Matilda, I haven't read that book yet, It certainly seems like a gender communication gap going on here.
I'm reading DB again. There is a section on communication between the genders. We're wired to communicate differently. It seems like she wants me to talk like a woman.
Communication is so frustrating. I'd hate to see a M end over miscommunication, when the issues are solvable problems (IMO).
