		<description>&lt;p&gt;All your answers are great, here&#039;s a couple of mine:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;1. Men can be as insecure as us, just hide it better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. They like it when we care enough to cry. Great.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. They do notice the small things we do for them, just don&#039;t always acknowledge it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. He will never leave his girlfriend/wife for you, which is better in the long run.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. How to light a bbq, check my oil, change a tire, etc. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. We may be emotional, but they are moody with much more frequency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. If we have a problem, they look for a solution. Pure venting is sometimes best for girl friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Its okay to have highs AND lows in a relationship, it&#039;s a part of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Whether we are a present or a past girlfriend, they consider us their territory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. If you want to have a relationship with this man, make him wait/work for it. IE. Don&#039;t sleep with him on the first date, it doesn&#039;t always work out in your favor. &lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;1. If they accuse you of being capable of something (i.e. getting into a new relationship 2 weeks after a breakup) it&#039;s because they&#039;re capable of doing it themselves, and they will do it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. They will always be effortlessly great at the beginning of the relationship, but it eventually fades&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. They can be moody&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. If they love you they will say it, if they fall out of love with you they will say &quot;I don&#039;t know&quot; if you ask&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Men understand the concept of not putting themselves in compromising situations, that they chose to do it is another matter . . . &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. I am responsible for my own happiness&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Cuddling makes life better&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Timing is everything&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. A relationship has cycles, if you work through the lows the highs will be even sweeter&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. When you&#039;re angry at each other say what&#039;s bothering you without destroying each other&#039;s self-esteem&lt;/p&gt;</description>
