Today I actually realised that, nobody actually likes a man who shares his emotions or "opens up". Literally nobody, parents, wife, colleagues, even friends.

A man is literally expected to be strong and take it all. Your importance lies in what you can do or what you can provide for them.

I too thought that maybe my parents are different, maybe my wife cares, and all this fuss in social media was a lie, but i was wrong.

In today's world, as a man, never open up about your vulnerabilities.

This quote is the biggest reality of nowadays. I'd say - you may have just one exception here and that is parents. Apart from your parents everyone else just see's you as an ATM machine especially feminists.

Not necessarily. I don't have many friends, just 3. I have been able to open up with one on all aspects of life.

Bcoz you have opened up to one of ur friend that doesn't mean every male should share his feelings and emotions with anyone or everyone. A male should never share his emotional side if he wants to have peace.

my sister died this morning. I posted about her in a past post. Alcohol addiction, liver failure and then it taxed the kidneys too much, she went into cardiac arrest at 9 am and they could not save her. She was 51. Sad day for sure. Feels odd that she is no longer here. I just wish she could have had a better future.
