I once cried in front of a girlfriend after my beloved cat I'd had for 12 years died of cancer. She broke up with me shortly thereafter, saying she'd lost respect for me after seeing me cry. I was married for 15 years and cried once in all that time in front of my wife, when my best friend was killed. I'll never forget the look of disgust on her face. Men, do not show your emotions to women. Ever. They're not here for us, we're here for them, at least from their point of view. Show one moment of human vulnerability and you'll always be diminished in their eyes. Women say they want caring, sensitive men, but what they really want are sociopathic narcissists who don't feel nor display any genuine emotion; whatever emotions they feign are purely to manipulate others. Which is why I'm done with women in general, but some of you are determined to learn the hard way. Don't say I didn't warn you.

@KENZIIE_lol That was the one and only time I cried in front of my wife. I learned my lesson after that and closed up after that. Years later, I was laid off for six months from my job and my wife was gone after the first month. We didn't know how long it would be before I found work again, so she took a guy from church out of the Friend Zone and put him in the Boyfriend Zone. She filed for divorce immediately. I got my dream job five months later with a huge salary increase. My now ex-wife said she'd made a mistake and wanted to come back. I said "no", of course. Many men have similar stories, where what seemed like a solid marriage dissolved at the first sign of financial troubles. "Only women, children and dogs are loved unconditionally.

@KENZIIE_lol The guy my wife left me for isn't nearly as good-looking and didn't even graduate college, while I have multiple advanced degrees. And yes, after the tingles wore off, he was abusive to her. I have no sympathy because she left me at my lowest point instead of supporting me: "You can't do anything for me any more? Bye!" That's when I learned what women are really like. I retired last year, years early, with more money than I dreamed of, because I never remarried. I didn't realize a lot of things about my marriage until I wasn't in it any more, and all of it was bad. Marriage is almost always bad for men; it's an institution that primarily benefits women, and men should refuse to participate in it.

Sorry about your grandpa, but yep, same thing happened to me when I cried a little at my best friend's funeral. My wife of 15 years looked as disgusted as if I'd crapped my pants.

@cdpgbc-mw2kz Grass is greener on the other side of the fence. Our society relentlessly sells marriage, but it's a one-sided contract that heavily favors women. Do NOT get married. Do NOT live with a woman. Do NOT financially support a woman. There are no "good ones", or they're so rare that your chances are literally 1 in 1000 of getting one. Those are terrible odds.

"I got used by Chad because other men didn't rescue me!" Women are never at fault, never responsible, for anything.

@samuraitadpole5459 Self-reflection and taking accountability? I heard a woman actually did that once, but I think it's just an urban legend.

@CitrusPeppercorn The only genuine sympathy I've ever gotten has been from other men. Women only value us for what we can do for them and are disgusted by our feelings. Maybe it's harder to use us men if they have empathy for us?

Why is OUR job to hold other men accountable? Once again, women refuse to take responsibility. What am I supposed to do, tell women that the guy they're seeing is just manipulating and using them for easy sex? Did that, and they didn't listen, because women only hear what they want to hear. Women KNOW the men they're with are bad for them, which is WHY they're with them! "Yes, he's a bad boy, but I'm going to change him" or "I can't control the way I feel" or "he's just so good at manipulating me". The excuses of children is what those are.
