    So why don’t people just ask for what they want instead of complaining about what they don’t get?

    We want to believe the other person can read our minds, and if they could we wouldn’t haven’t to ask for what we want.
    We want to punish the other person for not giving us what we want. Hard to admit, but it’s true.

    To start, ask him if he feels you’re looking out for him; can he tell how much you’re there for him? Then, ask him what are the best ways you can show him your support. Listen to his answer. Make an effort that very moment to respond to what he says.

    Here’s what emotional support can look like:

    He wants more physical affection and touch from you-and not just sex. Men tell me all the time how they want their significant other to show more affection. So cuddle up to him while you watch a show, give him a big hug and kiss hello, or give him a 5-minute should rub while you’re laying in bed together, getting ready to go to sleep. Make an effort to show some physical affection towards him consistently.

    BAD NEWS FOR EARLY BIRDS
    * You’re useless in the arvo. Early birds are up and at ’em before anyone, and are very productive in the morning, but they tend to flame out by the afternoon. Night owls stay alert longer than early risers before losing their mental stamina. So, don’t ask an early bird to do anything that requires sustained attention more than 10 hours after they wake up.

    * You’re probably poorer. Although their lifestyle has plenty of drawbacks, night owls tend to be better off financially than their early-rising counterparts.

    Psychology Today

    The human sexual response cycle is thought to have four stages:

    Stage 1: Desire, which is defined as having a sexy thought or sexual fantasy that often occurs out of the blue or in response to a trigger such as seeing an attractive person, smelling an aromatic perfume, or watching a hot movie. Desire then prompts us to become sexually active.

    Stage 2: Arousal is the excitement we feel, the physiological changes in our bodies once we’re physically stimulated.

    Most disputes and other conversations are about two things: do you care about me, and can I trust you. When you argue about putting the toilet seat down or whether we should go to the in-laws’ for Thanksgiving, it’s only partly about those actual things. What it’s really about is this: I care about the toilet seat (or going to my parents’ house for dinner), so can you show me you care about what I care about?

    First, the scientific reason:

    As you may know, falling in love involves feelings of exhilaration, intense passion, and euphoria, especially if the loved one reciprocates the passion. Of course, if the loved one doesn’t feel the same way, these feelings morph into desperation and heartbreak. But let’s not go there today.

    Back to falling in love. Our energy skyrockets, we have heightened powers of concentration and persistent thoughts about the object of our affection. During this state, our brains show heightened activity in areas that are rich in dopamine if scanned using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).

    “We have known about sex differences for years when it comes to depression, and they are absolutely essential to understanding the illness,” said Jill Goldstein, director of research at the Connors Center for Women’s Health and Gender Biology at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
