"You Just Don't Understand"
Women and Men in Conversation
by Deborah Tannen, Ph.D.
This is an amazing book. It explains the differences, not only in conversational styles, but how information is processed between the two sexes.
I found it invaluable - absolutely invaluable in helping me to understand what men are saying, why they say the things they say; what women say and why we say the things we say, and then why we both cannot figure out what each other is saying!
It's really incredible how truly different the sexes think, process information and react to what is being said.
It is a facinating read - very easy to understand, and I would suggest it to everyone - including men!
(Actually, I should reread it myself since I am at a point where I am either going to start pulling my hair out OR HIS!!)
This is the stuff that no one ever teaches about the opposite sex.
