On today&#8217;s review, I thought to reshare a review of one of my personal favourites when it comes to Christian romance. What better time to share this than now\ud83d\ude42after all we&#8217;re in the month of love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m sure this title has you wondering what this is all about.&nbsp;Big kudos to the authors for such a captivating title. Even if you had no plans of reading this book, the title gets you curious enough to dig in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like the rider states, this book is aimed at helping you understand gender differences and making the best of them. First, understand that God our creator has wired males differently from females. These differences, when not understood could cause rifts in relationships, including marital and other inter-personal relationships.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Men being like waffles means they compartmentalize. That is, they deal with issues in \u2018boxes.\u2019 So when a male is neck deep in work, he puts his all into that box just to make it work. And oh, they like to win too. So until, they have won in that \u2018box,\u2019 it\u2019s not okay to leave it.&nbsp; Peradventure they assume they cannot achieve in a particular box, they would rather not touch it at all.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a waffle, events are independent happenings and might not really mean much. They interpret events at the surface level and that\u2019s it. They don\u2019t mean to forget the major events too (birthdays, anniversaries, children\u2019s programs), it just wasn\u2019t in the box they were attending to at the time\u2026lol. Is it beginning to make some sense?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The authors negate the popular belief that the way to a man\u2019s heart is his stomach. They state that men like to be affirmed. Right words make their hearts glad. They like it when you tell them they can do it because it keeps them going until they achieve that goal. On the other hand, tell them they can\u2019t and no force in the universe can undo that feeling; especially when their spouse is the naysayer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spaghettis are so called because like your physical plate of spaghetti, it\u2019s all intertwined and it\u2019s quite a task attempting to separate one strand from another. That\u2019s exactly how a female is. Every area of her life is intertwined, which is why she could juggle a zillion things at the same time; it\u2019s how she\u2019s wired. She can be a successful wife, mother, sister, daughter, career woman, caregiver, friend\u2026&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also ace at non-verbal communication. They have that \u2018look\u2019 which communicates a thousand words\u2026lol! Amazingly, the husband and children totally get that&nbsp;look.If&nbsp;they eventually speak, what they say might be different from what they mean. It\u2019s funny but it\u2019s just what it is. You need to learn to decode the hidden meaning. Spaghettis don\u2019t do surface meanings. For example if she says \u2018it\u2019s your decision\u2019 what she means is \u2018 the correct decision should be obvious by now.\u2019 The authors have a list of spaghetti statements along with their hidden meanings. Waffles, you will be grateful for this; it\u2019ll make your lives&nbsp; 110% better. I guarantee you will get into less trouble \ud83d\ude42&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This book is humorous, insightful, entertaining, educative and yet spiritual. The authors emphasize that with the help of the Holy Spirit, you could be an excellent waffle or spaghetti; your marriage can be as amazing as God intended for it to be. God, who wired waffles differently from spaghettis didn\u2019t plan for it to be a basis for war. You can be a delightful pair in spite of your differences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bill and Pam have include several real life examples which help you internalize the lessons and stay glued on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recommend that you make this book one of your relationship manuals, refer to it as often as you can individually and along with your partner; you\u2019ll be amazed at the outcome.
