Men, according to the society are known to be unemotional and may tend to bottle up all they feel inside. Their inability to share their their true feelings with a significant other maybe the same reason they don’t want to feel worse than they already are.
.
Women in turn may make things harder for the man when he tries to open up. Men want to get response from a buddy who would give them validation for their actions rather than a wife offering words of encouragement.
.
According to Blogher, here are FOUR things wives should stop doing if they want their husbands to open up more to them:
.
1. Instead of racking your brain for solutions, stop and pay attention to him. Make him know you care by listening to him.
.
2. Instead of analysing what he’s really feeling, make him feel better by giving a name to his feelings, words like‘Wow, that’s terrible’should be said rather than‘I think you should’.Trust his judgement always.
.
3. Don’t proffer solutions unless he asks you. Ask first what immediate thing you can do to help his situation.
.
4.Don’t brush off his concerns or problems as irrelevant, they clearly are to him or else he wouldn’t be saying so. People see se-x as a factor for relief, initiate if you both feel it’ll make him feel better afterwards.
