Hi, guys. I came across an article about what Men really wish We (women) Knew which I found it very interesting and wanna shared with you girls out there! And for dude, don't get offended about this article and freely to give your arguments and comment if you feel offended, hehehe! Frankly speaking, I have many good friends from the opposite sex (i mean boys) and by coincidence, I got to know a little bit their man-side that quite distinguish from the girls and still observing about it. Let's see what most of the dude really want us (women) to know:
1. Time flies when you're a man:
"For men, time goes by faster than for women. Einstein tried to explain this with his theory of relativity and I think it was all about trying to get along with his wife. So, the next time a guy doesn't call or text a girl back right away or it's been two weeks since he last said 'I love you,' just remember that it doesn't mean he doesn't care it, it just means that time passes differently for him."- I fully agreed with this one, hahhaha-
2. They think that women are more powerful:
"In that single moment when you glance in our direction, we lock eyes, and all we feel is our heart beating through your chest, you have us. And there is absolutely nothing we can do about it!"-This was so true-
3. Confidence is sexier than any lingerie:
"Men already love your body as it is but when you're confident, it's even more of a turn on! Along those lines…lingerie is way overrated!- Not only the dude, girls have the same thought about the confidence, though.
4. Let me think I'm the funniest guy you know:
"Ladies, we don't like when you're laughing too hard at another man's jokes. Unless we're at a comedy club or he's your father, there's no reason for that. -Actually, it's not about the jokes. It's all about the talking about the other man in front of them that matter. They get jealous, so sweet and sweat!-
5. We care about much more than looks:
"Women need to know that looks aren't the only thing that matters to us. If I want to be in a relationship with somebody, I need to have a deeper connection with them than just the physical. The best thing that a woman could do to attract me is to be herself."-Same goes to the girls, just be yourself (show your true color) if you want your relation long lasting-
6. We're not so different:
"At the gym, men are just as self conscious and check themselves out in the mirror just as much as women do. In regards to cooking, men can do more than BBQ. All you need to do is ask-but be sure to do it after the game! Oh, and, men do like salads, especially if they are topped off with bacon!"- Yup couldn't agree more, it have been proved a lots of my friends-
7. I have no secrets:
"I've always been told that women know everything. Is that not accurate?"- However, depends! Usually, they just told to their girls that they feel comfort to talk with, can be trusted, and a good listener as well-
8. Don't try so hard:
"I wish women knew even though we appreciate you taking hours to get dressed and 'put on your face,' it's no longer necessary. Superficial beauty catches our attention but natural beauty keeps it."-Although they like to flirt their eyes on the 'hot babes' but somehow, in a way they love their women to keep simple and natural. Sounds weird but it's reality-
9. Drop hints to avoid disappointing gifts:
"When it comes to gift giving, I wish women knew that we are about as clueless as a five-year-old boy doing quantum physics. The pressure of nailing the best gift is enough to drive a man to tears. So, unless you give us a hint or just flat out tell us what you'd like, you are most likely going to end up with something unwanted. Like when I bought my wife tickets to see a wrestling match for our anniversary. She said she liked sports!"- Dude always think straight, they don't like to mess their head to think about this small things (small for them but it's a big deal for the girls)-
10. We mean well: "As guys, we're always trying to do or say something with the best of intentions, but it always seems to backfire. We mean well. Give us the benefit of the doubt once in a while!" -Girls this is sooooo true. Don't get upset if your man says something that you make you think they don't love you. They just don't that good to deliver something that they meant well to you due their man-ego-side-thingy-
That's why Man and women are different in many ways of thinking. Have you ever heard a book (bestseller list, sold 7 millions copies) written by John Gray, a relationship counselor"Men from Mars and Women from Venus". In this book, it told us that most of common relationship problems between men and women are a result of fundamental differences between the genders, which the author exemplifies by means of the book's eponymous metaphor: that men and women are from distinct planets, – men from Mars and women from Venus – and that each gender is acclimated to its own planet's society and customs, but not those of the other. One example from this paradigm is the book's assertion that men complain because they are asking for solutions while women complain because they want to be acknowledged. The book asserts that each gender can be understood in terms of distinct ways they respond to stress and stressful situations.
So, men and women be patient and take part in getting know their partner well to have a long lasting relationship. Be considerate and tolerate for every situation to strengthen the bridge of understandings and be as a complementary partner. Seems like I have to change my future career as relationship counselor or consultant, lolz! Okay, stay tuned in happy mode and keep learning, peeps! Peace!
