How do you get a man to communicate his feelings. I can pour my heart out and get no response. He will listen, but will not ever tell me his feelings. The only kind of answers I get are whatever I think, or whatever you want to do

As a Male , I often hear that refrain you don't share your feelings. On one hand, women always seem to want men to be more open to share and their inner most feelings. On the other hand when we do we are seen as wimps. We are as told that our feeling are not valid or worthy or we just don't get it. Why is that? It is because we don't think and feel like a woman does. On one hand woman want their man to be strong and in control. If we share and go to the tender emotional side we are called wimps and spineless, a momma's boy. The unconscious message that many women send men is be open feeling, but you better not to open. Cross that line and you are spineless, be to far on the other side you don't share. As time goes on men are more and more on a very narrow tight rope. It is very tricky balancing act. Most men don't except a woman to be like a man. We may complain about womanand thier emotional needs . The truth is we don't really want them to change how they feel and act. for the most part men like woman and yes they like them for more then just sex.
