Men can be confusing, but they’re not as complicated as they seem. You already know that men have a hard time expressing their emotions and talking about their feelings, but there are other things you may not know about them: what their favorite foods are or how they feel about your friends (or lack thereof), for example.
1. They love their friends.
It is a well-known fact that men are closer to their friends than they are to their partners. This is not because they prefer the of other men; rather, it’s because women spend more time talking about relationships than men do.
Men don’t want to hear about how you’re feeling or what you think about them—they want to talk about themselves! They’ll tell you what happened at work and why he’s so stressed out, but if you ask them how their day went, he will give one-word answers before changing the subject back to themselves.
Men also like hanging out with each other because they can’t get away from women. Without having anyone ask them questions or suggest things for them to do together as a couple (such as going shopping).
So while it may seem like your partner doesn’t care if he spends all weekend watching TV in bed while wearing sweatpants, this is just him trying not to be bothered by anything too feminine! He also might not want anybody asking him any questions when he’s trying to relax and unwind from stressful weekdays at work with other guys who understand exactly how hard those days were (and won’t judge him for needing some R&R).
2. Men think about sex more than they know.
It’s not that they want to think about it more, or even talk about it—they just do. Men are more likely than women to have a sexual thought intruding into their minds during the day, according to research from Binghamton University. And they’re also more likely to have sex on the brain while they’re working out or at work! But don’t worry: Most men are happy with their level of sex drive and don’t feel like they need to change anything.
3. They have a quiet side they show only to certain people.
Men are a lot like women. They have their little secrets that they are not going to share with just anyone. If you want to find out what these secrets are, ask the men in your life who they would be most comfortable talking about them with.
Most likely it will be their parents, brothers, or best friends because these people know that men don’t like talking about their feelings as much as women do. However, if you want him to open up more then it might take some time before he feels comfortable enough around you to do so.
There is also another way to get your man to open up. Talk about his day at work, or ask him how he overcame an obstacle recently. Where he had many choices but didn’t know which one would lead him on the right path. Until later on down the road when things could’ve gone south very quickly. Without any warning whatsoever except maybe intuition guiding us forward through difficult times–so said my therapist once upon a time while sitting next during the session together.
4. They worry about what others think of them.
Men are afraid of being judged. They are afraid of being rejected. They are afraid of being disliked and laughed at. Most men will take the risk of rejection over the fear that they’ll be seen as weak or ridiculous by a group of people. A man will go out on a limb to avoid embarrassment, even if it means risking physical harm or financial loss.
A woman may feel powerful when she stands up for herself, but a man feels powerful when he can protect her and make her happy—and he knows that sometimes requires sacrificing his own needs to do so!
Men also worry about what others think about them because they want approval from their peers (something women don’t seem as concerned with). If you want your man to do something for you, tell him what other men would think if they knew he did it instead.”
They’re more sensitive than you think.
You may have noticed that your man can be a bit of a tough guy at times, seemingly indifferent to the world around him. But just because he doesn’t wear his emotions on his sleeve doesn’t mean that he’s not in touch with them at all. Men are often more sensitive than women, and they express their emotions in different ways than women do.
Men aren’t as open about their feelings as women are simply because they don’t want to appear weak or vulnerable.
This makes sense when you consider that throughout history, men have been taught to suppress their emotions and keep them under control while growing up—it’s only recently that we’ve begun seeing a shift toward greater acceptance of emotionality among boys and men alike.
But here’s what you need to know: Your guy has feelings too! And even though he might not express them openly all the time (or ever), know that it isn’t because he doesn’t care about how you feel; it’s probably more about protecting himself from being hurt by people who judge him for being “too emotional.”
It’s hard for them to talk about their feelings.
Men are often uncomfortable talking about their feelings. They are afraid of being judged by others, and they fear being seen as weak or too emotional.
This is the reason why some men keep their emotions bottled in because it’s easier to deal with problems on your own than have someone else solve them for you.
However, if you notice that your partner is acting strangely or not acting like himself at all, it could be a sign that something is bothering him and he needs to talk about it so that he can feel better again.
You should not be afraid of bringing up this topic because it could help both of you build a stronger relationship in the future.
Conclusion
When you get the chance to talk to a man and get to know him, you must take some time to discover these secrets about men. You never know what he might be going through or how your words and actions could help him feel better.
