What Guys Want But Won't Say Out Loud

We were talking about making friends and it occurred to him that he did not have any friends. He’s in his early 60s and he and his wife took early retirement. His best friend is his brother-in-law and they don’t really do anything together. In fact, he said he feels like he is imposing on his friend’s time when he wants to hang out.

Every man wants male friendship.

We want it, but we don’t want to talk about it. We’ve lost the skills of being around others and finding great connections. We don’t want to sound pathetic, lost, or like a loser.

Men are suffering in silence and don’t know what to do.

Friends, this is why it is imperative we take the lead in our friendships. Other guys around you want to make friends but are afraid to say they are lonely. Artificial Intelligence is not going to help us make more connections and friends.

Every friend you make will not become a best friend. But you might make some so-so friendships that help other guys make their best friends. You don’t have to read books, write newsletters, or consume articles about men and friendships.

When you make a friend, you are pulling another man out of the silent majority.
