Girls, could you be in a relationship with a man who is guarded or unexpressive with his emotions?

[Anonymous]

Are you okay with him wanting to keep his feelings to himself?

I would be fine with it

I would tolerate it

It would be a deal breaker

I understand that it’s hard to express emotions and maybe there are times we may want to keep it to ourselves. However, it’s not okay if it’s making the relationship worse and there’s no open communication. I will have to say no unless he’s able to be open to vulnerability and talk things out when needed.

Not for long. Seems pointless after a while. The relationship would feel one-sided.

It depends.

A man who is guarded or unexpressive with his emotions can be challenging if he’s unwilling to communicate or connect.

But if he’s self aware, willing to grow, and expresses care in his own way, it can work.

Emotional expression comes in different forms, and understanding each other’s language of love is key.

Is that why you post this insecure twaddle anonymously?

How is him being emotionally unavailable going to help me? Be honest

there's nothing wrong with being guarded... but in a relationship? No🙅🏾‍♀️

you can't ever truly connect with someone if you can't share your emotions.
