They say if you don’t starve a man’s ego you’ll forever live harmony. As tough, strong and powerful men ‘pretend’ to be — they also seek love and belonging. society has high expectation for men — we’re not expected to crack under pressure or to be vulnerable.
Men, let’s chat about ourselves a bit. There are a couple of things we’d not dare to discuss with our partners. Here’s is a list of three but you can disagree.
Sexual issues
It’s pretty easy for a dude to make sexual jokes amongst his mate. If he’s got any sexual issues (probably after a week or two) he might confide to the closest friend instead of his partner. For example, if he has an erection dysfunction — he’d rather cook excuses rather than seeking help. This is a super sensitive issue to a guy —his reputation and entire life is at stake!
Weaknesses
A dude would rather play superman 24/7 than being a victim. No man wants to be at a ‘begging’ position. The relationship is interesting and fun as long as he’s perceived as the ‘miracle’ worker. For that one, you can blame society for encouraging men to ‘keep it together’ all the time.
“I’m broke”
A dude would confess almost all his sins but he’ll never tell you that he needs money or he can’t afford something. This is not just a secret that he keeps for his partner but for his friends as well. Being a man, for many is all about wealth and social status.
Take a chill bro! These things keep us grounded. It’s what makes us human.
