Men friendships last longer because they let everything slide!(Update: Matt504 agrees)

I worked at Walmart. So I let her use my discount card. I think she had it for months.

I ended up moving to another city, and i tried to get a 2nd card, but they ended up canceling the first one all together. I guess she must have went to the store with it. And they had it reported loss or stolen. So I guess she got embarrassed.

She called me talking bout, all the stuff I did for you in your life, you ungrateful and some other shyt.

I was gonna respond with disrespect but u understood it was my brother wife and kids mom and I didn’t wanna ruin that relationship, so i told her she was tripping and that she never really in life had to do anything for me when I was growing up. And I explained to her what happened and told her “we don’t ever have to talk again”.

And since I’ve had 2 kids so she’s made contact to congratulate me and talk about the kids and stuff, but I give her dry responses and shyt. I’m good on the relationship.

Me and my brother never discussed it, I don’t even know if she ever told him

Our relationship never changed.

Somebody let me use their Walmart discount card for a while and I was spoiled as shyt from that 10% discount so I understand the hurt

When they needed that shyt back I was like

Which is why I said most men.

Does your singular situation hold as representation for men everywhere?

No, so my opinion still stands most men don't have friends, just associations with fellow men that sometimes mirrors traits of what a friendship would be like but in actuality it's not a true friendship.

Are you self aware

 

[xXOGLEGENDXx]

That ain't true.

How so?

What's good for the goose is good for the gander. If everyone is always generalizing why does it make a difference today??

I've experienced great friendships with women, seen bad friendships btwn women and same btwn men. Everyone wants everything to be so black and white and life just doesn't work like that.

Nah y’all the only ones who go to Miami for the weekend and come back not friends, go to Mexico on vacation and come back one short. That’s not most men experience

 

[kaldurahm]

Men don't hold grudges, and tend to forget. I feel like that's low-key the best quality men have; forgetting whether it's on purpose or not.

Nah, she’s more than likely that Sidney Deane / Mr Goodbar poster.

as if there aren't a million men in jail for killing a dude they was once cool with. we can do this all day and twice on sundays

folks will be a lot better off when they learn to speak for themselves and stand on their own shyt.... that's if you have your own shyt to stand on rather than needing a demographic based back-up

edit: oh and in that whole mexico point you made, the alleged "best friend" was a man. Oop!

Your opinion was pulled out your ass. That's why most women don't understand men. Because y'all assume you already know everything about us.

Boys receive messages that growing up and “manning up” mean shedding that soft side — a mindset that neuroscience, social science and developmental psychology all show is harmful to them, Way said.

“We gender relationships as feminine,” Chu said. “If that’s a feminine thing, it becomes a weakness or a liability if (men) admit to needing friendships.”

Why most men don't have enough close friends | CNN

Adult friends are hard for everyone — especially for men told that opening up to someone else is only for women. But experts say that the social, emotional, mental and health benefits should make friendships a priority for everyone.

I said gay men fall in the same group. Y’all in the same friend. They ain’t in our friend group

on dogs this bird is trying to use that one bum anecdote and literally all the men in this forum are telling her she's wrong. cognitive dissonance at its finest

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

Y’all gonna learn to stop arguing with humans that draw their faces on and question your “realness”

man fukk off back to LSA every man in here told u you're wrong. again how you going to tell a MALE about his life looking thru the lens of FEMALE

 

[Kiyoshi-Dono]

This is a crock of shyt I'm cracking up at this thread rn. I'm also laughing at ya'll being mad at that poster for generalizing male friendships meanwhile all y'all do is generalize women day in and day out.

Which begs the question to female posters
What do you gain from posting on this forum
No matter what men say
You take umbrage with it
And always move the goalposts to fit your narrative
If men are always wrong about everything
And we are not needed for the advancement and betterment of society
Why be amongst us
Surely it’s not that you need attention or ego stroked is it
Not enough attention from men offline like many of you claim to be boss bytches with multiple degrees
It’s quite convenient the threads and topics many of you run into
To try to big boy talk nikkas or find every loophole to minimize men’s experience with your gender
I wouldn’t go on LSA or any other site full of women
Trying to lambast them into submission
So why is it the select few of you stay with the bullshyt
Any man with decorum and intelligence understands your plight as women
But women don’t give two fukks about our opinion
And only see men as a utility to the end
Truly perplexing
And you goof ball nikkas feed these entitled children in adult bodies everyday
But y’all get to the bag and are eligible bachelors
I sure as hell can’t tell
