Of all the essays I have written (well over 300 now), this is, perhaps, the most important one. Not only does it point the finger at men for the trouble that relationships have, but far more important than that, it clearly and specifically discusses the essential elements of good relationships. If this essay doesn’t stir the stew of conversation, whisk the meringue of discussion, and whip the batter of debate, nothing probably will.
Share your And Then Some Story about troubled relationships. Have you discovered other essential elements of good relationships not discussed in this essay? Have you discovered techniques or methods that have helped you overcome relationship problems? Are the problems discussed in this essay familiar to you? See the specifics about sharing your And Then Some Story in the section that follows the excerpt below.

The Message Men Don't Want to Hear
by Richard L. Weaver II
Excerpt:
Men can point the finger at others, hold them responsible, blame, condemn or find fault with them, but, in the end, they are the ones. They are responsible. It is what they do or don’t do, what they feel or don’t feel, and how they choose to communicate or not that makes the difference in relationships. They can say, “Well that’s just the way I am, deal!” or “I’m a male, what more do I need to say?” or “You knew what I was like when you married me, why did you marry me?”
