My husband told me his favorite part of marriage is basically companionship and cuddling. I asked a question and all men answered the same as well. Why don't women know this??? I grew up thinking men didn't really have feelings or emotions and marriage was just something they did. You know, the ball and chain mentality. Why is this? Knowing that other men actually love being married is such a weight off my shoulders, and it would be for other women as well. Why don't women know this?

It's true, guys have feelings too. We are just wired in a different way. Our basic instinct after puberty is sex sex sex, but then when we find somebody special, then we fall in love, and we look more towards companionship. Problem isthat some men give us all a bad name, and that it isn't really....accepted....in a traditional masculine way to show emotions. Kinda like how most men struggle to figure out what a woman wants.

From a personal point of view (unmarried) I feel the same as your hubby, men do want companionship and someone to spend their life with. Dont know what the cheaters are thinkin, maybe thinkin more with the smaller head than the heart. Im lookin for a woman who is trustworthy and I seem 2 be havin trouble findin 1. Intamacy isnt a problem, being there isnt a problem, devotion isnt a problem but i just seem 2 keep meeting girls that play around. Im looking for a girl that can keep her legs closed when she goes out without me. Having a few drinks is no excuse for comin home the next day n needin a pregnancy test. Where r the women with self respect?

Because Women don't take the time to find out about their man or men in general..It seems they are preoccupied with themselves and what they want, think, need and are troubled when those things are not met..Guys on the other hand can scrugg off things, overlook things, not hear things (lol) and not do things.sometimes on purpose sometimes by accident..Most guys have a heart, feelings and enjoy being pampered, praised, cared about just like women do..So if women treated their man with the same care and respect that they expect then their life would be much happier..Just my opinion and I practice what I preach..Good Luck..

I never thought men had no feelings or emotions. What made you think they were robots? I believe some men have a hard time showing their emotions, but that doesn't mean they have none. They have a heart. I am glad you now see the light. But not all women think that way.

Because men are men. They do not like showing all their emotions and they are not open to sharing their feelings. If a man were to come up to you and put it out on the line that he enjoys being married and all his feelings, you and most of the women in this world would think that he is weak, and that hurts a man's ego.

Sure, we love being married, we hate being taken for granted or ignored physicaly. If women want a happy marriage, they need to remember to tease, kiss, cuddle and show affection outside the bedroom, then be completely wanton in the bedroom. Boredom is the death of marriage so just don't let it happen, you will be happier for it.

depends on how you grow up if your mother and father showed the love on the out side when you are present in a room you may have seen that some men do love to be loved. but most Mom and Dad did not show there feeling to there kids so the kids thing that men are dog and woman are mothers.

Most men aren't so great at communication. And they are unlikely to tell their wife "You know, darling, the thing I love most about us is cuddling and companionship". They are programmed to be more macho than that. Besides, they probably don't give it much thought, they just enjoy it. We are the ones who analyze everything to death. LOL

Because the number one problem with men is they either can't or don't want to communicate. Hence, why we women know very little about what goes on in their heads and we assume the worse!

some women do know. i watched my parents when i was a kid and saw how much my dad loved my mom,and how much she loved him. so i grew up with a romanticized idea that the man i married would love me as much as dad loved mom. i was successful, and i am still happy after seven years. maybe more men should tell their women, then all women would know.
