Communication is Hard

It is said that men only say 30,000 words a day but women can speak 300,000 (or something like that, I can't remember the exact figure!) I'm quite fine with that except when men shorten a 10 word sentence into a 3 word grunt. I then find myself filling in the gaps to make it into a more comprehensible 10 word sentence; and because I still don't quite get how the male brain works, I inevitable get the original intent all wrong! That, is when trouble starts!

Sometimes, I get so fed up I end up not talking. I think, what's the point, it's going to end with everybody being upset anyway. But being an extrovert, not talking will cause me to shrivel up within, I'd die, emotionally.

Perhaps I'm being overly dramatic about the whole issue, but I've been suffering this way for 15 years, I think I'm entitled to rant about in my own blog!

I think the most depressing thing is that I can't see if there'll be positive changes in the future. My only consolation is that I can still pray. My man may seem hopeless to me, but my God is not!
