OMG tell me about it!!! I cannot STAND the whole "disappearing into his man cave" thing, they won't tell you WHY they are in there brooding, refuse to answer questions or talk and basically ignore you while they are "in their stupid cave" and after a few days they come out and refuse to talk about why they were in there and look at you like you're retarded for even asking! UGH! Men!


Perhaps, then, it would help not to demand that they talk about it just because you want to.

Women customarily want to say things like "nothing" and "it's fine" when they don't want to talk, so.. what's the problem?

I have a number of things I've never told my wife because she, quite frankly, does not need to know the gory details (and no, I am not talking about anything that involves our relationship).

At the risk of being a traitor to my kind, assuming a woman doesn't want to talk about it when she uses those phrases is going to put you in the doghouse. (Which is also why we don't get it right away when a man doesn't want to talk about things...if we were acting like that, we'd expect you to come talk about it.)

Here's a general tip:
Human beings are all **** up in the head. Men and women may tend to get **** up in different ways, but they're human, and therefore all **** up.

I don't know when I've agreed with Talya more.

This is a quote from the worst offender, "If you don't understand my silences, how can you understand when I speak." WTF!
In response to this, my ex-wife used to say to me: "If you want to know what's going on in my life, read my blog" - I **** you not.

Shel, that is one of the saddest things I have heard lately. Makes very good explanation why she is your ex-wife.
