Traditionally a woman is that person who is to be more compromise in a family relation. At the same time a working woman gets less time for her natural and traditional duties – devoting time to home, giving birth and raising the children.
Once I had an opportunity to communicate with a foreigner who shared with an interesting theory. He asked, why people divorce. And answered, the matter is they do not speak similar language. What languages did he mean?
Negativism is a part of an every day life. Negative people, negative feelings, negative conduct… Is it something that a person need? The family coaches suggest another scenario of a life – without those things which make a life unhappy.
Compromising in every life situation is an ideal way to solve the problems. It concerns every sphere of a family life. Stubbornness and silliness are not the friends of a happy marriage.
One more stereotype is "a woman needs more communication than a man". Simply a man and a woman understand the meaning of communication in a different way. A woman is sure that chatting is communication. A man values the content, not the form. So, for example, when he is dining and she is telling him about everything in the world, a woman thinks that it is the needed communication. A man considers it to be just a feminine twaddle. But if she starts speaking about his new job or a new article about sex positions, well, it turns to be the communication. In her turn, a woman gets pleasure of the process itself.
A woman uses the communication as an opportunity to relax, in such a way she tries to keep an emotional connection with her partner. Perhaps, at the same time he thinks "When will you keep silence at last?".
Anyway, male attitude to the chatting is very different as well. I have a male friend who used to ask about everything in the world and share with his own opinions. The most interesting thing is that he can do it for hours. My personal record is five hours in a raw.
