The problem with relationships Sep 21, 2005 \| 10:18PM Brother and Sisters, After much observation, I have concluded there are two root causes of all relationship problems. 1. Men are not mindreaders 2. Women do not realize that men are not mindreaders If your relationship is having problems, these are the causes. If you are a man, all you need to do is ask your woman how she's feeling, and then actually listen. She will think you are the most sensitive man she's ever met, and she'll be more willing to tell you how she feels in the future. If this is not a desirable outcome, perhaps you should find another partner. If you are a woman, you must realize that your man doesn't know what you are thinking. Ever. Why is this? It is not because he's insensitive or because he just doesn't care about you -- it's because he's not a mindreader. Once you realize this, forgive him for it, and tell him how you feel (without him having to ask), all will be well with the world. Go in peace.

True observation, though I would venture to add one more "root cause" to the list-- doing the above and then actually caring.
After all, it's easy to ask and it's easy to talk, but really caring and taking what your partner says to heart entails a little more effort. And the right attitude.

Plus, I think it goes both ways. As much as we like to overanalyze situations, women aren't mindreaders, either :-)

Great first non-grab related blog!

I have a possible hi-tech solution to offer.

Both people should write blogs, that way they can sit across from each other with laptops and understand each other perfectly :)

Our blogs are only part of our lives, Ms. Taffy. Lauren and I also talk to each other.

Via cell phones and instant messenger programs.

No, no! In PERSON.

You know... as funny as it's meant to be, that's actually not a bad idea! When you write something, you can get all your thoughts down without interruptions, you can organize what you want to say, and edit it to perfection!

Plus you'll have a written record in case it ever boils down to a "you said X", "no, I didn't!" argument :-D

Ha! I hate to burst your bubble, Lex, but that's just us women letting you think you've proven that you're right :-D

It's only a bad idea if you didn't tell her beforehand that she should've made you one (y'know, back to that "mindreader" business) ;-) Oh, and it's also a bad idea if you're not actually a caveman :-P

So true. If he really _were_ a caveman, he would've shoved the old Spanish lady onto the sidewalk by now. So cheers to you, foobonic, we'll make you a ham sammich anyday! :-D
