Because most females can’t handle the Truth , they assume that all guys’ are assholes and sadly There are a lot of selfish men as well But for the most part females feel that she was put on Earth to be catered to , She doesn’t understand boundaries she labels boundaries as control , she wants her man to bend over backwards for her but sadly she can’t do the same in return , That’s where Double Standards occur , because she can’t wear his shoes the same way she expects him to wear hers. I have given my heart completely to a girl , stayed loyal and loving and
Caring , made her my priority over everyone else and I still get shit on over and over, to the point I realized I am never good enough and realized I just had Sucker written on my head , Now I am broken and sadly I feel I can never be enough for any girl, my only option is focusing on myself and my own happiness , I can only choose a girl that chooses me , because sadly we just end up just being options not a priority , but I keep trying hoping to find a girl that isn’t selfish , that truly understands what it means to be in a relationship, Sadly social media played a big part on pushing that further away from each other. I am not saying all guy’s are perfect and all girls’ are bad , but finding a good one is just harder to find these days

let me give you to key to understand woman.

everything you are, they are not.

this logic can be applied to almost everything.

womans worst mistake is they believe their reality is the truth and guys should be like them but doesn't realise that they always fall for the ones who breaks their bubbles.

Just like men have a hard time understanding women.
We're not the same and we communicate in a way that suits ourselves, because most people lack the notion to try and communicate in a manner that is convenient for both.

Men think they are direct, because they understand what they mean when they say something.
Women think they are direct, because they understand what they mean when they say something.

We all think we are direct, until we aren't.

There are both men and women equally who read too much into things that aren't there, and that's alright.

I've been on the same end. Thinking a man was straight forward when he mentioned he was seeing someone, then discussing his behaviour towards me with my male friends and having them tell me he was clearly hitting on me. Hence my confusion.

If you want to make things clear, practice what you preach, because truthfully, many don't. That accounts for all individuals.

Communication Style:  Women, on average, may tend to use more detailed and expressive language, focusing on building connections through conversation. Men, on average, might use more direct and concise language, often focusing on conveying information or solving problems. Emotional Expression:  Women may, on average, be more expressive of their emotions and attuned to nonverbal cues. Men may, on average, be socialized to express emotions less openly or may do so differently, possibly emphasizing action over verbalization. Problem-Solving Approach:  Women might, on average, prefer collaborative and supportive problem-solving approaches. Men might, on average, lean towards more independent and solution-oriented problem-solving.

Men, on average, might exhibit more solution-focused listening, aiming to identify and solve problems. Decision-Making: Women might, on average, consider a broader range of factors and perspectives when making decisions. Men might, on average, prioritize efficiency and task-oriented considerations in decision-making.

Because they tend to think that we think the same as them. They’re controlled by their feelings. In her mind your answer, your thoughts should be the same as hers. If it’s not the same as hers than you’re wrong, there’s something wrong w you. Women tend to think way more into it than there really is. Look at the number of questions on here in regards to women w men. A man smiled at me what does that mean? He said hi what does that mean? He opened the door for me what does that mean? Etc, etc, etc. Look at the questions men ask. Pretty short, direct to the point. When you look at the women’s questions it’s a whole book.

AviatorTom · Answer

It'd in the genes. Women tend to overthink things, trying to analyze every little thing, thinking everything is important. It's not.

We guys are actually simple creatures. Girls, take what we say or do at face value, and you'll be much more relaxed, less stress, and enjoy life more.

JordanianNumetal · Answer

Mostly because they don’t actually care. they are the only thing that matters in there world. It’s confusing because women will act like they care to get what they want. Usually money.

IslaTheWitch · Answer

I'm very straightforward but it doesn't change anything :D I can tell you, that the longer you speak with someone the better it goes... so... there is still a hope

Luv2BRealExotic13 · Answer

Not all the time. Sometimes the answers men give are confusing if they’re trying to spare a woman’s feelings or something. That’s probably a maturity level thing. When the answers are direct you have a many people that romanticize and lie to themselves, don’t get me started on the weird men that their actions vs words don’t line up.

hello2024 · Answer

Men aren’t as vocal as women are with what we are thinking and feeling. I think if men felt comfortable communicating their thoughts and feelings women wouldn’t be so confused but this can sometimes be the woman’s fault if her man does not feel comfortable expressing his feelings and thoughts. Women have to allow that vulnerability and comfortability for them in you. That’s just my cup of tea, I’m pretty sure other people opinions on here are correct too.

Simple... they know... but they play stupid for their benefit.  Look at these fucking retards Fucking with men.. but they know what they're doing. They're not stupid and that's my answer.

A-John-W · Answer

Long story short? Women are more emotive when making decisions, men are more rational.

Women would rather vent to someone they trust before working through a problem, whereas men instead just try to find a way to solve it and if they come to you, it will be for advice rather than to confide.

This can lead to women seeing men as reserved, even clinical for attempting to give everything she comes to him with a solution rather than being passively supportive, and inversely the man becomes confused and potentially irritated with the frequency of problems (the line for him feeling the need to consult another being far higher), feeling as though the woman is being irrational or dramatic.

It's a communication issue, plain and simple, and the fact that nowadays it's getting harder and harder to point out the very real and provable ways that men and women are wired differently (which there are very good biological reasons for, but that's a whole other point)

dynamicyandere · Answer

At least 2 categories of men would be difficult to understand:

1. Men with horrible communication habits.

2. Men who intentionally play mind games.

If you don’t fall into those, or a similar category, these women aren’t referring to you.

Joshydavid25 · Answer

They do actually to some extent.. At least on certain things.. And a lot think they do from a woman's perspective, and don't really care to actually understand. I mean these days everything a men does is seen with a take of bad faith..

DarkWinterNights · Answer

Because they don’t have to. Look at all the podcasts, dating coaches, red pill content, the Andrew Tates, etc. all devoted to (some extent) helping men understand women. I don’t see the equivalent from women helping other women understand men. Because men are still expected to take the lead, ask the woman out, pay for dates, and gate-keep the relationship. Which is why you get all these TikToks of women asking really basic questions. The culture shifted exponentially faster than evolution.

MissBoogus · Answer

Tbh I don’t have trouble understanding men, they are very straight forward. The hard time understanding part comes because they seem so clueless to even basic emotions and some really seem to lack empathy too. Are brains really seem to work differently in ways

Alwayreckles93 · Answer

Woman are just naturally over dramatic its in our nature.

DextroShade · Answer

They don't need to understand men to get with them because men are the ones who have to approach them. Combine this with their the inherent lack of accountability and they won't even attempt to understand men or why they can't keep a decent one around.

LazerBean · Answer

No clue, maybe they didn't have a father to tell them how simple men are.

Things he does or doesn't when he shouldn't or should.

Darklydarkened · Answer

Because women don't take things face-value, they don't like straight forward realism, they are raised with ridicilous ideological templates from get go so they just can't interact well with reality.

Brain scans show noticeable differences in male and females. This is determined at DNA. But there are always exceptions on both sides.
