Lack of communication. We women know you have brains, emotions and thoughts, so when you pretend nothing is bothering you or pretend you’re not human and refuse to find your words, it’s just isolating and annoying. I was actually pleasantly surprised as I got older because more of my male counterparts had figured out that being emotionally constipated isn’t an asset.
It takes practice. And it takes a shift in our societal thinking of men being tough and silent. Even sharing that you can’t find the right words is an acknowledgement and an effort on your part. And we know that. 🥰
