Man Talk

When you first look at a man and a woman, you are able to notice the subtle differences between the sexes.  It is when the two sexes communicate with each other, however, that the differences become truly glaring.  This is because one is speaking “he talk” while the other is speaking “she talk.”

 

Where this difference really becomes a problem is when you are in a relationship, and you need to know how to combine “he talk” and “she talk” into “we talk.”  So I feel like it's my job as a man and as a dating coach to help all the women learn how to understand “he talk” (or “man talk” as I like to call it), so that they won't need to hire a translator to understand what men are saying.

 

Women always want men to express their feelings.  They always complain “Why can't he just say he loves me?” or “I wish he would just compliment me more.”

 

What you need to pay attention to and realize, though, is that men do tell you they love you and compliment you . . . they just do it using their own language.  Men, in fact, sometimes don't use words at all when they are communicating with you.

 

This will help you understand men's verbal and non-verbal language.  Sometimes it's not what men say, but it's their actions that are significant.  It is necessary for women to learn to interpret men's very roundabout way of communicating with them.

 

Here are ten things that men say and do, and what they really mean:

 

   1. He starts talking about how crazy all his single friends' lives are, and then he tells you that he doesn't miss it at all.  What most women will think if they hear this, is that he misses those days.  This is not true.  He says this because he is looking for confirmation that you feel exactly the same way.  He also wants to communicate that he's ready to take the relationship to the next level.

 

   2. Since you recently took him to your family's house for dinner, he can't stop talking about how much fun he had with your brother.  What he means here is that he really likes your family, and wouldn't mind being a part of your family.

 

   3. He teases you a lot about things like how clumsy you are or about how you put smiley faces in every one of your emails.  What he's really telling you when he does this is that he really likes you a lot.  Remember that men are just giant boys . . . we tease the ones we love and ignore the ones we don't.

 

   4. A man tells you he needs his space.  So what does this mean to you?  It means that you need to ignore him and not call him.  Men love the chase.  By not calling him, he'll start calling you and wondering what happened.

 

   5. A man says that he really wants you to meet his parents.  What does this mean in man talk?  He's telling you that you are his girlfriend, and that he is ready to take it to the next level by getting you involved with his family.  This brings us right to the next bit of “man talk.”
