[quote=Anonymous]I am 45 divorced and currently in therapy. The primary reason my ex filed for divorce was exactly what the OP asked about. When I met my therapist the first I asked her was how to become an emotionally present partner. She said we need to identify my emotional needs first. Ha! You thought it would have been easy. Nope. I must have suppressed my own needs for so long that I don’t even know what they are. And my therapist is helping me. Women talk about their emotions, they are not afraid of them. They seek help, advice etc. We men we are the opposite. Most of us suppress them. I was blaming myself a lot but my therapist told me it’s much more complicated that I am making it seem. Right now I am not dating and I don’t plan to do so for along time because what I am learning about myself is making reflect harder about the type of woman that’s ideal for me. I am in no hurry. Let’s see in a few months where I am at. But I’ll say though that women are far more complex than I thought. Many of us men seriously underestimate the emotional needs of a woman. [/quote]
