AWWW what a sweetie! I think it's because guys are not so into sharing their feelings are issues. Society builds them that way ie. "suck it up". Horrible things to say but our society is messed up. I think if guys would open up more, there would be less problems between relationships with guys and girls.

Thank-you for that...and I've always enjoyed your posts, and it's so nice to have someone from the male perspective and not to mention someone who is young, but full of wisdom. You are right, we are so there for you, and appreciate you. Thank-you too, my friend! LindaF

From what I hear, women seem to be the ones who have fibro. I know that there are men out there (you obviously ;) with fibro but I guess women are more likely to seek support than men. You are soo sweet. Any woman would be so blessed to have you in her life.

Awwee, not all guys are bad, my guy is one of the good ones. He understands what I'm going through. Today, he made supper, did dishes and laundry, helped put my socks on (twice), gave me a foot rub and a back massage this morning. He fell asleep before me last night and felt bad. :)

Thanks for the replies, all. :)

I've noticed the female majority not only here, but at every forum on DS for the most part.

I am often upset by the fact that men are raised to be emotionless, uncaring, and perverted in order to be "men." I'm so glad to hear that some of you have found men who are true men, not animals or carbon-copies.

I always love to hear from you all. Oh, and thank you for the compliments. :) You guys do wonders for my mental state, and I'll always return the favor if I can in any way. Always feel free to pm me about anything. Nothing you have to say could possibly burden me.

I am new here but it is nice to see a male hanging around to offer his opinion. I'm surprised all the gals haven't scared you away yet with the girl talk. Youare a trooper!

Thank you for the wonderful comments. I am basically new here and have been just watching and answering a few here and there. This is a wonderful place to meet people and see that you are not the only one in pain and with problems. I have only seen a couple of guys out here and yes I too believe it is because men do not share their feelings very often. They do not like to seek the help and support from others because then they would have to admit they are sick and have a problem which men rarely do.

There have been a couple great men on here that know how to behave themselves. Others I have had to boot off my friends life. Just like regualar life I guess. LOL. I'm glad your finding the comfort you need here. Love Cris

I've met some great guys on here. I think it just takes a special person to admit they have weaknesses, and seek help for them.

THAT IS VERY SWEET AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT WE FEEL THE SAME WAY....I'VE ALWAYS WORKED WITH MEN B/C OF MY TRADE AND NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH THEM, BUT YOU COULD NOT TALK TO THEM LIKE YOU WOULD WOMAN....WE LOVE YOU....HELEN

I have heard that more females get fibro than males.

I have come to realize that most men do not like to take to women about pain or personal things. I was lucky to marry a man who does. There's no stress. Thanks for your posting. Peace, Bonnie
