So how do macho guys deal with their emotions without crying and stuff? I see guys do it all the time....compartmentalizing or something I think its called.


By dying earlier than women who don't do this.

He also dies in about 95% of the movies he is in. Not that it makes him any less bad ***, though.

Being the ultimate manly man (who has prob as many hair products as you do- ask elmo :oops: ) I can easily answer this question.

I do it because I can. I do it so others in my life don't have to bear the burden. I don't think about it. I distract myself with the gym, with work, with my xbox, with drawing, assing off in Hellfire, and any other of a hundred distractions to keep me from actually looking at things and getting mad/depressed/melonchaly etc. All too often I have to be "the rock", and I don't mean Dwayne Johnson, tho I do look good in tights. When the distractions cease to work, I do the introspective thing, then I chastise myself for being a wuss and cowboy right back up. It's a perpetual motion machine fueled by distraction, bravado, and a sense of duty. I don't suggest getting on this treadmill- it sucks. Find time to express yourself and use it. You'll be a ton saner for it.

Lift heavy **** and put it back down. Exercise helps get my mind off things. Gotta fill your head with other stuff. Disassociate from it until you've had time to adapt and deal with it.

Assuming the problem and cause of the emotion is something you cant do anything about. If it's a recurring problem, i.e. a relationship issue, health issue, what have you, then you obviously dont just ignore it. Confront it and make it work, do your best.

About 90% this.

I had a question for my macho taco.

Image

I asked it "Taco, why are you so awesome?"

Its said nothing, quietly confident in its machoness.

Then I ate it.

Its was indeed, awesome.

Mus had it, heavy bag. I spend a lot of time in the gym or my garage pounding the crap out of a heavy bag.
