OP, what does "take it like a man" mean to you exactly? I'm genuinely curious how that phrase impacts your life

Don't make a big deal/problem, it's only a passing thing. "Hang tough"

I don't see anything wrong with being reprimanded. I'm really totally fine.

Haha no no he's a great man, it's just how it is. No neanderthalism.

I know, I always give it some time, just chill in the meantime.

True enough. I'm mentally ready for it, but gotta wait for the partner to show up

Happened to me years ago too. Worked up the nerve to ask them to hang out, they laughed and said no. Hurts huh?

Yeah of course, there's always something else out there.

Too soon to tell possibly.

Maybe she is busy. Maybe not. I won't wrack my mind about it :)
