Well, brother the dictionary would have to look something like this.

Statement:

"I just don't want to do this (task, project, ministry, whatever) any more."

Spiritual Definition - She really wants to do it, but she isn't sure if
it's the will of God.  She wants you to pray with her about it.

Approval Definition - She really wants to do it, but she wants the approval
of her husband, she wants you to tell her it's o.k. with you for her to do
it.

Discouraged Definition - She really wants to do it she just wants you to
encourage her to do it because she gets  a lot of her self worth from her
husband.

Tired Definition - Her body that gets tired a lot quicker than yours is
running out of energy.  She still wants to do it, but she wants you to help
her with the house work so she has the energy to do it.

Rational (Webster type definition)- She really doesn't want to do it any more.

Well, if women weren't so complex, we'd be awfully boring, don't you think?
