      Life is an eternal battle between “I won’t pry, he’ll tell me if he wants” and “I won’t bother him, he’ll ask me if he wants to know”.

      I am being facetious, but this isn’t far from true. True human connection between men is very informal. It’s mostly about being around each other

        It took me too long to really understand this about men. It just never made sense to me that guys wouldn’t want to talk things out. I’m so happy that I don’t need to do that song and dance anymore.

      Some friendships just work in different ways.Some talk at length about the problem, others talk around the problem. Mostly it a mix of both. As long as everyone involved feels connected the words used don’t matter
