Do men actually fall in love?

Question

Do they really feel the feelings and emotions the way women do? can they really mean it when they say "you complete me"? or is tom cruise just so cute u want him decapitated?

Answer 1

Men have feelings just like women, they just express themselves differently. We aren't able to communicate properly with each other.

I don't know how sincere your 'you complete me' guy is. But I do know this - men often give a woman what they get from her. They respond to the limits and values they perceive coming from the woman -- they like to test the boundaries, see what they can get away with, etc. So if you're cynical about them having feelings, they'll give you cynicism back. But if you feel genuinely isolated you'd better do two things: first, check your own feelings about intimacy, commitment, vulnerability -- second, check the quality of the guy involved.

As for Tom Cruise, he isn't exactly a teen pin up any more is he?

Answer 2

It is true that women tend to base more on their emotions than men tend to do. But men can fall in love just as well as woman. Some people perceive love differenly than others. To say that women feel the same way and have the same emotions is a stereotype. I'm sure there are women "players" out there too that never seem to fall in love. Point being, we all have different perceptions of love, and that's why sometimes men and women seem to clash when it comes to relationships. That is why there is a great need for compatibility when it comes to having a relationships. Both people should perceive love the same way. If they expect different forms of love than the other is willing to give, then there will be problems. That's just my view anyway.

Answer 3

This is a contemplative question deserving of a contemplative answer...
MEN can feel feelings and emotions the way women do. Whomever you have met that cannot say they love you... probably either isnt ready for love... or is not truly a masculine male... possibly poser in nature... who knows...
The important thing to learn is what kind of love you are looking for in this. We all cant love the same...
No knights in shiny armor in this day and age... or ever for that matter (probably happened once or twice... ever, in our history)

So you are looking for someone to complete you... either for faults you Dont want to tackle or dont have the need to mend.
I used to think this complete me tactic as well (I am also a guy if you havent figured that out by now)

What you are looking for is not completeness by another, but rather a complement in another. They are different because completeness is more about connecting everything in eachothers lives together... which is extremely rare (never heard of it actually happening)
However, "complementing" may consist of an uncommon but not unfindable quality of being able to make up for short comings that angle you off in the direction you wanna go...

So to sum up... you need someone to help you find direction... a light that shines through the doubt you feel. You need this someone you can trust... which might be hard for you... or you might have had difficulty in the past, but above all of this you need someone whom you can have fun and romance with.
Your compass, or gut, says you are looking for this complement... perhaps, forgive the irony, you will find it in a complement someone gives you.

Answer 4

Guys can feel that way too. But Tom Cruise was milking it for all the publicity he could get. Love had nothing to do with what he does

Answer 5

greetings: leos view romance and "love " as a way of life. it's definitely a high agenda item. the reality of it is that the joined at the hip/high drama phase is only a phase, and then one has to settle into reality. long term relationships involve truly caring, and supporting your partner, while avoiding sexual and emotional dependency. they rely on appreciating the companionship while each does his/her "own" thing. to be hyper in love and insecure, fearful of loss, and clingy is popular, but dysfunctional. here's where all the "personal work" which helps to make each of them a "conscious" individual comes into play. people keep suffering about their "bad" relationships. they are bad because one or both parties is/are a bit emotionally challenged. we are all in the same boat in this area, at least to start with. those who research into why the drama is so painful and endless, will wind up with good relationships, both with themselves and others. so, lioness, ask not what your boyfriend can do for you, ask what you can do for yourself. don't forget: *the complete idiot's guide to toltec wisdom*,a great book; and, www.sahajayoga.com. each helps in its own way. cheers!

Answer 6

In general men just tell women what they think they want to hear.
I once read a comment from a woman which said "not all men are bastards;some are dead",unfortunately im sorry to say that there are certainly a lot of bastards out there who care about no one except themselves.There are of course exceptions and I wish you lots of luck in finding yours !

Answer 7

not all men but i belive yes,some. ithink it has to do what they were "allowed" to feel as children. and i also think that tom cruise should be decapitated.

Answer 8

Rarely.. most of the time we either think we do or fake it. The woman in out life usually ends up ripping our hearts out and stomping them into the ground thus making us realize how stupid we were for thinking that we can fall in love...

Answer 9

Sure they do. But what I want to know is are there really men who would never cheat because of that love?

Answer 10

Men fall all the time, It's love that refuses to budge.
