Do you agree? It seems true. I always take his feelings my first priority of anything. For instance, I would not complain to go to the car shop or guy's things store with him but he wouldn't like to go shopping with me at all. I care about if he gets hurt by doing something, but when I'm cooking, if my finger gets hurt, he will be like No Big Deal. Is it normal because women is more caring and detail people?

It is true. Women are always more sensitive and understanding than men. I would always be careful not to say anything when i am angry to my boyfriend when we are in an argument but he don't care he would say things delibratly to hurt me. We women think differently than men sometimes i say they are not from earth. We just have to learn how to live with them.

You are right it is not an easy task, sometimes i just feel like giving up, but u must understand that a woman most times is the one holding the family together, and keeps them healthy. look at it in all aspects and u will c. Without a woman most times the family would not be able to servive. Even in managing the money sometimes, case most times men would just spend without thinkin. I think God made man and woman different for a reason. Trust me if both men and women use to think the same, what would happen to the our world.

Whether or not this is because women are innately more sensitive and caring we'll don't really know, but I think a big part of it is because women are conditioned to put other people's needs first. Whereas boys are encouraged to compete and be individualists, girls are usually admonished for the same things, for being too aggressive or unladylike. Also I think part of it is also because they feel like an obligation especially if the woman comes from a conservative ethnic background. Mentally, I'm probably more like a guy. I don't really give a crap about people's feelings and I don't like to accommodate people to the point that it can become a major source of conflict with me and my friends...which is probably why I'd never want to get married because it would mean putting the husband's feelings, needs, and desires in front of my own and I could never do that.

hi mermaidivy , my dear feind, i think it is very much true that women are more sensitive as compared to men. but my hubby is equally caring and loving as i am towards him. sometimes it is that he ignores, and that tooo i feel he dont ignores, it is just a time rush, otherwise he is always there for me in my difficulties. he took care of me when i was pregnant like a small baby , i tell you. he was all the time ready for anything and everything i wanted at any odd hour. when i am not well , i then too tries to go in the kitchen , if i feel that i can , but he never wans me to enter the kitchen till i am fully fine. one day i was frying cutlets and little oil came on my hand and i had burn marks on my hands .i mean spots all over the upper hand. he didnt allowed me to work till they all went well. we all were eating from outside and sometimes he use to cook, because i dont enjoy everyday food from outside and all the meals.

Hello mermaidivy, I agree with you. We care about them more than they do. My husband doesn't like to show his feelings. Whenever he asks me anything, I will try to fulfill, just to make him happy. I don't like to see him gets hurt because of me. But if it's me, he thinks that it is not a big matter that can make me feel sad or hurt. Maybe they are born to be like that!

Yes, they do like to hide their emotions, don't want to express it most of the time.

My husband use to care about my feelings. That is a reason why I feel in love with him. Over the years, he has changed so much. It is like as if he thinks of himself all the time instead of thinking of himself and me equally. He won't go out and do things that I like but I have to go and do things that he likes, even when I am sick. He does it to me most of the time when I am sick. I like romance and I become really happy and excited when he use to be romantic. But now, if I suggest to do something romantic, he doesn't want to do it. Even become intimate with each other. I feel that there is nothing there. The last 4 times I was intimate with my husband, I cried because I know he is happy and I am not satisfied. I don't want to tell him because if would feel that he is not good enough. He even suggested seperation because we were not intimate. I have tried talking to him about differnt things. I have made suggestions to spice up our lifes. But nothing has happened.

It's because women are more sensitive to other people's feelings. We are born to empathize a lot. We can read between the lines while men only care when confronted. That's why the book entitled "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus" was born. It simplify the difference between the two gender. Since we care more, lets start telling them how we feel. Let's not assume that they should no because they never careless. If we really want to make our relationship work with them lets stop assuming that they already know. Lets keep in mind that they are not mind reader (like us). lol
