1.That was one of your best ideas!"
What you're really saying here is that everything else we’ve said in your company is pure sh*t, and you're secretly moaning about how useless we are to anyone who will listen. Of course, if this exclamation is in response to our inventing the DomiCopter or Amazon drone drops, ignore all the above.

2.I like a girl with meat on her bones."/ "You look healthy."

Guys, if we have to tell you this, there's a lot you need to catch up on. Do not ever mention a woman's weight -- especially if you're trying to pay her a compliment. Even in long-term relationships the "Do you think I'm fat/How do I look" conversation needs to be tread with extreme caution. It is dating suicide to bring it up.

Even if your intention is sincere, what we will hear is "you'd look better if you lost a few pounds... but you'll do." Also of note: "This girl knows how to eat." Even if we look like Kate Moss and could stand to gain a few pounds, chances are a comment like this will tap into any lingering latent insecurity we've ever had.

3.You're so bubbly!"

"Bubbly" is a word often used to the likes of James Corden. Or Vanessa Feltz. What you're describing is that they're hyper, and energetic... and completely annoying. And of course, there's the implication that they're on the larger side, which is something no one wants to hear about themselves.

Even the sound of the word isn't something you want to also describe you. It's plosive, round, and the 'ubly' sound is always going to sound silly. It's one step away from "jolly" -- and if you call someone that, you can jolly well expect a slap in the face. A big, fat slap.

4.Anything that ends with "for a girl."

While sentences like, "You're really smart for a girl" and "She's pretty funny... for a girl" would seem to be archaic and obsolete to the majority of half-modernised men well-versed in feminist lore, you'd be surprised to know they are still in use. Women in scientific fields especially tend to hear a form of this sort of sexist faux compliment: "You don't see a lot of girls in engineering. Is it really hard?"

5."You look like a girl who knows how to have a good time!"

When a man tells a woman "You look like a girl who knows how to have a good time!" he doesn't usually mean cooking elaborate dinners together while spoon feeding each other mouthfuls of chocolate fondue.

Instead, something we've done has likely suggested we're eager for crazy nights of partying that end with kinky, porn movie sex. That's a lot to live up to. And no woman wants to hear she comes off as easy to get into bed.

6."You're so innocent!"

No woman wants to hear that you think of them as 'innocent'. Not only does this immediately mean you think of us as your little sister, but the subtext is also that we haven't done anything that would qualify as 'experience'. This can span from sex to travel (mostly sex) and we'll spend the next few hours casually bringing up every edgy encounter we've ever had just to prove you wrong. You'll learn more about us after that comment than you ever wanted to.

7.You're not like other girls."

We spend a lot of our lives hoping to stand out to the guy we've got a crush on, to have that 'something special' that makes him choose us instead of the hordes of other girls waiting to go out with him. So while our initial reaction may be to blush, what we quickly realise is the subtext: we're dating a guy who thinks all girls are sh*t, even if we're apparently the exception.

8."You have a great personality.

Sure, this sounds innocent. And we'll probably smile politely and say thank you. What we're really doing, though, is mentally filing you away as the guy who pulled a cheesy compliment out of his *ss. Then -- it gets worse -- for the rest of the night, we'll sort through the rest of our features (below the neck), and start questioning what’s wrong with our breasts, *ss, hair, legs... the list goes on. If you zero in on our face we’ll expect there’s something wrong with the rest of our body. If you zero in on our body we’ll think, ‘what’s wrong with my face?’ Yeah, you can’t win. Best to just keep it general.

9."You'd be prettier if you smiled more."

eally? Well that's a shame because this is how my FACE looks. And since no normal human being walks around 24 hours a day with a permanent grin, you must think I'm ugly for 90% of my day. Go away.

Being told to smile on command is like being told to do a dance in front of an audience. We're not puppets. Don't tell us to smile. For future reference, we will smile if:

a) You say something to make us laugh
b) We're thinking about something in our heads that sparks happy feelings
c) We make eye contact with someone and the exchange warrants a smile (but most of the time, a nod is sufficient).

10."You look so young!"

We spent our entire teenage lives putting on makeup and buying shirts that accentuated our miniscule breasts because we wanted to look older than our pre-pubescent selves. When we are finally, actually in our 20s, starting to appreciate whatever breast size we've got (usually larger than what we had in our teens), we do not want to be reminded that despite all the growing up we still look like we’re 14.
