Talking About Feelings With A Man<\/h2>\n

Have you ever shared how you’re feeling with a man and he\u00a0looks at you like you’re crazy? \u00a0Have you been told that you are too emotional by a man?<\/p>\n

It is important to understand that men simply do not\u00a0understand or process emotions like women. \u00a0They also don’t know how to react the way women would like\u00a0them to when feelings are shared.<\/p>\n

Today I’d like to teach you how you can\u00a0share your feelings with a man without scaring him away.
\n
\nYes, men do have feelings<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You may be tempted to say that men don’t have feelings\u00a0because they are content to never share what- if any-emotions that are circulating through their minds.<\/p>\n

Contrary to popular opinion, men do have feelings. They\u00a0simply do not process them the way women do.<\/p>\n

Women share, men act<\/strong><\/h3>\n

When women are faced with emotions, they want to share. \u00a0They want to get it all out and much of the time they want\u00a0their partner to be the one who gets to hear it.<\/p>\n

Men, on the other hand, when they are faced with emotions\u00a0rising, want to do something. \u00a0They don’t want to sit and spew out their hurts,\u00a0frustrations, anger, etc.<\/p>\n

Many would much rather go tinker in the garage with the truck,\u00a0go golfing, or engage in murder via the Play Station.<\/p>\n

Men do not process emotions as easily as women. \u00a0They may become quiet or need to leave for awhile in order\u00a0to calm down.<\/p>\n

Apply little pressure<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If a man feels pressure to meet your emotional needs, he\u00a0may end up pulling away. \u00a0It’s not because he doesn’t love you; it’s because he just\u00a0can’t do it or doesn’t know how to respond.<\/p>\n

He’s not wired that way.<\/p>\n

He is wired to fix problems, so if you come to him saying,\u00a0“I feel this way and I feel that way…” he simply goes\u00a0into “fix” mode and will start listing the things that you\u00a0need to do so that you will feel better.<\/p>\n

You, on the other hand, just want him to listen and\u00a0console you. \u00a0Nine times out of ten, he won’t unless you specifically\u00a0tell him (and remind him) that that is all you need from\u00a0him.<\/p>\n

The bottom line<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you ask older women who’ve been married for decades for\u00a0some marital advice, many of them will tell you to get a\u00a0best friend to share your emotions with because your\u00a0husband is not capable of meeting your emotional needs.<\/p>\n

It’s true. They have learned a valuable lesson.<\/p>\n

Understand that your man will not be able to empathize\u00a0with you as well as a woman. \u00a0So if you want to vent about the gossip at work or how you\u00a0don’t look good in any of your clothes, it is probably\u00a0best to do that with your sister, mother, or a friend.<\/p>\n

If you tell your man, he is likely to think you are simply\u00a0moaning and groaning (again) and tell you to get a new job\u00a0that you like and buy some new clothes.<\/p>\n

He is not trying to be insensitive.<\/p>\n

Remember, he simply goes into “fix it” mode and thinks he\u00a0is doing you justice by helping fix your problems.<\/p>\n

Of course there are times when you need to talk to your\u00a0man about something that is bothering you regarding the\u00a0relationship.<\/p>\n

Feel free to do so, but use positive communication and\u00a0share without judgment or premeditation’s.<\/p>\n

For example, instead of saying, “I’m sick and tired of you\u00a0always hanging out with your friends and we never get to\u00a0hang out with mine,” say something like this:<\/p>\n

“I love hanging out with your friends, dear, but we\u00a0haven’t really spent much time with mine. <\/em>I’d love for you to get to know them better so how do you <\/span>think we can go about that?”<\/span><\/p>\n

Keeping it light and positive will go much better and your\u00a0man will think highly of you for understanding the\u00a0difference between man and woman’s ability to process\u00a0emotions.<\/p>\n

I hope this has helped you to understand better\u00a0how a man and woman differ when processing and sharing\u00a0emotions.<\/p>\n

You can share your feelings with your man without scaring\u00a0him away as you acknowledge that it is not his job to meet\u00a0all of your emotional needs.<\/p>\n

Additionally, don’t forget to simply tell your man what\u00a0you need from him: just a listening ear, an affirmation, a\u00a0hug, etc.<\/p>\n

That way he won’t go right into “fix it” mode and you will\u00a0feel heard and affirmed.<\/p>\n

After all, isn’t that all you really want anyway?<\/p>\n
