And again, they cry in the dark because they're embarrassed about a lot of what they've been through or what they've gone through. So they have nobody to turn to. So that's where the question comes up who to turn to. And also the same question is when is it okay to be vulnerability if there's a time where it should be okay or not be okay in regards to vulnerability? So that's what I want to leave with

I think that the notion of vulnerability is in absolute and it's the awareness of it, but not so much a decision. I think if you're aware that you're vulnerable, maybe you convince yourself that you can be protected or invulnerable. And if you're vulnerable, you don't get the notion of it being a threat, because it isn't. And I think that the question is to recognize that we are impacted and affected by opinions and attitudes and that we look for approval

So I really love your point and opening up, and I do think it's so unfortunate that men have a harder time with this. But I think it is so important that you mention it because it goes hand in hand with relationships and having a reciprocal relationship in any sense of the word, whether it's a mate, friends, family in general or just even children. Raising your children to see you be a little vulnerable within reason. And teach them that they can do this

Again for vulnerability, I mean it's not the easiest thing, more so when you're going through things, but at the same time if you can be vulnerable around people, that's a good thing as well

But at the same time, people, they have their reasons on why they're vulnerable. But what happens at the end of the day is, again, you have to choose who you feel you can be vulnerable around
