Is it any wonder that our relationships are so often riddled(迷惑) with (9)____________and disappointment? It is said that women's greater willingness to talk about feelings improves their (10)_________ and physical health and makes it easier to ask for help. Maybe men could learn a thing or two about friendship from women. But who is to say that women couldn't learn a thing or two from them in exchange?
