She acted like he was not a priority in her life She seemed very cool, calm and collected, did her own thing and didn’t have the dependency syndrome (she gave him his space)ģ. She didn’t bombard him with communication, instead she kept her distanceĢ. Here’s what I found out about the “enemy”….ġ. So I decided to spy on the competition! I learned a valuable lesson. The other woman always seemed to get his attention. I’ve been in a situation where I was trying to get attention from a guy who well, as embarrassing as it is dating two women at the same time. Not what I’d recommend in my dating guide to fixing relationship and communication breakdowns. It’s as if the more we try to reach out, the more you just push him away. Now usually most of us women do not handle it well and this is when we start to bombard our partner with emails, calls, texts and any form of communication just to remind them that “hey, I exist and I still love you!” Amazingly this is the worst thing we can do to ourselves as a woman. The worst thing that can happen when dating is when you have a breakdown in communication. After all, every girl needs to know the secret to Fascinating Womanhood !

I must admit if you are a “career” girl, this book might just stir you up and not in the most fun of ways!! Still a good read and teaches ideals we all need to know. So, modern woman or not this is a must read. So why is it that with younger generations marriages do not last? We seem to have thrown the old principles out the window if you ask me.

I mean it’s simple, my grandparents have been together for as long as I can remember and longer. I found it down right old fashioned, however, once I thought pondered long and hard about it I came to the realization that yes, each partner has a place in the relationship.

Now when reading it I felt conflict within my inner self when it came to the ideals of a woman, how to treat a man and acceptance etc. This is a 1963 classic which was recently redone in the sixth edition. I just completed reading this book my Helen Andelin. Silence is golden! 😉Ī true back to basics book this one. One downside though to my silent treatment is that he picked up on it almost immediately, it made him so uncomfortable that his mood also started changing and heading for the floor! Oh well, if that’s what will keep the peace for me then it’s the price I’ll have to pay. I had a less than desirable reaction from my husband yesterday and I decided instead of fight, I’ll give myself two or three days to cool off and then decide if I should talk to him about it or leave if for another time. Words are very powerful hence the reason you can remember things said to you from several years ago. Usually we vent out things which have been bottled up for a while and trust me, that leaves scars in a relationship. If there is one lesson I have learned from dating and being in relationships is that we tend to say a lot of hurtful things to each other when we are upset. It can also help avoid a lot of conflict in your relationship and helps you avoid the gunk that usually comes with arguments. However, when you have a temper as hot as Mexican chillies, perhaps the best thing to do is keep to yourself for a little while until you are ready to have a mature conversation with your partner. I have argued many a time that keeping silent when dating is quite childish.
