PS. Two of the most destested sentences that a woman can say to a man are: 1. Do you love me? 2. We need to talk. 1. Either he does or he doesn't - if I'm not astute enough to figure it out without asking, there are larger problems going on. 2. This one I've said a few times, along with "can I talk to you about something?" as an alternative. If the communication is so lacking that I Need to preface a conversation like that - chances are I should simply walk in and tell him "It's over, I don't think it can be fixed any longer. Time for one of us to leave." It's not that a woman can't say them, if they are needed, it's just that when she does, what goes off in a man's head (or it should), is flashing red lights and blaring horns, with a voice over of "Danger! Will Robinson, Danger!" On the outside, he may not even blink. 1. "We need to talk." If you wanna talk ... about WHAT fer Christ sakes? Be specific. If you can't be specific, then don't say "We need to talk." What's the purpose of warning me that we are going to talk about something? Whatever reason the woman thinks, to the man, it gives him hours or days to wonder: "What the hell did I screw up?" It puts him in a state of stress and tension. Not conducive to a happy and satisfied man. 2. Do you love me? Ask it the first time in your relationship, when it's really, really important to know. Ask ONE TIME. If you get a "yes", then it's "yes" from then on. If it's "no", then it's "no" and asking it again and again is NOT the way to change his mind, although he may give you the answer you want to hear if you are particularly good in the sack department. Don't accuse him of lying, later, when he finally tells you he doesn't love you, and never did. From a man's point-of-view, you lied to yourself. Firm
