Men Do Not Think Like Women!
Jasbina Ahluwalia asks Brian Howie, author of How to Find Love in 60 Seconds: Wow. Has anything surprised you?
You mentioned the situations where you concluded that text does not work for some age groups but text is better than phone at very early stages from the younger women in the South.
Is there anything else that surprised you that you’ve learned over the course of these 49 shows? You had that hypothesis that was inherently disproved by what you heard from the men and women in the audience. Was there anything else?

Ladies Know Men Do Not Think Like Women
I’m surprised at how women understand that a man does not think the same way they do and don’t care, and forget.
They assume that he knows what they’re thinking. They assume that their body language is readable.
Men Do Not Think Like Women: Guide Him
They know that he doesn’t, yet they still go about their dating lives assuming that the man knows what they’re thinking. I think that’s just crazy.
Why do you think that is? Do you have a hypothesis as to why they might be intellectually aware of this but not quite putting it into practice?
Brian Howie
Again, a lot of people don’t take on personal responsibility for their own dating fates.
Take Responsibility: Men Do Not Think Like Women
People will say, “Guys are jerks. Women are crazy.” It can’t be that you didn’t say it right. It must be that he didn’t hear it right or vice versa. It comes back to communication, confidence, hope and leaving your past behind.
There’s one thing that women say a lot. They’re not wrong to say it.
They say, “I would rather be alone than be in a bad relationship.” I completely agree with that.
However, men never say that. That is because men don’t look at that as the only two choices. Men look at the choices of good relationship, bad relationship and no relationship. They are three even things.
Men Do Not Think Like Women: Show Green Lights
When they go on a date, men are looking for green lights. The women are looking for red flags.
A lot of people are nervous on the first couple of dates. You have to give people chances. You have to work through it. You have to do all of those things.
I love that. It’s almost like the guys are trying to rule in and the women are using those things to rule out.
Brian Howie
I totally agree. That’s a good way to put it.
