hello fellow mylotters. how's love life? well, i have a question here that i wish you answer. this is not pertaining to men in general but why are some men so irrational??? what i mean about this is that why are some not expressive when it comes to being sweet and romantic? why do they say they love you and yet you don't get text messages from them at least 3x a day or see you for 5hours a day, and then they expect you to believe that they love u??? also, they could be busy with other stuffs and forget about u and still expect u to believe that they love u? and if you tell them to end the relationship, they would say "no no" because they love u... isn't that weird and confusing??? or is this guy a bum??? i hope you could express some of your thoughts and feelings on this discussion. happy mylotting. God bless us all on love (^_^) xoxo

you can express everything you have to express but there's one thing for sure, you wouldn't like it if you're a man. you have no idea how hard it is to be a man.

To me men aren't born with a" reasoning" gene. They just need to say "YES DEAR" because the woman is always right.It's a losing battle men fight everyday.The saying goes "I'm the master of the house...what ever my wife says goes!!! The irrationalism I think is, men don't like being wrong and can't admit when they are. Especially by there wife or girlfriend. Men also get defensive when they feel threatened a woman can do a mans job or make more money than they do. As far as romance goes...forget it!So Girls keep your fantasies alive and well cause that's about all you'll get !

Although it might sound irrational - after all I'm a man - a relationship is about trust and feelings, about showing love through words and actions. Subsequently, in essence, you should NOT have to prove your love through a continuous flux of text messages, cards, poems, songs, etc. However, don't blame your boyfriend/husband too much. Showing our love towards a woman it is an art. Some men fail to show it even when this love is pure and strong enough to be shown, because they don't know how to cope with what's inside their souls and minds. Most don't know that when it comes to show love you have to "play" your own music, to let her see your love through actions and behaviours and not necesarilly through words (although words and gestures are of extreme importance). You're partially right. Empty words with not supported by prior actions/behaviours seem to appear empty as anyone could claim anything, but just a few could really offer support to these claims. However, the fact that he is BUSY and he is not texting you 24 times/day it doesn't mean he doesn't love you. Remember that some people recognize or show love in different ways. For example, some people may show their love by kissing and touching, while another person may show love by doing things or just having quality time with the one they love. Probably you and your boyfriend/husband have to fine-tune your music to match your both needs and expectations. I think you two might need to communicate a bit more and to understand each other more. My vision: When you are in the arms you are destined to belong you'll simply feel it. You won't need proofs of any kind. You'll feel it with every single cell of your body and every single though flooding your mind. Have a wonderful day

Maybe it's just that he has a lot of things to do. That's how i am during my past relationships. I don't wanna put my studies in jeopardy so i try to make them understand that i prioritize my studies first. She didn't understand so it didn't work.
