Women are difficult to understand, but it is possible to do so. It just requires that you be extra patient and understanding.
When you find your soul mate, you will see that despite any frustrations, grievences, mixed messages...etc, that it is worth it!
I've been married 9 years (anniversary was July 9th), and I keep falling in love with Kim more and more everyday!
Sure, there are times when we don't see eye-to-eye, and there are times when we disagree, but when that happens, we typically compromise our stand and meet somewhere in the middle.
Communication is really the key with relationships. Listen to her first, and speak less. Get to understand when she says important things, when she has a double meaning, and when she's not so serious. Try not to solve all her problems for her: often when a woman is stressed and complains, she just needs an ear and a shoulder to lean on. Save the romantic heroics for when she's happy.
I recommend reading the book:
Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus by John Grey. While I don't totally agree with everything he says, I believe his points about the psyche of men vs. women are very accurate and easy to understand.
And watch more Oprah!
Just kidding about watching more Oprah!
