I mean.
Like nothing is black and white.
I think the reason guys have so much trouble relating to American women is because we put 0 effort really trying to think from their perspective.
Guys, generally, are doers. We like to be doing things, or at least watching something like an action movie. I constantly bring this up with my gf, so she can see things from my perspective, too. I'll watch her shows, but we also have to do my shows on the weekends. And, ill sit through hers, but I'll "joke" about how terrible they are sometimes, but I'll also bring her shows up when I think about something that happened in them because I know she watches them in large part, to have something to socialize about.
And, like things suck because there's all the excuses in the world to ignore your partners present state of mind because people are working and doing chores. And, I'll point this out, also. But, we just take one day at a time, and try to feel and think towards a copasetic duality with our partners. It's not black and white, I'm this, she's that. Were constantly evolving, and I take more responsibility for how the relationship flows because I'm in a better position to because I have more energy to apply toward problem solving.
Cheating is usually a symptom, not the underlying problem. And, some people would rather cheat on the down low, but I wouldn't kid yourself into thinking that makes a stronger relationship, lol.
