Why Don't Men Like to Talk About Their Feelings & Emotions?
829513
Most guys when they find out that their girlfriends want to talk about their relationship or feelings or whatever, they think that there's a problem or something. Guys are like that, they'd never examine or look into anything at all unless something is wrong with it. Not a lot of guys talk about their relationship with their girlfriend just because they should. It's usually only if there's a serious problem or something, otherwise they'll just think then what is there to talk about ? what is there to say about it ?

The key to that would be never to say things like that lol make then think u really don't care!! The bad thing is you are a guy and was being totally honest with how u feel and i would love to find a guy like that!! I wish more guy could tell how they feel and what they want!!

Guys won't talk about their feelings until they feel they can trust you.  If you ask them outright, they'll avoid it because it's being forced out, or they feel threatened.\n\nYou have to understand that men act the way they do, not because they're jerks, it's that they are different from us.\n\nMen normally SHOW, I repeat, SHOW their feelings, they don't talk about them.  Most guys don't really understand how they feel.  Asking a girl out is the hardest thing for them, because it's showing that they like you.  If you don't accept, they've left themselves open to attack.  I know it's stupid but that's the way they think.\n\nIf you want a guy to ask you out, drop hints about it, like "I don't really know what I want to do on Saturday".  Or "what are you up to this weekend?"  Stuff like that.  When you want a guy to talk about his feelings, don't outright ask him, because he really needs to think about it for a while before talking about it.  Start talking about how you enjoy doing things, and how much fun it is.  He'll start to respond.  Never ask a guy about what he's thinking about, because most of the time, he's not really thinking about anything.\n\nThe real way you can tell if a guy loves you?  See how hard he tries to do things for you.  See how hard he tries to make things good for you.  If you want him to like you even more, thank him for doing these things.  Tell him something flattering about what he did.  He'll brush it off saying it was nothing, or something like that, but he's trying to minimize it, and avoid being embarrased.  Inside you just made him feel really important and special.

Hi luv!\n\nBecause we accept our emotions, and deal with them instead of ignoring them and repressing them.\n\nIf men would be more open and honest about themselves and their own feelings and emotions, I am sure men & women would get along alot better!

not all men are weak, they are just unsure how to say what they feel, men's emotions don't mature for many years beyond what their bodies do.

Many men do not have social skills enough to open up in conversation.  They keep a lot of things inside and women talk too much....)(

some guys have a hard time expressing their feelings, its not the manly thing to do, which is a shame because its what us girls want to hear. all you can do is tell him how you feel, either by talking to him or writing to him. some men are able to write there feeling down rather then talking about them. when he feels more at ease im sure he will be able to tell you his feelings.

well men just don't quite function like women.  It's hard for them to understand our emotional needs.  They're like little kids.  Full of energy, jumping from exciting activity to another sometimes they just forget that we exist.  Emotional stuff is just not really in their train of thought unless we sit them down and tell them exactly how we feel and tell them what we want and need.  After he knows exactly what we want then he has no excuse for ignoring our needs.  We fullfill their physical needs they should do so for our emotional ones.

I read what you wrote twice.\nI still don't know what you are asking.\n\nAdditional:\nRemember that many men are not very good at talking about emotional things.\nIf you are committed to each other then you must discuss how you feel - you must try to see each other's point of view. It sounds to me that you have different priorities at the moment.\nWhat is it that you want? Can he provide this at the moment?

Some of the men prefer lie to make the other feel better or the situation look better. However, women will cry when they know they are lain even the lie is with a good reason behide.\n\nHow do you think?

Guys tend to do that , they don't like to talk about their day specially if they are facing problems in their job or something, because they feel that if they tell you the problem they might sound like they are asking for help and they don't like that, read "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus" it explains it all.

From personal experience . . . I always dred when a woman wants to "talk" about a relationship.  The state of the relationship talk is frequently a poor subject to bring up with a male partner.  If you don't want to be in a serious relationship, there is no reason to talk about the current state of affairs.  Enjoy what you have now, and live in the moment.  Chances are, after a while, things will develop into a more meaningfull relationship.

Well women use emotions to confuse men, so men stop listening to what they feel. Usually the first woman to confuse them was their mother; by not being honest about what she really feels and distorting everything.  Mothers try to prove that they love their male child when all the actions say other-wise. So men withhold their emotions because they don't want to express their anger at their mother. Instead they pile it up on the women in their lives, and stay immature men forcing them to become their mother.\n\nWhile women listen to their emotions, but distort them when they are sexual because their father cannot accept that they are sexual beings of their own and so they stay daddy's girls and are unable to be honest with a man and prevent themselves from connecting to men on a honest level and prefer to be their mother away from their mother instead of being a woman when in fact they are angry towards their father and so they become their emotionally unstable mothers.\n\nThere that sums up a lot of neuroses.

WOMAN ARE VERY EMOTIONAL BECAUSE THEYRE NOT SCARED TO EXPRESS HOW THEY FEEL. INDEED MEN ARE EMOTIONAL TOO, ITS JUST THEYRE SUPPOSED TO FOLLOW A TOUGH STRONG EMOTIONLESS IMAGE.  WOMAN ARE KNOWN TO BE WEAK AND EMOTIONAL, WEARAS STEROTYPE SHOWS THAT MEN ARE NOT.  CONCLUDING THAT SINCE WOMAN EXPRESS THEMSELVES AND ARENT AFRAID TO WEAR THEIR HEART ON THE SLEAVE, THEY ARE MORE 'EMOTIONAL'.  IN MY OPINION, MEN ARE JUST AS EMOTIONAL AS WOMAN, THEY JUST DONT HAVE ANY BA**S TO ADMIT AND SHOW IT....... =)     \n\nTHERES A SAYING, "ONLY A REAL MAN WEAR PINK"  ♥

Guys are shy when it comes to feelings and the like.  Also they don't like to open up unless they are almost positive the feeling is returned, they don't like to be hurt.  Sometimes you just have to coax it out of them.

Guys, afraid to love? You must be kidding! Guys are warm & affectionate & generous with their emotions. We share and confide and console. I can't imagine WHAT you're talking about.\n\n(Actually, most guys are like your boyfriend. We don't learn to express our emotions very effectively and, when we're young, we feel so many different things depending on what our hormones are doing that day, that we don't know WHAT to express when we WANT to express it. Best thing for you, just move on. You'll find someone.)
