Very unorganised write up
Re: Top Reasons Men Withdraw Emotionally From A Relationship - by UjSizzle(f): 7:47am On Jul 07, 2014
So men withdraw emotionally because they aren't emotionally mature to handle their emotions--which is in essence foreign territory to them.

Right undecided

Women set the example and emotional tone that allows their partner to feel safe.

When a man faces a woman who is emotionally stable, it allows him to understand his own emotions. The depth of understanding that the woman has with herself and her own emotional nature will give him the security to express and unveil his own strengths. The woman who is emotionally secure brings a presence of emotional security to the relationship.
A well meaning man will appreciate this and do his best, and grow faster and reveal the depths of his spirit with increasing strength and confidence.
Granted, the ideal is that a man can figure out his emotional state and come into his own emotional maturity through his own self-generated willpower.

Yet the reality is that teachers, guides and mentors accelerate this process and help a person navigate the confusing and mysterious realms of emotions. There are a great many pitfalls and bewildering mirages when it comes to the shifting sands of sensitivities. And as man learns his emotional state, he is also facing the additional challenges from his friends, family, and world that challenges that awakening at every step.

The woman who is insecure with her own emotions will see a man who withdraws as a threat and denigrate him and go on the attack. This is the antithesis of supportive behavior. She may not realize that he is a man who is brave beyond measure to face his own soul and bare his spirit with vulnerable trust. When a man doesn’t respond as she needs and demands at the emotional level, lashing out will only cause harm. Gentle understanding and compassionate acceptance brings healing and deepens the relationship.

One of the best qualities women have is the ability to nurture. Nurturing is not aggressive. And with a man, directing aggression at him will generate an aggressive response. He will either fight or run. The flight or fight response is deeply ingrained into every human being. In essence, attacking a man who is opening his heart will trigger a survival level instinct.

Once that survival level power fully awakens in relationship, the dynamics in the relationship changes and may never come back to equilibrium.

Nurturing is not forceful, instead it is accepting and allows for a natural growth curve. Be patient.

Just as a tree takes time to come into its fullness and blossom, a man who is learning to embrace his deeper truths will need time to fully ripen into his potential.

Appreciate the men who take the time to stand up against society to discover, feel, live and unleash their sensitive side. It takes a lion’s heart full of courage to face down societal expectations and programmed beliefs.

Give him gratitude, honor his spirit, thank him for being available with his sensitivity in ANY way that he is able. Such a person is one of a kind, a warrior in the truest meaning of the word.

Let's face it and tell ourselves the truth... This writeup won't win any awards!!
Re: Top Reasons Men Withdraw Emotionally From A Relationship - by ihedinobi2: 8:16am On Jul 07, 2014
Cool stuff. Resonates with me although I think that the author leaned more toward making excuses like one failing at a responsibility than they should have.

Men, whether we blame it on conditioning or genes, are designed not to be overly emotional. We are designed to be a rock and a stay. We are not designed to waver and change with the weather. Men's maturity is in dependability not in "sensitivity". That latter is for the woman. The emotions that men are most conversant with are essentially appetites - anger, sexxual passion, hunger, determination. All of this make achieving the point of manhood possible. Sensitivity and a poking around inside another person's psyche negates them because when a man is unsure about anything his function as a man begins to fail.

None of that means that attempting to be understanding is wrong, unacceptable or unworthy of the energies of a man. It only means that a man's part is not to be forever attuned to the subtle changes in another person because he will be frustrated not being equipped for that. But he can choose to remain a rock no matter what mood his woman is in. She should be able to count on him to cover her no matter what. When she wants to talk, his ear should never be far. When she isn't up to talking, his shoulder should be near. When she has no idea what's going on and which way is up or down she should be able to take her bearings from him.

Emotion does not make a man. It is, in fact, apt to ruin him if he does not take it in hand and rule it.

Good Points, but i think the writer is referring to the initial stage of the relationship, when they successfully win the initial Drama, the man will be comfortable and become the "Rock" you are describing
