Your wife will not be your "partner". Your parents will evolve into people who need help, cannot give help. Your kids will DIE if you fuck up even a little bit.

Analogy: group of people with cancer get together. We can commiserate, share a laugh at inside-things that healthymos would not get.

But in the end, we battle this cancer all on our own, each of us.

parents have been the most surprising. wife’s and mine aren’t even old, and have plenty of money yet they’re still needing things from us. lol at boomers as grandparents. can’t imagine how bad it will be when they’re actually old with failing health

also shit like the doctor because they all refuse to retire so wouldn’t “waste” time taking their spouse when they can be working.

they seem to think we have all the time in the world because wife is a sahm and i’m my own boss. and that we’re never tired or could use a break because we’re “young” even though we have five kids including an infant.

for the others there’s still things like colonoscopies, biopsies etc

and then they want an “advocate” with them at the doctor if it’s anything more serious than a basic checkup

I agree that nothing prepares you for it though. It's messed up that we don't explain this to boys so they can hit the ground running in adulthood

So much of the stuff that we tell to boys is just straight up sabotaging them. It's fucked

They didn’t say you’d be abandoned. Not dramatically, but in the slow-drip way. You throw your back out and no one offers help. They’ll say they “didn’t see the text.”

You learn quickly: need is a repellent.

Need something from a man and you’ll find he’s moved states. Need something from a Woman and she’ll call you toxic. Need something from your parents and they’ll ask if it can wait until after their Viking River Cruise.

God help you if you ever say this aloud. You’ll be mocked, exiled, medicated, called a Joke.

You are probably jewish and too close to your mother (she was a whore, that’s why she did this) and now you have girl brains and think there’s something inherently bad with this

Men do not naturally feel this way—they only develop this sort of orientation after an upbringing of homosexualized longhouse psychoemotional rape
