'What are you thinking?' is the undisputed champion of conversational cul-de-sacs.

No matter what you say you aren't thinking what they'd like you to think, and God forbid you're not dedicating every last nanosecond of neural activity to them when that question is asked. Especially if its post-coital.

Yes ladies, if you really want to make a man's shit itch and put him on edge all of the time then keep dropping that one. If you want to get rid of him without going through all the uncomfortable 'its not you, its me' stuff, just keep asking it every time you're sat alone together for more than five minutes. I'd give him a week tops.

Seriously, its not the best thing to say during those quiet moments. If you're genuinely interested in what your man is thinking (no laughing at the back) then a less direct approach is more than welcome. Otherwise you'll just get a lie 99% of the time (eg 'I'm just thinking about how wonderful this is').

Gosh, is this serious? Do women actually ask their men what is he thinking? I thought it was a joke.
Why? If I am with 'my man' and its a comfortable silence then there's no need for words is there cuz I'm lost in my own thoughts too and its nice. If its one of those uncomfortable silences then asking "what are you thinking" is surely going to spark another row? At best in that scenario I guess I've asked "NOW what's the matter??" - but then, blokes say the same in the same situation. Don't think any bloke has ever asked me what I'm thinking either, and if its not a 'partner' asking my response would be "Why do you ask?"
Very confused here, just found out 'an old joke' sounds like is true?

The what are you thinking gets my vote.

Mind you it does get worse when its followed up with a further analysis of your answer.

'What kind of happy?'

'What kind of tired?'

'What kind of nostalgia? and how does that make you feel?'

Sheesh.... happy means happy

Yeeeeeuuuwwww! I'd show her the door......

erm, you forgot your ugly and cant write, speak or type english properly

'What do you mean I have to lock out fluffykins?'

'Do you think you name will look good tatooed here?'

'Look, 50% off on rings at Argos'

'Mum's coming for tea but she has to be home before 8 because of her tag'

'i know we've only been on one date but here's the key to the house'

it's funny cos it's true
