5 Ways to Communicate With Women

When talking about couples, everyone seems to know that communication is the key to a successful relationship. Nevertheless, many people break up because of the lack of communication, so how does this happen and what can you do to avoid it?

Men are aware that communicating with their partner is very important, however, often, the only thing they are after during a dispute is victory. They want to “win” the fight so that their pride does not get hurt. Women are also many times making the same mistake even if most of them have the capacity to actually solve a conflict efficiently.

First of all, you have to make time to talk to her, whether while having dinner, or cooking together or travelling. If you can find time for sports and sex, you can also find some time to talk to her about whatever you like. Do not be afraid to voice your opinion if you are dissatisfied with something or if you wish to improve something in your relationship. Just let her know that you love her and you are happy, but there are also some things that could work better. The important thing is to make a joint effort to listen to and understand each other.

Secondly, you need to be an active listener, not a passive one. You should let her say everything she needs to say, listening carefully and focusing on her gestures. What is she telling you? You can also figure that out from her body language and the tonality she is using. Do not feel that if you let her talk as long as she needs to, your masculinity has to suffer; it is just a proof that you are a mature adult capable of understanding her and allowing her to express her feelings.

Nonverbal communication is also very important. She is basically telling you how she feels through gestures or facial expressions. If you pay attention to the way she moves her hands and looks at you, you can definitely tell when she is angry or sad. The only thing you have to do is make things better as quickly as possible to show her that you care about her feelings.

Showing her that you care even amidst a fight is one of the wisest things you can do. You can stroke her hair, put your palm on her cheek or tell her you love her. She might not appreciate the gesture during the fight, but she will get the message and realize that you do care about her.

There are many pieces of advice to be given when it comes to communicating with your partner, but maybe the easiest way to realize how communication works is by understanding what you should not do. To begin with, do not pretend you listen to her. You might fool her for a while, but it will never help your relationship. Do not try to use everything she says, against her so that you can “win” the fight. Do not contradict everything she says, it just shows you do not care about anything else than showing her that she is never right. And most of all do not act like an insensitive jerk that does not care about anything she has to say. This will certainly ruin your relationship and make her hate you.

This may not completely change or rectify the way in which you communicate, but it can definitely help you understand what it needs to build a bridge between you two and strengthen your relationship.
