Mixed Messages In Relationships by MrsChima(f): 12:57am On Jul 11, 2012 |
How do you feel when your partners send you mixed messages? Do you feel that mixed messages is the same as being dishonest? Which gender is most famous for sending mixed messages to their partner and why? I will use the most common mixed message from the male gender. Men have made fuss that they are the "man" and that they are strong and tolerable physically BUT on the same hand complains about women they are in a relationship with....not giving them fresh pair of drawers as a gift. However, I have seen women who have TRIED to give their boyfriends/husbands simple gift and they complain that the woman is trying to take his place as a "man". What is up with mixed messages in relationships? Can people be straight forward and stick to what they want without flipping back and forth when it suits them? Your thoughts? 1 Like |

Sending mixed messages is,to a large extent,dishonesty. Its rather tempting to say it only shows insecurity. But the truth is dishonesty. The person sending mixed msgs knows that their partner is being kept in a constant state of flux. Never really knowing what to do to please the other person. So,yes,dishonesty is it! Its more in males than in females,because of the male chauvinism factor. In females, sending mixed msgs is more common in those who have been traumatized in relationships or tutored in relationship matters by other traumatized females. 3 Likes |

Misfiring signals can be done knowingly and unintentionally as well. So saying that it is always latched with insecurity wouldn't exactly be correct. Take for instance, we women place a high value on communication. A woman can get really riled up when a lover doesn't call as much as is expected of a person that supposedly loves her to bits. Whereas, he and a lot of men may view the call as functional rather than emotional, and would rather call only when there's a reason to call. But of cos, insecurity is chief where the signals sent, were mixed intentionally. Women on the one hand, are really insecure by nature. We are risk adverse for the most part and by sending mixed signals, we want our men to demonstrate their level of interest in us. Take for example; a lady who gives a certain kind of green light to some guy across the hall, can instantaneously turn her attention to some other, when he crosses over to start a conversation. To us, it seems to be less appealing to be an overly enthusiastic single person, who appears to be excited to meet someone. Cos it might come across the communication channel as overly desperate, which doesn't exactly make a great first impression. Men on the other hand, rarely say or do opposite to their intentions, but still show insecurities all thesame.....to lesser degrees i believe. They can go as far as to bully a girl they're interested in, to garner her attention, or can pretend to have complete interest in some stupid conversation with some chick in a gathering, thereby ignoring their girlfriend, just to get her jealous and seek her attentiveness. Dealing with mixed signals doesn't require much though. Except taking your time to figure them out, approach your partner about them, and then reassuring them as to why they never should have been sent....if they were sent intentionally. Really, it would be better if people demonstrated more confidence and decisiveness in their actions and body language and avoided misfiring signals. But then again, the peril of it adds to some of the excitement of the 'hunt' and builds intrigue for male and female relationships. It would be so soo uncoool, if we always knew what the other person was thinking or what they meant by a certain action. 6 Likes |
