tersengeh2 cam kerang busuk aku baca buku Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus.
some phrase that men should know and women should avoid:
just for fun!
*************************************************************************************
when woman says:
"We never go out"
women actually mean: "I feel like going out and doing something together. We always have such a fun time, and I love being with you. What do you think? Would you take me out to dinner? It has been a few days since we went out."
but men may hear: "You are not doing your job. What a dissapointment you have turned out to be, We never do anything together anymore because you are lazy, unromantic, and just boring"
*************************************************************************************
when woman says:"I am so tired, I can't do anything"
women actually mean: "I have been doing so much today. I really need a rest before I can do anything more. I am so lucky to have your support. Would you give me a hug and reassure me that I am doing a good job and that I deserve a rest?"
but men may hear: "I do everything and you do nothing. You should do more. I can't do it all. I feel so hopeless. I want a 'real man' to live with. Picking you was a big mistake."
*************************************************************************************
when woman says:
"I want to forget everything"
women actually mean: "I want you to know that I love my work and my life but today I love my work and my life but today I am so overwhelmed. I would love to do something really nurturing for myself before I have to be responsible again. Would you ask me 'What's the matter?' and then listen with empathy without offering any solutions? I just want to feel you understanding the pressures I feel. It would make me feel so much better. It helps me to relax. Tomorrow I will get back to being responsible and handling things"
but men may hear: "I have to do so much that I don't want to do. I am so unhappy with you and our relationship. I want a better partner who can make my life more fulfilling, you are doing a terrible job"
*************************************************************************************
when a woman says:
"This house is always a mess"
women actually mean: "Today I feel like relaxing, but the house is so messy. I am frustrated and I need a rest. I hope you don't expect me to clean it all up. Would you agree with me that it is a mess and then offer to help clean part of it?"
but men may hear: "This house is a mess because of you. I do everything possible to clean it up, before I have finished, you have messed it up again. You are lazy slob and I don't want to live with you unless you change. Clean up or clear out!"
*************************************************************************************
when a woman says:
"No one listens to me"
women actually mean: "I am afraid I am boring to you. I am afraid you are no longer interested in me. I seem to be very sensitive today. Would you give me some special attention? I would love it. I've had a hard day and feel as though no one wants to hear what I have to say. Would you listen to me and continue to ask me supportive questions such as:'What happened today? What else happened? How did you feel? Also support me by saying caring, acknowledging and reassuring statements such as:'Tell me more' or 'That's right' or 'I know what you mean' or 'I understand'. Or just listen, and occasionally when I pause make one of these reassuring sounds: 'oh', 'humps', 'uh-huh' and 'hmmm'.
but men may hear: "I give you my attention but you don't listen to me. You used to. You have become very boring person to be with. I want someone exciting and interesting and you are definitely not that person. You have disappointed me. You are selfish, uncaring and bad"
lots more!
but to lazy to type lor...
