What Women Really Want in a Relationship

제목_~1.PNG

 

What do women want? It’s the age-old question. But a recent study offers men a clue:
women are most satisfied when their partner knows they’re upset.

여자는 무엇을 원하는가? 아주 오래된 질문이다. 하지만 최근의 연구가 남자들에게 한 단서를 제공한다: 여자는 상대가 자신이 심란하다는 걸 알아줄 때 가장 만족해한다.

Huh? According to the new study, published in the Journal of Family Psychology, relationship satisfaction has a lot to do with the way partners are able to read and empathize
with each other’s emotions. For women, that applies more to their negative emotions than their positive ones: women are happy when their boyfriend or partner understands they’re upset.

정말일까? Journal of Family Psychology 지에 소개된 새 연구에 의하면 관계에 있어서의 만족은 상대가 서로의 감정을 읽고 공감할 수 있느냐와 많은 상관이 있다고 한다. 여자의 경우, 긍정적인 감정보다 부정적인 감정에 더 적용된다. 여자들은 남자친구나 상대가 자신들이 심란하다는 걸 이해할 때 행복하다.

*the way=how――the way의 뒤에 절이 올 경우 문법적으로는 the way in which 로 되어야 하지만 형식에 치우친 표현이며, 구어에서는 in which를 생략하여 the way를 접속사처럼 쓴다: This is the way I have done it. 이런 방식으로 나는 그 일을 했다. / It is the way he says it that makes me angry. 그의 그런 말투가 나를 화나게 한다.

For men, it’s somewhat simpler — they’re happy when their partner is happy. Men report more relationship satisfaction when they know their woman is happy, and not when they know she’s upset or angry.

남자의 경우, 다소 간단하다. 남자들은 상대가 행복하면 자신도 행복하다. 남자들은 관계에 있어 자신의 여자가 행복하다는 걸 알 때 만족하고, 그녀가 심란하고 화가 났을 때는 그렇지 않다고 한다.

For the study, researchers recruited 156 heterosexual dating or married couples and asked each person individually to describe a recent incident in which their partner did something that angered or disappointed them (like lying about his or her whereabouts). The couples were then brought together, presented with each partner’s grievance and asked to talk about the problem for 8 to 10 minutes and come to a better understanding of what happened. The researchers videotaped the interactions.

연구를 위해, 연구자들은 156명의 이성애자 연인 또는 부부를 모집하고 개개인에게 상대가 자신을 화나게 하거나 실망시킨 최근의 일들(가령 자신의 소재에 대해 거짓말 하기)에 대해 자세히 이야기 해보라고 요청했다.  다시 커플들을 같이 모이게 해서 각 상대의 불만을 들려주고 그 문제에 대해 8~10분 동안 이야기를 나누고 일어난 일에 대해 더 잘 이해할 수 있도록 했다. 연구원들은 커플간의 상호작용을 녹화했다.

 

Afterward, the participants watched the videotape and continuously rated their emotional responses throughout, using an electronic rating device with a scale ranging from “very negative” to “neutral” to “very positive.” The researchers then selected six 30-second clips from the videotape that had the highest negative or positive emotional ratings from each partner. The participants watched the clips and rated their own and their partner’s feelings and their partner’s efforts to be empathetic.

이후에, 참가자들은 녹화된 영상을 보고 계속해서 자신들의 정서적 반응들을 끝까지 평가했다. 전자평가도구를 이용해 아주 부정적에서 중간”, “아주 긍정적까지 평가는 이루어 졌다. 연구자들은 상대로부터 가장 부정적이고 가장 긍정적인 평가를 받은 30초짜리 화면 6개를 선별했다. 참가자들은 그 영상을 보고 자신의 감정과 상대의 감정 그리고 공감하려는 상대방의 노력을 평가했다.

Surprisingly, the researchers found, women were more likely to report higher relationship satisfaction when they could read their partners’ anger or frustration than when they could identify their happiness. No, it’s not that women revel in their significant others’ distress; rather, it’s that they prefer negative emotion to withdrawal or silence. “For women, seeing their husband or boyfriend upset is a reflection of their partner’s emotional engagement. When women see their male partners sharing their negative emotions, they see it as a sign of connection, openness and communication. Women don’t like it when men distance themselves during conflict,” says the study’s lead author, Dr. Shiri Cohen of Harvard Medical School.

