Recently, I’ve written several rather eye-opening posts on how bitter men view women, how fragile masculinity is the root of controlling behavior in relationships, the psychological underpinnings between male fragility and abuse.

10 Surprising Reasons Why Men Ignore Their Wives’ Unhappiness

When wives express unhappiness in a marriage, many women find themselves questioning whether their husbands genuinely care. Although it’s often assumed that a loving spouse would naturally be concerned about their partner’s emotional well-being, the reality can be quite different. Just my personal life observation, but I don’t think most men truly care about their wives’ unhappiness, due to all the walkaway wives out there. One of the biggest complaints from walkaway wives is how they begged their husbands to spend time with them, at the very least, and the men ignore it. They reinforce this by making you believe …

6 Reasons Walkaway Wives Never Regret Leaving ‘Good’ Husbands

Walkaway wives are often misunderstood, labeled as heartless or ungrateful for leaving what many would consider “good husbands”. However, the reality behind their decisions typically involves much deeper, more complex issues than the surface-level complaints of neglect or emotional disconnection. I can relate to this. On the outside, my husband may look like a great catch, and in many ways he is. He’s responsible, a hard worker, good-looking, he cooks, a great dad…all the things…and I have made sure to tell him this over the years. However, the day to day disrespect, dismissive attitude, snapping, being passive-aggressive, drinking, etc. has …

She maintains an immaculate home, raises perfect children, and supports her husband unconditionally. But beneath this polished exterior lies a silent struggle. Good Wife Syndrome isn’t just about traditional gender roles or being overly accommodating; it’s an insidious cycle of perfectionism that drains women emotionally and mentally, often in ways that aren’t immediately obvious. I’ve previously written posts about how Good Wife Syndrome can lead to Walkaway Wife, as well as the many ways being that perfect wife …

How Bitter Men View Women: 15 Shocking Examples of How They Cope

The Bitter Men Club strikes again. Content creators for the news aggregator that I write for, get NO options for blocking these mouth breathers, whose boorish comments lend absolutely nothing useful to the conversation. Just the same bitter men and their usual word vomit, befitting of the lonesome losers they know they are. I know most content creators don’t bother reading the comments. I can see why. If I was one of thinner skin, I think it would start affecting my mental health. However, my skin has thickened, and that is why I’ll be sharing some of their more revealing …

On other issues? Not so much. Since I write about relationship issues, I am always on the lookout for material to write about in relationship based groups, as well as in the comments (in fact the comments are much more interesting than the actual post, in my opinion.) Since 2016, I’ve …
