Search Results: how to stop crying

Be honest.
My friends were fed up with me crying and complaining about not getting respect and people disrespecting me but I don’t do NOTHING about it and they tried helping me stand up for myself but I am too afraid. My guy best friend said, “You know what? We don’t know what to do anymore. I guess you LOVE being treated so badly do you? We tried helping you. I guess you’re too much of a coward to have self respect. You want someone to get into your face huh? Yeah you like when I get in your face don’t you? Don’t you? You wanna man to get into your face and disrespect YOU! That’s what you love.” He got in my face. Then my girl best friend said, “Yeah you LOVE when people disrespect you huh? You want people to yell at you IN YOUR FACE. You wanna be the weak ass woman that has no respect for herself? Yes I will get into your face. YOU won’t anything since YOU DON’T HAVE THE HANDS TO FIGHT!” She got in my face. They kept doing it until I screamed at them to stop and then they said, “Then start standing up for yourself then! Instead of being a coward and acting like a little girl, be a woman and stand up for yourself damn it!”
Don’t you think they were being rude for getting in my face to teach me a lesson?

OBS! this will get a lot of hate from the feminists... Many people will say my ex was toxic. And I get why. But he protected me to the point he rather have me hate him and I'm safe than me being in danger and happy. Thinking back evan moments where I wanted to punch him in his face I realized he loved me.

Wether it was me not being allowed to walk out alone in the dark at night or me running away from home after arguing with my parents.. he would tell me to turn around to go home or he will throw me over his shoulder and take me home himself.

Or if I was hysterically crying he would pinch me down and hold me still until I calm down not leaving me evan though that's all I wanted. Cause he knew I would hurt myself if he did.

If I ever was in danger I would call him and he would come meet me up. Like one time a man was following me and I called him and he came running down. Or yesterday on my way home from work a crazy woman was following me and I called him and he stopped his gym work out and told me exacly what to do...(we are still friends).

There are more stuff he has done and is doing that I could name here that are annoying but I know he cares..

He sure can be an ASSHOLE in his own way but I'm not sure I would be here today if it wasen't for him. But am not ready to give him that ego boost...😣

Anyways I'm wondering if women would want a man to protect them like this evan when they don't want it? And would men do it?

I realize I do in the long run.
