WHAT HE SAYS: “Uh huh. Right. Yeah。”
　　WHAT YOU HEAR: “I couldn’t be less interested in what you’re saying。”
　　WHAT HE MEANS: “I want to hear your story, but it’s been 10 minutes and still no punch line2.” Men don’t process information in the lengthy way that women do, so telling him a story in the drawn-out way you would to one of your girlfriends isn’t going to work. In short, cut to the chase and you’ll get more of a reaction。

　　他说：“嗯哼。对。是的。”
　　你的理解：“我对你所说的事情一点都不感兴趣。”
　　他的意思是：“我想听你的故事，但十分钟过去了你还是没说出个所以然来。”女人处理的信息冗长，而男人不是这样，所以像跟你的一个姐妹淘闲聊那样没完没了地讲给他听是行不通的。总之，说话直截了当，你会得到更多回应。
