I didn’t see it as the man being miserable, just keeping other people at a distance. It is just the metaphor for the wall that hurt people build around them. They may still be getting on with other things in life, but it takes a special person to get close enough to bring the hurt person out.
The trouble is, there are so very few special people …
Bullshit. First, we get it, all women are evil bitches who only want to rip out men’s organs.
Secondly, yeah, guess what happens when you have one stable person trying to support the other by “giving their heart”? You still only have one stable person and the other is an emotional leech. Fail.
A simple tale which has a ring of truth to it. I have found from my own experience that giving someone else your heart entirely is a losing proposition. It is dangerous to make another person responsible for our happiness. Likewise, it is a fool’s errand to try to find another person who will make us whole. A relationship in which both people are taking good care of themselves and meeting one another on a peer level has a much better chance of succeeding than a relationship in which one person – or both – tries to make the other responsible for her/his happiness. That kind of system is destine to implode sooner or later.
I speak from the experience of being in a relationship for almost 20 years. We are every bit as much in love now as when we decided to be together. I think we owe the success of our relationship to the fact that we never hold the other person responsible for our feelings or our happiness.
men, dont be a little bitch. otherwise, you will be sad. so, if you do become sad from being a little bitch, let another bitch come up and be the bitch for you. then things work out.
I think the story was missing one part though: The reasoning behind the first woman getting upset. Contrary to popular belief, people usually have reasons for getting upset, and just because you don’t like or disagree with the reasoning, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist…
So I’m left with the internal questions of: Why did she get mad? Did he do something, or was she being irrational?
When my partner is upset with me, it’s either A) I did something wrong and we need to talk about it and I need to make amends, or B) My partner is being irrational, and we need to talk about it until we come to an understanding. But even if my partner is being irrational or I disagree, doesn’t mean my partner’s emotions deserve to be ignored.

Women are not so persistent.
That sad man must be the alpha male, or else he’s rich.
It’s been my experience that when you’re down, nobody wants to have anything to do with you, especially women.
case in point: the comment posted by “loljoebudden”

Yeah, sweet n’ all but I’m going to have to agree with caly. It’s sad but true: being miserable doesn’t make other people want to help you.

moral of the story:
men, dont be a little bitch. otherwise, you will be sad. so, if you do become sad from being a little bitch, let another bitch come up and be the bitch for you. then things work out.

Heh. The last part reminded me of Dragonheart. The whole “half my heart, to make you whole, etc” line.

Touching! I liked it.
