I have been asked why I don’t post more my internal thoughts and feelings. I think this will explain why I guard my thoughts and statements more so now than in the past.
When men tell each other something it is usually high level. Brief short answers that gets the point across. Unknowingly I seem to forget this when talking to my girl friends. More specifically my two wives. I think that a clear statement covers it all. Oh how wrong am I. It just leads to more questions.
It seems that saying something high level and thinking that conversation is over with a woman is not that easy. Seems that I need to explain it more. And than some more. And even more.
So I posted a statement and both my wives asking questions about it. Well let me rephrase that. I had one of them ask. I mentioned to the other and she said I would want to know the answer too. So it ended up being a half hour conversation about one thing that I stated that, in my opinion, didn’t think was relevant for explaining in detail.
Don’t get me wrong. I love them both that they are open and express there feeling and thoughts. I just forgot how easily it that it can become complicated. Sometimes I just forget how complicated women are. Both mentally and physically. (will cover physical in another blog).
Women seem to need all the details. Something that balances there mind and emotions when questions arise. If things are unclear they can over think it. Or worse jump to conclusions that aren’t really there. Plus if you texting and not in person than it can even be worse since tone and body language is missing. Makes for some long discussions sometimes since texting is not the best medium for emotional talks.
And I know that this is normal but when you are involved with multiple women on different levels it can get more complicated. One may understand what was stated but the other may not. So it becomes hard to balance emotions for two women not to mention the few other that I also talk too . Plus if you like to talk, which is my one fault, than it can get you into trouble.
So keep in mind that you men should think before you speak. Could save you lots of time before having to explain yourself. Also helps to ensure your partner doesn’t make any assumptions since you didn’t fill in the gaps fully.
And for the record I will be getting a talking to after they read this post. I am use to it by now.
