Romantic relationships reveal a lot. Spending each day with a soulmate by your side and opening your heart to them is one of the greatest joys in life, and it also gives valuable lessons about who you are as a human being. But creating a healthy connection involves a mutual give-and-take between partners. So if love floating in the air has led you to discover some weird quirks about yourself, chances are that you learned a great deal about your significant other too.

A question on Reddit recently posted by user Foolu is an excellent example of that. They decided to reach out to the Ask Reddit community and invite men to open up about what things they learned about women only after getting into a relationship. And boy, did they deliver!

We at Bored Panda went through the responses and handpicked some of the most interesting and relatable ones. So continue scrolling to read about the eureka moments from men and hit upvote on your favorite ones! If you’re in the mood for even more things guys learned about their partners only later in life, check out our earlier pieces about it here and right here.

They don't...stop..thinking... at all. I can be sat on the sofa staring at the wall and my mind is a void... occasionally a though may float past, like a discarded crisp packet in the breeze.. then.. back to silence.

Whereas every woman I've been with seems to have a brain like an 80's stock exchange... thats on fire... and full of angry murder hornets.... so much activity.

A hug. Without trying to initiate anything. A hug without touching intimate body parts thinking its funny. Just a hug, it's really not hard. You're way more likely to get fun times later on if you respect her needs in that moment and make her feel valued and heard.

40 Things Men Didn't Know About Women Until They Got Into A Relationship Honestly? How much unnecessary guilt women carry around with them over everything.

First girlfriend I had (18 at the time) everytime I did something nice would either apologize or promise some kind of sexual reward. At first it seemed hot but after a few times in a row I just told her I wasn't doing nice things for a reward but because I cared about her. Made her cry and we talked it out afterwards but yeah after that (and just other things I talked to my female friends about) my eyes were opened to how invalid women seem to feel.

My wife hates her stretch marks. When she's feeling extra down on them I remind her I think they're sexy. I mean we (she) brought life into this world and those stretch marks are a constant reminder of all the memories of her pregnancy. There were bad times for sure, but I see the faces of my babies in those stretch marks. She endured all of that for us. She brought my greatest joys into this world. How can I look at those and not appreciate everything she's done?

40 Things Men Didn't Know About Women Until They Got Into A Relationship My first relationship I always wondered why my girlfriend would rant at me about things like horrible coworkers, stress dealing with projects etc. and then get mad at me when I tried to talk through the problems, break them down and help come up with workable solutions. My second relationship I realised when women do this, they just want to rant and have a hug at the end. They don't want your advice, they don't want a calm, rational discussion about what they can do to make a situation better. Don't pour kerosene on that fire, just let it burn out.

Not only women. Sometimes I need to vent about my idiot colleague or customer, talk about how stupid they are for five to ten minutes, then have a cup of tea or shot of rum (or yell at wall for a minute) and then I can forgot about it. And sometimes I just need to hear myself to see the solutions. After all, how else I can discuss the problem with somebody who knows as much as I do about the problem?

That periods are a f**king nightmare that we should be grateful we never have to experience, and sympathetic to those who have to suffer them regularly: light or heavy they’re a frigging beast to deal with while living a normal day to day life.

That relationships take a f**k ton of work and commitment.

Before I got into one, I thought love and passion was all that was needed.

I couldn't have been more wrong.

A real relationship takes so much practical work.

Love, passion, dedication, and trust are the foundations, yes.

However, there are so many more practical considerations on top of that.

Some prominent examples:- Attachment styles.- Finances.- Distance.- Emotional bandwidth.- Maturity level.- Sacrifice.- Commitment.- Discomfort and confrontation.- Learning how to argue and disagree healthily.- Concerns about intimacy and sex.- Power dynamics.- Place in life and relative experiences, sexual and otherwise.

The list goes on.

Relationships are a LOT of f**king work and as I learned the hard way, you could love someone more than life itself and be willing to die for them and think they are your one true soul mate AND THEY CAN FEEL THE SAME EXACT WAY but if these other things aren't in place, then it will NOT work and you will experience the most soul crushing and excruciating heartbreak of your entire existence.

Both sexes can have insecurities. It's okay as long as they deal with it in a healthy way. Those who deal with it by projecting it on their partner via jealousy and control, are awful. Men and women can both do this. But we all can deal with it on our own and counseling can still be in healthy relationships.

No one should ever use insecurities or things they told you in confidence against them. No matter what gender or what sort of relationship it is. That is a major violation of trust that you might not get back (or at least have to work hard for).

That probably goes for men too. The stereo typical man is always confident and decisive, and a lot of mean struggle a lot in order to fit into that mold, since they consider letting it shine through that they know squat about what they are doing to be a sign of weakness. The facts are that we will have to learn all the way through life, and sometimes there simply is not enough information available to make a good decision. Sometimes admitting that you do not know what to do, and seeking help instead, can result in a hell of a lot better an outcome than making a rash but wrong decisision in order to apear "strong" and capable.

Actually the most valuable thing I’ve learnt is be honest. If I’m going to the pub and know I’ll be back late, just be straight up and tell it like it is. Most girls like honesty (seems fairly obvious doesn’t it). The relationship I’m in now has been by far the best because I don’t try to play games which has got me into trouble in the past. Honesty and transparency. It’s the key.

Of course there is a curfew if we already have plans arranged.

