Once you realize as a man you ain’t gotta explain a thing… let people create narratives, and once you learn that 1 person is too small to focus solely on… life becomes easy. It takes about 30 years of age to realize this. Ignore the world and get to the bag. Drama is a distraction.
I just heard a man on a podcast admit that many men do not actually leave relationships when they are unhappy, emotionally disconnected, or no longer invested. Instead, they slowly withdraw effort, communication, affection, respect, and consistency until the woman becomes exhausted enough to finally walk away herself. And honestly, that realization is heartbreaking.
