| Old school romance, is still possible... |
MYTH #1 – Men are unemotional. . From childhood, boys are taught that showing emotion signals weakness. So we learn to wear a macho mask. We hide our feelings and are less verbal than women. In fact, a word count study showed that women say 25,000 words a day while men utter less than half about 12,000.
INSIGHT #1 – A man may shift his emotions into an acceptable gear of expression. For example, sports events are safe places where we men give free rein to their feelings. Players don’t hesitate to indulge in exuberant high-fives and hugs.
It isn’t that fellows are unfeeling. We've been trapped by societal beliefs that it’s unmanly to openly hurt, cry, or mourn.
MYTH #2 – A hot body is the main attraction in a woman.
INSIGHT #2 – A stable, happy woman is more important to a man than appearance.

MYTH #3 – Men are incapable of commitment.
Although a man may be afraid to commit, it doesn’t mean he can’t. There may be many reasons for his reticence:
He may have unresolved pain from the past. If he’s a child of divorce, he’s got emotional scars. If his heart has been broken, his wounds may still be raw.
He’s uncomfortable taking a risk. There are no guarantees a relationship will stand the course of time. He may be hesitant to invest himself in the unknown.
He may think commitment is equivalent to being trapped. He may fear the emotional dependence that develops over time.
As further evidence of the capacity to commit, consider research results by The Huffington Post. Market analysts polled 250,000 men regarding dating, communication, romance, and marriage. When asked if they would cheat on their partner, 81 percent said they would never, even if they could sidestep being caught.

INSIGHT #3 – Men appreciate loyalty. We want to feel valued and loved. Once our fears are understood, they can be addressed. A man whose anxieties have been resolved won’t drag his feet on the path to the altar. this I know very well, because I got married at an age that is younger than my youngest son is right now I as I' writing this blog post.... I saw it as a commitment and taking a Oath...of honor.

MYTH #4 – When he falls asleep right after making love, it means the relationship isn’t strong.
After lovemaking, a man’s body chemistry changes. Three hormones are released that usher in sleep. Prolactin, oxytocin, and GABA all trigger the need to conk out. For a woman, cuddling after coupling increases the sense of intimacy. For a man, it requires effort to stay awake and snuggle.
INSIGHT #4 – When a man immediately nods off after lovemaking, it means he’s happy and satisfied. Don't question why...
MYTH #5 – Men don’t like being asked on a date.
In the past, women who took the initiative to ask for a date were seen as desperate. Men were charged with doing the hard part of making first contact. Thankfully, dating etiquette has since evolved. Match.com has released the results of its “Singles in America 2015″ survey. Polling 5,600 singles revealed that 90% of the guys were fine with being asked out.
