Alot has been said n written bout relationships but among de many points raised, one fact alwiz stick out - dat a man n woman are very different frm each other, like strangers preached at 2 ends of a bridge, either side unwilling to move to de other..there's always a BUT..all it takes to meet in de middle is a lil understanding, openness n alot of communication.
Well, let's switch to de man's VIEW and THINKING...
never know wat a man is thinkin about beneath de veneer of peers, work and all their thingy.. i wud say these creature is secretive n keeps feelings to himself. he wants commitment but may not want to show it..just take it dat way, maybe they're not outspoken when it comes to matters of relationships. man desires intimacy but wont take de necessary steps to cross de bridge to meet de woman in de middle.. they tend to put emotions on ice, n reserves their passion fer something else.. at times, i so wanna numb-chuck these lil creature coz getting him to talk about his problems is like tryin to pry open an unripe durian!
Courtship arises.. Doest it really matters?? well, we can define it as de excitement, the chase or the mystery. Human used to say dat courtship is actually a very analytical step in every relationship..well, F dat.. coz i've missed it.. well, de key to a meaningful relationship durin courtship is intimacy and passion..and this is wat lure me to his NEST.. =)
wat i hate is dat, MEN regard this steady/serious relationship as de end of passion and settle down to being 'just comfortable'.. the phrase 'till death do us part' do seem to paint a bleak picture fer the usually commitment-phobic male.. u dulios tend to think of it as imprisonment, but its more of a bond of heart and soul. with commitment, both parties can trust one another..i do understand one thing, it takes trust to make things work, coz without it, commitment is like an annoying itch which can soon develop into an open wound if u keep scratching at it.. i've learn my lesson..
let us come to a bigger thingy now....
SEX and INTIMACY..
i think men and women have very different views bout sex.. fer a woman, sex is an intimate display of affection dat makes a relationship stronger..ok, at times it might be de H word -.-.. for de man, its a different matter altogether. it's an EXTENSION of his MACHO existence.. he considers it of utmost importance, n almost inevitably links it with his status as a man, much lyk his job.. perhaps it is even de reason fer his anxiety among his peers..
strange but true.. when he's unable to perform or live up to his partner's expectations, man can feel pressured n retreat even deeper into his CAVE.. it will even becomes taboo to talk nor mention bout his failin condition. .these creature rarely thinks bout his emotional involvement in de sexual context..
Why does he always ask, was it good for u? like it? and yada yada.. bla bla... simple, it's not just bout performance.. it's also bout de level of intimacy one feels when havin S word with his partner. well, maybe they think it's important to want to fulfill dat need n not just fuel de desire with performance.. Prove me wrong den, dulios!! they think of themselves as sex gods.. cough cough*..Men always have this ideology of being Mr.Fix-it-all..
it crushes my mind at times coz when they faced with a prob dat they cant solve, he tends to find de nearest target to blame. HIMSELF. it's when he examines every possible cause dat he will come to de conclusion dat his lack of ability is his own fault..Again, being a man, he'll always view this as a show of weakness n question his own abilities - especially SO in de sexual context..do u men feel 'macho' to boast about conquests or brag bout powerful performances in bed to other men??
Watever happens, both of us must face it.. no one is goin to build a better, shorter or more convenient bridge for us.. communicating and bonding are essentials.. if u dulios are opening up to tell us bout it, we women r not all bout whining and pain in de ass.. we will listen n b there fer u to go thru together.. but i do understand it may be harder fer some men to come out of their shell at first n it's women's role to make him feel comfortable.. dat's why, coaxing is better than coaching.. women are always complements to men..never jump to de conclusion dat because his mouth is shut, so are his feelings..givin time and patience is all i can offer to u..
learn to bear..learn to bear..
it will all be ok, when i'm in his arms..
