Men Deserve the “Male Loneliness Epidemic”
They are not really alone. They just don’t know how to treat a woman correctly.
I’ve been watching the conversations around the “male loneliness epidemic” on the internet for months now, and I keep seeing the same pattern: men lamenting their isolation while simultaneously doing everything possible to push people away.
They complain about having no close friendships, yet they mock emotional vulnerability as “feminine.” They claim women don’t understand them, while refusing to communicate their actual feelings. They want deep connections but treat every interaction like a transaction where someone owes them something.
And then they wonder why they are lonely.
And don’t get me wrong, I know feeling lonely is a real problem that affects everyone. But when I see men blaming feminism, social media, or modern dating culture for their isolation, I can’t help but think: They have earned this.
The male loneliness epidemic exists because men want to control women instead of respecting them.
Most of the single men I’ve seen complaining about how lonely they are don’t see women as someone to connect with, but rather as a “game” they must win.
