Search Results: fighting with friend

It’s true that men are more likely to turn to unhealthy, self destructive and even violent means to deal with repressed emotions. More alcoholism, drugs, crime, fighting, risky activities, etc. Shorter lifespans too

Now if we have productive means to deal with our emotions e. g. sports, meaningful work, exercise, projects, inventions, hobbies, etc that can be a good thing. But even that can only go so far in my opinion.

My approach is that men should absolutely seek help but do it PRIVATELY. Join prívate mens groups, get counseling, attend private support groups, etc. But don’t go around telling people about it unless it’s someone you can 100% trust (best friend or a family member). Don’t go into details about it with the woman you are dating either.

We have to put on a different face in public and especially around women.

Personally I am so f*cking fed up with women who keep encouraging men to “open up” about their feelings and emotions. It’s has to be the most insidious shit test of them all. Once a man does this she feels relief that he is more “relatable” since he is acting more like a woman. But at the same time she loses attraction and RESPECT if he acts this way.

Most women have no idea how important it is that they want women to RESPECT them as real men. That is subconsciously the biggest Freudian motivation for men to act the way they do (for better or worse). Yet women want to destroy that for the short term “relief” they get for seeing a man get emotional.
