Why can't a guy show his emotions?

Dishwashers >>>>> people

Only people I love and care about are my mama, my brothers, my father, my grandma, and this chick Ive seen a few times that I have yet to speak to.

boy you smashed something? least you have company.
I think other dudes dont feel comfortable relaying emotions to one another. females feel they should be the only one emoting.
me, I bottle things up all the time. I feel bad for a few then keep it moving. buy some new shoes or play me in c.o.d mw3 ps3.

OP i've been there and know that feeling. Feelings and emotions aren't a bad thing. But one thing I've always reminded myself to never return back to those days is that ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING. There was a point that i stopped feeling sorry for myself and If i wanted to go out, i'd make the effort to talk and hit up people and try to do something. Even if i barely knew them. if i didn't like them or didnt click, no harm done, and just kept trying until i eventually found a solid circle of people that i enjoyed spending time with. Trial and error man, but they were right above. There are a lot of things to still be thankful for even though times are feeling tough. I would say don't get caught up trying to find and hope for a best friend to come around. Just keep trying to surround yourself with likeminded people who give off good vibes and things fall into place after that.

At the end of the day we all gotta take care and worry about ourselves. Know that no one outside your family truly can care about you. Everyone is looking out for #1
Its a bleak way of thinking but its true

I think you are half right. People outside of family can care for you & still look out for #1. Like you said only you can take care if you and them them but that doesn't mean they don't care.

Your people are gonna go through their **** in life & it may take them down different paths but that doesn't mean they don't care for you.

Even when it comes to famous gotta do what's best for you.

Ain't nothing wrong with crying. Get it out the. Keep it moving.

Men are supposed to be strong for their family (wife and kids) it's alright to want to be held once and while but a man needs to be that rock. Don't let Drake fool you. Yea he might **** bad ******* but don't no woman want some overly emotional cry baby *** dude.

Read the post, real men don't need a crutch. Deal with ya **** like a man. Eat it up and move on. Anyone that tells you different is weak.

I think this is something everybody, no matter how popular they are, goes through. It's human nature to be upset when you feel alone and no one wants to talk to you. I think what the problem comes down to is separating friends from acquaintances. From your op, it seems like most of those dudes are just your acquaintances. If they were real friends, they would have supported you and not left you hanging.

Always remember the saying, "If you have one REAL friend in this lifetime, consider yourself very lucky."

Start meditating, it seems you haves bottled up things. Distracting yourself can be good for a time but your really borrowing time instead of enjoying every breath. The past has already happened and the future is yet to come, Death comes unexpectedly so dont try to bargain. Bring your attention to the present moment and in time you will gain deeper insight and find peace and be unmoved regardless the situation. I realy rely on these three thing of No Goal. No Self. No Sign. If I have no goal I simply focus on what I am doing cuurently and whoever I want to become will come to fruition because I have sowed the seed by paying attention to what I am doing. If I have no sense of self then I have no false perception about who I am and dont cling to any image of me. EVERY thing changes even in the smallest sense. EVERY thing is impermanent. Lastly No Sign means I wait for nothing to come my way to inspire me. If you look deep into yourself and take care of yourself before anyone else and do it with Compassion, Love Kindness, and Non Violence you will gain new insight into who you are. The world can be cold and people will try to control you and take pleasure in seeing you suffer but if you are mindful and have self compassion you will be unmoved by any of this. DO WHAT IS NECESSARY TO ENSURE YOU ENJOY EVERY BREATH IN A WORLD THAT IS IMPERMANENT
