This can cause conflict and strain relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/geni.us\/mars-free-audiobook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus<\/em><\/a><em> <\/em>is a #1 New York Times bestselling book on the common relationship problems between men and women. The book believes these difficulties result from psychological differences between the sexes. At the most basic level, we can distinguish between the sexes based on how they respond to stress.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book helps men and women understand each other and reconcile their differences. John Gray creates a translation guide using the playful metaphor of men being from Mars and women being from Venus. Both Martians and Venusians can use this guide to better understand each other. Through this guide, they can develop intimacy and build stronger relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus<\/em> has now sold more than 15 million copies and is the highest-ranked work of non-fiction from the 1990s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cGray offers a Berlitz of the heart, a translation of that foreign language your spouse is speaking.

They perceive assistance as an attempt to undermine their capabilities. They exercise their ability to solve problems quickly and love to have these abilities recognized and appreciated. Men also hate to have their skills ignored or mocked. They rarely use feelings to guide their behavior, as they believe this produces unreliable results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women are different. Women prefer to co-operate and mostly avoid working on their own where possible. To women, others working independently undermine the team\u2019s efforts to work interactively. Women believe abilities are generally unimportant, as they result in aggressive competitiveness. Instead, women exercise their feelings by interacting with other women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Men desire appreciation of their abilities. Women desire appreciation for their assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">StoryShot #2: When Stressed, Men Go to Their Cave but Women Talk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As well as differing in the ways they work, men and women differ in how they react to stress.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When faced with a difficult problem, the typical reaction for men is to become non-communicative and withdraw temporarily to their \u201ccave\u201d. Most often, they go to their garage or spend time with their friends. They will probably not focus on solving the problem they\u2019re facing during this time. The \u201ctime-out\u201d allows them to distance themselves from the problem, relax, recharge and re-examine it later from a fresh angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Men take this approach because they hope to solve problems by themselves. They do not want interference from others. If men communicate, it is so that they can get the point across quickly. They generally avoid listening where possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The male tendency to retreat into their \u2018cave\u2019 has historically been hard for women to understand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When women become unduly stressed, their natural reaction is to talk to someone close about it, even if talking doesn\u2019t provide a solution to the problem at hand. This sets up a natural dynamic where the man retreats as the woman tries to get closer, which becomes a major source of conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"ss-ctt-wrapper ss-ctt-style-4\" data-ss-post-id=\"47544\" data-nonce=\"cd1376591d\">\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%E2%80%9CMen+need+to+remember+that+women+talk+about+problems+to+get+close+and+not+necessarily+to+get+solutions.%E2%80%9D+%E2%80%94+John+Gray+%23menarefrommarswomenarefromvenus+%23johngray+%23relationships+%23books&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.getstoryshots.com%2Fes%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F47544&#038;via=storyshots&#038;related=storyshots\" class=\"ss-ctt-tweet\" data-title=\"Click to Tweet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cMen need to remember that women talk about problems to get close and not necessarily to get solutions.\u201d \u2014 John Gray<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%E2%80%9CMen+need+to+remember+that+women+talk+about+problems+to+get+close+and+not+necessarily+to+get+solutions.%E2%80%9D+%E2%80%94+John+Gray+%23menarefrommarswomenarefromvenus+%23johngray+%23relationships+%23books&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.getstoryshots.com%2Fes%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F47544&#038;via=storyshots&#038;related=storyshots\" class=\"ss-ctt-link\" data-title=\"Click to Tweet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t<span>Click to Tweet<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"ss-svg-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" focusable=\"false\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M18.244 2.25h3.308l-7.227 8.26 8.502 11.24H16.17l-5.214-6.817L4.99 21.75H1.68l7.73-8.835L1.254 2.25H8.08l4.713 6.231zm-1.161 17.52h1.833L7.084 4.126H5.117z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t<\/div><!-- END .ss-ctt-wrapper -->\n\n\t\t\n\n\n<p>On the flip side, women seek communication as they want to work out how they can help others.