놀랍게도, 과학자들이 알아낸 것은, 여자들은 자신들의 행복을 확인 할 수 있을 때보다 상대의 분노 또는 좌절을 읽을 수 있을 때 관계에 있어 만족할 가능성이 높았다는 것이다. 그렇다고 여자들이 배우자나 연인의 고뇌를 즐긴다는 것은 아니다. 오히려, 여자들은 혼자 틀어 박히거나 침묵하는 것 보다 부정적인 정서를 더 좋아한다는 것이다. “여자의 경우, 자신의 남편이나 남자친구가 심란한 것을 보는 것은 상대의 정서적 포용을 반영하는 것입니다. 여자들은 남성상대가 자신들의 부정적인 감정을 공유하는 것을 보면 그것을 연대, 개방성 그리고 의사소통의 징후로 이해합니다. 여자들은 갈등이 있을 때 남자들이 거리를 두면 좋아하지 않습니다.” 이 연구의 수석저자인 하버드의대의 쉬리 코헨 박사의 말이다.

*signíficant óther [사회] 중요한 타인: 부모, 동료 등./(·비격식) 배우자, 연인. 약자: SO

Conversely, men don’t always like to share in their wife’s or girlfriend’s negativity. While women in the study were happier when their man knew they were upset, that knowledge made men unhappy. Men’s relationship satisfaction was tied to their ability to identify their partner’s happiness. The researchers suggest that’s because men — unlike women — may feel that the relationship is threatened by their partner’s negative emotions, especially when they arise in the middle of a relationship-related conflict.

반대로, 남자는 자신의 아내나 여자친구의 부정성을 분담하는 것을 늘 좋아하는 것은 아니다. 연구에 참여한 여성들이 자신의 남자가 자신이 심란하다는 것을 알았을 때 더 행복해 한 반면, 그 사실을 안 남자는 불행해 했다. 남자의 만족은 상대의 행복을 확인하는 자신의 능력에 묶여 있다. 연구자들의 제안에 의하면 그 이유는, 남자는여자와는 달리상대의 부정적인 감정들이, 특히 그 감정들이 관계와 관련된 갈등 한 중간에 부각될 때, 그 관계가 위협을 받는다고 느낄 지도 모른다는 것이다.

Relationships are confusing, but based on the study, this is what it comes down to: the more communicative and empathetic men and women try to be in their relationships, the happier everyone is.

남녀관계는 혼란스럽다. 하지만 이 연구에 기초하면, 다음과 같이 귀결된다: 관계에 있어 남녀가 더 많이 터놓고 공감하려고 노력하면 모두가 더 행복해진다.

*come down to(비격식) 요컨대[결국] (…) 되다./ But what does everything come down to? 결국 결론은 뭐냐,

“When women emphasize what makes them happy in the relationship and express it in a way their male partners can easily read, this gives their partner a satisfaction boost,” says Dr. Cohen. “Men, women want to know when you’re upset. Even if it is uncomfortable, expressing these emotions will make women feel better in the relationship.”

여자들이 관계에서 자신들을 행복하게 하는 것이 무엇인지 강조하고 남성상대가 쉽게 읽어낼 수 있게 표현하면 상대방에게 만족도 향상을 줍니다.” 코헨 박사의 말이다. “남성들이여, 여성들은 당신들이 심란한 때를 알고 싶어합니다. 설사 그것이 불편할 지라도 그런 감정들을 표현하는 것이 관계에서 여성들을 기분 좋게 만들 것입니다.”

For both parties, the researchers stress the importance of simply trying to understand each other. “Demonstrating in some way that you are trying, even if you are not getting it right, is what’s most important for relationship satisfaction,” says Cohen.

남녀 공히, 단순히 서로를 이해하려고 노력하는 것이 중요하다고 연구자들은 강조합니다. “어떻게든 당신이 노력하고 있다는 것을 보여주는 것이, 설사 제대로 표현을 못하게 되더라도, 관계만족에 있어 가장 중요한 것입니다.” 코헨의 말이다.
