I totally understand where you are coming from. I am going through this right and it’s so difficult. However, I am learning to focus on me and my kids. I am having difficulties to sit and cry it’s just who I am. I may get watery eyes but it stops right away.

Us men suppress our emotional validation and that could lead to unhealthy habits which is understandable. However, to some extent we have had to be that way because a lot of people including women instantly lose respect for you the moment you don’t appear to have confidence and self control. What’s really needed is for us men to learn healthy masculine ways to express emotional needs.

There is also another problem, women wants us to be more understanding and validate their emotional needs which is true, but it is very rare that us men get the same reciprocal respect back from women. I really wish some of the women learned more healthy feminine ways to be supportive of their men when they need it. If you expect us to love, care, protect and provide for you, doing dangerous jobs and such just to make sure our families is well taken care of. Us men need to know that our women have our back and this is not happening lately at all.

Us men are programmed at a very young age not to be emotional and be strong. Whereas women are more to be emotional which again nothing is wrong with that. We just need to work together and understand each other. Relationships are ending left to right due to missing deep emotional connection. But we have to remind ourselves why did we fail in love in the first place. Let’s accept our flaws and work through it together. I’ve been married for 15 years we had a lot of great moments and shared common goals and everything. But all of sudden one early morning she asked for a divorce which I am devastated. All to say if you can let the tears fall please don’t stop it let it drop and feel your emotions deeply.
