Before a man will open up to you, he needs to see that you can handle his vulnerability. It's not about how much he loves you, it's about how much he trusts you with his emotions.
Many women unknowingly destroy this trust with their words. A man shares a personal struggle with you, and in the heat of an argument, you throw it back at him as a weapon.
Men don’t talk because they fear their vulnerability will be mishandled, misunderstood, or even mocked. They can be vulnerable with friends because of a judgment-free environment.
If a man senses that his honesty will be used against him or that his vulnerability will lead to criticism, he will withdraw.
