jspl Class Tuesday

In class on Tuesday we discussed how men and women communicate differently. I noticed this to be true when I talk to my mom. A lot of times I will tell her about something that is bothering me and she always trys to get me advice. Sometimes I just want her to listen and tell me anything that I should try to make the situation better. Despite my mom and I being close I learned that telling her things always comes with advice. So I have actually started telling one of my guy friends all my problems. He just listens when I need to him. I feel like womens natural instincts could actually make my mom and I's relationship not as strong. On the flip side, I know whenever I need multiple perspectives on things my mom will always offer those to me.
