And so women tend to trust words a lot more than men do.

Men kind of just look at behaviors because that's how they bond amongst themselves.

women tend to believe words, right?

Because for evolutionary reasons, we were supposed to believe the words that men told us.

And so what's happening now is that a man could say he's busy and therefore doesn't have time.

And a lot of times women can't discern, is he really busy or am I just a low priority?

And one of the ways I tell people to recognize the difference is that no matter how busy a man is,

A man who's genuinely interested in you will give you clarity on his busiest days.

You will know exactly what you mean to him.

A man who thinks of you as a low priority, you'll continue in this confusion.

You'll attach to words.

He'll tell you excuses.

You'll minimize your feelings only to keep that attachment.

And so I think it's always important to go back.

Do you have clarity?

If you don't have clarity, this might be a misalignment.

It's a capacity issue at that point.

So he really wants to.

And a lot of the situations, the desire is really there.

It's really genuine.
