10 cosas en las que los hombres no se fijan realmente (aunque tú creas que sí)

Que levante la mano quien se haya preocupado alguna vez de que se le peguen las pestañas.

Raise your hand if you’ve ever been worried about matching colors on your outfit! (Don’t worry; I’m sure we’re not the only ones).

Last night I was dressing for a date, and I couldn’t decide which lipstick I should put on—the only difference between the two was that one was a shade brighter than the other one!

So, I applied the first one, and I thought okay, this doesn’t look that bad at all. But, then I decided to try the other one, and the answer was the same.

Así que me quedé mirando estos dos pintalabios, esperando a que empezaran a hablarme o a que me enviaran mágicamente una señal sobre cuál debía aplicarme.

Entonces me di cuenta de lo tonta que soy.

I mean, why I am even bothering so much about it because my date won’t probably even notice that I’m wearing one (let alone if it is one shade brighter or darker)?!

La verdad es que los hombres son de otro planeta, and they simply don’t see things as we, women do.

They don’t really notice all those details about your makeup, outfit, shoes, body, and hair that you’re paying so much attention to.

Así que, para evitarte problemas innecesarios en el futuro.

Here are 10 things men don’t really notice about you even though you think they do!

1. Tus estrías

No matter how much guys are self-critical about themselves, they will never beat a woman’s obsession about her stretch marks and “flaws”.

It’s simply in our natures to count and remember every hidden spot of our imperfections and remind ourselves daily of them.

But, the truth is that he doesn’t even notice any of it!

Cuando un chico ve tu cuerpo desnudo, se queda demasiado hipnotizado por él como para pensar en sus imperfecciones.

Lo único que ve y siente es tu desnudez, tu hermosa forma femenina, el tacto y el aroma de tu piel.

As a matter of fact, guys are actually happy to see your stretch marks (especially in your most covered places) because to them, this is something that’s for their eyes only—no one else can see it or know about it. (Weird, I know).

2. Tus habilidades de maquillaje

While you might be all fussy about applying the perfect amount of mascara so that your eyelashes don’t stick together, guys will only see that you have eyelashes.

While you might be all fussy about applying the perfect lipstick, guys will only see that you’re a woman, you have lips, and you’re wearing lipstick.

They don’t really notice the color of your lipstick or anything else.

They only see that your lips are nicely ‘colored’, and that they will have to be careful about kissing you in public, so that they don’t get ‘colored’, too.

3. Su elección de comida en un restaurante

A veces las mujeres tienden a preocuparse demasiado por lo que deben comer cuando están con sus chicos.

You don’t want to order the XXL burger because you’re afraid that you’ll look funny while desperately trying to open your mouth wide enough in order to be able to consume it.

Or you worry that you’ll order demasiada comida y hacer el ridículo delante de él.

But, guys don’t really pay attention to what you’re eating and especially how much you’re eating.

They only see that you’re eating, you’re healthy, and you’re confident enough to eat that XXL burger and not give a damn about anything else.

4. Tus kilos de más

While you might continually question your guy whether you look fat in that dress, he will instantly tell you that you don’t.

If you ask him whether you’ve gained some extra pounds, he will tell you that you didn’t because HE doesn’t notice it!

The only time a guy will notice that you’ve gained some extra pounds is if you become twice as big as you were.

5. Tus zapatos nuevos (o cualquier zapato)

Let’s say that you bought new shoes, and you’re about to show them to your guy to ask his opinion.

And the only thing he says is: “Nice shoes.” And the chances are if you didn’t show him, he will never even notice them! And do you know why?

Because they don’t pay that much attention to shoes (as long as you’re not barefoot), and guys’ dictionaries doesn’t have that much space for words about shoes.

They only know about the existence of SHOES—heels, boots, slippers, and that’s about it.

6. Sus arrugas

While you keep counting those wrinkles on your forehead or around your eyes and you even start seriously thinking about getting some Botox, your guy won’t notice any of it if you don’t tell him.

Lo único que ven los chicos es tu sonrisa ¡y qué guapa eres!

7. Las raíces sin teñir y crecidas de tu cabello.

En un momento en el que es tendencia tener las raíces crecidas, la verdadera pregunta es si los chicos deberían fijarse en ellas.

Of course, they are not. (And no, they don’t notice them either way.)

Lo único en lo que se fijan de tu pelo es si está lavado, si huele bien y si es largo o corto.

Esos detalles, como raíces crecidas, reflejos y otras tonterías, simplemente no son visibles a sus ojos.

8. Sus cejas

Para toda mujer, sus cejas son una de las cosas más importantes cuando se trata de la belleza de su rostro.

Y es que las cejas tienen el poder de acentuar y dar forma a tu rostro de la manera más presentable.

And while you might be spending hours trying to get the perfect shape, guys don’t really notice your efforts unless your eyebrows look like the Nike logo.

9. Sus habilidades para combinar colores

Mientras tú te preocupas por combinar tus calcetines con el color de tus bragas, los chicos sólo se preocupan de que sigas teniendo bragas (ya me entiendes).

You could match deep pink with beige and some green, and guys won’t notice it.

They only see that you’re wearing clothes, and the only time they’ll notice your matching colors is if you go fluorescent from head to toe.

10. That you’re not wearing makeup

You might go all crazy when you’re not usar maquillaje, thinking that all of your imperfections will come to light, but guys won’t even notice that you’re not wearing it.

Incluso sin sombra de ojos, tus ojos siguen pareciéndoles brillantes, tus labios les siguen pareciendo atractivos y siguen viendo a la misma mujer con el mismo bello rostro.

Y cuando te maquillas, simplemente son incapaces de notar ninguna diferencia significativa, a menos que se trate de algo realmente excéntrico.
