Why Dont Men Talk Like Woman Do?

By angel_eyes

Here's a great irony: Men, in general, are happy in their relationships. And yet women -- the very people responsible for making guys so happy -- spend a great deal of time fretting over whether their men want to stay in the relationship or are waiting to catch the next bus out of it. Indeed, women spend so much time fretting that they often ask men to talk more about ... gasp! ... their feelings. And the one thing that can make a contented guy discontented is being asked to talk about his feelings. It's like cooking up a great souffle, and then opening the oven to check on it -- and presto, the souffle goes flat.
It's not that you should never ask a man about his feelings. But it's all about technique: you need to coax him to that place where he can share; pushing him just makes him stubborn.

Can you share us your techniques on how to let a man share his feelings / inner thoughts willingly with his partner???

WOMEN & MEN

For every strong woman, tired of faking weakness,

there is a weak man, tired of faking strength.

For every woman, tired of faking “foolishness”,

there is a man tired of having to act as a “model of wisdom”.

For each woman tired of being labeled as an “emotional female”

there is a man who has been denied the right to cry and be sensitive.

For every sportswoman whose femininity is questioned,

there is a man forced to compete in order to give testimony of his virility.

For every woman tired of being considered a sexual object,

there is a man concerned about his sexual performance.

For every woman who has not had access to a dignified salary,

there is a man forced to bear the economic responsibility of another human being.

For every woman who ignores the “secrets of car mechanics”,

there is a man who doesn’t know how to “boil an egg”.

For every woman that steps toward her freedom,

there is a man who rediscovers the road to liberty.

The human race is a two-winged bird:

- one wing is female

- the other is male

Unless both wings are equally developed the human race will not be able to fly.

“Now, more than ever, the cause of women is the cause of mankind.” - B. Boutros Ghali

because everyone saying that one gender can make another one happy if they do "this, that or another thing"...The only person who can make you happy, is yourself. If you are unhappy with yourself, there is no way you can share happiness with another being. You CAN however share the insecurity and unhappiness..which usually leads to one or the other spilling their feelings(a LOT!) or irritating the other person ASKING about how they are feeling.

I can't stand to talk about my feelings with others. If I'm happy, it shows..sad, I go and be by myself(or drive) so I don't share my bad mood, if possible. Perhaps that's because I was around my dad so much, growing up. I tend to think more like along the male mindset than female. I do think that if you don't keep nagging and asking what's wrong, eventually, men will open up. Just go be with them. It will never be like most women do, tho, so women have to get ready to listen and interpret what is said, and that includes body language. Men, just the opposite..you have to listen but then filter out all the extraneous stuff, then intrepret what is said. Most women are much more emotionally based and react in that manner. Men are taught NOT to react too much and therefore hold it inside.

Sometimes the toughest thing about feelings is sharing them with others. Sharing your feelings helps you when your feelings are good and when they aren't so good. Sharing also helps you to get closer to people you care about and who care about you. When people talk about feelings, they sometimes use the word "emotions

if the man find some body give him his powerful and his happness

that time he will be ur defener and ur secret .

he will give u all the love that u ask for just to prove to him how can u help him and how u will let his day more aggrisve.

when u smile morning in his face and let him know how much u care about him dont think he will forget u all the day .

he will apprecate and will count the time to finish his work to go home and stay with u to be with ur warmhearted.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this subject, at least I made you open up your mind ;)

Well it doesn't mean Im facing this problem with my partner, and I dont even have to be a "sexologist" SHAZAM, its a fact of life that maybe somehow we got to encounter this situation in all our relationships. This is what we call the mystery of being a man and a woman...

I had in mind to post this subject because I got curious for those women who happens to transform a less expressive men into a more mature one who can share his inner thoughts without loosing the tag of being a man in nature. They are indeed amazing, and I called them "Cool Girl" and this is my definition:

-Lack of Insecurities

-"Easygoing-ness"

-Humor

-Unpredictability

-Independent

-Emotionally "balanced"

And if you will ask me to share my techniques, here it goes:

Just make the man feel good about himself knowing that you are with him physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Now, again can you add more....

Women just cant keep things or secrets to them self. they spit it out, failing to which they cry shedding tears...!! we guys keep secrets, emotional feelings, blah blah within ourself, worst of all don't shed tears therefore die of Heart attacks.

It scientifically proven that since women put out their feelings either by speaking out or shedding tears, they tend to avoid the risk of heart attacks, men are the right opposite.

hmmm... strange ah..? may be i too must cry hard shed gallons of tears and avoid the risk of getting a heart attack.

I dont agree with the first bit of this thread. I dont think women are responsible for mens happiness...We r all responsible for our own appiness. I think talking is over rated..sometimes its better to give each other space...especially after a fight....with time you realise what you fought about was meaningless and to stay and discuss things sometimes makes things worse....

Also if you are in a relationship where theres a constant need to have the "we should talk" conversation..then its really time to take that bus...relationships need a lot of work and maintenace but too many issue or "talks" means somethings not right...and its best to quit while your ahead...

if u ask am man about his feeling sure will say it frank spically if he know that person will listen to him .

and no need to wait his reply bocz the smart lady should know the answer by her self .

and never say lady always poor or powerless they know that but there shyness make them not to ask.

the feeling should not to say it but they have to blieve on the sense of the feeling and always keep on mind .

dont wait for that magic word bcoz u will know it by ur self

and bleive on one thing u want to trust say the truth

and even women is in general like a composition exam. Wonder if one would judge the partner's or potential partner's emotions through words.

In my opinion, it is always the inner feelings which are interpreted to care and respect and desire and commitment. Body language is much more important than vocal language.

to a certain point...

but sometimes a woman's assertiveness is misconstrued as aggressiveness...

In my previous relationships, I let the man speak their minds. That way I would know how to please them. I never ask questions unless I need answers. Sometimes, a woman needs to be more observant...more sensitive to her partner.

believe me, sometimes a simple touch, a gesture speaks a thousand words...

I agree with Jax, I'm the same way. I say what I want but then if they reciprocate I get all weirded out. I'm happier when they don't share their feelings.

why would you want to hear them when you know it's superficial?

When emotions/true feelings really comes from within, men usually finds it hard to express it...

It's like "Say what you mean and Mean what you say"...or something like that.

I know they have lots in their mind, especially when he will stare at you and smile a bit. But when you begin to ask whats the matter with him, he will keep his silence and sometimes open a new topic to avoid questioning his thoughts. That makes us women being offended.

Sometimes we just want to hear the words... and few words means a lot to us...
