A Healthy relationship is one thing everyone tries to get and keep but there are a lot of things we ignore while in a relationship, came across some tips online on how to understand Men in how they treat their relationships, this is good but trust me it does not apply to all men. But a point or two can be very helpful in dealing with you partner either still dating or married.
Find it Below...
Men will talk about their feelings: It may be easier for your man to talk about feelings indirectly. Ask what he'd do during a romantic weekend. Or what he thought the first time he met you. His answers will reveal how he feels and bring you closer. Even though some men do not like to talk about their feelings you always have to learn to read between the lines, this is something we all tend to ignore a lot.
Men Say "I Love You" With Actions: Again some men prefer to express their feelings through actions rather than words. Your guy may say "I love you" by just holding your hands unconsciously and not saying anything, may send you a text message even though you are sitting next to him or a funny picture he has seen that will interest you also as a married couple he could fix things around the house, tidying up the kitchen when you are away at work or just having a very long and tiring day, or even taking out the trash, anything that makes your world a better place without actually saying the words.
Men Take Commitment Seriously: Men have a reputation for being afraid to commit. But the evidence suggests men take their relationship or marriage seriously. They may take longer to commit because they want to make sure they are on-board for good, and with the right person. In a survey of currently married men, 90% say they would marry the same woman again. Again you have to be conscious of his actions so you don't end up with one of those guys that pretend to want to take it seriously, you always know except you ignore the signs.
He Really Is Listening: When you're listening to someone talk, you probably pipe in with a "yes" or "I see" every now and then. It's your way of saying, "I'm listening." But some guys don't do this. Just because a man isn't saying anything doesn't mean he's not listening. He may prefer to listen quietly and think about what you're saying.
Shared Activities Form Bonds: Men strengthen their relationships primarily through shared activities more than by sharing thoughts or feelings. For many men, activities like sports and sex make them feel closer to their partner.
Men Need Time for Themselves: While shared activities are important, men also need time for themselves. Whether your guy enjoys golf, gardening, or working out at the gym, encourage him to pursue his hobbies, while you make time for your own. When both partners have space to nurture their individuality, they have more to give to each other.
Men Let Go Faster Than Women: Women tend to remember negative experiences longer and may have lingering feelings of stress, anxiety, or sadness. In contrast, men are less likely to dwell on unpleasant events and tend to move on more quickly. So while you may still want to talk about last night's argument, your guy may have already forgotten about it. not all guys do, some guys never tell you what the problem is and just keep it in deep in their minds and act strangely rather than talk about what the problem is.
Men Respond to Appreciation: Showing appreciation for your guy can make a big difference in the way he acts. Take parenting. Studies show that fathers are more involved in care-giving when their wives value their involvement and see them as competent.
Men Think About Sex ... A Lot: OK, so maybe this one is no secret. The majority of men under age 60 think about sex at least once a day, compared with only a quarter of women. And that's not all. Men fantasize about sex nearly twice as often as women do, and their fantasies are much more varied. They also think more about casual sex than women do. But thinking is not the same as doing.
Men Find Sex Significant: It's a myth that most men think sex is just sex. For many, sex is a very important act between two committed people. And just like most women, men find sexual intimacy to be most satisfying in the context of a committed relationship. One reason is that long-term partners know how to please one another better than strangers do.
Guys Aren't Always Up for Sex: Men, much to many women's surprise, aren't always in the mood for sex. Just like women, men are often stressed by the demands of work, family, and paying the bills. And stress is a big libido crusher. When a guy says, "not tonight," it doesn't mean he's lost interest in you. He just means he doesn't want to have sex right then.
Men May Stray When Needs Aren't Met: If a man doesn't feel loved and appreciated in his relationship, he may turn elsewhere for satisfaction. For one man, that may mean burying himself in work. Another may develop a fixation on sports or video games. And some men cheat. To avoid this, partners need to work together to meet each other's needs.
Hope it helps all those struggling to understand their relationship and give all the answers needed.
