Family › Re: How Do Men Become Bold, Fearless And Confrontational? by merits(m): 8:46pm On May 12 |
I iyke484real: Good evening fellow Nairalanders.
Something happened today that has really made me question myself as a man, and I sincerely need honest advice from mature minds here.
Earlier today, my younger one went to the field to play football. After some time, he came back home crying seriously with blood rushing from his head. According to him, he had an altercation with someone much bigger than him, and the person picked up a stick and hit him on the head.
Immediately, I became angry and asked him to take me to the field to identify the person that injured him. Deep down, I was expecting myself to react aggressively because I felt any normal man would naturally defend his younger one and confront the person strongly.
When we got there and I saw the guy, something happened to me. Instead of fighting or causing a serious scene, I just started asking questions about what happened. I couldn’t bring myself to react violently or aggressively the way many people probably would have. I eventually carried my younger one and went back home.
Since then, I have been feeling ashamed and disappointed in myself.
The painful part is that this is not the first time I have noticed this about myself. I always seem to avoid problems, confrontations, or situations that may escalate. Even when I am angry, I still start thinking about consequences, expenses, police issues, public embarrassment, injuries, and other complications that may arise if things get out of hand.
Because of this, I often withdraw instead of standing my ground fully.
Now I am beginning to feel like I am too timid and not confrontational enough as a man should be. Sometimes I feel weak, powerless, and unable to command respect the way other men do. I see some people react boldly in difficult situations while I keep overthinking consequences and avoiding escalation.
Honestly, it is affecting the way I see myself.
Please, I need sincere advice from experienced people here:
- How can someone stop being too timid or fearful? - How do you become more confident and confrontational when necessary? - How do you stand your ground as a man without always retreating? - Is this kind of behavior weakness, or is there another way to look at it? - What practical things can I start doing to become mentally stronger and more assertive?
I would genuinely appreciate honest advice, especially from men who may have struggled with similar issues before overcoming them. Why must you be a coward as a man?you disappointed your younger brother big time,as a man always be fierce when the need be. |

Yet properties are more expensive than far more developed cities in the US. cry 😭 cry baby 🍼🐥 how are you? Shame. |

Family › Re: His Wife & Children Mistreated Him. He Secretly Sold His House & Left Them by merits(m): 10:13am On May 07 |
ariesbull: Is What This Man Did Okay? Is It Right ?
This retired civil servant in Abuja sold his family house without telling his wife or children.
Months before anyone suspected anything, the original house documents had already been quietly moved out of the house for safekeeping.
So when strangers eventually showed up for inspection, it had already gone too far to reverse.
That house wasn’t inherited. It came from years of deductions, years of sacrifice, living inside one of those government quarters that were later sold to occupants.
But retirement changed the balance of power inside the house.
His wife controlled most decisions, and gradually the children adopted her tone until the man who paid for the roof over their heads became almost invisible inside it.
He said there was even a period he fell seriously sick and nobody asked if he had eaten before leaving the house each morning.
Around that same period, his entire gratuity was taken to fund a family business. It was supposed to help everyone. It collapsed before one year.
That was when the quiet planning began. Not loudly, not emotionally but silently. He decided he would rather start life again alone than remain in a house where he felt unwanted.
Months later, the house was sold privately for 90 million.
A smaller house in a quiet suburb was purchased for 18 million, and the rest was secured quietly.
At home, nothing looked suspicious. No arguments, no sudden tension.
Weeks before leaving, clothes were gradually packed under the excuse of sending them to the dry cleaner.
Then one day, he travelled for what was described as a consultancy job. He never returned to that house again.
The truth surfaced the day the new owner sent people to inspect it.
Panic started immediately, his children that haven't checked on him since he travelled started calling nonstop, asking what was going on. That was when he confirmed it himself.
Yes, the house had been sold. By then, nothing could be undone.
Attempts were made to trace his new location, but he had already moved carefully and deliberately. He said something that stayed with me since I heard the story:
“I didn’t abandon my family… I simply inherited myself before they buried me alive."
