All this talk of men and women being different may sound repetitive, since, since girls are culturally and historically differentiated from boys from an early age, it is only natural that in adulthood they will be almost opposites.
But have you ever stopped to think that maybe we have a lot to learn from these strange beings we call men? Check out some things they could teach us to become people almost as light as they are.
1 ? Emotional detachment
Some of us women spend so much time suffering from frustrated relationships that they hardly realize that the causes of these problems can also be their saviors. We could learn from men to better control our feelings and prevent our hearts from falling in love with the first cute face they meet along the way. “When a relationship goes wrong, men don't die for it, they don't suffer for something that didn't work out. On the contrary, instead of thinking about what happened, they leave for another ?, says Veruska, 26.
2 ? Clarity in words
For Deborah, 28, "women don't know how to be straightforward, they keep on saying what they really think." Not only in relationships, women in general are more prolific than men in dealing with various subjects. Also, some women often go around and around before verbalizing what they want. It would be worth having more objectivity in what they say, because that would avoid many misunderstandings.
3? You have to trust yourself
Men believe more in themselves, they do not question their own qualities and abilities as much as women. According to Karina, 25, “our insecurity, especially with regard to love relationships, makes us vulnerable and predictable, while men show greater ability to deal with such situations, with greater security in decision making or invested in a crush?
4? Life must be enjoyed
Usually, men are easier for fun. Any backyard barbecue is reason to party. We sometimes have more caveats when choosing something to do with friends, and often we are not captivated by any kind of programming. Also, most men know how to make the most of single life without having to get involved with anyone.
5? Never abandon your friends
When we start dating, we tend to drop everyone else and dedicate ourselves only to being loved. This is not to say that all women act this way, but it is a repeat behavior. Most men, on the other hand, do not forget to schedule little programs with their friends even after they are married, even if it is only one video game per week. “Friends have been with us for a long time and will probably be for a long time yet. Shouldn't we drop them just because we get a new boyfriend? Says Juliana, 19.
6? Unity is strength
According to Karina, some women should understand once and for all that together they are much stronger. ÜWhen a man lies, everyone covers up. Already with the chicks, one delivery to another. I think they would be happier if they didn't confuse or mix sex, love and friendship ?, he says.
7? Sincerity is key
Do you know when that great friend is overweight and you insist on telling her that you see nothing different? Yeah, men don't know. Most of them keep identifying and highlighting the defects of their friends, because they know that sincerity is fundamental for good coexistence. This way some women have to make up? What they really think is often the cause of fights with their friends.
8? Body is not everything
While some of us spend our lives complaining about their physical attributes and trying to improve them at any cost, our friends of the opposite sex are out drinking their beer without giving a damn about the tummy that begins to appear. According to Laura, 24, "We should learn to care less about the body, because most men don't care."
9? No need to look beautiful 24 hours a day
Today most men worry a little more about their appearance, yet they know when they need to be well groomed and limit themselves to it. Some women, on the other hand, insist on staying perfect as much as possible. ? Should we break free of this? Dictatorship of beauty? and give preference to comfort ?, says Juliana.
10? First the reason, then the emotion
Okay, women are naturally more emotional than men, but you have to learn to control those impulses and make decisions using your brain more than your heart. Men, in general, do this and get along very well."Some women tend to place a high value on their feelings, so they often become frustrated," says Deborah.
Of course, not all women and men follow these behavior patterns, but if you have identified with any of them, why not try to act a little more like your male friends?
