Stig, I feel the need to clarify that I'm not saying that women hate seeing men emotional at ALL--they just don't want to be with an emotionAL man.
When your spouse is having an affair, yeah, you're gonna bawl like a baby. That's understood. Or even if you're the cheating spouse.
But I was speaking specifically of a situation like Heather's where a long time has elapsed. No woman would want to continue to see her man weepy a long time after the fact--no matter how much we say we want to see emotion from them.
What can I say. Women are paradoxical. We say we want emotion but don't get too emotional or it upsets the natural male/female balance of things and we instinctively feel icked out...don't know why, can't explain it, but a weepy emotional man makes women feel uncomfortable.
Just wanted to say that your situation--or any extremely upsetting event--is not what I was talking about.
H.
P.S. Alpha female?? What the devil does that mean?
