Men Cry In The Dark

Yes, men do cry in the dark. It may sound a little funny, but it does happens. When a man cries it's very unique to the general public even weird to some, right. So most men, who are facing extreme situations, behind closed doors, cry.

So, I asked permission to speak to a friends son. I knew the son was going through some situations. And I was fully aware he needed some encouragement outside of his parents encouragement. The situation is, he recently broke up with his girlfriend who has a child with. He moved out of their apartment and had to move in with a relative. He has no job, no money, no car, owes child support for his oldest child ( not by the same woman). So needless to say his situation is pretty dark. I actually over heard an argument that he was having with his girlfriend or should I say his now ex girlfriend. Argument , full of emotions, loud and vulgar. Definitely unhealthy. After everything went silent I asked could I speak with him.

Why did I want to speak with him? I heard something in his voice that made me feel his mental was really weak. Long story short he began to vent and went on a 1 hour rant. Full with emotions he began to cry . I gave him some words of encouragement shared some life experience and gave him some things he needed to do for himself. After our conversation, I asked how did he feel. He stated, he felt much better with a clearer head.

I share this story because yes men are viewed as strong beings, warriors. But there are a few men who have been seriously injured during battle. Struggling with life decision situations and don't know where to turn to. They feel alone, depressed and in a dark place.Who do they turn to?

Loneliness, depression and darkness can lead to other drastic things. If you know someone like this, reach out to them. Let them know you love them and care for them. Sometimes being just an ear to hear can change the outlook of a persons mindset, including men.
