F 16 –It is our form of communication

M 18 – to convey a specific message especially when I need her attention

 

Question 4: what challenges do you encounter in communicating with your significant other?

M 22- At times she does not take me seriously and keeps ignoring me. This is so annoying.

F 19 – He fails to take me seriously especially when I use the verbal communication only. He assumes that he is always right and that all I need is more of his attention

F 16 – Distance is one barrier since body communication is often misleading whenever the other partner is far off.

M 18 – I am at times confused when she uses both verbal and body language because these forms are confusing without clear differentiation

 

Conclusion:

The major difference in communication between the genders is the varied perception of the purpose of communication. The females in the study communicated to their associates to improve their social relations and enhance their relationships. Men, on the other hand, preferred verbal communication to put forth dominance and derive tangible results. In general, the female participants were more expressive, tentative, and polite in their communication, unlike men who were categorically assertive, and powerful. Communication from the female gender was realized to be more interactive with the romantic associate while men preferred their independence to communication. Talking about problems and issues was easily possible among the women as an approach of creating intimate bonds with the intimate associate.
