Don't Expect Him to Relate to You Like Your Best Girlfriends

Your friendship with your man can, and should, grow and mature to a place of deep love and companionship.
However, it will not be like your friendships with your girlfriends. It will be different in virtually every way.
Remember that we have talked in several episodes about the fundamental difference between men and women. Friendships are another area where men and women differ.
Generally speaking, men develop friendships through shared activity. They relate to one another and get to know one another by doing things together.
Women, generally speaking, get to know one another by sharing their feelings and thoughts.
Men share activities initially to develop relationships and may share words later on.
Women share their words to develop relationships from the start.
Can men and women become Best Friends? Not without a great deal of give & take on both parts.
What are women looking for in a Best Friend?
What are men looking for in a Best Friend?
I don’t think of my wife as my Best Friend. Our relationship is much, much more than a Best Friend.
My Best Friends, over the years, have changed from season to season. My wife has not.
It takes significantly longer to develop intimacy with a spouse than with a friend because the nature of the intimacy you are creating is very different. Also, the challenges the relationship faces are significantly different.
