What is the best way for a women to approach a situation in a relationship?

Answer 1

It takes maturity,experience,knowledge and wisdom.An the best way to approach a situation is with a little of all of the above in addition to a bit of compromise.Simply it should be fairly because if it was the other way around we all would like it to be fair to us.

Answer 2

What does it take to be a woman? Primarily a vagina.

What are women's responsibilities? The only one (I can think of) we have that men don't (or cannot share), is to bear children. Most other responsibilities belong to both sexes (unless I've forgotten something).

Women complain...good reason? PEOPLE complain. Sometimes for good reason, sometimes just to biotch.

Best way to approach relationship situation? Depends on the situation. Hopefully all involved will approach it with honesty and an open mind, at the least.

Answer 3

Well, I personally think it takes a lot to be a woman. Since your screen name is Tina, I am assuming you are a woman, which means you probably have had some first-hand experience with some of the challenges women have to meet. I wouldn't say it necessarily takes more to be a woman than to be a man, but our struggles are different for sure. Here we are, trying to get ahead in male-dominated careers, yet still trying to be pretty and feminine as our social conventions dictate. On top of that, add family-life pressures, such as social pressure to get married, have children, do a good job raising them while still trying to build that career, deal with post-pregnancy weight loss, be a good wife, be a good cook, be a good role model for your children, etc. And now, even though it is an over-talked-about subject, add on the physical and emotional changes we have to undergo each month, like we're the Incredible Hulk or something.

As for your other question about the best way for a woman to approach a situation in a relationship, I am guessing you mean from a communication standpoint. It is scientifically documented that women and men have different argumentation styles- women are hard-wired to process information in a very complex, roundabout way, which causes them to read meaning into conversations that may or may not have really been intentional, whereas men tend to be more direct and linear in communicating their meaning. For example, if a man says, "I hope we get to eat soon," he means he hopes they get to eat soon, but a woman may interpret that statement to mean, "Where's my dinner?" or something similar. Understanding these communication differences can really help avoid unnecessary arguments. When arguing, always try to see things from the other person's point of view and refrain from using qualifiers such as "always," "never," etc. ("You never say you love me anymore!" etc.) Also, don't bring up unrelated events or past arguments when arguing-stick to the topic at hand. If you are arguing about him coming home late and you somehow go off on a tangent about how much you hate his mother, he will forget the original point and just start fighting because you've hurt his feelings. Best of luck!

Answer 4

How can you ask such a question? What are women's responsibilities? I'd hate to think what this world would be like without women, whether they complain or not. Probably they have every right to complain. But judge ye not, lest ye be judged. The responsibilities in a relationship are 50/50. Don't put all the burden on women, fer gosh sake!

Answer 5

men say they are rational creatures ( i beg to differ) they are childish, sensitive creatures who tend to get their feelings hurt worst than a women when their women comes to them with constructive critism or just plan critism about them, the relationship or just about anything. Men like to think they are problem solvers also...so when their woman comes to them and says, "Honey, everything isn't copasetic." They take it personal...they all deal in different ways.

So the best way to approach an "issue", "situation", "SNAFU" or whatever you want to call it you must be calm and little humble. Don't fly off the handle and start yelling at him...it confuses him b/c he "thought" everything was status quo (they're oblivious trust me). So if you use the phrase "We need to talk....." it immediately triggers fear in the heart of the man (literally lol) and then they become defensive. Try using the words "Honey, can we speak for a moment....." it's a sneak attack and their guard isn't up. They're more likely to listen. If that doesn't work a few days later go straight for the jugglar and us the phrase "we need to talk..." that'll get his attention if he's a smart man lol.

Answer 6

What situation?
Gosh, I need to do my nails.There due...
Gee, my desk is messy...
You know, I think you can read all the directions and guidelines on how to be this and that just about anywhere. But, I think your best bet would be the bible. You can pick up a book written by a christian author although, I honestly believe that would only be a personal perspective thru personal experience. The bible is only one perspective, it will never confuse a soul for it's faithful and never changing scriptures, rules, and ways of being...

Answer 7

Women should learn everything they can about not only themselves, but about men. What they want/need, etc....

Women should be ADULTS and not act like spoiled little girls.

Women should never give themselves (emotionally or otherwise) to anyone indiscriminately, but carefully choose a MAN and then be devoted to him ONLY even when things are tough.

Women should let men do what they do best, and expect that their man will let them do what they do best, too.

Women should NEVER use sex as a bargaining tool, or a punishment.

Answer 8

I am a woman and I am responsible to support and raise my kids. I have rsponsibilities to my boss at work and to my colleagues at work. I am divorced, and don't know if I will ever get back into a relationship, because frankly, I enjoy not having to answer to anyone. If I want to buy something, and it fits my budget, I just buy it. If I want to go on a trip, I just do it. If I come home from work and just want to order a pizza I do it. No one controlling or trying to control me. I love it.

Answer 9

I think it comes down to the guy. Some guys are easy to approach others will think that you are just bitching or that what you say doesn't really matter. I think it takes time to find the right way to approach your guy that will cause a positive change and not make him just get deffensive. I haven't figured it out w/ mine yet. :(

Answer 10

calm and with love and when you ask a question of a man let him talk dont answer for him I use to do that and my honey hated it so I stopped and things are way better
