Married Men Just Want To Be Left Alone?(Careful You May Get Your Wish)

I find myself observing people. I like to watch and listen to people interact. I find it interesting, often amusing and a good way to pass time as I am often required to hurry up and wait in my daily life.
For example I walk by an inner city bus stop everyday on my way to my job and I overhear in that brief moment some things that make me laugh or shake my head all day. Sometimes just watching and listening isn’t good enough and I just have to comment,prompt, or even provoke additional conversation just to amuse myself.
Well, so what ,good for you. How does this effect me, and what does it have to do with being left alone?
So glad you asked. In interacting with and listening to other men, mostly married men some married for the second or third time I continue to hear the same things about married life and about being married and having kids.
Do you know what I hear? Well the title may have given you a clue. Come on come on that’s it men want to be left alone.
How about that? With Fathers Day approaching I heard some married fathers say that’s what they wanted instead of a gift, just to be left alone for the day. Selfish? maybe but seemingly an easy enough request to be left alone for the day right?
The men however agreed that apparently that was extremely difficult for their spouse and children.
They said invariably the wife and or kids would interrupt their “gift” of him being left alone for some “run of the mill” request or questions. With very little additional prompting the men easily volunteered that their married lives were beset with drama and issues that seemingly were leaving these men with little joy at home.(these same men are animated excited laughing and smiling when talking about their favorite NFL team, politics, books they read, cars they like, boating, sailing, computer or video games, coaching their kids teams and even work etc…
(As an aside these men all seemed like they still had some affection for their spouses(the kids too)though they didn’t exactly say it, it seemed so) I guess the question is then,what do the men mean when they say they want to be left alone?
And Do they really mean they want to be left alone? Well I believe they mean that they should not be overwhelmed continuously by the drama that seems to attach to the married with kids situation.
That they should be given some space when they come in from work.
That they should be respected and treated nicely not as somebody who is just there to give people things and do things for them. That men should be given the time and space to enjoy some passions outside the family.
That they shouldn’t have to argue/fight to go to the game or to golf, fish, the race, or even to have a couple with the guys. I believe that if men received these considerations from the family that they would also be more pleasant more giving thankful and respectful to the wife and kids.
So If I can summarize men want to be left alone Happy Fathers Day and when I said men want to be left alone I wasn’t talking about masturbation again(see the links to articles on masturbation/ carpal tunnel and the benefits in preventing prostate cancer at WWW.OURDATENIGHT.COM.)
Also couples that need to reconnect should check out OURDATENIGHT.COM they are helping to restore the passion in couples who have hit a rut because remember you better watch out what you ask for when you say you want to be left alone. You just may get what you asked for and find yourself Alone for good.
