If you observe a bit...
Men listen differently than women do.
Women tend to nod their head and make comments, such as "ah, uh-huh, wow, yes, right" during conversation to indicate they are listening and involved.
Men tend to listen like a wall, quietly observing until the other person finishes their statement.
Being sensitive to this difference in how men and women communicate will improve communication between partners.
