7 phrases we women should learn to say more often
We women are good at a lot of things. We are good at doing two thousand actions at the same time (preparing lunch for the next day while we are on the phone with our mother because "a disaster has happened this photo does not stop" and instead it is a gif and in the meantime we are thinking about the strategy to propose to the boss about that project he told us about), we are good at driving (even if 98% of men deny it) and we are good at smiling when the universe tells us to do the opposite.
We women are good at doing a lot of things but too often there are words that die in the throat, that get stuck between our teeth: telling our friends how important they are to us, for example, is one of those things that should be said. more often.
1. "To tell the truth it's all thanks to him"
One of the most detestable things in the world is when someone takes credit for something they didn't do. You took time, patience and sleepless nights and you suddenly find yourself in the background because the person directly concerned does not say a word. First get angry and then remember that it could happen to you too: if we all learned to accept only the acknowledgments that we compete the situation would be much more relaxed.

2. "No"

The NOs of women are as good as the NOs of men: don't be afraid to take a stand even when you're afraid of getting a reaction that you already know you won't like.
Say no to someone who writes you a timetable and then picks you up with an "hour late making excuses like"I went out but then they told me that Milan scored and then I went back upstairs to watch the second half", say no to the boss if he is making absolutely absurd requests and say no to whoever is" but only when he needs it.
Be your priority, the rest will come by itself.
3. "There was no need for you to do it"
There is this false myth that we women need. We do not know what, but we often find ourselves having to thank for favors we have never asked for: we are big, vaccinated and most of the time, we are perfectly autonomous.
Men who are reading us (and girls with very big hearts) this does not apply to shopping bags and luggage stuck in hat boxes. Feel free to help us even if at first "you need" we pretend to be invincible: we do it just give us an attitude.
4. "I'm sorry"

There is a book that made history, it's called "Love Story" and is the father of all those Young Adult novels in which he loves her, she loves him, one of the two is sick, the suffering is too much, someone dies , the other is desperate and you cry.
It is a story written by Erich Segal in 1970 and whose pivotal proposition is "Love means never having to say -I'm sorry-". So far everything is fine but in love you are wrong. He is also mistaken in friendship, in family, in the gym, in the queue at the supermarket, in the hidrobike course ...
Feel sorry and apologize: this is the only way to grow up.
5. "Can I help you in any way?"
In addition to the girls with a huge heart mentioned above, we talk about both work and volunteer work and Sundays for lunch at mom and dad's house. We have two hands (on which it even happens to put the nail polish in a decent way): let's not keep them all to ourselves!
6. "I'm really happy for you"

It is easier to find a parking space on market days than to meet girls who are not afraid to compliment each other.
A compliment doesn't make you uglier, and it certainly doesn't make you any less good. Whether it's physical appearance or accomplishments, past auditions, jobs, academic awards, don't let the gray around you turn you off.
Smile and enlighten: tomorrow, most likely, the others will enlighten you.
7. "It's not funny"
There is a phrase that mothers used to tell us when we were little, before threatening us with slippers, rolling pins and wooden spoons: "the game is good when it doesn't last long".
You can make fun of me once, maybe maybe I'll let you do it a second time, if I really don't want to answer you badly but the third ... Know that there won't be a third time.
Let us always remember: those who do not speak, those who accept everything and those who stand still, get nowhere and do not help others to get anywhere.
You have a voice, don't be afraid to use it!
