There are assumptions that people's disadvantages do not differ by gender. However, some traits and peculiarities are more common in men and others in women. This time in the article we will look not only at the most commonly observed shortcomings of men, but also try to find an explanation for them, taking into account the psychology of men. It is possible that this list of 8 shortcomings will allow women to look at men's shortcomings more softly and with a greater dose of patience.
The shortcomings of men that most often disappoint women are as fallows:
1. Escape from problems
Women are often criticized by men for not being able to deal with sudden problems. This is especially true for men who are weak in character. The time comes when a man literally sinks into himself, expressing a negative attitude towards others. It seems to women that at this point he is simply "leaving" the problem, "putting" the solution on the woman's shoulders.
However, from a psychological point of view, this is not the case. The man does not "step aside" from the problem, but he is really working hard on making a decision. He is forced to think carefully about the situation in order to make the right and most rational decision. It takes time and silence for him. It is arranged in his psyche, a man is unable to make a decision and think about it at the same time.
It is difficult for a woman to understand this, because in such situations she is in a hurry to announce the problem out loud, to pronounce it, and in the course of this verbal process the solution to the problem comes as if by itself.
For men, things are different. The decision is made internally. A man needs an opportunity to think about everything and invent big thoughts. Take your time, arm yourself with patience, and then you will find the right solution to the problem.
2. Failure to fulfill promises
Every man wants to feel like a "superman", to bring clouds from the sky to his beloved woman. Sometimes women are simply so obsessed that they demand the immediate fulfillment of their desires. And the moment when a positive attitude or response is not received immediately, it flows out in anger, dissatisfaction, accusing all men of slowness and inability to deliver.
The craziest thing that can happen to a man is if his woman, who would make him a happy magician, guardian and benefactor, accuses him of weakness and helplessness. It is a bit childish desire - to always be on top and rush with promises, as if victory over difficulties had already been won and the prize in the form of a woman had already found her hero. That's why he's in a hurry to promise.
Only a very brave man will have enough masculinity to admit that he is not a magician, that many things he simply cannot afford to do, no matter how he wants to. This would be useful for women, who often ask their men to do the impossible. Don't make your husband lie about what he might try to do to keep the image of a "superman" in your eyes.
3. Lying
Sometimes it is smarter to lie than to tell the truth. Men have more than once encountered unpredictable reactions of women to the true words, so they have already understood the strangeness of these women's nature - the desire to hear not true answers, but convenient and comfortable for themselves. Women often ask questions that in themselves make them reluctant to answer them at all. And don't give God an answer otherwise.
That is why, in order to escape from such a wedding, men, knowing their wives well, learn to lie. Everyone loves to be deceived, believing that the deceived by lies has been made happier, calmer and more successful. And this is especially true of the weaker sex, who is known to love with ears. How much pasta can be hung on women's headphones, just waiting for these pasta! Often we point out to men their fine knowledge of women's psychology, and many of them really use these peculiarities of women very wisely.
4. Clutter and negligence
Not teaching or unwillingness to follow one's appearance, one's apartment layout, coziness. A lot of family conflicts are caused by the negligence of men. Socks and other things thrown around the house, unpleasant foot odor, greasy hair, unshaven beard - all these details that seem like stuff to men can make a woman reluctant to have sex with this man forever.
Are there any reasons for male negligence? Many believe that they are the result of women's misconduct. Moms and grandmothers who have accustomed their sons and grandsons not to collect anything behind them, cleaning everything themselves, collecting toys, laying the bed, hanging school clothes neatly on the hanger and putting them in the closet. And here is the result - the child has grown big, and after him everything must be taken care of, as after the baby. However, this is not the real reason for the specific shortage of men.
Men just aren't particularly worried about little things like tossed socks or uncut toenails. And not because they are savages, but because they don't have time to get caught up in what they think are trivia. Their brains are busy with more interesting and global things. For example, the global crisis, the political situation in the country, fluctuations in the dollar and the discovery of new stars. Their heads may be overwhelmed by all these components of a man's life that they simply do not notice, more precisely, do not distract from anything else. Women must take this into account.
5. Helplessness in emotional matters
Men are designed to be too vulnerable in the inner world, which in turn leads to them not being able to judge healthily in times of intense emotional stress. The female psyche is much more flexible, a woman is able to quickly "flip the fur upside down", see the different sides of the situation and intuitively predict the consequences. It is much harder for men to do this. but that does not mean they are unable to feel. Their feelings can be much stronger and deeper, they experience such situations much more than women, only it all happens internally. It can even be invisible at all, or noticeable - in radical, even inadequate, reactions.
6. Silence
Many women complain about the seclusion of men: "You never know what's going on in his soul. Silent."
When he returns home after a hard day's work, the man just wants to shut up. The wife, on the other hand, sees it as a reluctance to talk to her. Unpleasant tension can be felt at home.
On average, a woman needs one and a half times more communication with other people than men. A man can listen carefully to a woman for only about 10-15 seconds, after which he is ready to give an answer, even without getting into the details of the conversation. And again - this is not because a man would not listen to his wife, would not respect him, but because he is more interested in the outcome of the conversation, but not in the process itself - communication. He is more willing to think and give an already well-thought-out answer than to discuss all the details in detail and how to get into empty chatter in the swamp.
7. Rudeness
This is another shortage of men who can ruin even the truest relationship. "I am an old warrior and I do not know the words of love" - a convenient formula for croaking, which does not justify their rudeness. However, women can very easily try to eradicate this shortcoming by convincing their husband that nice words and just a respectful conversation are not a sign of weakness.
Women should be made aware that a careful and polite man does not look funny. Yes, a man wants to make his woman happy, to protect her, but to do so must be strong. Regularly solid "go inseparably" with the word discourteous. A woman must stand firm against rudeness, not allowing this stupid flaw to disrupt the relationship. In the end, the man will also realize that it is his rudeness that prevents him from being happy and true.
8. Selfishness and egocentrism
Selfishness is a conscious phenomenon that arises from the negative qualities of character. The egoist is clearly aware of other people's interests and thoughts, but he ignores them, guided by his own interests. It is better to run away from egoists
But the more common phenomenon is egocentrism. An egocentric is a great child who focuses only on himself and his inner world. This is a person who considers himself the center of the whole world and cannot even imagine that other people may think differently than he does.
When faced with information that is contrary to his experience and opinion, the egocentric simply cannot accept it. As a result, he finds himself in conflict and often experiences a great deal of this discrepancy.
The roots of egonentrism are to be found in the fact that man cannot, does not want to accept that there are other points of view than his only opinion. An egocentric can become a tyrant, a jealousy, a victim of an unrecognized genius, and a "napoleon" at home if he does not learn to see the world from different angles.
Under normal circumstances, children's egocentrism passes at the age of 10-12, but often this bad trait accompanies a person throughout his life. Overcoming egocentrism indicates a certain degree of human maturity.
In fact, one should not look for the other person's shortcomings, but try to accept the other as he is. You need to help your partner get better, without blaming, but doing it imperceptibly, smartly and gently. Then the harmony will enter your relationship, which is what every woman really strives for.
Nice article, now I can understand men better. Although I think many women - including me - are also thinking about global issues, politics, and the Universe more than where we leave dirty socks. Of course my mom doesn't like that at all!
