Relationship Counseling: Women
In my previous article entitled, “Relationship Counseling: Men,” I spoke to all the men, enlightening them on ways to improve an important aspect in their relationship known as communication. Since men and women are different, it’s only right that I give each their proper attention for we each have our own issues that need to be attended to. So now that I’ve gotten the men out the way, it’s time I address the ladies.
Like I mentioned before, both men and women communicate differently. We both express ourselves in different ways. Once again, communication is “the imparting or interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs.”
In order for communication to take place there must be a starting point. A conversation is initiated by one person and maintained by two. Therefore, ladies, it’s important to speak about the things that you feel need to be addressed. If you have a problem, speak up! There is no way a man can pin point a problem if you do not voice the issue.
Also, when speaking your mind, it is very important in choosing the right words in order to prevent matters from getting worse. Now, because you women are very emotional, it happens that your words are not always well chosen, as a result, they may hurt. I feel a misconception in the way men are projected. Because society has put men out to be the tough guys, seems like our being human has been overlooked.
One important thing to remember is that before a man can be man, he has to be human first. When you come to consider a man as a human being, you realize that, just like you, he has feelings too and, just like you, he too hurts. Not for one second should you think words bounce off of him without harm because that would be unrealistic. Think about the consequences of your actions. Ask yourself, “Will my actions make things better, or will it make it worse? When you love someone, allow it to be manifested through your words, not only when times are good, but most significantly, when times are rough. With true love, it’s possible!
