simon,

((((((((hugs)))))))
maybe men of a certain generation do think that showing emotion isnot good for a man. it is an antiquated point of view. give me a man that cries and shows his feelings any day - more ofa man if you ask me, butnooffence to men who find itdifficult.
my husband is very cold. doesn't know how to hug with feeling or emotion, even to my kids which i find hard because i am very demonstrative and touchy feely.i loveto hug and give love. i am not getting the support i need off my husband right now, i feel maybe we are not suited. he is an excellent dad in every other way. but he shows anger soo much easier than love.

please be yourelf and feel free to show your emotions and love and sadness. it takes a real man to cry. pm me any time, i feel for you and want you to learn to be yourself.
take care, don't listen to 'get a grip'. not possiblewhen you are feeling down orscared orinsecure. i am here for you if you need a shoulder

concerned, lovekerry(jinnyann )xoxoxoxoxox
