I Believe That Men And Women Will Never Understand Eachother

That is so easy to say ("communicate clearly") and so difficult to actually do!

I think learning how the other person views the world and makes decisions is actually something that can take a year, and most people never quite succeed. There are a lot of relationships where people just talk past each other and never quite understand where the other person is coming from.

There's a book with that very title. You should read it.

@amylynne True that (about the actual book). And it gets even more fun when your female friend is online and you don't talk on the phone. Then you get to "listen" in an environment where you cannot actually hear anything she says or how she says it. And she gets to imagine you doing things you aren't actually doing.

people quote that book a lot but few have read it.
the most useful thing was to understand that
when a woman is talking, to her man,, maybe complaining,, HE thinks it is a request to DO somehting about it.. but SHE just want to be listned too

that is so true when we think about the same thing we will be looking at it from such different viewpoints and with different drives.

Tell me about it. Men and women think, feel, behave and communicate very differently. I wonder sometimes how our specie managed to survive. ;-)

But we can try to by talking things out to find out where we disagree and maybe just to agree to disagree :)

Yes this happens a lot and takes a lot of practice to get right with each partner you have.

Very true. That is why I always tell you exactly what I want. :)

Having a thought can be construed either way ....
Never Ending!

I believe in the end, we are all just people, stop trying to box people into genders.

Yes..ive lived this and miscommunication can be awful

You are 100% right

So true!!!

Once you realize that "All men are pigs and All women are insane," things just get much easier.

I agree
