I think it’s a great thing - I’ve found that openness and honesty about all thing (without oversharing) creates a self-fulfilling feeling of confidence

I often don’t want to discuss it because it makes me feel like less of a man or like like something is wrong with me. But I need to change my way of thinking. Being open, vulnerable, and owning my issues makes me “more of a man” than shying away from conflict and difficult topics because I’m worried what the other person might think.

They’ve usually taken it really well. I’ve usually resorted to saying this doesn’t happen to me often (it does) and they say no problem they’ve experienced it before. Makes me feel better.

I think it’s a hard topic to bring up, especially on one night stands or people who I have just started seeing. It’s often easier to apologize after the fact, with an excuse like ‘I’m tired’ or ‘I’m stressed at work’. But I think lying makes it feel worse. I have a feeling owning it would make both people in the situation more comfortable.
