[...] “The staple motivation of a man from a relationship is appreciation. All men want to be looked up to, particularly by their partner.” - a tip I got from this dude. [...]

CoFFeeFreak – For women, I suggest you blog about that as I’m not womanly enough to know. If he doesn’t call you within a day, you go bonkers? Could it be he’s not interested? Yes, the rules do apply to both sides, but in a slightly different context.

Nick Phillips – Macho macho man! Dang it Nick, now that song is playing in my head!

RuehYinn – Appreciation is important. Touche.

CoFFeeFreak – Reversed? You have managed to confuse me!

Olie – Of course we have similar issues, we’re both human. When a men merajuk and pulls away, are you sure that his a man and not a boy?

xin – Well, we’re certainly conscious of our own identity, as opposed to our appearance. Manja and attention seeker works both ways la. Men can’t pick signals, hence you need to be direct. We’re not embrangled like women. No codes, just say it.

kaDusMama – Not compliment, but appreciation. 2 different things.

Yes Yes… men needs to be appreciated and admired and adored and to think that women needs to be re-assured over and over again.. Men has the same issues… ha,ha,ha…
Pulling away because merajuk women didn’t show how they appreciate or admire them in fact we do… we show it by showing our LOVE gestures! DOH! LoLs…. that’s how women appreciate men… ) besides being verbal… I like to do both…
But hey gals.. when the men merajuk and pulls away.. let him be.. he’s the one who is blind enough to see we are talking to them true love gestures to appreciate them… ))

As long as you are human, I think we need appreciation. We appreciate appreciation. But I have to add, many people, men or women leave relationship when their expectation unmet. That is called disappointment. RuehYinn’s last blog post..Kota Kinabalu: Pulau Manukan and Pulau Sapi in Color…

how about women do not know if you appreciate us or not?

currently i am sorta in the mid of “should I start something with this dude, or should I just walk away” with someone..

I don’t expect him to call me 24-7, in fact I would go bonkers. And we know you are tired… hey, we are tired too… but it would be nice to once in a while, in your spare time to reply an sms.. and when I mean an sms, I really mean ONE sms. Or return a call when you can. OR.. even if you are tired, then say so lah. Don’t just ignore the call and later say, “I was lazy.”

kinda sakit hati right? Imagine if it was reserved?

I think all rules to relationships should work both ways….
