Why Men Suffer In Silence: How To Embrace Vulnerability To Create Healthy Love | Jason Wilson

Like, that's not what we're looking at. Look intently in your eyes for 60 seconds. and then say these statements, you know? And so during that process for a man to stay there for one, he becomes emotional. Even when we have fathers and sons, when they're having a conflict in their relationship, I have them sit in front of each other and without saying a word, communicate through their eyes only.

Within a matter of seconds, the father starts crying. Yeah. Because now he can convey with his heart what his words won't allow him to say.

And then lean into it. That's really good, man. It works when I work with the young boys in the Cave of Adullam. I'll say, look at me here. I'm here. I'm talking because they want to break contact. Of course. I know. Stare here. Look at me so you can not only hear my words, but see the sincerity in my eyes that I love you. It's just a little tough right now, but we're going to work through this.

Yeah. it breaks them down, man. And even, especially with men and, uh, Nicole and I, my wife, we were laying in bed and she said, Hey, I need to connect with you. And what that means is that we stare into each other's eyes at least for like three minutes.

That's a really good question. Um, I'd be transparent with you. With men, it's not an issue because I've been doing it for 20 years, working with boys and men. Well, my wife, she'll often say, why are you looking off? Look at me in my eyes because I have the exercise in there. And I tell men, you may need to break contact, eye contact for a moment because it can get intense. Of course.

But reset back. And the reason it is is because just some unresolved hurt years ago. Same thing with her. We're processing and still growing. And then to move past that and say, no, I'm right here. Or I know I may tear up because of how much I love her, and so I'll break off. I don't want to dive deep right now. And so to give her all of my heart... And that's deep for a man.

Like, I'm locking into you like this and I'm staying there. And now, because you were smiling at first, then eventually the smile goes and you're really into deep communication. And then now the heart's open.

Look up. And she says, why do you do that? And I'm like. I don't know. It's still uncomfortable. I'm still unlearning what I've been living from for so many years. And that's why I tell men, stop thinking it's a master level in manhood. It's not. You have to keep evolving. And so I've gotten better.

You know, it's interesting because Nicole is very understanding. We wouldn't have been married 26 years if she hadn't accepted some of my ways. Of course. I'm an introvert who extroverts well. Okay, that's me. wholeheartedly, like concerts, any of that, I'd rather be doing nothing at home. Yeah, just relax. So she does a great job at that.

It's me just, again, what you asked about the attribute of the comprehensive manner or the characteristic that I have the most trouble exuding is that gentleman characteristic and really just allowing that part of my heart to open more to her. And that's something that's my next something else I will have victory over. So, yeah, that's great. Definitely.

I love being transparent because I don't want men to think like, well, he's arrived. Like, no, my brother is constant, evolving, constant. It's a journey. My wife and I call marriage a beautiful struggle. And because it is in as far as like a weight training or any type of conditioning to get your body where you want it to go. It's the same way with your mind as well and your heart.
