Respect isn’t just about listening to a woman when she talks—even if she’s giving you a two-season recap of a TV show. It’s also about not asking questions like, “Did you buy another new dress?”

A real man respects both words and silence. If she’s deep in thought, don’t ask, “What are you thinking about?” The answer will either be “nothing” or “just remembering how you forgot our anniversary last time.”

So, friends, respect is your main trump card. Use it wisely, and let this day be a good reason to remind your woman that she is the best!
