Hello, my name is Sam. There's a lot that I can say about myself, but if you'd like that then you could always message me and we can have a nice cup of tea together :D

I am not very old, so I might not have too much life experience, but I do like to help people. I know that life often throws unexpected blows at people, but I am so extremely optimistic. Hopefully some of my optimism will rub off on the people to whom I am giving advice. I am happy to help with anything! :)

i was just wondering, do guys run away from emotions they are feeling?

like say he is in a committed relationship and its the longest he has ever had by far and his feelings are different then the other two girls he dated, would he run away from it cause he doesnt know whats going on?

i know stuff about guys but i just want to make it certain. and if a girl insults a guy. how hard do they take it? and will they ever forgive a girl for that? or will they test her to see if she will do it again?

sorry silly questions but i need answer. thanks! :) (link)
Hello.

I feel like your hypothetical question could be extended to women as well. Sometimes people get scared when they have feelings that are too strong and are afraid of being hurt. Sometimes they feel too much pressure. Think of people who "get cold feet" just prior to their wedding. I feel that a person who runs away from love or commitment is afraid because of some possible traumatic experience. Maybe that person's parents divorced when that person was really young. Or maybe that person was in a relationship where his partner was the one who broke his heart. Fear can be a terrible thing at times. It is a crippling emotion and can really hurt people. It is especially painful for the other person who is unexpectedly left alone. But I don't think it is accurate to call this a "male" or a "female" issues.

If a girl insults a guy, then he will probably take offense. How hard he takes it depends on the insult and his personality. Unless the insult is life-changing, happened repeatedly, or really hurt his feelings, then he will probably forgive the girl. Again, it all depends. Some guys will test girls, but that kind of behavior only breeds more mistrust. When someone forgives someone the implication is that the person is given a new opportunity to show that the behavior will not be repeated. But by testing someone, a person is implying that he does not trust that person. Healthy relationships need trust.


I hope this is somewhere along the lines of what you were looking for.

Take care
