In “Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus”, the first few chapters talk about a man’s desire to fix problems and a woman’s desire to talk about problems. I don’t wanna step into the minefield of modern gender politics, but I do think in general this advice has helped me be a better boyfriend/partner.
So maybe less explaining why people are the way they are, and more “I hear you, that really sucks and I’m sorry they are being so rude”.
Uh, isn’t that what this is?
