How To Understand Your Man
You know, we men are strange beings but I'm sure you already noticed that, otherwise you wouldn't be here.
We tend to keep our emotions inside us. We suffer in silence,
but that doesn't mean we don't love you.
On the contrary
we have the (outdated) mindset that we must protect you and the kids at all costs
and that would include not telling you about our feelings
because you then could think we're weak and not a real man...
Stupid isn't it?
But that's how we were brought up
It's not our fault
and we try, believe me we really do
but we have another problem.
We can't ask for help, because we also think that's a sign of weakness
So, we need your help.
Here's what you can do for your man:
- Love him
You do that already otherwise you wouldn't be reading this - Don't try to change him, he will become even more silent
- Try to listen to him even if you don't really understand what he tries to tell you
Perhaps he doesn't know yet either but he tries, believe me he does - Make him feel that you are simply there for him, with patience and all the love you can give
And then, if you want to talk to a man who went through the hell of addiction, lies, accidents, tears, fights and more drama
a man who loves his wife more than ever before
and that wife has finally the man she fell in love with
someone who might know what your man goes through
