It’s easy to dismiss men when they try to talk about what they go through since we tend to think we have it worse as women. However, they have their fair share of insecurities and worries just like us. Men have a lot on their minds and a study showed that 17% of men feel anxious and worried on a regular basis. So, you may be wondering what they worry about. Are they the same insecurities that women go through? Well, here are some things that men worry about.

  1. Finding The Right Partner

Marriage is just as important for men as it is for women. Their future generation depends on the choice he makes for a partner. Hence, they feel more pressure to choose the perfect mate for them. When choosing a partner, it’s not just about finding the prettiest girl, they also have to consider their personality and mentality which is difficult in today’s world which prioritizes looks over personality. Additionally, as the years go by, they feel pressure to settle down and start a family.

6 Ways To Support Your Single Friends Throughout The Years

  1. Being Man Enough

Men nowadays feel like they’re losing their place in society as men. Most of them are raised to believe that they’re a better gender than females. Therefore, seeing more women take charge and get into leadership positions can be emasculating for the male species. It’s also normal for men to cry and express their feelings and though some have embraced these changes, others deem it as being “unmanly”.

  1. Losing Their Girlfriend/Wife

In relationships, men are usually in constant fear of another man taking their girlfriend. It may come from past experiences or insecurities. Men also tend to be more possessive and protective of their women. This is why men find it hard to move on after a breakup since it not only hurts them emotionally but also bruises their ego.

  1. Being A Good Dad

Being a father entails being more than just the provider. It’s important for a child to have guidance from both parents as they both offer something different. While nurturing comes naturally to most women, men worry about their parenting skills. For instance, they worry about their ability to pass on what they know as this is one of the most crucial lessons children can learn from their fathers.

  1. Earning Enough Money

Men are still viewed as providers of the family. Additionally, having more money means they’re manlier. It’s a huge blow on their self-esteem if they’re unable to provide for their family which is why money is a huge cause of concern for them. Most men would rather survive on the little they have than have someone else provide for them.

  1. Being Good In Bed

Both men and women share the responsibility of improving their sex life. However, while men’s sexuality is straightforward, women’s sexuality is really complex and men have to figure it all out in order to satisfy their women. This can be intimidating.

7 Ways To Spice Things Up In The Bedroom

  1. Looking Good

Men care about their physical appearance too. They may not worry about the little things like women do but they worry about their general appearance. Men tend to pay particular attention to their clothes and hair which are some of their most attractive qualities. However, they also worry about their weight and body size even though they don’t talk about it.

  1. Getting Old

Don’t let them fool you, men worry about age probably more than women. While women age gracefully, adapting to their roles as wives and mothers, men don’t handle the transition very well. Most of them prefer to stay in their youthful days of hanging out with the boys and chasing women. It’s no wonder midlife crisis hits men harder than it hits women.
