This episode explores why some men struggle to say “I love you” even when they truly feel it. It is not always about a lack of love. 

It is often about emotional wiring, past experiences, and how they process vulnerability. By understanding these deeper reasons, you can navigate the silence with more clarity and compassion.

 Topics Covered: 

👉 Emotional barriers that block verbal expressions of love
👉 How upbringing and past relationships shape communication patterns
👉 The role of attachment styles in expressing affection
👉 Why actions sometimes speak louder than words for certain men
👉 Healthy ways to navigate and respond when “I love you” is hard to say
