In fact I can pass things off quite easily with a straight face and the thought of showing anything externally just feels awkward. There's always a certain limit that I abide by.I wouldn't mind if I were a tough guy, it seems women like to see the softness underneath a tough exterior. But what if your exterior is soft to begin with?What's more, the idea of even being given sympathy just feels like a cheat and undeserved. Reply to this Question Share |

We like sensitive men as long as we still feel protected by them!

YOU ARE ALLOWED TO CRY TOO every once in a while
most women would love a guy to be a bit more sensitive every once in a while so dont worry at all about that =) make sure you talk to people about your problems that are really bothering you x

No one wants other peoples pity, but we all need to be consoled sometimes. We all have pain and we all, at some point, suffer pain that can only be lifted from us through the help of others. I don't say you should go around crying in front of your buddies or anything, but family members? Yes,thats what they're there for.
