A lot of the stress, frustration, and pointless arguments can be avoided if men make an effort to understand women. Coexisting with a woman can be quite manageable; however, ignorance, immaturity, and unrealistic expectations can lead a man to perceive his cherished fiancée or wife as a monster!
Here are some behaviors of women that may come across as challenging, though they are not difficult to comprehend if you take the time to understand us.
1. WOMEN OFTEN FEEL IRRITATED AND ANGRY PRIOR TO THEIR MENSTRUATION, which may result in them yelling, screaming, or even throwing objects at you. Remember, you are not the source of her frustration; it’s her cycle. It’s immature to argue with her, raise your voice, or insult her when she isn’t feeling well. Stay calm. Respond to her calmly. Offer a kind gesture like holding her hand or wrapping your arms around her. Give her plenty of hugs; women appreciate physical affection during this time (though physical touch is usually reserved for married couples).
2. SHE SOMETIMES FEELS MORE SEXUAL: Her cycle can bring emotional fluctuations. If you’re dating and she’s showering you with hugs, kisses, and affection, be cautious. This is likely not her usual state of mind. Help her avoid temptation by stepping away from it. If you’re married, respond positively to her advances. Women may seek physical intimacy as a way to soothe themselves during this time. Understand that if she is getting close, touching you, or giving you affectionate pecks, she’s sending you a clear signal. Often, women don’t explicitly ask for intimacy, and it takes courage to do so.
3. SHE FEELS FRUSTRATED AND ANGRY when you repeatedly hurt her feelings with habits you refuse to change.
5. SHE HAS MOOD SWINGS. One moment she can be laughing, the next crying, and later on being exceptionally sweet. Women experience emotional fluctuations frequently. This might be annoying to you because you may not experience emotions in the same way, but remember this is temporary.
6. WOMEN ARE INFLUENCED BY WORDS: This is why many naive women fall for charlatans. If you are dating, avoid overly romantic comments that might excite her. Saying “I love you” is sufficient; “I admire you greatly” is appropriate. Statements like “your smile could make me faint” are excessive, while “your curves are irresistible” is far too much. If you truly love her, avoid phrases that could be too provocative.
In marriage, however, expressing romance to make her feel desired for intimacy is crucial. A few sweet sentences can set the perfect mood for the evening!
7. WOMEN APPRECIATE BEING CARED FOR: Even if she’s wealthy, a woman enjoys it when you treat her. It shows your love and care for her. This isn’t about greed or laziness; it’s merely a fundamental part of who we are. We are designed to receive affection and support from our partners, and we feel cherished that way.
8. WOMEN WANT HELP WITH HOUSEHOLD TASKS: Your involvement in activities that are important to her makes you incredibly attractive. When you support her in these areas, she will treasure you forever!
9. WOMEN DRESS TO SUIT THE OCCASION, NOT JUST NEXT TO THEIR CLOSET: A woman might claim she has nothing to wear for an event, despite having numerous pairs of shoes. What she really means is that she doesn’t have the perfect fit for her outfit. Whereas you may get by with one pair of shoes for all occasions, women often require options. It’s not about extravagance; this is simply how we are.
10: WOMEN REQUIRE MORE TIME TO GET READY, which can lead to delays when you’re supposed to go out together. Allow her some extra time to prepare. If you’re planning to leave by 10am, give her ample time by telling her to be ready by 9am while you get ready at your usual pace. While men might take 15 minutes to dress, women often need about 40 minutes for makeup, wardrobe adjustments, choosing coordinating accessories, etc. Rushing her may ruin her day, so be patient and wise in your approach.
11. WOMEN ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR APPEARANCE, so refrain from criticizing her physical insecurities. Women often fall deeply for men who appreciate their beauty. For instance, I used to feel self-conscious about my teeth until my husband told me he loved my smile. Now, I proudly display my teeth!
12. WOMEN DETEST DISHONESTY: When you lie, cheat, or deceive her, you lose her respect and value in her eyes.
13. WOMEN HAVE INTUITIONS and can often sense when something is amiss. Even if she can’t articulate it logically, she might have a gut feeling about a decision that could lead to significant consequences. While she may not always be right, she often is. Men who aspire to succeed should heed their wives’ advice before embarking on ventures or investments. Take time to pray and seek guidance before proceeding. Many men have faced tremendous losses or harm after ignoring their wives’ warnings.
I could elaborate on this indefinitely, but time is limited. Understanding a woman takes knowledge and effort.
The Bible advises, “dwell with her according to KNOWLEDGE.” Consider reading insightful books on understanding women; it can significantly enhance your relationship.
Women are remarkable! Once you grasp our nature, your spiritual, emotional, sexual, financial, and psychological life will transform for the better. We can bring abundant peace and success into your life!
