So why do women have so many problems communicating with men?<\/p>\n<p>Simply put: we expect them to communicate and process information like we do. In fact, they do not.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Stop Assuming<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Way too often I assume I know how my loved one will react in a situation. If the kitchen is dirty and I&#8217;m extremely busy with work and other obligations, surely he will pitch in and do it, right? Wrong. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2010\/05\/stop-worrying-about-men.html\/\" target=\"_self\">Men, typically, are not mind readers<\/a><\/strong>. While women can be very empathetic and see the big picture, men do not. There are exceptions, I know. If you&#8217;re assuming he will just know, you&#8217;re wrong. Talk to him bluntly. Tell him what you want or need.<\/p>\n<p>\r\n<div style=\"display:none\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/admin.brightcove.com\/js\/BrightcoveExperiences.js\"><\/script>\r\n<object id=\"myExperience628277826001\" class=\"BrightcoveExperience\">\r\n  <param name=\"bgcolor\" value=\"#FFFFFF\" \/>\r\n  <param name=\"width\" value=\"360\" \/>\r\n  <param name=\"height\" value=\"305\" \/>\r\n  <param name=\"playerID\" value=\"1638912460001\" \/>\r\n  <param name=\"playerKey\" value=\"AQ,AAAAEX0RRcE~,dfsdf2unse-SQh9aFG6h1thRWPE8bRnN\" \/>\r\n  <param name=\"isVid\" value=\"true\" \/>\r\n  <param name=\"dynamicStreaming\" value=\"true\" \/>\r\n   \r\n  <param name=\"@videoPlayer\" value=\"628277826001\" \/>\r\n<\/object>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">brightcove.createExperiences();<\/script><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Compartmentalize Information<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/psychics\/Hern-5239.aspx\" target=\"_self\">Psychic Hern ext. 5239<\/a> <\/strong>explains in the video, men chunk information into boxes or categories. Even <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/psychics\/Michael-9604.aspx\" target=\"_self\">Michael ext. 9604<\/a><\/strong> stated something similar in his <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.californiapsychics.com\/blog\/2011\/04\/the-male-mind-what-is-he-thinking.html\/\" target=\"_self\">video on the male mind<\/a><\/strong>. Most men think in a logical manner. Women think a lot of things at once. Currently, I&#8217;m writing this article and planning what I want for dinner (for the next week!). So shift your\u00a0consciousness, and break down what you want or need him to do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Put it Simply and Be Straightforward <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>How many times have you just needed to vent and your significant other tries to solve all your problems? In my experience, men are problem-solvers. At the beginning of your conversation, you probably thought he would just know that you needed him to listen. That was an assumption.\u00a0I now tell my boyfriend when I just want to vent, no solutions, just venting. He listens attentively, and I feel better.<\/p>\n<p>Also, give your man the\u00a0courtesy\u00a0of what you&#8217;re thinking and explain your emotions as logically as you can. When I&#8217;m overwhelmed, stressed and my hormones are a bit out of control, I state it! I don&#8217;t apologize, unless I&#8217;m truly being a class act of meanness, but I let him know what&#8217;s going on in my head. It helps him understand your &#8220;moodiness&#8221; and removes the mystery of understanding your mind.<\/p>\n<div style=\"border-top: 1px dotted #c9d9d9;border-bottom: 1px dotted #c9d9d9;margin: 10px 0px;padding: 10px 4px;font-weight: bold\"><strong>Who is <em>your <\/em>true love?<\/strong> Talk to a psychic and find out. <!-- ADD COPY ABOVE -->Call <span style=\"font-size: 16px;color: #d33d26\">1.800.573.4830<\/span> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.californiapsychics.com\/c\/c.aspx?lid=110524\">choose your psychic now. <\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Men think much differently from women.
