Both men and women handle their friendly and romantic relationships in different ways. Men usually try to avoid getting too emotional, while women actively make things excessively personal. That's why there is specific relationship advice for women out there. There are just some things that wouldn't even make sense to men that makes perfect sense to women, and vice versa.
The biggest and possibly most important bit of relationship advice for women is this: Do not take everything personally. Men don't think like women in terms of depth. Most of the things men notice or say or think are on the surface: What you see or hear is what you get. They're not going to bounce around a subject just to keep you 100 percent comfortable unless they know for sure what to avoid when talking to you. Try your best to take most things at face value because chances are, that's all they're meant to be seen as.
Don't be overly possessive. Men like a woman who loves them and wants them to themselves, but there is no need to push your love to full-blown possessiveness. You're your own person and so is he, so treat him the way you want him to treat you.
Men aren't mind readers, so don't act like they're supposed to know what's on your mind all the time. Women tend to get caught up in the illusion that what they want is blatantly obvious even though all they've done to express themselves is drop a few subtle hints here and there. Thinking a man is going to understand your vague allusions to your wants and needs is only going to hurt you and confuse him in the long run.
Don't impose your opinions and beliefs on him. You might be absolutely sure that what you think is right, but really it might not be for him. Consider his feelings and wants just like you want him to do for you. You may be very proud of your opinions, but he probably is too. You don't like it very much when people challenge what you believe, why would you think he wouldn't get hurt or offended? He's not going to take arguing and belittling forever just because he cares about you.
The problem with relationship advice for women, or men even, is that there are so many things that either person in the relationship could be doing wrong and either intentionally or unintentionally hurting the other person. At the end can both of you take a step back and be happy with the things you did or said to each other that day? Sometimes that's what you need to do in order to truly discover the problem.
