I can’t stress enough how important therapy is. I’m at a barber shop now listening to the radio and the guy being spoken of has incredible childhood trauma from sexual abuse and 💔💔💔
The damage he’s now causing his marriage through cheating is heartbreaking to hear.
Guys!
Men don’t talk because of the rejection and neglect they face in society.
It’s harder to trust anyone because the large majority of times a man opens up, his pain becomes a bullet used against him.
Men know this. That’s why they numb & seek escapes and never show emotions.
It’s unsafe. It feels unsafe to trust and the safety net people say they’ll give you feels like an illusion.
Men minimise traumatising events in their lives by joking about them because the misery around them is too heavy.
That’s why vulnerability sounds like a scam & ploy
@Radio2000ZA is shattering my heart right now you guys. 😭😭😭😭
Yho. Black men have been broken man. To relate to these men’s sexual abuse experiences is gut wrenching and I just wanna jump in and help. I know this pain. I know this pain too well.
Fok. 💔💔💔

1. Does your partner make you a better person, and do you do the same for them?
2. Are you and your partner both comfortable with sharing feelings, relying on each other, being close, and able to avoid worrying about the other person leaving?
For all the times I lied to you about how I look at women and went home to a beautiful wife and kids whom I showed softness to.
The same lines I used to convince myself in ruining my own goodness.
For seeing you become the conviction in my negative words which you built harmful beliefs on and went ahead to devalue, disregard, disrespect & cheat on your then woman. I'm sorry I helped you break her heart.
I'm sorry for all the women I helped you hurt and break and use and shame and taint and turn away from loving you right. I'm so sorry for wronging you and wronging those who chose you to love and care for.
