TD, Internalizers are the ones that keel over dead from heart attacks and strokes associated with High blood pressure, but you are holding a bat, so in adding this comment, I kimmeee do promise to be nice;-)

I guess the same reason "they" don't ask for directions. Pride or they are temporarily distracted. Just my take on it. :0) But we love you guys that are here "your" the good ones we hope to meet some day. :0)

Women are more likely to talk to someone else about their feelings I think, men are more likely to "cowboy up" and bear it alone, maybe? (Speak up, guys, if this isn't the case!)

I for one LOVE men, and don't think they're all jerks....I have a good male friend going through a divorce whose wife could be a clone of my STBX....it's about the person, not their gender!

I LIKE your posts, Rman....they lighten the mood, make us smile, and give us a platform for friendly banter--keep 'em coming!!!!!

Whoops that's what I meant.

Thanks for correcting me.

I'll see if I can find a less offensive avatar. ;)

Women come to talk about their feelings.

Men just watch porn and play with their penises.

Wow

Can you man bash in a man started thread?

I though that was illegal. : /

Thought even.

My ex wouldn't be caught dead on this site. His whole philosophy in life was that everything could be solved with yelling and fists. If not with those then walk away and come back in a few days like nothing ever happened.

If he ever knew I was talking about him here well... let's just say you are all my witnesses.

I actually didn't join this site because of my marriage to him... it was over the loss of the man I fell in love with after... and well... I fell in love with a few on here and stayed.

Oh, we're man bashing now?

Hey, Begin, mine would have his hand in is pants watching football....what's with that?

Because men are supposed to be tough and not have to lean on other people for support.

Right...

She said men.

Not her men/man.

Yah, what is up with that?

You usually do that for baseball games, not football.
I say we revoke his man card, and suspend his human card.

i think men for some reason see it as a weakness to seek out support

Baseball is too slow :)

Boys drool
Women rule

That was my feeble attempt. I will never bash men in general. My ex knows he was wrong and is remorseful but it is still NOT OKAY! There are a lot of wonderful men as I know that there are some awful women....so back to the original post?

Men should get support whether here or there....how else is the chaingoing to be broken from a damaging pattern?

I used to internalize too much and I had stomach problems and would often just run away as some of you know. I have been here almost a year! I have tried to run but through support....still here....so not all women let it out.

And how many men here can put a roll of toilet paper on the tube...I mean really? Go look in your bathrooms right now. I want a show of hands. (Wash them first)
