Chapter 2: Mr. Fix-It and the Home-Improvement Committee

Introduction
The most frequently expressed complaint women have about men is that they dont listen. Either a man completely ignores her when she speaks to him, or he listens for awhile and then proudly puts on his Mr Fix-It cap and offers her a solution. Men dont understand that women dont want solutions, they want empathy.

On the other hand, the most frequently expressed complaint men have about women is that women are always trying to change them. When a woman loves a man, she feels responsible to assist him in growing and tries to help him improve the way he does things. She thinks she's nurturing him, while he feels he's being controlled. Instead, he wants her acceptance.

Summary: Men offer solutions, while women seek to improve.

talking about listening.. many women didn;t listen to man too
i;m man .. when i voice out my opinion...why many women didn't listen to me?? because to women thinking is "it your problem .. not my problem.."

so many women didn;t listen too... i think your statement is bias...

your statement made man to listen... when they listen,, man become slave.. women become master... this is bullshit.,.

No, it's not only women who don't listen to you. Even the men on this forum don't listen to you. Something must be not right.

Mr asylum, you think you're always right, straight into your face I'll call you naive. You think you're closest to God by saying that nothing in this world can be different cuz it must revolve around you and only you. Did you even read the book? Oh..wait...sorry, people must follow what you say.

Men value power, competency, efficiency and achievement. Their sense of self is defined by their ability to achieve results, and they experience fulfilment primarily through success and accomplishment. And for him to feel good about himself, he must achieve these goals by himself. Someone else cant achieve them for him. Understanding this characteristic can help women to understand why men resist so much being corrected or being told what to do. To offer a man unsolicited advice is to presume that he doesnt know what to do or that he cannot do it on his own.

wrong.. man only value survival....where this result must be achieve or we will die of starvation...that why men must work to achieve the goal and target..here i say it loud " I WANT TO SURVIVE"

sadly power, competency, efficiency and achievement has become a criteria which what women looking for man..and they forget the what is important call friendship..

Men value power, competency, efficiency and achievement ....which is total unneccessary..it only neccessary when come to greed and power struggle which happen in our country as following:-


Men value power of corruption, competency of corruption, efficiency of corruption and achievement of corruption..
power, competency, efficiency and achievement of cronyism
you think that neccessary? have you spare some thought who people who just want to survive and be happy?be realitisc man

Big deal. I left home at 19 BY MY OWN ACCORD because I wanna experience staying by myself in campus. I started running my own business at the age of 23 when most people of my age are still clubbing and struggling at their first jobs. Yet I know that I'm a very independent person myself I don't need people to tell me that, unlike you.

People who are well respected do not need to command respect like how you do. You do it because you're a loser. Even you feel like one yourself.

And your mum nurture you for most part of your life, you should thank and respect her. I pity your mom for having a son like you.

You talk responsibility and leadership as though you can handle it on your own. But seeing the way you speak, I doubt you can. You're just gonna whine and we'll keep laughing at you. And I can judge characters very well - You can't handle responsibility and leadership, not at least as well as your mom does.

What girl is controlling you??? I doubt women even wanna get close to you biggrin.gif Not the smart ones at least.

Nope, there are women who don't make sandwiches and can make life interesting for everyone, but I doubt you're even worthy to date them, least any women at all. Haha.

Oh, if you happen to date a woman who only knows how to make sammich and nothing else, you probably need to earn enough to support her, since she can't earn. But oh wait, you have problem earning too, and they don't wanna date you. Tough life for you, ya!

You guys are funny, making a big deal over the smallest achievements.

Back to the topic, I've read the book and to me it still can't deal with the main issue with most relationship and won't even solve 20% of the issues here in cupid corner. Attitude problem. You can be applying all the concepts in this book but if the girl has attitude problem or is materialistic, I'm willing to bet this book will not help at all.
