10 Things You Shouldn’t Say When A Man Opens Up

Monday, March 1st, 2010

SKYE BLUE

Ladies, in yesterday’s post, Men Have Feelings? I shared a story about a man whose unvoiced yet exceedingly obvious feelings were dismissed by his fiancée.

A Quick Aside: Please know that we here at metanotherfrog.com recognize that women are also misunderstood (in more ways than we can count) by men and that we plan to address those issues in the months ahead. Your time will come my sisters – you have our word.

A blast from my less than stellar relationship past…

.

‘I’ll be back in a minute,’ my boyfriend Tim says, as he and two of his boys head to the bar to get drinks.

People, can you tell me why all the good, warm and fuzzy emotions you feel from the moment you realize you like someone seem to fade away so quickly?

SAM SHARPE, SKYE BLUE and ELIZABETH ROSE

.
I’ve got to be honest. Hearing those three little words doesn’t do it for me. It doesn’t move me to praise God or my lover. Nor does it make me run for cover. No, hearing a woman say “Sam, I love you” at worst makes me cringe a little and at best makes me do a little inner shoulder shrug Read More