Yes. Asking someone to be on hormones daily just because "it doesn't feel as good with a condom" is far from reasonable. All women are different of course and different birth control works with different people but never expect someone to mess with their body for you.

Snuggles are godlike. Clean and organize EVERYTHING. It’s good for your mental health and it gets you respect. This should be first but: “respect others as you wish to be respected”. Bodily autonomy and general “stuff that bodies do” is outside of everyone’s control, let’s all try to manage as we can and let others know if anything is weird. Talk, try, compromise. For the love of all that is holy: trade. I hate doing laundry, but I love cooking and doing dishes. She hates cooking and dishes and anything mucus related. We traded. I cook, I do dishes, I kill the mice, and I clean / take over all doggo snot stuff. She does the laundry and yells if I attempt to touch laundry to help fold. Point is, be dynamic / adaptive: find the difference, what do you want, what do they want. After that, figure out separate hobbies, you can’t be together forever isolated. Do separate hobbies, have separate friends, have faith in each other, enjoy your time together, and make boundaries serious. After that, it’s all you.

I had to explain to him how it works. But I guess, how would he have known? I never thought about it.

I married her so results may vary.

If you can tell something is wrong and you ask them “Is something wrong? Let’s talk about it.” And they say “No”, that doesn’t mean nothing is wrong and they don’t want to talk. A lot of the time they just need time to process. Let it breathe, give some space, and let them bring it up later instead of being pushy.

I learned that girls find you attractive mostly for what you do and how you do it, rather than how you look. Guys are more visual in that sense. I've been with girls during periods when I thought I looked like s**t but I still managed, somehow, to be attractive in their eyes just from the way I treated others and the way I made them laugh.

This could be because how we evolved. Think about it, what is procreation for man? 5 minutes. For woman it is 9 months of pregnancy (and we all know that pregnant women are kind of fragile) and then caking care of a kid for ~10 years. So men are looking for good physical traits, while women are looking for somebody who will take care of them for next 10 to 20 years. Somebody who will protect them when they are vulnerable. And mostly, somebody who will protect them from other men. Nicolas Lloyd has a theory that this is why dance is so important. What does a good dancer need? Stamina, good coordination, dexterity, reading other people,... it is same list as a good fighter. But do you want somebody who fights a lot? No, that guy will be dead sooner than later, because he will p**s off everyone. You want somebody, who would be a good fighter when needed.

With my first serious girlfriend after college, I learned that I could have a relationship with open and honest communication, owning our emotional reactions, not being manipulative, and putting ourselves in our partner's shoes.

In my next relationship, I learned that not every partner will do that.

It really prepared me for meeting my now-wife, because I could expect that and communicate that expectation to her early on, which laid the foundation for a healthy and communicative relationship.

When my son first started dating his now wife, I swear for at least the first 3 months, any time I asked what they'd been up to, they'd say, "discussing communication skills." Granted, she was taking a class on communication and my son had always been interested in studying and reading about different styles of communication, but they have a lovely relationship and a fast friendship, so I think they did things the right way. Maybe we should all spend time discussing how we communicate, and what our needs and expectations regarding communication from our potential partners are, before entering into a serious relationship of any kind. Wouldn't that be amazing?

When you talk about some problem, it often helps to sit next to each other and look at the problem from same direction instead of sitting on opposing sides of table, because subconsciously you think about it as "us against a problem" instead of "me against you". It is dumb trick, but it works.

She went from happy, to sad, to accusing me of cheating on her with 6 different b**ches (hah, as if. I barely secured a relationship with her), to cuddly, to "Don't touch me, you f**king son of a b**ch!", to "You don't love me anymore".

This was in the span of an hour! I wish I was kidding.

They say, as soon as a man starts burping and farthing when he is with his girlfriend, it's a sign of trust and feeling comfortable around her. Well, this as well goes the way round.

True connection is truly rare, when that happens even each other’s odor is pleasant

My hubby doesn't seem to have an odour. The only time I smell him is when he uses rugasol at work, it bloody stinks.

Women leave their hair on shower walls. Women clean up their hair by swirling their hair on the wall.

When my wife moved in with me, 6 months into our relationship, I learned almost immediately that women, or at the very least my wife, are just like men but with their priorities slightly differently aligned. Like we all do the same exact things, just with slightly different approaches and executions, blew my freaking mind. This was also like 12 years ago, so what do I know.

How can that "blow your mind"? I'm really curious about what this guy was expecting.

They can, but just like men - they should seek help for it. My husband just did (after a long time...) and apparently 10% of women and 20% of men snore to the point were they need some type of medical attention. And it can be really dangerous.

Girls really emphasize planning ahead and sorting things out ahead of time. I didn't realize this was such a big issue but it is, they break up with you for that s**t lol.

I'm a girl. I almost never plan ahead. That's a personality thing, not a girl thing.

As a super pale person I agree to this. I have never been tan in my life, if I forget sunscreen I go from ghost to lobster and back to ghost.

They like stuff. Non descript, non useful, stuff. Knick knacks, plates, water bottles, stickers, soaps and lotions. I like a more minimal and clean living space while the women who have moved in with me seem to believe that if there is a surface, stuff needs to be on it.

There is one room that has very very strict protocols about its use usually kitchen, bathroom or bedroom have been my experience.

Kitchen is mine, do not rearrange things. What I use the most is put where I can reach it easily

If your girl has a big butt you have to fasten the screws on your toilet seat all the time.

What the f**k is she doing on the toilet if you have to fasten the screws all the time?
