Title. Well these days I’ve been feeling lonely, and I feel somewhere male friendships I have aren’t that strong. I’ll be honest, I don’t have many female friends either, but I’ve been particularly felt disappointed by my male peers, especially when it comes to talking emotionally. What are your experiences?

    that’s why it’s important for that bilateral support.

    people who haven’t experienced a need for support can’t understand the level of strength it takes to receive it.

    in a friendship where you’re given everything, guilt builds, which festers into regret and animosity. sometimes that can happen on both sides. sometimes just the figment of it happening is enough to end a friendship.

    if the friendship is important to you, find your strength and find a way to support your friend. sometimes it’s as easy as finding the strength to support yourself.
