This is hard thing for most men to do but the cost is minimal. Once you learn this technique you will have a less stressful life but you will have to be Ok with lying.

Here is it. Pay attention to your woman. Ask her about her day when you really don't care. Listen to all the drama she is going through with her girl friends when you don't really care. Take her out to dinner or a show and dress up (it's only for a couple of hours).

Now here's the clincher. Turn on a sporting event you don't watch and when she comes in the room make sure she notices you turn off the TV and ask her what's on her mind. Let her sit next to you and rest her head on your shoulder and just listen.

The longer you can lie to yourself the longer you can be happy and make her happy on the cheap.

Its not what I would consider lying or "on the cheap" as you like to call it.

Sometimes you've got to give in to get the same in return, its called compromise. So, good for you.

Seriously, why bother? There is so much booty to be had without having to care at all. Let her find someone who gives a flip and you can find someone who doesn't.

Women are simple. You don't need to buy them expensive gifts, just be there for them emotionally. (Good sex helps too )

OP, that's a very cynical attitude. If you don't really care, find someone more suitable. Yes, your approach will keep things going for a while, most likely, but it's insincere and manipulative.

If you are sincere, then this is a good thing.

Ha ha ha ha...impossible! She will eventually catch in and/or she will get pissed because you care too much...i.e. "why are we always talking about my feelings", "I want to talk about you", "I want to solve my own problems." LOL, its not as easy as you described because of raging hormones, mood swings and inexhaustible supply of tears.

I personally feel the best solution is, to mock a Kenny Rogers song, "You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em." On day's "when to fold 'em", simply stay out of the way.
