Most people venting about work for example, want to vent and not usually for the other person to "fix" anything. I've been on both sides of it. It's convenient to attribute this dynamic to gender rather than understanding an individual. Growth-minded relationships use this sort of friction to build stronger instead of break down. This can be the very thing that helps OP + gf change trajectory to better understand and build each other up. | |

In less sensitive hands that video could be the cataclysm for a breakup. But it illustrates the "men are from Mars" and "women are from Venus" cliché quite well. Oh, and it is funny. | |
