It is ironic that rational men often ignore their own real-life experiences and are lulled into a false sense of security by assuming woman think the same as they do – They don’t!
This is especially true when a man goes through the trauma leading up to a mid-life break-up. It is no surprise they rarely want to “talk about it.” Men are wired to avoid contact with others when they are going through a stressful time and often think women want to do the same – They don’t!
Nothing irritates a woman more than a man’s silence and this can be the beginnings of a major disconnect.
