So once again I traverse the deep seas of my innate passion that at times submerges itself beneath a calm n naive facade but is raging n thrashing in the realm of my heart !! And so the mystery of Catgirl unfolds once again to all who are still mesmerized by my perseverance and many more who are yet to be in awe of it !! Catgirl working undercover as a teacher N Blogger henceforth pronounces herself a hard-core feminist !!! A girl out to protect the "woman-cause' in the world of self-loving male; A girl who would do anything she is capable of to restore the image of women which has been tarnished, even in the modern society ! Catgirl Strikes again !!! (my logo since 12 years)

Why men withdraw their love for some time!

My topic today is the “Cave Behavior of Men”- Why men suddenly become silent and stop sharing!

The first 3 months in any relationship have been proven to be the best by all writers in the world. It is called the perfect phase. Both of you agree on many important (though broader only) aspects of life. You share fun times, adventures, a li’l secret from the past, and your desires to live a happy life together. Time flies by. You chat, talk on phone for hours into midnight. Love blossoms and you feel like screaming out aloud to the world that you have met your perfect man/woman!
Facebook status is updated with lovey-dovey messages, eating-out is common, and all ur girlfriends know about this guy.
And then the blossoming sun starts heating up when the initial 3 months pass by!
One fine day yo realize that your man is not sharing as much as he used to, he seems distant-though not rude- but indifferent to your questioning. Even if u put forth a problem of yours which would have normally engaged him in a conversation , he just utters syllables like "Ok”…"Hmm”.. "Will see”.. and You are aghast!
There r 2 ways how u THINK u should deal with it
  1.          Ask him "Darling r u upset? Is your mood off because of me?”
  2.      “Ok. Fine. If u don’t wanna tell just go to hell.!”
Problem is both approaches are wrong. Your guy is  trying to focus on some of his urgent problem and he needs time to go ‘into his cave’ and think about it. Do not push him, cajole him "plzz bugs bunny talk to me " or intimidate him  "if u won’t talk then…"  . And plz don’t think its because of you –if it really isn’t.


Men don’t like to share their problems coz it makes them feel vulnerable. Just like women like to discuss and share their problems men like to think about it alone. At those times he would be thankful to you if you can take care of yourself and stop being an emotional burden for him. Give him space. Do your own thing. Don’t pester him. No matter how Great a communication u had wid him in the past he will have his ‘cave days’. If u wud follow him into his cave insisting that he shares he can be very rude to you. It’s an old  tribe-women’s theme “Don’t follow him into the cave or u will get burnt by the dragon!”. For example, he might NOT want to say those things like “leave me alone” , “ why r u looking for trouble. I didn’t say anything”, “Just knock off” .. n blah blah…but he will say it!

So the best thing at these times is to really ‘leave him alone’. Don’t whine/complain and most of all don’t blame yourself. Call a girlfriend (but not to cry over his behavior), go to the parlor, listen to music and wait (at least 1 week) for him to come back to his normal self….
And then how to ask him what happened to his problem. I will tell u in my next post!

Oh n yes Don’t punish him for coming back by retaliating what he said to you. This might make him retreat into his cave for a longer period!

Do you wan to know what to do when your man has mood problems?

Do you realize how women ruin the relationship by ourselves?

Aw I love this post. It is so true. Men definitely don't like to talk about their feelings, but I think sometimes they fail to tell the girl that something is bothering them, so the girl just assumes something is wrong with her and that she has upset him. Although men like to keep to themselves, I don't think there is anything wrong with that, but I think it is important for them to actually tell the girl that they are going through something and that they need space. That way the girl can stop jumping to conclusions and give him his space.

Men are strange creatures!

Your post is really good and so true. Great insight into men's minds!
Men don't show their feelings - they have been told to be strong.
It took me ages to understand my husband silences. Before I was blaming myself and asking him again and again what is the problem. Obviously he was more and more rude with me.
Now I go on with my life when he feels this way, or just sit down with him in silence.
After a while he is able to talk to me a bit and we figure things out together when and if possible.

Love your blog by the way, don't comment always but enjoy reading. Stay well CatGirl.

Guys don't like to talk about feelings the way a woman does, they definitely need their space sometimes to sit and mull things over.

men, dating and relationships

aneebaba said...

:-) Really liked this post Sis CG - seems like I've read this somewhere before though ;-)

I think it's true, we do tend to deal with our issues internally for a bit (one week though? I hope not! lol) before we share, if we share at all. Whether it's about feeling vulnerable or maybe we don't want to seem weak or that we need help, seeing as we are told to be strong, etc. Yet, I think it is healthy to share one's problems, especially if it is with one's spouse or in some cases for others, their girlfriend.Either way, it can lead to tension, as you mentioned, so you ladies need to be sure how to deal with your man. :-)

Well, onto part 2!

Unknown said...

ya ur ri8......waiting for one week is ok.....bt i waited fr 4 longgg months...cn u blv dis?dat is 120 days.................!!!!!!!!!! how long cn u keep d patience wd u?

CATGIRL !! said...

Rachna.. the minimum waiting time according to proven men pdychology is 3 weeks and maximum is 6-8 weeks. if he doesn't see u anyyywhere around him like neither in person, nor sms/text, mutual friends, weddings, park etc. (inshort completely invisible u r to him)..then he MUST call u on the 6th week, if he doesn't wait till the 8th week and after that u can be SURE to move on...
LOOK men's brains - the left side- teases him after 6 weeks if he misses sumthing in his life. his emotions appear after 6 weeks for any person so if he hasnt contacted u till then u need to move on.,, if u've EVER contacted him in between u need to again go on a 6-8 weeks trial ...too hard to swallow a pil,,BUT THAT IS IT!
