Went a month without seeing my roommate once. Rent was auto deposited so I figured he must be alive and working since it went through. When he showed back up I asked what happened and he just said “I wanted to see what it would be like to live in the park for a bit.” Bro had spent a month camping in the park. He still went to work but just lived out of a tent the whole time. In his own words, “It wouldn’t have been so bad if it wasn’t for the raccoons.” He refused to elaborate on what the raccoons did.

@@percyross7612 I'd argue that's probably more on the societal changes brought about by smartphones, if not cell phones. Men have always been fairly callous with one another, near as I can tell. It's just that we expect our fellow man to have good judgement of when they need or want help, and to reach out if they do. Smartphones meanwhile have made contact so easy, constant and casual that you don't really need to get together anymore nearly as much as you used to for 'basic' interaction. This is then added onto by the unrelated but equally damaging female romantic interest curve shifting towards delusional. Video games having changed from individual experiences to live service shit also hasn't helped, since that's been turning the average gamer into basically MMO gamers, who have always had... Reduced social interaction, on average.

@@bastil5856 I think it's as much that as the elimination of third spaces. The inability to go somewhere and do something in the community without spending a significant amount of money to do it. Socializing, for those without close friends, tends to center around hobbies. Those hobbies tend to require some level of commitment, financially. The only real in person, adult friends I've made face to face have been made through hockey. A sport I've spent thousands a year on. That's an extreme example, but not highly unusual.

The default assumption is that they are fine, where I think women's default is that something is wrong. Idk if it's because women occupy more of a prey mindset or there is a personality trait that makes the thought pattern look like: "I haven't had any reassurance about the situation, so something must be wrong."

Weirdly I had a similar experience with a girl roommate. Knew her for one month and didn’t even catch her last name-barely even had her first-let alone her phone number before she just vanished in September with no warning. Took me weeks to catch on because she avoided me as much as possible anyways, but not using the washer in that time tipped me off. I knew I gave her my phone number right away but she never used it, nor did I have any of her contact info at all, so I couldn’t check in with her. Seriously considered filing a police report several times, but concluded I didn’t have enough information about this person to fill out the paperwork…I couldn’t even tell them what she looked like aside from being Hispanic, thin, and having long black hair. She had a lot of close friends so I figured her friends would probably know better than me if something bad was up...plus her rent was still being paid. Then the apartment manager knocked on our door a couple weeks after I noticed she was gone and wanted to speak with her and me. Apparently wanted to know if she or I were willing to give her or my bedroom up to someone else. I told him what happened, and they started a month long game of phone tag. By Christmas they told me she spontaneously decided to move out and had surrendered her room and all the stuff she had in it. Even managed to get her signature on some paperwork they sent over email. Conveniently the manager also knew someone in the same building who desperately needed a new place due to a crazy roommate that broke multiple major clauses in their lease. So from 8-5 everyday a whole crew of guys would show up, go into her old room, and walk out with trash bugs full of stuff. I saw the inside before they began and it looked lived-in, with a whole walk-in closet full of clothes and stuff strewn about on the floor, like she’d never left. They spent a while making repairs to the room…then I had a new roommate by New Years. And I moved out a month later. Never could get the front desk or the manager to tell me the full story because of confidentiality. This girl just didn’t want to be found. Living with her was like living with a ghost to begin with, but I’ve never experienced someone disappear in a puff of smoke like that before.

As a guy I can relate to this, and after many relationships with women and now being married for a few years I can say that it makes sense that guys just don't worry like women worry about other people if they haven't heard from them. In my past relationshiops and now with my wife, not a day goes by where my wife doesn't ask me, at least 3-5 times, to do something for her, like grab a thing off of a shelf (that she could get but she's too lazy or whatever) or all the other 50000 things she may ask me to do for her like oil the bicycle chain because "there's a weird sound, what's wrong with it?", while I never ask her for anything I just do everything myself. If I want or need to do someting very trivial for myself I never bother my wife about it because why would i? So as a guy, my mentality is that, other people (or at least other guys), can take care of themselves, so if I don't hear from them in a long time it doesn't mean they're dead. But I assume it's different for women, because generally women seem to not be able to survive on their own without the help of others, so it makes sense that women have this mentality that other people needs checking up on just so see if they're still alive.

(concerned)" No wonder they fantasise about girlfriend who will give them lots of concern and attention, and why they feel so overwhelmed and annoyed when they actually recieve it (they aren't used to it!!) Edit: People below me acting like all men who think this way are bad people or something. But I think this comes down to the way guys are raised to feel like they can't rely on others or show too much care or worry - they're told to "man up", which means no supporting others or being supported. So what we have are a bunch of men who's ability to show care for others or themselves is forcibly unlearned, and then we have women who are forcibly taught to bear every emotional burden, be highly empathetic and concientious and worry about everything for everyone. Of course so many relationships aren't healthy under these conditions! But how can I comepletely blame men for acting the way they do in said unhealthy relationships when they've so clearly been mentally and emotionally sabotaged? In much the opposite way that most women are sabotaged, even! And it all feels very much like a horrible set up for both of us.

