“As you’re learning, when a man gets overwhelmed he shuts down...When a man does this, it’s perceived as a rejection to most women. While this isn’t a man’s intention to reject and not support the woman emotionally, it’s just a natural thing for men to do. Women want to share their feelings with a man at the wrong time. While the woman will feel better when she ‘unloads’ her feelings, if a man isn’t in a relaxed state of mind, all this is going to do is have him withdraw from you, adding to the wall of resistance he’s already built up.”
