"You can love women or you can understand women, but never both". What are your thoughts on this statement?

Been going down a weird YouTube rabbit hole lately

I guess my husband does the impossible. 🤷‍♀️

@BerryTheBoo So you're never mad at each other?

Surely you can only make the effort to understand a woman if you love her?

@SW-User Well it's not my idea. I'm just a messenger

Lol we aren't that complicated. We just want chocolate. You can understand us and love us at the same time.

Actually I don't get this statement. To attempt to understand somebody of any gender is a loving act itself so you can do both in conclusion haha

This doesn't really make sense to me. It seems to me that if you really love someone, you'll try your best to understand them. And I think that the better you understand someone, the more deeply you can love them.

If you only love someone (or think you love someone) when you don't really understand them, then you don't really love them, you just love an idealized image of them that your mind has created. So I would have to say that I strongly disagree with this statement.
@TeresaRudolph71 And that is why you should bash him, Teresa!

I don't think it makes any sense. If you don't try to understand someone, you're not going to be much of a partner to them. Besides, women aren't really that mysterious. It's just that men haven't been listening.

@jomsim lol the statement actually mean, if you truly understand women, your heart will grow cold.

@eMortal Eek! I didn't even understand the statement then.
For any human being, love and understanding are ongoing processes, they are not static. The ones who succeed are the ones whose actions and thoughts continually reinforce this.

Every woman is different, some can be easy to understand and some are hard to get but I dont think having both are impossible it just depends on the woman

I love to understand Woman 😜its all based on communication and honesty.

@Karmalives Yep, being a good listener is usually what women want. They experience life through many colors of the rainbow and just need someone to express their feelings to. That's all there is to it.. now there are times when they can go overboard, but that's why at the end of it all, there's compromise through endurance and the bond is gonna get even better.

@Stefan136 well said my friend 😎

In the regular and natural case, the two are usually connected, it's the definition of love that most people get mixed up with. A lot of people struggle with what the definition of love is. Most people believe they should love whatever they can find in a person that they expect to get, something like satisfying a need. Some people want to possess women as trophy wives and mix that with love.

Hmm interesting. I am pretty straightforward and make things simple with communication. Easy to understand in most respects. I believe one can have both however. (Then again....sigh)

I’m nothing but logic and common sense. So love them for me.
Impossible says I m possible.

@sspec Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's not how language works
@TinyViolins yet the thought does.
