As a women I now understand that men are very lonely, even with all the SP and MAs to go visit, they are still lonely. It's very sad.
Please expand on this comment. I assume you are a SP or former ( how long?), single ( maybe divorce) , and over 40.As a women I now understand that men are very lonely, even with all the SP and MAs to go visit, they are still lonely. It's very sad.
Yes we are lonely. Would you be available?As a women I now understand that men are very lonely, even with all the SP and MAs to go visit, they are still lonely. It's very sad.
And what it is, is awesome. Total steak sauce [A1]It’s sad and true, but it is what it is
You're right on the money. It is as it is. Always has been. Always will be. Here's the thing; men aged 40 to 59 have the highest suicide rate in Canada. Four times higher than women (although women attempt up to four times as men,...men just get'er done ). And yet when you see suicide prevention advertisements, what do you see? Young females. Men live shorter lives than women. Men overwhelmingly lose the greater share of wealth in divorces. Men overwhelmingly lose custody of children. Female violence against male partners is almost never reported and when it is, it is almost always not taken seriously. We're told over and over and over again it's 'ok' to show feelings. But when we do we are silently ostracized for it. You go into your boss's office, start crying and ask for a hug and see what happens. Or better yet, get pulled over by a cop for speeding and try the waterworks. See if the copper lets you go. When Ukraine went to war what did Zelinsky say: 'Women and children out, men...to the front" and by GOD ALMIGHT that IS what we were made for. Here's the thing; as men we've lived too long under the mighty media gaze, looking inward and wondering what a man is. We know what men are; Men are our fathers and grandfathers and great-grandfathers in a line going all the way back to the beginning. We have been convinced that living a sedentary, sweater-wearing, porn-riddled lifestyle is what's best. That being the 'bigger man' means walking away (walking away, cowering is the truth), from an argument or fight. That we don't have to struggle. That it's ok to sit down. It isn't. It isn't bloody well ok. We're alone and lonely because we've lost hope. And we've lost hope because we don't see out 'need' anymore. Well FUCK THAT! Brothers, go out and shag some tail. Get to the gym. Take up a martial art. Get in a fight. Join something. Call your people. Don't have friends? Make some. Learn to tell people to FUCK OFF! and mean it. Even if you get in a fight, even if you get your ass kicked, I promise you, I FUCKING PROMISE you, you'll feel a million percent better. And then learn to be a gentleman. Learn to be a knight; a man who is literally a gentle man but can be ungentle when the need arises. Stop giving in. It's a hard hard road and we think no one is going to help us, but I'm telling you brothers, this long hard road up from Hell into the light of God is worth every step.It’s sad and true, but it is what it is

Although Enter Sandman and For whom the Bell Tolls is better
We're all climbing that stairway to heavenIt’s sad and true, but it is what it is
Haha! You have it made!The answer is simple. Get a dog. A friendly dog. They are great company. They are always happy to greet you at the door. They provide free cuddles. They get you out for fresh air and exercise. Mine is a service dog. His only 'service' is that he helps me meet nice ladies!
See my comment in the thread "Thoughts to live with a sp".As a women I now understand that men are very lonely, even with all the SP and MAs to go visit, they are still lonely. It's very sad.
lol A terb member who actively participates in these lovely adventures that we have all chosen to go on together lol tells us to grow the fack up and go to therapy... holy fack lol This is the 411 page all!! way to fall into someone's bait. Go join a mental health form if you want to talk about this shit.Some good points. But to add, men lose more wealth in divorce because they make more, (patriarchy). The calculation documents are online to look at. “It’s who has more? Who has the kids? Send some over.” Sex isn’t implicated in the document.
As for custody, men generally aren’t AS available due to work obligations (patriarchy).
Or are not as willing to step back from work for the job of child caring. I don’t know why? Maybe because of how they perceive child care as less important than work? Or their employers are not flexible to them because they are men? (Patriarchy).
We all have heard of men getting screwed in divorce. It happens. But that’s not necessarily how the law is setup (except in the case of child tax credits).
It’s largely the social structures in place that we keep perpetuating, because we THINK they benefit us. They’re killing us. Who’s the boss that refuses the hug? A man. (But also a women for different reasons, go to friends for emotional support).
Be a man! Get into fights, instead of talking about your feelings, bottle it up and Kill yourself between 40 and 59.
Sounds pretty shit. How about grow the fuck up, see the therapist, (actually do the work) make some friends, and get a hobby?
Yeah pretty funny how someone (him/her/she/it/they or other) made a new account and then pre-judged (form a judgment on ((an issue or person)) prematurely and without having adequate information), everyone on TERB with one big brush stroke! It must be nice to sit on your High Throne and Judge all of us like this without knowing really any of us. There are lots of reasons why people are on here doing what they do, I don't judge anyone here for what they do here. Even if you have Degrees up the Wazoo nobody here has ever flooded the pages with all their feelings, emotions or thoughts that you would be able to even understand what they are thinking, or even be able to formulate a true assessment. Your post and statement is akin to "Everyone who has a drivers license is a bad driver!" I concur with bushido_99, Shannon Beth is someone who is trying to stir the pot on here for their own amusement.lol A terb member who actively participates in these lovely adventures that we have all chosen to go on together lol tells us to grow the fack up and go to therapy... holy fack lol This is the 411 page all!! way to fall into someone's bait.
