I think we get it confused a lot thinking and believing that men don’t have feelings. We’ve been trained at a young age to ignore our feelings and man up but to really man up means to know that you have feelings and to communicate them clearly with the others including the opposite sex. To be emotionally intelligent requires us to talk to others and let them know how we feel in a respectful way and to understand why others do what they do as well to get a better understanding of them and of ourselves. Keep doing your best to focus on your progress and getting in control of your emotions and not holding them in or lashing out.
