“A very angry woman is a woman who feels ignored.. if you want her to not be angry give her lots of attention” Have you seen this as dating advice?

Question

I was looking up suggestions on how to resolve conflict i wasn’t gendering the question just looking in general. Good to know women are so one dimensional that makes life very simple ig 🫠

it was all “guys if you think your bc is angry and you want to solve the problem ” guys if your girlfriend us mad it means she feels ignored. A woman will be very angry if she is ignored, so if she is angry you can be sure she feels she’s not getting attention.. so just huge her what she will be will be happy. If that doesn’t quirk you may have to examine the situation more & look for other causes.

Then there was was stuff for women, “if you feel like your guy might be upset see a therapist 😳 😂 talk it out don’t nag your boyfriend give him space but let him know you care. He may never want to talk about it do not force him.

It’s funny how these advice are all based on assuming stuff about the person and for me often when I DOZ get annoyed it’s bc someone so jumping to conclusions instead of just talking it out 🫤 It’s crazy how none of it was just TALK to the person and why are they talking about wow ken like they are dumb puppies.. I’m still kinda in shock.

There’s some weird advice sites that must have been engineered from a 1950s CEO’s butthole. Just Wonder if anyone has come across these.

I think it's less about how men and women inherently interact and more about how we learn to interact. Women are taught to be more social and to generally interact more. It's almost an expectation to text/talk regularly to a friend, family member, SO, etc. Which, by the way, is generally considered healthy because communication for the win. Guys aren't taught this so much as they're taught to be emotionally independent.

Thus when a woman is trying to problem-solve, she tends to address the conflict via what is more or less an excess of communication and empathy, meanwhile a man will try to limit communication to the bare minimum to avoid letting their emotions play out too much.

In theory, on one hand you have solid communication and on the other you have strong emotional control, but realistically, everyone should have both to a decent extent. Instead we get the assumption that women need to be showered with attention in order to be happy, when in reality we're just trying to problem-solve in the only way we know how. You also get the assumption that guys will be distant or removed and need to actually try in order to deal with a conflict if they bother to address it at all, but when they do, they're incredibly straightforward and often single minded.

Neither is correct, or reflective of healthy practices, but that's more or less why we think that way.

Yes I have heard about this but I think it should go both ways. I don't like gender biased advice. All are humans , all have feelings 😅😅. There are many ways of perceiving a situation so only one thing can't be concluded. We can talk to that person , ask him/her about particular situation and get an idea what that person is feeling (if that person is not a liar 😅. I mean if he/she doesn't lie about his feelings).

I've heard similar ideas to this over the years, a woman being mad because she feels ignored so do something special for her, say you love her, hug her, etc. It's not good advice at all. It basically encourages women to behave like spoiled brats who always need something given to them in order for them to feel good, or feel better about themsevles. Take, take, take, and never give or care about the guy.

I can guarantee you the women who advocate stuff like that are spoiled and don't get their way, and they're upset because they have a ridiculous need for attention beyond what's necessary, and think getting attention is the answer to life. Some of the most toxic advice that could ever be given to a man to quell a woman's temper tantrum.

Excellent advice. So to recap:
If a you're girlfriend is upset, hugging her will solve everything.
I your boyfriend is upset, you should see a therapist.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

However, some things "high quality men" should know are:
If your girlfriend is upset, blame feminism.
If she's your housewife and gets upset, an over the knee spanking will settle her down.
If she is upset and you hug her, you're a simp.

And all a woman needs to know is:
If your boyfriend is upset, offer to make him a sandwich or bring him a beer, or perform fellatio.

If all else fails, ask GAG.

I hope that was helpful. 🤣🤣🤣

If a person feels like they aren't getting enough attention, it means they aren't compatible.

Spending time together should not be different than spending time alone, aside from the added company.

Busy gaming? Play together.
Busy watching tv? Watch together.
Making art or music? Collab on a project.
Reading a book? Read it out loud to them.
Going to the gym, bar, club, arcade, library, beach, camping, hiking, a sporting event, or whatever other place? Go with them.
Horny and want to masturbate? Have sex instead.

If your SO makes you choose between them and your hobbies/lifestyle at any moment, you picked the wrong person. The idea that you need to set aside time to give them attention is absurd, your normal lifestyle should automatically result in spending most or all of your time together.

Yeah, that advice is so general and assumes women are all generally the same.

My brain immediately started racing about attention whores... women that can't validate themselves so they seek constant attention. I was like, she's not going to be angry... she's going to cheat. 😂

genericname85 · Answer

hell no. i don't want an angry woman. if she's angry, i'll turn around and leave. not gonna deal with that.

that's like saying "if you want a narcissistic attention whore, you gotta feed her ego with attention". i'm not at all into that idea.

Angry people are often angry at one or both of their parents but display their answer to others. Until they realize this they will continue to be inappropriately angry with others.

I not only give this advice, but I also practice what I preach.

JackCarter · Answer

Well the opposite is also true! "A very happy woman is a woman who feels loved" !

Ms_Facesitter · Answer

I think it's useless advice. I think anyone who is being ignored is going to be pissed.

Woman means 'already married' If alone, means a divorcee. Otherwise she's a bachelorette. Bachelorettes are usually very nice, friendly, well behaved (if at times frightened).

RealMarek · Answer

I think women can be angry for multiple reasons, not just when they feel ignored.

LiamJHayden · Answer

Yes, but I assume no responsibility for some random woman being agro and I actually avoid those.

Snakeyes7 · Answer

That makes absolutely no sense because there are plenty of things to be angry about besides "being ignored"

kakaling · Answer

I'll prefer she let me knows when she needs me, and when she needs space. And not letting me guess it wrong everytime.

ButthurtGAGpeople1 · Answer

If she's not bored, she won't be angry. If she's bored, she has no life
