Top 2 Communication Mistakes Women Make When Dating

in dating advice

So you’ve been dating a guy for a little while now, but can’t seem to communicate with him. You’re becoming frustrated because you can’t get him to open up about his feelings for you or commit to you. Well, guess what; it’s probably because of the technique you’ve been using to try and break him from his shell. We all know that men tend to be more secretive about their feelings and rumors say that they are more afraid of commitment then women. But could it be that it’s actually your actions that are pushing him away?

Communication Mistake #1

Stop over sharing! Just because you tell him how you feel about him, doesn’t mean he’s going to turn around and tell you how he feels about you. Just like saying, “I love you” doesn’t guarantee an “I love you too” in return. It is usually best to wait till a man open ups about his feelings for you first. This way you aren’t left to look like a fool and don’t come across as clingy and emotional to soon in the relationship. If you’ve been dating awhile now and he just isn’t opening up, go ahead and express your feelings for him; do it once and be done with it. By telling him over and over again how you feel will only push him away especially if he isn’t sharing your same feelings.

Communication Mistake #2

Stop expecting every guy you date to become a committed partner. If you know from the get that you are looking for a commitment let it be known in a subtle way. Usually around the third date you start to find out what people’s expectations are. It’s always good to know up front what a person is looking for in a relationship; are they looking for fun or something more serious and longterm. If you both agreed that you wanted something longterm and the spark has continued to sparkle then great. However, if you either didn’t agree on the same thing or the spark just isn’t sparking then it’s best for both parties to part ways. Don’t continue dating them with the hopes that they’ll change their mind about you. All you’re doing is hurting yourself more in the long run.
