"Why do I feel this way?"
• I'm sick and tired of being told to sit down, be nice, and stay out of trouble. (Why is it that we can't just be a man?)
• In my relationships with women, why do I either let things slide to keep the peace or blow up and lose it. (Do you then get mad at yourself for doing either one?)
• Is this it – is this what life’s all about? (Did you find that the answer you got from your dad never really panned out – if he answered it at all?)
• Why does society want to emasculate men - Why does it continue. (Where have all the real men gone?)
Ever heard these things before?
• "If you disagree with me you are just being selfish and care only about what you want"
• "You've got to have a great woman in your life and then you can be a real man"
• "One of life's biggest mistakes is to really trust someone, you only get hurt in the end"
• "For those 'little things' - If you don’t like something or think its wrong you don't take a stand –just lie and go along – anything else is being selfish - and on top of that it just isn't nice"
• "You're accumulating a long list of missed opportunities – just think of how great you could've been"
• "You will probably never make it – there really is no complete satisfaction in life"
• "Nobody will ever live up to your standard - and so - be prepared for a life of being let down"
• "You don't appreciate anything anyone does for you – you're just selfish"
Ever struggle with these dilemmas and/or had these thoughts go through your mind?
• "Worry about yourself first - BUT YET – you must try to follow the golden rule of doing to others as you would have them do to you"
• "It's ok to lie if your intentions are good or if you're trying to save yourself - BUT YET - honesty is the most important characteristic of a man – a man's word is his bond"
• "It's a dog eat dog world – watch out for yourself – BUT YET - always do the right thing"
• "It's me against the world, I'm all alone and have to just rely on myself"
