Having Trouble Understanding Men? Read This
Jun 23rd, 2009 by Samantha Sanderson
The trick to understanding men is, to not think too much. Women tend at times to say things indirectly, in hopes that the man will figure out what she really means. For example, she might say ” we never go out anymore”, which really mean, “I made a reservation”. A man may say” I want to have a super bowl party”, which means ” I want to have a super bowl party”.
Men like a bit of mystery. This does not mean that he wants you to be difficult. It also does not mean that he does not want to be sure that he can trust you. It does mean that you should do your best to keep things interesting.
Keep things in confidence. Understanding men means that you understand also that he likes his privacy.
He wants to feel like a man. Do not spend your time reprimanding him as if he is a child. If you do, and does not stop you, you will soon become his surrogate mother.
Men want to feel needed. They like to be asked for help. Just do not take advantage. Do not forget to do things for him sometimes too. Otherwise he will feel used.
Chivalry is not dead. Let him open doors and pull out chairs for you. This is not the time to worry about “the women’s movement”, he wants to treat you like a lady. This makes him feel like a better man.
Do not play games. Do not just agree with everything that he says. Have an opinion.
