David david david..... I can only agree with a little of what you said.
I've been married to the same man for 52 years and I know him pretty well. When Michael killed himself Mr.Alffe tried to be stoic for my sake. At the funeral (and it was a huge funeral with his peers there) he was social, affable, and grateful for the "turnout".

What was he feeling? Like a failure. If he can't fix the doorbell he feels like he failed. I can't remember ever seeing him cry and that is amazing and very sad imho.

The men I've known feel like they have to "fix" everything and as I've said before, somethings just can't be fixed.

There's a place for all of us in this world but surely you men need to lighten your load. And there is nothing more appealing to women then men who show their feelings...if men could only get that!
