Women about men: what not to do and say

Prohibited phrases

• You should spend more time with your children, they get bored.
• You're going very fast, slow down.
• Here's a parking spot, put it here.
• You want to spend time with your friends, but what about me?
• Don't put it here or you'll lose it.
• Mom has already called three times, when will you call her back?

Women use exaggerations and metaphors that men take literally.
They react to them with barbs and the best type of defense, that is, attack. For example, “always”, “never”, “everything”, “can’t hear/see/feel at all”, “blind/deaf/mute”. Avoid the expression: “Could you?”, “Can’t you...?” A man also takes them literally. To your “Couldn’t...” he honestly answers, “I can,” without implying that he will do it. If you need help, say directly: “Please do it.”

Useful phrases

• It is not your fault.
• I'm glad I can talk to you about this.
• I'm glad that I can cry to you, it makes me feel better.
• I spoke out, I felt better, thank you.
• It's so good that I have you.
• You work so hard to provide for us.
• You did/fixed/said so well...

When asking for support, speak briefly and directly when discussing the situation, talk about feelings, not about him. Replace “You upset me” with “I was upset,” “You offended me” with “I was offended.” And, completing the description of your feelings and emotions, say how you want it to be next time. We often say “I don’t want”, “I don’t like”, while keeping silent about what exactly we want and what we like.

How do women ruin relationships?

The desire to redo, giving advice, criticism, guardianship, control and the desire to do better, devaluing what he does, reminders of what he does not do.

How do men ruin relationships?

The desire to teach, to tell how to do it, with instructions from the “don’t worry” category. Passive listening, without questions, participation and empathy, ignoring the feelings that a woman shares in a conversation.

What to do?

Men often think silently, women often think out loud. When he thinks, any verbal interference is regarded as doubt in his independence. When a woman thinks out loud, intervention is perceived as caring, involved, and helpful. A man's strength is consistency, but women are much better at multitasking. She can cook dinner, check her homework, talk on the phone and give herself a to-do list for tomorrow. A man can often only do one task. If you asked him to help your son with his homework, don’t bombard him with questions about dinner, don’t ask how your day went, or how your mother’s health is. The man is consistent: first the lessons, then the rest point by point.

For a man, there are no boundaries between sympathy and pity, but for a woman, these are two different ways of showing care. Pity devalues ​​a man; for a woman it speaks of participation. It is important for a man to feel independence and freedom from time to time, so sports, hunting and fishing retreats are natural and important for him. The need to be with a woman and the need to be alone naturally alternate. This is comparable to how a woman's cycles of inspiration and emotional decline change.

Feminine energy

Surely many are familiar with the saying: “Behind every great man there is a loving woman.” It is a woman’s love, her emotions and thoughts that determine whether her husband will be successful. If she sincerely believes that her man is the best and most talented, then he will succeed in everything he does. If a woman is dissatisfied with her husband, constantly scolds him mentally and considers him a loser, then he will be like that in life, his endeavors will not be successful, and he will not even always be able to understand why this happens.

With her energy, a woman has a huge influence on a man. And even if she does not reproach him verbally for failures and mistakes and compares him out loud with another more successful acquaintance, the man will still be charged with the energy that the woman and her thoughts about her partner emit.

The power of women's thoughts

It is believed that a woman is a creator within the family, and a man is in the outside world, outside the small family world. And indeed it is. But what and how a man will create in the outside world depends on what he has time to absorb in the family world. It is exactly how a woman thinks about her partner that he will carry outside, and the position that she thinks about him is what he will take there.

A man should constantly please his beloved, give her gifts and share emotional warmth. Then she will think of him as a generous, beloved and successful spouse, recharging him with strength and energy. But women themselves should also try to make their man successful, using gratitude, support, encouragement and having the ability to inspire.

A successful man is a happy woman

Even for the smallest trifle and help from a man, for his slightest show of attention and even the most insignificant gift, a woman should thank her chosen one. The power of gratitude is enormous and difficult to overestimate. A man who receives gratitude from his beloved and sees that she is sincere is capable of great deeds and accomplishments, and he has a desire to please his wife as often as possible.

Also, a woman should believe in her loved one, even when he has failures at work or is at a crossroads and has lost faith in his own strength. The wife herself must be confident that he will cope with everything, and instill this inspiring faith in her beloved. A woman can note her husband’s virtues, mention them during conversation, say how proud she is of her husband’s qualities and how she loves him for them.

Every person is unique; for some, the best support will be a simple hug, and for others, a listing of his past achievements. Men are straightforward, so there is nothing wrong with asking them directly about how a woman can support her man, and do exactly what is most convenient for him.

And the most important rule for a man’s success is the ability to inspire him with your words, your tenderness, affection and warmth, your faith and the power of gratitude, your own example of constant growth and development.
