How, without talking, does an issue get resolved so that it's no longer an issue to either party, then?

It has nothing to do with gender.

It doesn’t get resolved without talking. Pushing doesn’t help.

Women cause nothing but trouble.
If her "big deals" were really nothing, then why didn't you just put your [bleep] laundry away? (Not important to you does not equal not important to everyone...) Compromise much?

Hopefully they've figured it out after 6-7 years.

Mod cut: Orphaned (quoted post has been deleted).

I don't think male/male relationships are any less prone to drama than female/female relationships or male/female relationships or transgendered relationships, etc. This isn't a gender specific/sexual orientation specific thing, as much as it's a human specific thing. I've heard so many straight people say things like ''I wish I was gay! There's not as much drama with men/women as there are with the women/men I've dated'' and I've also heard those in same sex relationships say ''I'm going straight! There doesn't seem to be as much drama with women as there is with the guy's that I've dated!''.

At the end of the day, Women do create drama, men create drama, humans create drama. Obviously not ALL of them, but this is a human thing, not a gender thing.

I suspect this stonewalling is the reason more women than men actually file for divorce.

Guys, replying to anything prior to this page...this is an old thread, resurrected. Good chance some of those folks aren't here to make conversation anymore. Just sayin'. Sometimes I wonder how people even find these dinosaur convos to excavate, but whateva.

Anyone who believes that women make drama, and men don't, is not someone I would want to be in a relationship with. Just that simple.

That is a person who invalidates women's feelings, which leads to emotional abuse. Like it's cool when a guy loses his temper and acts nutty or gets jealous and mad or whatever, throws some sort of a fit, but if a woman wants to calmly discuss how she feels about something, he rolls his eyes and plays the "no drama" card? Sounds like a kind of gaslighting to me. I'll pass.

Drama is human. Some level of it is normal. Having feelings and needing to process and communicate them is normal. Having zero self control and turning things into a huge, noisy production, does not have to be. Both men and women (who lack self control and are immature) can be prone to over the top displays of emotionality, and be difficult to deal with because of it. And anger is an emotion, and it counts.

My ex husband used to slam doors and make a big NON-verbal racket when he was mad or upset. To me that is the worst kind of drama.

Yep. Mine was mad at our kid once, so he grabbed a full case of 24 cans of Dr. Pepper and hurled it down the open space of the stairs to the basement, where it smashed into the wall and exploded all over our kid (who was then about 14) and his computer. This was doubtless over some trifling piece of "disrespect" that our teenage son dished out to him, like teenagers DO.

No self control.

Such drama.

No wonder I'm with a chill older philosophical Buddhist type guy now. Violent tantrums will never again be permitted in my home, period. Zero tolerance. Nope.
