A 'mental' note we should all be making

12 May 2011: Okay so this is kind of a follow-up post on yesterday's post re: the Men are from Mars Women are from Venus book. I find this one really interesting, and makes a lot of sense! Everyone should be making this 'mental' note so the world can be a better place between 'martians' and 'venusians'. 
Basically, men and women have different emotional needs - there are 12 of them. A woman primarily needs Caring, Understanding, Respect, Devotion, Validation and Reassurance. Whereas a man primarily needs Trust, Acceptance, Appreciation, Admiration, Approval and Encouragement. Each of these needs work in accordance with one another as you can see in the above image. Give a man his primary need and he will automatically return with a woman's primary needs, similarly give a woman her primary needs and she will automatically return with the man's primary needs! It's all about maintaining that balance. Give and take :)
