Boys

 From Tam Letham

When boys go through family or life problems, their first solution is to leave the girl who actually loves them.

I said what I said.

It's almost like running away has become easier than opening up.

Instead of leaning on the woman who stood by them through their storms, they push her away, convincing themselves that isolation equals strength.

But what they don't realize is that love isn't a burden. Real love holds space for pain, for uncertainty,

for imperfection.

A mature man communicates. He says, "I'm struggling, but I want you beside me."

A boy, on the other hand, disappears. He ghosts, detaches, and leaves the woman who would've walked through hell just to help him heal.

And in the process, he breaks her heart - not because she wasn't enough, but because he wasn't ready to face his own reflection.

The saddest part?

She'll spend nights wondering what she did wrong, when all she did was love him too deeply.

She tried to be his peace when he was battling chaos, and he mistook her love for pressure.

Men who push away love when life gets hard often realize too late that they lost the one person who truly saw them.

Because not every woman will stay when you return. Some heal, rebuild, and outgrow the pain you left them with.,

So, yes I said what I said.

Boys run.

Men stay, communicate, and build.

Because love isn't meant to be abandoned when life gets hard. It's meant to be the reason you fight harder.

When boys go through family or life

problems, their first solution is to 

leave the girl who actually loves 

them.
