jbibiza: In the Mars/Venus book... one of the chapters is about men retreating to their caves, and it´s a behaviour that most women don´t understand and often with their reaction push a man even further away. Being of the cave retreating behavior myself I understand it pretty well, and the worst thing a person can do at this stage is to push... that is a pretty sure way to end the relationship. If you remain available but give the "retreater" some space... well I usually edge my way back out and start nuzzeling again... and I think most men are the same.
Ah, another smart woman.
I agree.
They run to their caves, to think about things, or they go to the pub, order a pint, look at it, mates will ask 'Fight with the Mrs?' They nod and then talk about AC Milan winning...
We wimmen, we talk, call our friends/mother's and wail down the phone...
Not me, I sit quietly, wait for the storm to pass, then when he walks through the door, say 'hello darling, what would you like to eat'
If he has any sense, he will say 'you'
