Talk To Me!

sometimes things just can't be said as You want to say them.

No you are not alone. I saw that segment...I thought she was foolish for giving him up because you could see that he really cared about her. When you love someone and they love you then you don't need to know everything....every thought or need. I figure the same thing.....if and when they want to share that's great...but I don't like someone always probing me for every detail of my feeling either!

hi sarah! well, in my experience, my hubby is also not a "talker" per se, but he is an attentive listener. and although before he doesn't talk much, eventually, he has come to a point where he really gives me his opinion on things that i talk to him about. i guess it is a matter of getting your message across. he doesn't have to talk to you all the time. and when my hubby is concerned about something, he doesn't hesitate to talk to me. good day and God bless you1 :)

I like a man that can carry on a conversation not grunt, sometimes my ex husband would say as much as two words to me in a week, I don't like men like that,

You're not alone Sarah. Problem is, this still exists in plenty of women. The men don't talk enough, the men won't open up, the men are shut in, the men focus too much on hobbies (and don't talk/pay-attention). Of course, communication is very important for a relationship, but forced or demanded talk... that is counterproductive. Sarah I don't know if you saw my gender double standards discussions (half satire, much experience)... but I highlighted a connundrum with the need for talk. If a guy doesn't talk enough he's a shut in, too shy, won't communicate, is closed off. If a guy does talk or talks too much... well he talks too much, or its perceived as being less masculine. In any case, this bachelorette situation just seems like another no-win scenario in dating/relationships if it plays out in either direction. The key is be yourself. If you are shy, you can either change it yourself, or be comfortable with the condition. If you are more on the taciturn side, then hopefully you'll find someone understanding: but more than that, hopefully you will open up when its right. If you are talkative, you can turn it down, or just accept your very vocal situation.
