I’ve been listening to a podcast where a woman states that men (young men especially) are feeling a sense of despair and isolation and lack friends who they have emotional connections with. Now my first thought would be that this woman is projecting her own thoughts/feelings on others but a) apparently men have told her this as she’s been doing research and collecting data b) I get the impression with male clients that this is the case, whether it’s friendship or a relationship many men are seeking connection.
I can’t say this is something I’ve ever felt myself, i remember after my mum died a couple of mates text me and said “if you ever want to talk” which I’m not saying wasn’t a nice thing for them to do. But ironically, the last thing I want to do is talk to people about my feelings…..it’s not that I’ve come from a background where ive been told men have to be stoic and resilient but actually I think most of us would be better off if we did keep a bit more of a stiff upper lip.
