No offense to any men on here but, it seems to me that when a man isn't sure how to rectify his wrong doings, he runs instead and tries to "start all over". Then, with the more egotistical macho men, they have too much pride and ego to ever even admit that they are wrong even if they know deep down they're all messed up. Then, you have the selfish men that will cheat, blame you and justify it cause you weren't "there for them" or "giving them what they need" and in most cases, that's impossible because they're too high maintenance, and then when you get upset about their crappy ways, they just leave rather than change their bad behavior. In all of the above cases, it's a matter of emotional immaturity and lack of growth.
Then you have the emotionally matured men that will actually sit down and say "How can we fix this. Let's come up with a compromise." Typically, with these kind of men, they are not selfish, they do not cheat, they don't lie much etc. They know how to love and they know how to give of themselves in every way. Unfortunately, these men are rare these days. Lol.
