“IT’S JUST NOT THE SAME ANYMORE!”
Part 2
For the MEN, today…
Okay, yesterday was all about how you MEN can make someone in your life feel special.
TODAY, it’s all about how the WOMEN can make the men in your life feel special .
I’ve already talked about the differences in the thoughts, habits, feelings, emotions, & priorities between MEN & WOMEN, yesterday.
(go to my BLOGS homepage at: www.dailyadversitysupport.com click on the “It’s just not the same anymore” Part 1)
Now, it’s time to ‘let the dogs out’, ‘let the cat out of the bag’, or how ever you would like to phrase it.
So, LADIES LISTEN UP, this BLOG is FOR YOU!
The MYTHS are, that men:
- can’t think for themselves.
- have a one tracked mind.
- don’t have a sensitive side.
- are all about Beer & his buddies.
- don’t think before they do something.
- think the entire house is the clothes hamper.
- sex is always at the top of his list.
- have select hearing.
- think of you last.
- are as messy as a child.
Believe it or not, most of these Myths are NOT true.
Just as with women, men have an entirely different “wiring” process with their thinking, priorities, habits, feelings & emotions, than do women.
Men develop with more “learned” behaviors than women.
However, that is not to say, men are also not adept to other ways of thinking, priorities, habits, feelings & emotions.
Deep down, men DO want to do the ‘right’ thing, but they may not be “AWARE” of what to do.
So, let me offer some thoughts to the WOMEN, of what YOU can do.
HOW TO MAKE SOMEONE IN YOUR LIFE FEEL SPECIAL
(For the women, to do for the men)
Ask yourself this question every day: “What’s it like to be with me?”
If your married, keep the bedroom ‘tastefully’ decorated & free of clutter, with him in mind.
Bake homemade cookies, for him to take to work.
Buy him new socks & underwear on ordinary days, not on holidays or as birthday gifts.
If you have kids, help them be excited about Dad coming home.
Trade babysitting with friends, so you have a night at home alone.
Try to be home (work schedule permitting) & off the phone when he gets home.
Try to be up in the morning, when he leaves for work, activities, or planned projects.
Try to go to bed at the same time he does.
Be understanding if he falls asleep in the recliner/couch, after a hard work day.
If he takes a lunch to work, or to an activity, pack it for him.
Watch his favorite TV sporting events, with him.
Admire him for his strength & significance.
Develop a genuine interest in his work & hobbies.
When he gets home, give him space to first relax.
Be as concerned about your looks, as you were when you were dating (if you’re married).
If you’re still dating, you should be concerned about your looks.
On your day off, comb your hair & add a little makeup.
Stick to your budget.
Compliment him in front of your friends, his & your parents, the kids.
Keep his favorite snacks & drinks on hand.
Do NOT interrupt or correct him, when he’s telling a story. It’s his story.
Understand be supportive when he wants to spend time enjoying sports or hobbies with his friends.
Keep lovemaking fresh & exciting. Remember he has more frequent desires than you have.
Randomly write short sweet note or draw a funny picture & leave them in his lunch, toolbox, on his desk, in his car or in his pocket.
These never get old & always warm his heart.
DO NOT ASSUME HE KNOWS!! HE DOESN’T…
So deal with it
Ladies, you are smart, you are very perceptive, you are an expert at multi-tasking.
I don’t need to tell you that you will never, never understand men, anymore than they will ever understand us.
It’s a known scientific fact, that men & women use vastly different parts of their brains every moment of every day.
Hence, when I share with you, that men & women are “wired” differently, this is exactly what I mean.
You cannot change a man, anymore than they can change you.
So, let’s just understand that we’re from different thought processes, accept it & compliment each others presence, regardless of what you’d like to think.
Ladies, you are now forewarned about men,
What you choose to do with this information & list of suggestions I have, is ENTIRELY up to you. GOD SPEED.
“Channel your personal feelings & energy, to things you CAN influence & control. Yourself”….
See you tomorrow….

Congrats on your 24 years of great perseverance! Thank you Rhonda.
My bestie has been married for the last 18 years. They’ve had their up and downs. Just like everybody else in a relationship. Yet they still at the end of the day are able to negotiate their time for each other. And that’s what I love about those two. Thanks Linda
That interaction at the end the day is key & if others would heed the advice, get other themselves & do just as that, there would be a lot of happier people. Thank you Dave for sharing.
A great post once again Linda. I have been married for 34 years so have worked it out pretty well. I have never thought of my husband and any of the stereo type lables. We do a lot of little things for each other. Are we always perfect? No but it clearly works,. Thanks Linda.
You are such a breath of fresh air Sue. You found the key ingredients in a relationship & have been it work for 34 years, bless you. You’re a good couple. Thank you for sharing your secret.
