From the book Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, I quote,

"Without the awareness that we are supposed to be different, me and women are at odds with each other. We usually become angry or frustrated with the opposite sex because we have forgotten this important truth. We expect them to be more like ourselves. We desire them to "want what we want" and "feel the way we feel".

"We mistakenly assume that if our partners love us they will react and behave in certain ways-the way we react and behave when we love someone. This attitude sets us up to be disappointed again and again and prevents us from taking the necessary time to communicate lovingly about our differences."

Very true (:
