But if they don't have real friends to compare you to, they start using the "most women" argument.
Who doesn’t have real friends to talk with when getting zero emotional support from one’s spouse?
You’d better believe yours getting talked about if you’re a delinquent.
Men. That's who. Men don't have real friends.
Correct.
No communication skills + Work addict + No interests/ hobbies + Poor father role model = Adult male with no friends or connections, including immediate family.
FYI - we lived in Texas for a few years. I was shocked to find that everyone was in shape, didn't work weekends - yet made very good money, went to church or brunch most Sundays, out to dinner with their wives or those social clubs, coached their kid's' teams with a few other dads, played a round of golf or tennis with their guy friends, etc. AND COULD HOLD A CONVERSATION.
They had a nice well-rounded, rich life. They were family first.
Came here and the men only talk about work projects or a newpaper article. And have no muscle tone. Lame.

Ok then, women won’t die if they don’t get their emotional needs met, they’re not entitled to a husband that cares about their feelings, they should do more to make him interested in their emotional needs.
Sorry but no one is going to be having s3x with someone they can’t rely on, can’t trust, or who is negligent.
Sorry but no man is going to care about the “emotional needs” of a woman who isn’t meeting his needs.
Which came first? And how do they move forward?

Is this a joke? Or are you really serious?!

I told DH that I don't mind if he does not care about my feelings as long as he is fine with me not caring about his.
lmao women never care about a man’s feelings so he lost nothing there.
