Why is it so difficult for many men to say what they're actually feeling?
In this episode of Men Talking, Mike sits down with relationship coach Rockie Lee to talk about marriage, communication, loneliness, friendship and the emotional challenges men often experience in relationships.
Rockie has spent more than 12 years working with couples and singles, and he believes many relationship problems come back to our ability to understand what we want, identify what we need and communicate honestly - even when doing so feels uncomfortable.
Mike and Rockie explore why men's friendships can become more surface-level as they get older, how that can contribute to loneliness, and why the same pattern can happen inside a marriage when couples stop allowing their relationship to evolve.
They also discuss:
• Why men struggle with emotions and communication
• Male loneliness and friendship after 35
• Why relationships stop evolving
• Having uncomfortable conversations
• Pride and the need to be right
• Wants vs. needs vs. feelings
• Love as a choice rather than just a feeling
• Vulnerability and heartbreak
• Modern dating and technology
• Masculinity and emotional connection
Rockie's message to men is simple:
“You are loved, and you can still be masculine at the same time, and you can be heard.”
Men Talking - honest conversations about men's mental health, relationships, work, fatherhood, anxiety, identity and life.