This selfishness can be detrimental to those around them. In a relationship, men have to learn to care for their partner. Women have the instinct to look after others, even at their own expense. In a relationship, women have to learn how to accept care. If women learn this, then both members of the relationship can have their needs met.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both sexes winning is better than a relationship based on instinctive behaviors. Issues can arise when one of the partners continues to act on instinct. They will not be successful in pleasing their partner. This partner could then revert to their instinctive behavior, leading to the relationship unraveling.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Men need to feel that their attention is required. Men should express their desire to fulfill their partner\u2019s needs and for her to accept his care.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women need to feel that their needs are accepted and considered. A woman must express her desire for his care and encourage her man that he is capable of fulfilling her needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"ss-ctt-wrapper ss-ctt-style-4\" data-ss-post-id=\"47544\" data-nonce=\"cd1376591d\">\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%E2%80%9CMen+are+motivated+when+they+feel+needed+while+women+are+motivated+when+they+feel+cherished.%E2%80%9D+-+John+Gray+%23menarefrommarswomenarefromvenus+%23johngray+%23relationships+%23books&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.getstoryshots.com%2Fes%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F47544&#038;via=storyshots&#038;related=storyshots\" class=\"ss-ctt-tweet\" data-title=\"Click to Tweet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cMen are motivated when they feel needed while women are motivated when they feel cherished.\u201d &#8211; John Gray<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%E2%80%9CMen+are+motivated+when+they+feel+needed+while+women+are+motivated+when+they+feel+cherished.%E2%80%9D+-+John+Gray+%23menarefrommarswomenarefromvenus+%23johngray+%23relationships+%23books&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.getstoryshots.com%2Fes%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F47544&#038;via=storyshots&#038;related=storyshots\" class=\"ss-ctt-link\" data-title=\"Click to Tweet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t<span>Click to Tweet<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"ss-svg-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" focusable=\"false\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M18.244 2.25h3.308l-7.227 8.26 8.502 11.24H16.17l-5.214-6.817L4.99 21.75H1.68l7.73-8.835L1.254 2.25H8.08l4.713 6.231zm-1.161 17.52h1.833L7.084 4.126H5.117z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t<\/div><!-- END .ss-ctt-wrapper -->\n\n\t\t\n\n\n<p>Both must remember to appreciate, accept, and forgive the other.

Their primary purpose is to provide information, so they generally like to sort out their thoughts before communicating. Non-communication can arise, as men want to spend time alone considering their thoughts. Men must reassure women that they are merely taking time to think.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women tend to use language more dramatically and artistically. This allows women to express their feelings fully. Women sort their thoughts out while communicating them. While providing this stream of concerns, women must reassure their partners that they are capable of caring for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both men and women must focus on avoiding the blame game. When partners are dealing with problems, blaming only one party is not useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">StoryShot #5: Men and Women Deal With Problems Differently<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When troubled, men do not want their partner to express concern for them. Instead, men want to hear the problem at hand is within their abilities. They wish to sort the issue out themselves. Sympathy will only feel like the woman is undermining the man\u2019s abilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When women are troubled, they love their partner to express concern for them. Women don\u2019t like to hear the issue is simple. Describing her problems as simple rejects her concerns. A man should only propose a solution when he has considered all her feelings.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"ss-ctt-wrapper ss-ctt-style-4\" data-ss-post-id=\"47544\" data-nonce=\"cd1376591d\">\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%E2%80%9CIt+took+me+years+to+understand+that+my+wife+actually+wanted+me+to+worry+for+her+when+she+was+upset.+Without+this+awareness+of+our+different+needs%2C+I+would+minimize+the+importance+of+her+concerns.+This+only+made+her+more+upset.%E2%80%9D+%E2%80%94+John+Gray+%23menarefrommarswomenarefromvenus+%23johngray+%23relationships+%23books&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.getstoryshots.com%2Fes%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F47544&#038;via=storyshots&#038;related=storyshots\" class=\"ss-ctt-tweet\" data-title=\"Click to Tweet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cIt took me years to understand that my wife actually wanted me to worry for her when she was upset.

