And when it comes to relationships, we&#8217;re probably the worst for it! Here are just a few things not to say in a relationship&#8230;<\/p>\n<h2>Calm Down<\/h2>\n<p>These words are fairly unforgivable in any conversation. Guaranteed to have you on the couch for the night, there is never a good enough reason to spout out these words.<\/p>\n<h2>You would look so much better if\u2026..<\/h2>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re talking about wearing less make-up, a new hairstyle or some <a title=\"fitness tips\" href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingdates.ie\/blog\/fitness-tips-can-desk\/\">fitness tips<\/a>, this opinion is probably best kept to yourself. And even if your spouse does take it well, chances are, they\u2019ll be secretly crushed.<\/p>\n<h2>My ex\u2026<\/h2>\n<p>Not a great way to begin a sentence. Your spouse more than likely doesn\u2019t know or want to know about your ex. Ever. In fact, mentioning them as little as possible is definitely a good thing. And NO comparing! Which brings us to\u2026<\/p>\n<h2>You\u2019re so like your mom\/dad<\/h2>\n<p>You can love your parents very much but being told how much you\u2019re like them is not the most comforting thought. The only thing worse is saying how you\u2019re like one of their parents. Creepy.<\/p>\n<h2>I don\u2019t care!<\/h2>\n<p>Cutting off your spouse with this phrase mid sentence is nearly as bad as \u201ccalm down\u201d. It implies that their opinions and thoughts mean nothing to you and are wasting your time. Ouch.<\/p>\n<h2>You wouldn\u2019t get it<\/h2>\n<p>Shrugging someone off and implying they don\u2019t have the intellectual or emotional capacity to understand your situation\u2026. Nice one! Even if it\u2019s as light-hearted as your new football team in Fifa (and even if they \u201cdon\u2019t care\u201d) explaining that you don\u2019t want to bother explaining isn\u2019t just mean, it\u2019s bad manners!<\/p>\n<p><em>Are you guilty of a few of these (we know we are!)?
