Mistakes men make in a relationship can cause serious problems if they are allowed to go unchecked! If things seem to be a little rocky recently, it could be for any number of reasons, but it’s a well-known fact that women prefer their partners to be sensitive to what the problem is without having it explained to them. This is, of course, horrifically unfair – but the chances are that with a little consideration you’ll be able to work out what’s wrong without having to consult a psychic. Here, for your convenience, is a quick run-down of the most common slip-ups that men make at all stages in a relationship. Read them. Learn them. Don’t let yourself get trapped by them.

Forgetting Something
This is a common thing for blokes, have you forgotten her birthday, an anniversary, or an activity that you said you’d do together. If you don’t think you’ve forgotten any of the “big three” there, forgetfulness probably isn’t your problem.
Not Spending Enough Time with Her
Maybe she misses you. Consider whether you might spend less time together now than you did earlier on in the relationship. Even if this isn’t the problem, organising a surprise evening together can go a long way towards getting you out of whatever other trouble you might be in!
Not Talking
This may be the most common of all the mistakes men make in relationships. You need to make sure you regularly have a decent chat with your girlfriend. Find out how her day was and tell her about yours. That way, if something is bothering either of you it can be brought out into the open right away.
Being Reckless
Women need security. If you have been engaging in some reckless activities lately your lady friend might feel like her security has been taken away – which can make the whole relationship very tense.
This is linked to the point above. Although women can feel insecure if their partners are being reckless, they can also feel insecure if their partner doesn’t occasionally show some power in the relationship. Make a decision without consulting her. Organise something. Whatever you do though, don’t ask her permission to be confident!
Keeping Secrets
Women know what you’re thinking. It’s not just a myth! Studies have shown that women are much better at reading body language than men. If you have a secret, she may not know what it is but she’ll know you’re hiding something. In the long run it’s usually much better just to get things out in the open and face the consequences. Don’t be timid, remember?
If we’re honest, everyone makes mistakes. Ultimately, if you’re really not sure what’s wrong and you don’t want to hazard a guess, then talking to your partner is a good start. Try saying something like, “I’ve noticed that things haven’t felt quite right recently – and I really care about you and I want us to be happy. Will you please tell me what’s wrong?” If she then says, “You forgot our anniversary,” then you should have read this article through before you asked her…
