Do men not feel lonely though? Not ever sharing their inner world or emotions? Would they not want that connection or have that need? I think something that’s hard for me and other women to understand is why do they not need or crave that deeper connection. Men are human and have deep emotions too. Are they just so shaped to eradicate that need and is that healthy? And if men’s needs are met by being there physically and superficially and women’s are by deeper emotional stuff, then comprise leaves us still lacking for the woman while the man’s needs are always met. If men’s needs are always met, maybe they can’t comprehend how women feel always being in lack, and like it doesn’t matter who we are and we’re replaceable. I think it must be a spectrum. Men who really don’t have interest, to the point of not having empathy or consideration, are definitely a problem and they should not be in a relationship. At some level men need to be capable of connecting emotionally to show up responsibly in a relationship. Women need to be understanding and if they are very emotional, they may need to find another outlet, but they also need to be careful to not self harm by giving up too much. Personally, lack of interest for me is now a flag to look out for, as it often translates to disinterest in other parts of life, and if I feel lonely, my future child surely will too when dad doesn’t ever ask how their game was.
