Men Over 40 Often Have Only One Goal in Emotional Needs
A middle-aged man in a battle, naturally feels compelled to take on greater responsibility for the realities and ideals of the world than anyone else, without being able to shirk it. Therefore, he lasts longer than young people and feels younger than the elderly.
Adults have experienced many ups and downs in life.
Men over 40, after experiencing the social experiences and life’s storms, do they still pursue love as passionately as young men?
Different people have different answers to this question.
But my answer is, men, regardless of age, always have a certain desire and need for emotions, just with different focuses.
Men over 40 often have only one goal in emotional needs.
Uncle John, 48 years old
Uncle John, 48, lives downstairs in our building.
He has a son and a daughter, and has been divorced from his wife for nearly 3 years.
They share custody of the children, with the son staying with Uncle John and the daughter with the wife.
Now that the children are grown up, Uncle John no longer worries about them.
But when it comes to his own emotional issues, there is always a void.
After the divorce, Uncle John has not been able to find a suitable partner.
Despite many introductions from relatives and friends, he hesitates when it comes to relationships.
Uncle John said, “My ex-wife and I divorced because of various disagreements in life. We were stubborn and unwilling to compromise, leading to the eventual breakdown of our relationship. Now, starting a new relationship, I hope to meet someone who understands me. At my age, I no longer expect too much. Just having someone to accompany and understand me is enough. If not, I’d rather be alone.”
After hearing Uncle John’s words, it struck a chord.
There’s a saying, “The moment you win an argument is the moment you start regretting, it’s a fleeting victory followed by endless remorse.”
In relationships, arguments are inevitable, but some can strengthen the bond while others harm it.
The key reason is often our inability to compromise in marriage.
As we age, our attitude towards life changes. We used to focus on winning or losing, but now we no longer care about such things.
We all long to meet someone who understands us because sometimes what we lack is not a partner, but a soulmate.
Men over 40 need more companionship.
Men get tired, need care, and require emotional support too.
For a man, what can crush him is not the pressures of life, but his emotions.
As the saying goes, “Companionship is the most sincere confession.”
After experiencing life’s ups and downs, what a man desires most is still a woman who is willing to accompany him because simple happiness often lasts the longest.
Men have no outlet for their frustrations and have to deal with work pressures alone.
Providing for the family is a responsibility for a man, but behind that, they also bear immense pressure.
As they age, men care less about pursuing intangible things and instead hope for visible and tangible happiness.
Men over 40 hope to meet a woman who understands them, their unspoken words behind the bitterness, their struggles with life’s pressures, and the pain beneath their toughness.
Understanding is crucial for men. Every man wishes for a wife who is wise and understanding because having such a woman by their side makes life much easier and happier.
A woman who understands men is full of wisdom, and being with her is like nourishing oneself.
Regardless of age, every man always harbors beautiful expectations for relationships.
Everyone has a strong attachment and reliance on their home.
The warmth of home always brings a different kind of feeling to a person.
For a man, building a family and a career is crucial. A home is a harbor of happiness, the strongest support for a man, behind the hard work lies a man’s responsibility and commitment to his family.
Emotions are an indispensable part of our lives, adding more joy to our lives.
Being understood and accompanied is a great comfort for a man.
Life is like this; we all hope for a beautiful relationship and pursue the warmth and happiness of a home.
Men over 40 also hope for a woman’s care and affection in relationships.
