Men Need Friendships:

Friendship For Men:

We are created by God to live in relationships - in families and friendships. It ought to be easy, we live at a time in history when we can be connected to anyone, anywhere in the world, in an instant.

Yet in 2025, a Gallup poll found that “US men aged 15 to 34 are among the loneliest in wealthy countries, with 25% reporting feeling lonely for a lot of the previous day.”

Marketing professor Scott Galloway says, “Men have it drilled into us from an early age that vulnerability and emotional connections are signs of weakness.”

I am just like your average bloke - I don’t want to be vulnerable to everyone. But I know I need to be vulnerable to some.

 

 It’s how we connect, it’s what trust and relationships are built on and it will help break the scourge of loneliness.

Karl, thanks.

Final Comment:

You dont need to be a soft,silly sissy to make some manly men into friends.

You need to be motivated to open  some of your inner life courageously to a few trustworthy men or even just one good, trustworthy man. 

Be yourself, but with less reserve or less of, I- can - do - it- on -my -own.  

A I' ve- got-this attitude and not being so wrapped up in being a lone wolf. Even strong wolves had a pack of other wolves to journey with.

And don't despise small beginnings.
