    Men are also different from women. Not just physically but mentally. Part of the problem the writer had was not understanding how male friendships work and expecting a mirror of female friendships. Certainly it can be lonelier as a man but in some ways it’s just the way we are.

    You ain’t never had a friend.

      in some ways it’s just the way we are.

      Is it? What makes you think that our loneliness is inherent to us? How is it inherent to us?

        I’m just saying that men in general have a much easier time being alone. I don’t think we should always be alone, but more men than women have the ability to be solitary and happy at the same time.

          What if being solitary and happy has zero foundation in being a “man” but comes about from being rejected by society as the man one is?
