Relationships can be delicate, and the things we say can either bring us closer or drive us apart. In this article, we'll explore five things you should never ask your man to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

Published on November 24, 2019, this advice is still relevant today.

Firstly, talking about your ex can be a major turn-off for your partner. It may give the impression that you're still not over them, and it can lead to comparisons between your ex and your current partner.

Secondly, asking about a second date after the first can be a sign of desperation. If your partner hasn't hinted at a second date, it's best to wait and see what happens instead of asking them directly.

Thirdly, asking about your partner's past relationships can be a sensitive topic. It's best to avoid asking about the number of women they've been with in the past to avoid triggering unwanted memories and insecurities.

Fourthly, making negative comments about your partner's family can be a major red flag. If you have issues with any of their family members, it's best to resolve them privately rather than bad-mouthing them.

Lastly, asking if you're 'fat' can be a tricky question. Men may not know how to answer it, and it can lead to fights and hurt feelings. It's best to avoid asking this question altogether.
