Women, what do you think of your man if he's going through a breakdown?

[blutwolfe]

Your spouse or date, or even if it's a guy you know or a friend. What do you think of him? A lot of questions asking about guys emotions lately so I'm curious. Would you abandon him or be there for him? What if he is prone to breakdowns? Or that he is very open with his emotions to you. Do you think he's a crybaby or childish for being open with his emotions?

It seems very torn on whether women like emotional available guys or not. Granted breakdown is probably an bad as it gets, but women have them a lot too.

That's reassuring some women out there support their man all the way

My boyfriend has broken down a couple times in front of me and when it has happened, I just wanted to hug him and be there for him. I want him to be able to be emotional around me. I’m his girlfriend and I therefore, I want to be able to support him. I would never think he is a crybaby or childish for being open. I wish he could be more open honestly. I don’t want him to feel like he has to hid himself from me. How society says that guys shouldn’t show their emotions is so stupid to me. Guys are just as human as girls and shouldn’t be expected to act like they are made of stone. Others may disagree with me, but this is what I believe.

I'd admire that he's open with his emotions. If he has a breakdown, I'll stay with him and try to help him through it. No one deserves to be abandoned.

If it was a normal emotional meltdown from stress or something bad happening I'd would hug him and listen. If it was a depression I'd try to talk him into going to a therapist or if he was really bad off a hospital. I know by the time most men cry things are pretty bad. Men crying I take seriously because I don't know if he's hit a breaking point. If a man cries quite a bit because he's sensitive I'd kind of get it because I tend to be that way too to a certain extent.

I think ’Aww, poor guy’ and he’s only human, and I actually respect him for being vulnerable, feel honoured that he allowed himself to show that around me, and I comfort him as best I can. It is not a turn off at all. I would always prefer knowing that a person cares about things, has feelings, is touchrd by things, rather than being cold or aloof or controlled. Yo have people talk about their pain with you is an honour.

I lime when a man cry's or has a breakdown in front of me. Not saying that I like emotional men lmao, but it makes me feel like I've done a good job making him feel loved and comfortable to the point where he can cry and show me how he really feels. Some women though, are stuck up and snobby and would think otherwise, but tbh love I think it depends on the person. ^u^

Society has taught men that crying means they're weak. I want my partner to feel free and express his emotions at least to me. It's so rare seeing men cry to the point where I find men crying beautiful. And if you're man, crying doesn't make you weak but strong, sometimes you have to clear your mind by crying and letting it all out. I doubt men are cry babies just because you cry doesn't make you one. We're all human

I wish more men were emotionally available. Honestly, it's a turn on if I find a guy that actually has emotions besides just horny, angry and aloof lmfaoo

I have had a nervous breakdown before. And I suffer from anxiety. So it would be easy to be there for him 100% <3
