WHY WON'T HE TALK?

Why is it that wives feel their husbands can’t communicate? This really frustrates women, that men can’t talk with them like they do with their female friends.? First off, as Allison Armstrong says, men aren’t hairy women. I learned from John. Gray, author of Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, that when women talk, they increase their serotonin while men decrease their testosterone. So, it’s no wonder why men communicate with short sentences and then walk away to think, and women just go on and on talking.
Something else women do is fill silence with talking.? Typically, the reason for the guy not saying anything right away is because he is trying to figure out what to say. If she doesn’t wait for his response, she will disrupt him from talking. Ask your question and then wait for him to respond, even if it takes a while.
I’d like to hear from you, what annoys you in your marriage????
