If you’ve ever observed men hanging out together, you’ll immediately get the impression that they talk to each other about everything. But surprise, surprise, here are 12 things that every man has done at least once but will never confess to his buddies:
Cried During a Movie
When you watch TV shows, the only people you’ll see crying during movies are women. This is because society has come to believe that men are stoic and their emotions do not get the best of them… at least as far as crying is concerned. Here’s the deal, though: that your composed guy friend?
Yeah, he’s cried while seeing a movie before. This shouldn’t be surprising after all; men also have emotions, and they can be moved by a powerful cinematic moment. Still, a man would rather chew rocks than admit to his friends that he cried during a movie.
Taken Part In a Gossip Session
Here’s a revelation for you: men talk! That’s right, even that quiet friend of yours who always seems to be uninterested in every conversation happening around him. In fact, it will surprise you to know that men actually enjoy gossiping more than women. Will they admit it? Absolutely not!
Tried To Catwalk
Men may not always show it, but they are usually captivated by a perfect catwalk when a woman executes this move in their vicinity. They are so captivated by this movement that every man has tried to see if he can work it out in the privacy of his room. Some have even tried to do it more than once. Now, this isn’t something to be ashamed of, but it isn’t exactly the sort of mental image any man wants to leave his friends with.
Used Grooming Products
Usually, when you hear of someone buying a skincare or haircare product, you immediately think it’s a woman. But what you probably don’t know is that men also use grooming products too. In fact, some men are so intentional about their grooming that they own and have tried many of these products. However, it’s generally believed that it’s unmanly to pay meticulous attention to grooming. So, a conversation on best grooming products is something you’re not likely to ever stumble upon men discussing.
Body Insecurities
What? Did you really think that women are the only ones who have insecurities about their bodies? Well, think again! Men are under constant pressure from society to appear calm and confident like they have it all figured out. The truth is they don’t. Many a man has looked at himself in the mirror and wondered how he let himself go like that or why he has started going bald.
Dance Practice
Have you ever seen a guy admit to anyone that he can’t dance? You’d be hard-pressed to find even one instant when a man openly admitted that he doesn’t know how to dance. You know why? They take private dance lessons.
At some point, every man was worried enough about his dance skills that he shut the door and started taking YouTube lessons. Don’t believe it? Ask your guy friends, but be prepared for many non-answers in return.
Experienced Performance Anxiety
Think about it: the ideal picture of a man is that he’s confident and bold and delivers with precision. However, what your guy friends won’t tell you is that they’ve also experienced performance anxiety at some point. They just cover it all up with a lot of bluster. The particular scenario may differ, ranging from in the bedroom to during a presentation, but every man has gone through this at least once before.
Used a Dating App
Guys expect guys to be able to get “the” girl and have an active social life without having to resort to using a dating app. Men who use dating apps are usually viewed as wimps or failures in their circle. So it’s no surprise that this is a topic that’ll never come up between guys, no matter how close they are.
Played With Makeup
No one really knows whether it’s just harmless curiosity or something more, but every guy with access to makeup has tried it on at least once. Here’s something even more amusing: did you know that guys often fantasize about how hot they’ll look if they were ladies? Crazy right?
Seen a Romantic Movie and Loved It
The average man appears to only have eyes for movies that are high-octane and full of a lot of action. However, secretly, every man is a sucker for a good romantic film. In fact, they usually have a secret list of romantic movies they enjoy watching and plan to watch.
Written Love Letters
This is another quite amusing quirk that guys have. Most men believe that if you want to profess love, you should do it face to face, “like a man.” But it will interest you to know that some of these self-proclaimed alpha males have actually crafted live messages to express their emotions before. That said, no matter how you look at it, this isn’t a topic for guy conversation.
Cried After a Breakup
Hollywood would have you believe that men don’t cry after breakups. They may drink a lot and become morose, but they never cry. Yeah, that’s not true. Every man has had a breakup so bad that he really slobbered all over the place. Some even went beyond this and did some pretty embarrassing stuff. Not that they’ll ever admit it to anyone though.
