9. “All men are stupid.”
“That’s why you don’t have a boyfriend!” When you don’t have anything better to say, don’t say it. Men are disgusted by your overbearing attitude and conclude that you are a lost cause. After you realize you have said too much, quickly add, “But that’s why I can’t leave them alone.” It may not be perfect, but some men will reconsider you for having a maternal instinct.
