I think we 'read' to much into what they are saying.

Sometimes we have to remember that they are simpler creatures than we are.

I don't mean this to be an insult, what I mean is that they have th basics, and we have some much more complex needs.

I am always frustrated with guys...friends DH whoever, they don't think like we do...they are pretty unileteral.

Re: Why are guys so hard to understand what they mean?

I think it's because generally speaking, guys say exactly what they mean, and women don't always do that, so women end up reading into a man's simple answer when really there's nothing much to read into.

Re: Why are guys so hard to understand what they mean?

But sometimes it can work to your advantage... like any instance where you can play all cute and go 'ohhhhh I didnt understand what you meant.' Sorry, cant think of any particular examples.

Re: Why are guys so hard to understand what they mean?

I think men and women are completely different as communicators. Women often talk to vent, or talk to talk--generally men talk with a purpose--have to talk to so and so about fantasy football, whatever. My friends and I could talk for hours about nothing--or analyze the actions of one guy for days. When I talk to FH and complain about something, he tries to find a solution or make it better (probably to shurt me up!)--I just want to vent...Men are from Mars...
