Nag, nag nagging

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 tune 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 frustrated and ask him again and again and infinitum causing a build up of resentment 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.
