Women's #1 Need in a Relationship
In this podcast, we discuss Jeff and Shaunti’s first chapter of For Men Only. Using statistical data, the Feldhahn’s determined that a woman’s number one relationship need is assurance.
“In their groundbreaking classic, For Men Only, Jeff and Shaunti Feldhahn reveal the eye-opening truths and simple acts that will radically improve your relationship with the woman you love. For example:
· Why she can’t “just not think about” something that’s bothering her
· How to get her real answers without games
· How your provider instinct can actually cause her heartache – and what to do about it
· Why “not tonight, honey” may not mean what you think
· Why listening to her feelings is so hard for a guy, and a fix-it plan that works
· Why her “I do” at the altar will always mean, “do you?” and the answer that rocks her world
Now updated with the latest scientific research to explain the fabulous female brain plus an all-new chapter that shows how to decode her most baffling behavior.”

Jeff notes that seven out of ten women feel that their love relationship is “occasionally to always on their minds.” And when women feel insecure about their love relationship, the feelings can be intense--from feeling anxious, preoccupied, emotionally withdrawn, undervalued, to full out depressed.
“Do you love me?” she asks. “Sure,” he says, “I told you so at our wedding.”
— For Men Only
Many men may be surprised to know that women need to hear the three magic words often in order to feel comfortable in their love relationship. Squabbles, disagreements, rude behaviour, bad attitudes get women all tangled up and feeling like “things are not okay.” It’s difficult to just ignore these behaviours and to not take them personally. Women need to talk it out before fears get a hold of them and make the situation worse.
