn't that into you. If he liked you enough he'd change his whole world to make sure you were a part of it.

GOING NUTS OVER NUTS


A NUT FANATIC
THE STAR NUT - WALNUT



 More Singaporeans now have gotten more health concious. A greater number of people are looking into nuts, which are packed full of nutrients.

Studies shown that walnuts contains twice as much antioxidants as that in a handful of other nuts such as pecans and almonds. 

Antioxidants help to protect cells from damage by harmful substances which could cause cancer or heart disease. Walnuts are also one of the few plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids. This nutrient, more commonly found in fatty fishes such as tuna and salmon, reduces inflammation and helps fight chronic disease .

Other plant sources of omega-3 includes flax and chia seeds. Omega-3 is also known as "brain food" as it is thought to boost memory and brain health. Come to think of it, doesn't it look like a brain too?!

Eating 12 walnuts a day could lower total and bad cholesterol levels without affecting that good cholesterol. "Good" cholesterol, prevents "bad" cholesterol from being deposited on artery walls. This helps to reduce the risk of heat disease.

Walnuts are high in polyunsaturated fat and low in saturated fat. Polyunsaturated fat improves the effect of 'good' cholesterol. Saturated fat and trans fat on the other hand, raise bad cholesterol levels, the unhealthiest form of fat.

Taken as part of a low-fat, plant-based diet, walnuts can help prevent arteries from hardening. But, be aware that eating too much may not do your body good as they are high in calories. thus, moderation is key. Don't just eat walnuts only, have a variety of nuts to reap the most benefits. ( Generally nuts are high in unsaturated fat and they are also a good source of protein and fibre. It is best eaten raw and unsalted )

Try changing your snacks from packets of chips or a chocolate bar to a packet of nuts instead. It is as tasty, plus, containing a lot more nutrients compared to chips or chocolate.

Don't fancy walnuts? Try others kinds of nuts such as Brazil nuts, Almonds, Cashews, Pistachios. Time to get ''nut-cited' !
