8. “I like the way my mom cooks it.”
“She got angry at me and said I had a ‘mother complex!’” If guys make a comment comparing their girlfriend to their mother, more often than not they’re going to be met with hostility. Instead of saying “…like my mom,” try saying something like, “I like it when the seasoning is a bit stronger.” This way your comment will be accepted as a personal preference rather than a criticism or comparison.