These emotions can stem from recent or long-standing problems and can build up over time. If they cannot find any real troubles, women might still find other worries. When women feel like this, they will no longer be givers. They will demand the right to express their feelings. If supported and given time to express their feelings, women will recover and soon return to their usual selves. As men spring between unhappiness and happiness, women\u2019s gradual movements in mood may be hard for men to understand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women must assist their partners by not showing too much concern when they are sinking into their depression. Women should explain to their partners that it is not their fault.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Issues can arise when a man\u2019s periodic need to be free coincides with a woman\u2019s periodic need to be heard. At this point, the woman should share her concerns with her friends instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">StoryShot #8: Differences in Argument Styles Can Lead to Further Friction&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Arguments are less about content and more about the tone of voice and body language. Communication should always be loving and respectful.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest flaws of men is their inability to pay sufficient attention to women\u2019s feelings during an argument. One of the most significant flaws of women is being overly critical of men. Either of these flaws can be the trigger for an argument. These flaws can also trigger the partner\u2019s flaws to arise, which further aggravates the argument. When men make mistakes, they become frustrated and angry. During this time, women should leave their partners alone to calm down.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apologies are also considered differently by different sexes. Men consider apologies to be admissions of guilt. Women consider apologies to be expressions of compassion. This difference leads to issues, as men are much less willing to apologize.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within arguments, the tone is often different between the sexes. Men generally use aggressive words to ensure that they win the argument. Women back down during arguments as they don\u2019t want to engage with these aggressive words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Men and women also adopt different approaches in attempts to avoid arguments. To avoid arguments, men will withdraw and refuse to talk. Women will pretend the disagreement is forgotten and will move on. The peace is a cold one, though, and the issues will remain. So, men should listen without getting defensive and women should try to express their feelings without being critical.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">StoryShot #9: Men Shouldn\u2019t Assume Women Are Happy to Be Givers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Men value results while women value thought. Issues can arise from this difference in values.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If men do not receive what they want, they may suspend giving. Women will continue to give even though they believe they are giving more. However, the woman will start to feel unloved, unappreciated, and resentful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few things that men and women can do to overcome these differences. Men should try to identify little ways to show they value their partner without being asked to do so. Men should also avoid the mistake of assuming their partner is happy to give without receiving anything back.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the flip side, women should avoid pretending that they are happy with the inequality of giving. If women start to feel resentful, they should start to slowly reduce their giving and learn to ask for things in return. Women should also provide remarks of appreciation when their partner does something loving. These remarks will encourage their partner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"ss-ctt-wrapper ss-ctt-style-4\" data-ss-post-id=\"47544\" data-nonce=\"cd1376591d\">\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%E2%80%9CGet+the+love+you+deserve+and+give+your+partner+the+love+and+support+he+deserves.%E2%80%9D+-+John+Gray+%23menarefrommarswomenarefromvenus+%23johngray+%23relationships+%23books&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.getstoryshots.com%2Fes%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F47544&#038;via=storyshots&#038;related=storyshots\" class=\"ss-ctt-tweet\" data-title=\"Click to Tweet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cGet the love you deserve and give your partner the love and support he deserves.\u201d &#8211; John Gray<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%E2%80%9CGet+the+love+you+deserve+and+give+your+partner+the+love+and+support+he+deserves.%E2%80%9D+-+John+Gray+%23menarefrommarswomenarefromvenus+%23johngray+%23relationships+%23books&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.getstoryshots.com%2Fes%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F47544&#038;via=storyshots&#038;related=storyshots\" class=\"ss-ctt-link\" data-title=\"Click to Tweet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t<span>Click to Tweet<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"ss-svg-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" focusable=\"false\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M18.244 2.25h3.308l-7.227 8.26 8.502 11.24H16.17l-5.214-6.817L4.99 21.75H1.68l7.73-8.835L1.254 2.25H8.08l4.713 6.231zm-1.161 17.52h1.833L7.084 4.126H5.117z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t<\/div><!-- END .ss-ctt-wrapper -->\n\n\t\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">StoryShot #10: Men Show Anger and Ego to Tackle Fear<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Avoiding negative feelings doesn\u2019t make them go away.

To engage with this communication, we must also unlearn the repression of negative feelings. One way to do this is to write your feelings down. Writing your feelings down allows you to express your negative emotions in a controlled manner, rather than letting them explode. After this, you will be in a better position to explain yourself calmly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">StoryShot #11: Ask A Man Would You Not Could You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Men enjoy proving their worth by doing things, but they wait to be asked and struggle to remember to offer their services. So, women must learn to control their expectations. Men will not always expect women\u2019s needs. Women should ask for help when they need it but avoid making it sound like a demand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Men often interpret questions that begin with the words \u2018Could you\u2019 or \u2018Can you\u2019 as questioning their abilities. So, they respond more positively to the same questions if they begin instead with \u2018Would you\u2019 or \u2018Will you\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is best to allow a man to do things in a way and at a time that works for him. If a man complains about a request, this is a good thing. It means he is considering doing it, and the best approach is to wait for him to decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">StoryShot #12: The Honeymoon Period Doesn\u2019t Last&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"ss-ctt-wrapper ss-ctt-style-4\" data-ss-post-id=\"47544\" data-nonce=\"cd1376591d\">\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%E2%80%9CWhen+men+and+women+are+able+to+respect+and+accept+their+differences+then+love+has+a+chance+to+blossom.%E2%80%9D+%E2%80%94+John+Gray+%23menarefrommarswomenarefromvenus+%23johngray+%23relationships+%23books&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.getstoryshots.com%2Fes%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F47544&#038;via=storyshots&#038;related=storyshots\" class=\"ss-ctt-tweet\" data-title=\"Click to Tweet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&nbsp;\u201cWhen men and women are able to respect and accept their differences then love has a chance to blossom.\u201d \u2014 John Gray<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=%E2%80%9CWhen+men+and+women+are+able+to+respect+and+accept+their+differences+then+love+has+a+chance+to+blossom.%E2%80%9D+%E2%80%94+John+Gray+%23menarefrommarswomenarefromvenus+%23johngray+%23relationships+%23books&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.getstoryshots.com%2Fes%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F47544&#038;via=storyshots&#038;related=storyshots\" class=\"ss-ctt-link\" data-title=\"Click to Tweet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t<span>Click to Tweet<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<svg class=\"ss-svg-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"img\" focusable=\"false\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M18.244 2.25h3.308l-7.227 8.26 8.502 11.24H16.17l-5.214-6.817L4.99 21.75H1.68l7.73-8.835L1.254 2.25H8.08l4.713 6.231zm-1.161 17.52h1.833L7.084 4.126H5.117z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t<\/div><!-- END .ss-ctt-wrapper -->\n\n\t\t\n\n\n<p>Love inevitably changes over time.
