Some things are better left to yourself
Agreed because she will use everything she knows and has at her disposal against him when she decides to use it. She also has political privileges to utilize at her disposal like an ex parte ppo for example. Not all women will be use it is the fact that they have it if they deem it necessary and majority of the time it isn't necessary

Be open like 90%. The other 10% is a matter of discretion. Never let a woman see you struggle.

I agree that you don't need to tell your partner everything that happens in your life and that it is okay to have some privacy in a relationship. However, a good relationship means having a partner with whom you may be sincere and know that your words will be heard without judgment or condemnation. How do you ever get to that point if you are always holding back?
I think applies more to negative emotion. I noticed that women I've encountered expect a guy to not have such strong emotions.
I disagree with the title - not the description.
Relationships are all about balance. You can open up to your partner about trauma, insecurities, that you feel down lately, or any of that. However, you should not treat them as a therapist, as expressing too much negativity is toxic for your partner. Both partners are there to help build each other up.
You should express the amount needed for the sake of communication, since you do need to understand your partner in a relationship.I’m very open with my wife in that I don’t lie to her or conceal things. I’m also somewhat reserved about the demons of bad memories or the traumatic things I’ve seen or endured in life. Also, I think it’s generally bad form to discuss previous relationships or sexual escapades with your wife (or husband) unless in a specific context. It can be mistaken as nostalgia or reminiscing and that’s not good.
I think my wife knows about 85-90% of who I am and that’s about the best I can give to anybody. I think the same is true of her. Anybody who thinks they know 100% of everything there is to know about someone is either with somebody very boring OR not being honest with themselves.When women say they want emotionally available men they don't mean they want men to talk about their feelings at at all. They mean they want men who are willing to talk about her feelings for an extended period of time.
I've had gfs who, if they were at all sentient, would have known an event would have considerable emotional impact for me but described it as 'water off a ducks back' or 'like hurting a brick'. If you had feelings it would reduce bandwidth for her feelings.
Women explicitly say they lose respect for men who show negative emotion. I saw a clip of a woman describing an actor crying in his part who said she couldn't respect him again. If your negative emotion shows weakness you will lose respect. She can't expect you to protect her if you are a blubbering mess.
In any case you are best off talking with a mate. Far more consoling hearing him say 'That fuckin cunt. He deserved being punched out' then anything a woman will say.
No I wouldn't say that. I think you need to read the situation. I would say beware of any women who wants to know too much about you too fast. Beware of very probing questions. And don't be open to a woman who is unwilling to be open with you.
Always lie because
Women eat breath sleep lying
Any man who hasn't caught up to the highly advanced female pyschology should take precautions
Lie even if it doesn't matter you will thank yourself in future
yes, it’s honestly important to be honest about who you are to your partner because what if they later find out you’re not what are you pretending to be: &they leave for it.
Women only want men to be "open" when what men say suits the women. Women do not want to hear about a man's pain or struggles.
Strongly disagree. But then have seen videos of women who ask for this then recoil when their man does try to show vulnerability so who knows.
Men should be open with their partner as much as possible but if it is something harsh about your spouse be tactful and not cruel.
If she is not a true woman of God, then I agree. if she is a true woman of God, then you can be open with her.
If you don't let someone know you, you can never feel loved.
I think that's probably true most of the time.
Be open, just have social awareness, and boundaries and a sense of self respect.
if they want to suffer in silence n handle it on their own then yes they can go for it
I'm very open and I expect the same or I'm gone
It is not really open or not, it is managing interactions because you know how bad it can be if you only speak without thinking first.
If you find a woman you can be open with then you probably should consider marrying her.
If you have to be that way, you’re better off single
