Women underestimate how much suffering men can endure in silence. As men, we need to help each other because society doesn’t give a fuck. Ask your bro how he’s doing. Like really doing. Most men say good because they’re supposed to. Ask again if they’re really doing good. We gotta be there for each other if we want our society to be strong and healthy. Most are struggling.

Response of ‘Fine’ in this instance I find to be a smouldering issue. Openly saying ‘not great’ is a four letter word. The line between charisma, stamina and needing help is muddied at best. Prod your friend as best you can. You’ll never regret helping them out if you can connect that way. I certainly wish I had tried harder a long time ago.
Trying to be a man while the state and inflation take all your earnings is tough. Hard to bear the responsibilities without the means. Worse for each generation coming down the fiat shit pipe.
And then our manhood is called out as the problem. It’s really tough times right now. But if we can get through this, we’ll become the strong men that create good times for the next generation.
women might sometimes underestimate how much suffering men can endure in silence, but when we extend love and kindness, it's also up to men to accept, rather than being bitter/avoidant - so it's convenient to place part of the blame on women. we gotta be there for each other if we want our society to be strong and healthy, for everyone. your sister, your coworker, your wife, your mom. stranger on the street, the list goes on. love is the cure indeed. let's all love each other 🧡
Wasn’t blaming women. It’s just that women are the ones that men expect help from. And women don’t always recognize when a man needs help because men often don’t ask for it. But most men can relate to suffering alone in silence. So that’s why I said it’s important for men to help each other.
Stop it! Please. I can't take it anymore! No, alright?! I'm weak. I fucked it all up. Others may have struggled, sure, but others may not have, and there's no excuse given my circumstances. Is that what you wanna hear? Huh?!
Friends, let's just support each other and be kind🫶🫶 We already live on harsh times, there is no need to make it even harder image
Right on, broski. Bunch of women on here sometimes, sharing their feelings, I tell you what. Sheehoo

There it is! All two people on #nostr
I believe that the biggest issue is men's wiring to "attack" problems. If someone shares a problem, you attack it and try to solve it. Smarter men learned that's not always the best solution if the "problem" is shared by women, who basically use the gossip protocol as part of their healing network and are not necessarily interested in a solution (or a solution from you). But as a man, you are pre-wired to share in order to solve things, and society kind of embraces this approach, to put it mildly. So to really share, you need two self-aware sides who understand that what is about to be said is not necessarily a problem to solve, just something to share. And that's rare.
