Instead, I'm going to forward a link to my own (very wonderful) husband, so that he can read your blog, too.Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04644351603923691226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5000770442104668433.post-69883911886793269662008-03-18T09:19:00.000-05:002008-03-18T09:19:00.000-05:002008-03-18T09:19:00.000-05:00really good observations and great tips but I think this is not only a great read for men but also for women too. It helped me remember that my husband is a guy and not one of my girlfriends or sisters. While yes it's great when he does follow those basic tips for the most part. I do beleive that women also need to remember and not "nag" there man whenever he's quiet for more then a 15 min. If there is something wrong? for the most part, he'll let you know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5000770442104668433.post-6792927930610209832008-02-29T15:54:00.000-06:002008-02-29T15:54:00.000-06:002008-02-29T15:54:00.000-06:00While I think some of these points are valid and well observed (e.g. don't belittle her) I think some go too far toward catering to women and don't do enough to allow men to act like men. I understand communication is important, but I disagree that it's such a significant cause of broken marriages (even if women tend to blame their divorces on it). I think it's important for each side to make concessions to a degree. I'm not sure if you intended for this article to be one-sided, but I think there are few opportunities for women to do their part in helping with communication issues (like not stressing out if your husband hasn't said anything to you in the last 15 minutes). Yes men can be over-rational, but women can be over-emotional. Like many things in life, the middle ground is the best place to be.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5000770442104668433.post-4919688379813851212008-02-10T11:07:00.000-06:002008-02-10T11:07:00.000-06:002008-02-10T11:07:00.000-06:00Thank you for submitting your post to <A HREF="http://www.tipdiva.com/2008/02/09/carnival-of-tips-february-9-2008/" REL="nofollow">Carnival Of Tips</A>!<BR/><BR/>Great tips - unfortunately, communication has been the biggest problem I've known in most failed relationships.Tip Divahttp://www.tipdiva.comnoreply@blogger.com
