I've got one:

Don't tell us what you think we want to hear to avoid conflict. The truth is always better.

Just because I tell you about a problem does not mean you need to fix it...try just listening...and maybe give me a hug. Generally, I know how to fix it, I just want some support and understanding.

Be genuinely interested in your partner as a person and in her life. Talk to her about her life--her job & career, the kids, her hobbies, her hopes and dreams, the books and movies she likes, etc. Ask her questions about herself, like how her day was. Don't let the conversation be all one way (all about you). If you are not truly interested in her and her ideas and opinions, beyond the fact that she is cute or funny or good in bed, save her some pain and don't get seriously involved.

sunrise - good one!

i got one - when were out at the mall, or just anywhere walking around, if you have to FORCE yourself not to look at those hot girls walking around, DO IT! I don't want to look at you to say something and see you looking at other girls. I know some women don't have a problem with it but I do.

um...realistically (maybe more ideally) just give us what we want and we'll be nice Secrets Every man should know (Because I know they read this board)...kidding.

No, for real, the only thing I can recommend is to be sympathetic to her, especially when she's needing it.

10. If we cry, don't get freaked out or think it has to be about you or that you've done something wrong. Crying relieves stress and shedding a few tears can do wonders to improve mood--maybe it was a hard day at the office or with 3 screaming kids, that's all. (But if we cry right after an orgasm, it means it was REALLY, REALLY, GOOD!!!)

Heck yes. I had girl time today with my best friend. We drank Starbucks and ordered chinese food, and just sat and talked. I needed it so bad. When we made the plans yesterday morning, it made my whole day good.

Get to know Me. Our relationship is not like any other relationship you have had and you can't read articles or books about "women" to know what makes me tick.
