Comments on: Advice From A Single Dating Expert’s Girlfriend http://www.evanmarckatz.com/blog/advice-from-a-single-dating-experts-girlfriend-part-deux/ Fri, 12 Mar 2010 21:53:59 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Evian http://www.evanmarckatz.com/blog/advice-from-a-single-dating-experts-girlfriend-part-deux/comment-page-1/#comment-23834 Evian Wed, 18 Mar 2009 15:55:07 +0000 http://www.evanmarckatz.com/blog/advice-from-a-single-dating-experts-girlfriend-part-deux/#comment-23834 I tend to be one of those girls who lets her emotions get the best of her, and I speak what I feel. I've noticed lately, my husband rolling his eyes at me if I get upset at him for saying something that hurts my feelings, like he doesn't take it seriously. It bothered me for a long time, until I finally looked it up. I know I'm not perfect but it stinks to have him roll his eyes if I'm hurt over something. I think this is the best advice I've read. Maybe I AM being over critical and just need to give him some Mulligans, and maybe he'll start being less "Omg she's being crazy again" and attentive to my feelings. Thanks a bunch.

And although I don't get into shouting matches with guys, or throw glasses of champagne in their faces when pissed, I'm prone to the whole brooding, silent treatment thing. I should definitely listen to your wife, Evan- I think I'd have more peace of mind when it comes to men. I’m really glad I read this- alas, I am a hypersensitive woman (I’m working on changing that).

Though I've always wondered exactly _what_ to do when I'm getting the silent treatment from a woman. Should I ask about it or pretend like it's raining or..?

Evan, I can get you out of this one…

Hi Evan,
This was a good article. Your girlfriend makes a lot of sense.

Your girlfriend makes a lot of sense. It's a good thing all of us aren't as in tune as she is otherwise you'd have too much time on your hands. I'm wondering when we’ll be hearing your wedding bells too. You seem to have found a wonderful woman, so what are you waiting for? Its okay Evan, you can still give advice on being single and dating even if you get married, because I hear the best way to have a successful marriage is to treat your husband or wife, like you're still dating… and you are the expert. Take Care. :) Hi Evan,
