When a man says he doesn't want to talk, he often feels everything but lacks the words or confidence to say it. He shuts down to avoid appearing weak or being misunderstood, not because he has nothing to say.

When a man says he doesn't want to talk, he often feels everything but lacks the words or confidence to say it. He shuts down to avoid appearing weak or being misunderstood, not because he has nothing to say.
Women, when a man says, "I don't wanna talk about it," that don't mean he ain't got nothing to say. Sometimes that means he's got a lot to say, but he just don't know how to say it. And he just don't trust that it's gonna come out the right way. He don't wanna sound weak, but he don't wanna sound misunderstood either. He doesn't wanna show the damn pain he's going through. So what does he do? He goes in there and shuts the damn door. Not because he feels nothing, it's because he's feeling everything.