[@dickbiggum]

Nah man, as a unloved child who grew up into a man the only love needed is self love. If a man feels unloved he needs to check himself. To seek emotional validation from someone else is against the man code. YOU are responsible for YOUR emotions. So no my friends and I go days weeks or years without talking or checking in and its perfectly normal. The love is the same regardless of how often we speak or see. It's as if we never left each other's company. This culture of emotional validation from others is gross and anti masculine.

I had the weekend off, so I told him if he wanted company, I had some "fun money" tucked away that I would use to get geared up. I told him, "I'd rather do something dangerous with you, and wind up in a bad spot with you, than find out a week later you sprained an ankle on a mountain and died of dehydration or something, and spend the rest of my life thinking 'if only I went with him' ". Bro broke down and told me the trip was so he could self delete. He didn't take that trip. We hung out every day that weekend. --continued--- I had a girlfriend of, a little over 2 years; she had/has an eating dis-order. Twice while I was with her, she was admitted to the hospital due to her health, and her doctor told her, basically, at the pace she was going, she could be months away from organ failure. Back and forth, back and forth, she went from stages of recovery back to the start. She'd started off great, and had herself admitted to an in-house recovery program. She couldn't handle it, and she'd find ways to fight with me, and I'd just do what the therapist suggested. "Play the 5 senses game, give her patience and support, and help her to eat - Something". She left me, and I was broken, and sitting alone, and He Showed Up and said, "grab your stuff, you're spending the night and we're watching Gurren Lagan".

Some men get married and still havn't. I have 3 roommates, I only know if they're home based on if their cars are out front...sometimes 2 of them go on trips together 3-5 days gone. "Missing" is exactly the word, if I were worried about them. They keep showing back up, though. They're adults, and honestly, if they did fully go missing, not shit I can do about it. I work opposite shifts as most of them, any of them could be missing for 5+ days before I decided I didn't think they were around and that I should send them a text to see if they would be back in time to pay rent.

I experienced the culture shock in reverse so many times. “Why do you keep asking where I am, or was? Why do you need my freakin’ plan of events for the day? Are you trying to control me? What is going on here? Of course I am still alive!! What are you thinking?!? Do people routinely just die in your world, as a matter of daily course?”

I didn't get it either until my gf made me watch the ID channel with her for a half hour.

[@fivemoreminutespleas]

I mean I only tolerated living with a roommate so she could call 911 if I went missing or collapsed. If I didn’t want someone casually looking out for me in case of an emergency, I can live alone and not have to worry about the cleaning schedule or noise considerations.

[@teorossi8264]

Cause a lot of women gotta give their friends their location and updates constantly just so they know she didn't get kidnapped or assaulted or something 😭 I guess when you don't gotta think about it all the time that's not your first conclusion when someone goes missing for a couple of days Like how often is it standard for women (and other vulnerable demographics tbh) to give their location if they're going on a first date, or to set times to send updates so their friends know to call the cops if they don't say anything? Not everybody does these things but they're definitely techniques I've come across more than once, and they're not the only ways I've seen people try to stay safe

[@nuzzlepuff9162]

I honestly hadn't thought about the fact that men don't really NEED to do that. Like it's not that likely to happen to them. Us girls tho gotta stay on guard and stick together 24/7.

[@jeremiahdavis8590]

Yeah, i've done this as a man too. It's definitely not a woman thing. it's simply about the location that you're going to. Not all locations are the safest for anyone including men.

[@zennloo7343]

​@@nuzzlepuff9162not a fan of actual crime statistics are you? If anybody should be worried about being murdered or violently assaulted, statistically it's men. Men have less risk aversion. It's a biological difference.

[@JustaFellowNerd]

yeah… a couple weeks ago, a corpse was discovered inside an apartment in one of the most crowded cities in Vietnam. The person died 2 years ago, without anyone noticing, zero missing report was filed, nobody raised any concerns, no nothing. They have been lying there, dead on the sofa for 2 years, rotten away until some strangers accidentally found them. There are news about it in English btw, u can look it up if needed. what im trying to say is ppl have lives to live, but it never hurts to check on ur loved ones every once in a while 😅 Edit: guys, with all due respect, it’s *every once in a while* , which means occasionally/ from time to time. Y’all can check up on them how often u want, idc, everyone has their own schedule, do what you deem suitable instead of repeatedly replying ppl have lives to live
