00:00Men, her emotions are not an attack on you.
00:03So long as you keep seeing it as an attack on you,
00:07you will do some very predictable things.
00:10You'll defend yourself, you'll blame her back,
00:12and then you'll make the whole thing about you.
00:14And then she'll feel completely dropped.
00:16So I think you don't want this, and she doesn't want this.
00:20So the way around this is when she brings her emotions to you,
00:24i.e. pain, sadness, anger, frustration, resentment, hurt, fear,
00:28you listen until she feels understood.
00:32And then if you're in a good partnership with a good woman,
00:34she will, of course, be interested in what your experience is like.
00:38And she'll do the same for you.
00:39The first move here, especially if you hurt her just through your actions,
00:43whatever that was, intentional or not,
00:45you've got to allow her to express herself.
00:48And you've got to learn how to hold her pain and her feelings
00:51in such a way that she feels like you give a shit.
00:54And then you can move on.
00:55It's so much faster.
00:56I can't tell you how many times I've fucked this one up.
00:58Save yourself a lot of headache and heartache
01:00and begin to take all of her emotions as an opportunity
01:05to be with her experience.
01:08She's going to trust you more.
01:09Ultimately, you're going to get more connection and less drama.
01:12And it's going to feel way better to both of you.
