My first instance of sexual assault was a friend who took it to court and lost, I wanted to kill the other guy. It broke my guy! #himtoo

I'm actually crying right now. Time to finish this thesis so I can have the time and energy to work on my eating problems and esteem issues.

You know, there are definitely a lot of shitheads in the world, but too many good [and average] men don't get validation enough. Good post!

Thank you. I'm married, but it's nice to think, even though I'm a little overweight and have white patches in my beard, I'm still attractive
bananaisntfriend
Kittyvonmeowser
The white patches in my boyfriends beard are my favorite part of him. He's also a little overweight and beyond sexy. You're good!
SolaceHaestas
My dude, as a Bi male, white in your beard makes you sexier.

Just as education, a lot of men/boys self-harm by punching walls or other similar acts. It's just more socially acceptable. 1/2

Check on your male friends and let them know they can talk when they have stuff on their minds. Guys are wonderful and I love them!

I've had to teach most of my girlfriends not to hit me because there's so little regard for men's physical safety they do it without notice.
bananaisntfriend
Jesus. I would never hit anyone even in jest gently. Good on you for teaching people it’s not ok.
BigReddthemetalhead
Hah! Too bad it's only a small number of people who care like that. But thats okay, I've been trying to do good anyway.
zoezoebelle
You may be surprised. A lot of women care very much but just don't know how to express it.
QueenSavcy
Oh how wrong u are! The majority of women love men. Theres the crazies out there that get posted here. But mostly, we love and care abt yall
bouncebounceandtheclaw
Dude, no! A lot more females care about men's health. My female friend and I actively have conversations about it. We support everyone.
BigReddthemetalhead
Maybe in more progressive areas. As someone who actively struggles with health issues I've found myself alone.
bouncebounceandtheclaw
I'm sorry to hear that. I really try to spread the word so it becomes more common elsewhere. I'd hope you can find support here!

ImAMomWhatsYourSuperpower
I love my man with all my heart. And I tell and show him so. I tell him, how beautiful he is. I care for him.
ImAMomWhatsYourSuperpower
He says, he never felt so loved in his life. He´s had 2 relationships before, both longer than 2 years. And I just think it´s really sad,..
ImAMomWhatsYourSuperpower
he is feeling like this for the first time. He is such an awesome guy. I really can´t understand someone wouldn´t treat him like he is.

Me being with someone as gorgeous as her. She’d always laugh at that notion and hug me and say I was perfect just for her. I miss her. A lot

I think it's harder for men to actually get help with mental health because it makes us feel weak
bananaisntfriend
I get being perceiving weak as bad, but I’m weak sometimes. Sometimes I just need my SO before I break. Being weak isn’t bad it means you1/2
bananaisntfriend
bananaisntfriend
Just need something. A talk, a hug just the littlest bit of support anything to keep going. Saying you’re weak means you’r strong
gamblingpoet
Which is what toxic masculinity is and why people are opposed to it. It is the idea that men MUST always be strong and if they aren't, they
gamblingpoet
are considered weak. Men can't show weakness. Men can't show emotions. Toxic masculinity tells us that we can't or else we are "girls" or
gamblingpoet
"gay". We need to end it. We need to allow men to show emotions and weakness and not think them any less of it.
Memeeater
You hate toxic masculinity, or you hate the fact that people think toxic masculinity exists?
gamblingpoet
TM exists and I hate it. To deny it exists is just burying your head in the sand and pretending everything is perfect. I grew up with it.
houndinghell
Asking for help doesn't make you weak. It shows that you are aware of your needs, and know where to turn for that. It breaks my heart 1/
houndinghell
so many men are taught not to ask for help. It's okay to need help. You are never lesser or weak for it, never. Please, ask for help. 2/2

Although some of the men who comment may not have somebody, I just wanna say all of you are wonderful! Thank you - from another female

Confession - I have long curly hair not necessarily because I love it, but because I get compliments on it and I love that.
Spuduck
I hate my jew fro but my human seems to like it..which is making me like it..its odd
DrjayOBGYN
Can confirm— Jew Fros are adorable.
Spuduck
Normally maybe..mine is less curl and more gravity defying..it just looks like its trying to get away from my face
ThelmaTidwell
When I first met my husband in 85 I loved his curly haired mullet(?). Found out when I saw him 28 yrs later it was a perm. Still cute though
Ant1eX
I hate my extremely curly hair.. So.. Much.. Never once got a compliment on it. I need to move to wherever you are it seems

Thought I had it but found out during divorce she wasn't in love with me for years even tho she knew I gave her the last piece of my heart
DrjayOBGYN
That doesn’t mean someone else won’t treasure you! ❤️
Cottonflame
If she wasnt in love with you, it sounds like you dodged a bullet getting a divorce. Still hurts regardless, I'm sorry dude. 1/2
Cottonflame
Just remember that even if she didn't work out, theres almost 8 billion other people out there. Someone's bound to love you for real.

That's how you've perceived your experience, others have their own opinions about you and not all of them will be negative.

Just as how absolute narcissisism is ridiculous, so is the opposite.
iamkyleh
Im only speaking from experience, trust me on this one
CheekyBreeki
I won't trust you because there's no way for you to know that for sure. Do you think everyone you've been romantically attracted to you know
OhhhDrZaius
Cmon bruh, chin up. I know you've probs heard ita mil times but self worth and dgaf mentality is attractive. I felt the same way for so long

If u want to dm me. I'm here.

Whenever I see a post like this I go and look for a Christmas selfie. Here's a genuine compliment: you have gorgeous eyes, and a nice smile.

Same here man. This post is nice but also sad as it reminded me just how devoid of encouragement and healthy attention my life is.
DiggyDog24
People will say stuff like this on the internet, but when push comes to shove most people don't extend this thinking to real life.
InAMellowTone
Which is very unfortunate. I try to give out at least one compliment a day. I may not get many compliments myself but it feels nice

Trust me. You can be in a relationship and still be alone. You can be married and still be alone. Don't count on a thing to save you.
Private4160
Been there, I've never felt so loved as when I became single again.
ElbowDeepInStudentDebt
Trust me. At this point, I'd take a hollow relationship . Being truly alone, living in a trailer, in the woods, with no human contact...

besides the weekly shopping trip will drive a man mad, or at least, cause them to live vicariously through the internet.
