Many women talk a lot out of nervousness—
which is something that men
will often perceive as insecurity.
6. “One woman I dated was really needy. She needed constant
reassurance about everything. Her family, her friends, and
her job.
During sex,
she said to me, ‘Do you know what
happened to me today at work?’ That one killed my ego!”
7. “The conversation is part of the companionship, but it isn’t
everything. Women overdo talking about feelings. If it feels
like you’ve run out of things to talk about, that’s not a good
thing. There has to be a balance somewhere in between.”
8. “One woman tried to change me. She tried to get me to talk
about my ‘feelings’ more. Hey, look. I can deal with my
own
problems.”
9. “When someone tries to get me to open up and I don’t want
to, there is no way they are getting the information out of
me. I’ll close up even more. I don’t need a woman to ‘help’
me.”
10. “It really makes us happy when a woman lets us go out with
the guys and has no attitude about it. Like if I get tickets to a
hockey game at the last minute. If she’s cool even when I
cancel plans with her, it wins my respect. It feels like she is
secure with herself, and she cares about what makes me
happy, too.”
11. “I had one girlfriend who talked so much I could walk away
into another room and she’d still be talking. One time I was
in the bathroom trying to have some privacy and she was
talking to me through the crack of the door. I really think
there was something wrong with her.”

Talking about feelings to a man
will feel like
work.
When he’s with a
woman, he wants it to feel like
fun
.
12. “When a guy talks about something, it’s over in thirty
seconds. But for a woman, it goes on and on. What seems
like a trivial thing to him seems like it’s life threatening to her.
So then you try to help and you say, ‘Honey, it doesn’t
matter.’ But that makes it worse because she thinks you
don’t care.”
13. “I think a woman who talks less is more attractive because it
makes her more mysterious. It is not a good thing to just
ramble on. Communication should be about quality not
quantity. If a woman is uncomfortable or bothered, he
should be able to feel it without her saying a word.”
14. “One woman wanted the two of us to always be together.
She tried to change how I spend all my time. And every guy
has his own special time or recreation. She wanted me to do
stuff I didn’t want to do. If she knows I am not the ‘artsy’
type, she should let me be who I am. She shouldn’t be
dragging me to an art gallery or a museum. If a guy treats a
woman well, but he doesn’t write poetry or buy stupid
cards expressing his
feelings,
she should just leave well
enough alone.”
15. “I don’t mind a woman who changes the decor in the house,
but when she is obsessed with changing me, it gets old. I
want a woman who has a sense of purpose in her own life,
so she doesn’t waste all her energy trying to control mine.”
What you can glean from this feedback is that, no matter how
much a woman wants intimacy, she can’t force it out of a man—
much less change his stripes. Notice that in the last quote, the man
even says the woman is
wasting her time.
Whenever a woman
speaks in language that appears in any way emotional, most men
will immediately discredit it and think of it as “girlie babble.”
Keeping it short and to the point is essential, otherwise he won’t
hear a single word.
Not only this, but constantly trying to force a man to talk about
feelings or pay an inordinate amount of attention to your feelings is
counterproductive. Here’s why:
