This is every relationship between a man and a woman. Our man brains like to fix things, that is how we survive.

Sometimes you should fix things, if you can...if you are hurting someone.

What? Sorry, I didn't catch that, I was trying to remember whether there's enough beer in the fridge to make it to Friday.

Men fix things. We don't get emotional about it. That's what we do. If you want someone to listen and agree with you then meet other women who can relate. Maybe laugh about how men are so different. Truthfully, you should listen more to the guy. He probably can solve your issues with reason and experience. It might not be the emotional shoulder you want to cry on but not many guys provide that. Most female problems are not real problems just a lack of experience and balls. Don't feel helpless, it's a turn off.

OMG, please make it stop.I see getting into the Merc commenting section is hard. I I was correcting my wording when I had something running under my lines. It was pink shading. Why I ask myself is my profile gone?? The comments,gone! The likes I give myself gone. My two friends gave me likes when they were alerted. This is kind of what your rant sounds like. I/Anonie, get to the fucking point.

The whole 'man' part kind of makes no sense, unless you're trying to actually get a specific person to read this and to that I say: Take off your tutu and strap on some ovaries. Woman up and realize that only YOU have the responsibility to deal with your feelings. It is no one else's job at any point, even if he's your bf. Maybe that's his way of helping? Maybe when you approach him and say, "I have a problem" he reasonably things you are asking for help? Maybe you need to tell him you just need to vent? Maybe YOU need to be more clear with your feelings? Maybe I could be wrong, but I don't think I am.

I/A, wait until he finds out you came here for advice. That might be a deal breaker. We all have to be validated; I'm sure he has to have had some times in his life, he made huge mistakes. ^mtngoatz seems to have narrowed in to your problem. If you do not like the comments here, you only have to report the comments you don't like. It's a win/win. Remember, this site is having some major changes because someone broke the rules. You sound like you fit right in. If he is not wearing ear plugs, he still loves you,I guess. Never ask someone to make you right. You are right. Your own special little neurotic self.

"I want to take without giving! I want to speak without having to listen back! Ugh, relationships are hard!!!"

I really could use a sandwich.
