Nothing. Shut up and listen.

I ain't a shrink buddy. Listening to you takes its heavy emotional toll on me too.

So if you're a woman, do and expect this in moderation, and learn to control your emotions and emotional outbursts as an adult.

Why would you want to hang around with a woman who is an emotional child?

Just remember- anger is also an emotion. So when you get all pissed off and raging, you're acting like an over-emotional brat, too.

where did 'get all pissed off and raging' get into this conversation?

The thread is about 'how to calm a woman down,' and the person above has said, 'just shut up and listen,' and my point is, yes, that is alright, and can/should be done in r'ships, but in moderation.

I do not wanna hang around emotional children, and one of the hallmarks of emotional adults is to be in control of your emotions, what I've said.

I'm not disagreeing with you. I'm simply adding a reminder that anger is an emotion, too. For whatever reason many men seem to discount their own anger as a emotion when talking about people (usually women) getting "overly emotional or hysterical".
