On average, women speak about 8,000 words a day, while men only utter about half that amount. By evening, men have only a few words “in reserve,” while women still have around 2,000-3,000 words left. This is why men often come home in silence, driving women “crazy.”
Even with a wife who loves her husband dearly, some of his habits can be quite intolerable. However, try to view these “strange” behaviors not through the lens of an angry wife, but from a medical perspective, and you will find that the things you don’t understand are actually quite simple.
Physiological differences between men and women affect how they react differently to the same situations. Therefore, there are things that make women lose their composure, while men find them entirely natural.
He doesn’t say anything?
When returning home from work, sometimes a husband doesn’t greet his wife, responds lazily, and remains silent, continuing this behavior until the next morning. In this case, wives should not tire themselves with doubts or wonder why their husband has nothing to say or doesn’t love them anymore.
Psychologists have calculated that in a day, women speak around 8,000 words, while men only produce about half of that. By evening, men are left with just a few words “in reserve,” while women still have 2,000-3,000 words. This discrepancy leads to conflicts. To avoid this, you can talk to yourself about things without needing your husband to respond.
Don’t ask for anything while he’s reading the newspaper
When he’s reading the newspaper, external stimuli like your voice have no effect. Whether you ask him to come eat dinner or answer the phone, he won’t hear anything until you take the newspaper away. The issue is that he simply doesn’t regard your requests as important. Neurologists confirm that the connections between the right and left hemispheres of the brain allow multitasking. Women have sufficient connections thanks to estrogen, which is why they can do their nails while “directing” their husbands, all while watching television. Men first need to fold the newspaper and sit at the dining table before you can express your complaints—one at a time, so they can remember properly.
Women get most frustrated when their husbands, with a cold expression, refuse to engage in social life at home. In reality, men cannot simply switch to other matters that quickly.
Work comes first
From various studies, sociologists assert that the majority of men prioritize work over family. In contrast, women feel the opposite. Therefore, when at home, if a husband continues to tackle important work issues, don’t ever pose questions to him like which school to enroll the child in, where to go for vacation, or whether to consider moving. For him, these matters are trivial compared to discussing his job prospects in today’s meeting with the boss.
He sees nothing at all
There is another “strange” behavior in men. A husband might complain all day about someone moving his T-shirt somewhere, while his wife can immediately see where it is in the room. Or a father may yell at his child for taking his phone somewhere until the wife reminds him that it’s right under his feet. Yet men can quickly notice what’s happening across the street.
Ophthalmologists have determined that women see better to the left, right, and even behind them compared to men. Men generally only see well straight ahead and at a distance.
He never talks about love with you
Women also get frustrated because men rarely talk about love, seldom give flowers, and never initiate romantic conversations. Psychologists point out that this is all due to the characteristics of male psychology. For them, love is expressed not through words, but through actions. Only a man who truly loves will do chores like fixing plumbing or taking out the trash to help the woman he loves. If your husband does all these things, don’t doubt: he loves you.
Knowing these things, you might think that women are more organized than men. Be careful not to be too arrogant about that. The strong should be tolerant of the weaknesses of their loved ones.
