8 mistakes men make

so wad are the 8 mistakes men make?
Mistake #1: Not Listening
The Fix: Three simple words are magic for women, “Tell me more.” And if he really wants to sweeten the deal? “I’m interested.”

Mistake #2: Not Offering Help
The Fix: First, guys need to look up from the TV and see what their women are doing. Most likely, she's not relaxing. Is she doing chores? It’s time to pitch in. “Is there something I can do?”

Mistake #3: Thinking Men and Women are Alike
The Fix: He needs to learn about your needs. What makes you happy? How can he support you? and “Opening up that line of communication will show almost instant results,”

Mistake #4: Misunderstanding the ‘Silent Treatment’
Guys think they’re being punished when their gal gives them the cold shoulder. In reality, the silence means she’s hurt and can’t speak
t
he Fix: When a woman is quiet, a man needs to ask what’s wrong. He needs to check on his partner and relationship.

Mistake #5: Failing to Communicate
It’s a common complaint women have about men: Why won’t he just tell me what he’s thinking?
The Fix: He has to speak up.

Mistake #6: Thinking That ‘Physically Present Is Enough’The Fix: It’s about the three Ts: talking, touching and tuning in. Men need to make contact with a woman for her to feel intimacy.
“Unless there's S.O.S. – skin on skin – contact or eye contact, it doesn’t count,” Love says.

Mistake #7: Feeling Hurt by a Woman’s Distractions
The Fix: Men should hold her hand when talking to her. “If he’s touching her in some way, he’ll be the loudest thing in her environment,”

Mistake #8: Not Getting How We Operate
The Fix: Women should understand why men behave that way, Armstrong says, and the same goes for your guy. Then the realization may help him change his behavior.
