伤感情之举-唠叨，各种唠叨

Nag¹, nag nagging²

唠叨，各种唠叨

Yes, he always forgets to take the rubbish and it really gets your goat, but nagging him isn't going to make things any better.

 

Men tune³ out the sound of women's voices when they start to irritate them so it becomes a vicious cycle – you ask him to do something, he zones out, you get frustrated⁴ and ask him again and again and infinitum causing a build up of resentment⁵ and anger on both sides.

 

Instead of demanding he do things in a nagging tone,try a more positive approach. Give him a cuddle, smile, look him in the eye and ask if he'd mind taking the rubbish out later.

 

You're much more likely to get what you want with a warm approach and he won't resent you for asking.
